$75K? 0-60 7.2? I'd look for a discounted Cayenne turbo..

WHOA for $75k? that's a rip off, no thanks, I'll go buy a Jeep SRT8 and invest rest of the money, they'll have same depreciation rate anyways.

they are talking about high performance SUVs.
even compare to the X5 4.8IS, this thing is slooooooooooooooow the Cheyenne Turbo is like airplane compare to this thing, for the price I expect it to be much faster, here's the sad thing, it probally has same interior feeling to a Jeep Cherokee, and possibily more glitches than a Jeep. Now, for the money, the only one in my opinion that I'm willing to shell out the money that I don't have is the Cheyenne, you are actually getting what you are paid for, nothing less or more.

This baby is nice looking, very sporty and handsome. I guess I would go for this over the GX, but a modded Cayenne Turbo (maybe 1 yr preowned) would get the nod over it (450hp SUV with lots of hp adding potential ownz me).
I have to agree, the 'Pepper is a ugly ducking bone stock, but god it looks good modded

i'd still buy a Range Rover Sport.
cayenne can't off-road like a RRS. and given it's massive size and weight--it's more like a SUV.
when i buy a SUV, i want a SUV....not a lifted performance sedan.
