Default Touareg body kit**May induce vomiting**
Man, I am NOT feeling this!! The back looks lika an xA in the first pic. Is it just me or does the bottom pic look like a giant Golf.

LOL!

Certainly craps up a clean design that, to me, looks significantly better than a Cayenne!

Looks okay to me. I'm sure someone will clean it up a bit.

Why would anyone buy an SUV of ANY kind only to slam, and add a body kit with extravagant ground effects that looks like it should have a MATTEL logo somewhere . . .

I guess I'm missing the point, but I thought the purpose of an SUV with all of the weight, height, and handling penalties involved was some (if limited) off road ability. Why would anyone with delusions of a performance image start with a tall, tippy truck with the aero characteristics of a barn. OK, I guess Porsche started it with the Cayenne . . .

it might be an SUV but if you ever drove 1 you realize quickly that it's a lifted car and can hang with and pass many of the sedans on the road, SUV's are not trucks anymore they are so similiar to cars it's crazy.

So it has 4wd/awd and a bigger engine, cars are no light weight so whats another 1000 or 1500lbs on a vehicle called an SUV
