Thanks! We're glad you like it :-)

Doug is pretty detailed too

Glad it was helpful!

Thanks Ken! Appreciate it. It's a great car - it's solid AF and feels competent on the road :-D

Thanks, mate! Appreciate it.

CarExpert can you do a reliability review on the new cayennes, suspension design, , may be raise it on a hoist and show some details , etc

No problem 👍

Thanks man!

Love that Lava Orange! I drove a Turbo S in that colour in Germany last year and it turns heads!

When I was younger, people often spoke about people buying a car “for the badge” and at the time I assumed luxury cars were nicer versions of mainstream cars, better in every way - it didn’t make sense to me - if it was better, what was wrong with getting it and surely it wouldn’t be about the badge as it’s a plain better car. Now that I’ve seen things like this over the years, especially in a position to fully research and decide between an entry level Audi vs a fully specced out Mazda/Skoda for similar pricing, still favouring the latter. Yes the luxury car usually drives better but mainstream cars are truly catching up with every generation - but I also can’t deny there is brand value in a badge. While a $130k car will drive better than a $30k car, this is to be expected with that extra $100k overhead, and no feature on a cheaper car should be optional. It does point to brand value that they think they aren’t on the same playing field, and that within VAG Group someone will pick a VW over a Skoda, a Audi over a VW, a Porsche over an Audi (or BMW) and in that way they don’t truly have to be competitive to “lesser” brands. A Skoda Octavia Limited Ed has things for a third of the price (Matrix LED headlights, heated, ventilated, electric, massage front seats, multicolour ambient lighting, rear seat 3rd climate zone and heated rear seats with sunshades, wireless CarPlay, wireless Android Auto, full digital cockpit) that will cost more than the entire price of the Skoda to option on an already $150k base price Porsche, really boggles my mind.

Thanks for the feedback, Adams. We'd love to extend the testing, but it would eat up more of our time. We will try and include a paint thickness test as well for something different.

Good points all round, @Car Mojo! The piano black is hard to keep clean and a little frustrating to deal with. Brake sizing on SUVs is hard work, especially when they stick big wheels like on this car. The brakes end up looking small despite being comparatively huge!

Thanks for the comment! Yes, the Sport Response button is a kind of overboost. It just reduces any lag on throttle applications.

Me too - standard across the Porsche range as well :_D

A lot of people think the same way! You can't go past a proper 911 :_D

You're right, Peter! Very interesting observation. The Kodiaq RS we tested recently (www.carexpert.com.au/review/2020-skoda-kodiaq-rs-review/) had felt lined door pockets and felt lined everything now that I think of it!

Very true! They still do it because people pay, so they'll get away with it while they can.

It’s probably the thing with the VW group. Even with the Touareg now you can add options worth upto 30k on a premium version. To be honest you’d wish all those options when you are thinking of buying these 😛

They'd be a steal second hand!

It's sad how much $$$ we have to pay in Oz, when UAE, USA, Europe all the vehicles are 1/2 the price we must shell out

😅 Ha ha, that would be interesting to see!

Interesting! The coupe is actually marginally heavier than the regular Cayenne, FYI.

Great feedback, Edgar. You're right on the design front! It's very subjective :-D and agree with piano black. The stuff is insanely hard to keep clean. Not sure why manufacturers keep using it!

Agreed! Thought it would be higher.

Very true!

😢

Some of the gear should definitely be standard!

Porsche aint looking for broke motherfuckers

You just can’t afford it... hence your sour comment...

@@edwill1595 i can only afford a Suzuki Swift, but I can salivate over an exotic European. I can look at Charlize Theron without picking faults. Unattainable, yeah, but desirable

Shart your mouth
