I think its ok! Besides the option of a V-12 with 400 horsepower!!!! But whats going on here? Who the hell needs a fast *** SUV? SUV's are for hauling, and for families! Who needs 400hp in a SUV? Just for someone who can go fast and crash, killing other people, and they walk out fine!

I bet they will make a pick up truck with that chassis! All the American boys think cars are slow and their pick up are fast.

This project is definately a go, as it will also be the new SUV from VW also. . . The VW version just won't get the good suspension or engines.

THE PORSCHE 4 X 3 ?

It looks like they had a little trouble at the test track. The release states..."Here's an obstacle Porsche's new Cayenne off-roader couldn't get over! Test drivers panicked when a top-secret prototype lost a wheel at Germany's Nürburgring.
The V8-powered 4x4 was being put through its paces on the legendary race track, but under hard cornering one of the huge alloys came adrift and bounced into the scenery. And as the testers waited for a recovery vehicle, our snapper was able to get clear shots of the stricken car – including its now-exposed air suspension system. This will allow the ride height to be raised according to road conditions, as well as limiting body roll and improving refinement.....http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/otash/n...eg&w=693&h=301

Yeah we are trying to get our 4 door family car to go faster but this is a SUV! Also the X5 4.4 litre is not faster then our cars! My neighbour has one and trust me we can beat it! His car is really slow. He lost to a ford probe! and the probe only has exhaust work and intake.
