The new headlights give me the impression that it's obviously angry at something. But the last thing we need is an angry driver in a huge 4WD! hahaha The Cayenne for me will never be a true Porsche but i do accept that fact that it had to be born out of necessity. Porsche was struggling financially with only the Boxster and 911 in its lineup. But now with the funds Porsche has accumulated from tapping into the lucrative SUV market, they can now make their 911 line-up even greater and produce new and better products like the Panamera and Cayman. Well that's what i think. The Cayenne will still ugly no matter how many facelifts it gets. The new headlights give me the impression that it's obviously angry at something.

I like Cayenne very much, but unfortunately, this poor SUV is listed in The World's Worst Cars (by Craig Cheetam). The 2003 Cayenne claims to be a Porsche, but the vehicle has almost everything the same as the Touareg including the interior design and built platform, despite it has the Porsche badge on it. Hope that the improved engine and the addition of new technologies will set the Cayenne's handling and performance to a higher level, or else the production of 2007 Cayenne will be a multi-million dollar disaster for sure.

Only few lucky people manage to buy Porsche in Malaysia including Dato' Mokhzani.

Maybe its really not supposed to sell more than the Tuoareg, cos Cayenne is supposed to be higher end... tht said, i dun think its a flop cos it sells pretty well, esp in the U.S... and am pretty sure it meets porsche's expectations... and yeah... u see MANY this close to Rm1mil ride on our roads.... definately more than Range Rovers.... and i'll go "waahhh... so many rich people ah in this country!" but then again.. i'd still pick the X5 over the Cayenne anyway cos yeah, the cayenne is just so PLAIN! satriaGuy..

Still as awkward as ever. The main reason for the facelfit as the embarassment that the cheaper VW Touareg (of which had the same platform) was getting more sales than the high performance Cayenne.
