Porsche Cayenne: Test drive report

Here's a nice test drive report about the Porsche Cayenne from Canada.

Five.
Hundred.
Horsepower!
In a sport utility.
A Porsche Cayenne Turbo.

Read the above five lines aloud. That’s about the time it takes one of these things to get from zero to 100 km/h, to go from a dot on the horizon to an in-your-face, get-outta-the-way 2008 version of blitzkrieg.

The 2008 Cayenne Turbo carries a tougher, even more no-nonsense look to go with its increase in horsepower. The second generation has been given a new face with a new headlight design, but that doesn’t hide its heritage. It’s spent some time in the gym and hit the road with a more muscular, more sculpted body. But that doesn’t hide its attitude.

It may be carrying four people and their gear. It may be carrying just two people and even more gear. But it will hunt down your little sports car in a hurry.
