My Ride: 2006 550i
Build date 11/2005
options include:
cold weather package/ convenience package/premium sound package/ sport package/sunshades/Navigation/ V3 cradle/ OE 166 wheels/M-tech upgrade/M rear spoiler/ racemesh m-tech grill/racemesh kidney grills/M5 mirrors/M5 steering wheel/ HID fog light conversion/ M5 SMG paddles
Touareg got an update too...our family just sold our v8 full load VW Touareg and miss it...8000lbs tow capacity in an SUV that size (and it towed our 4500lbs boat with us barely feeling it on the back!). Appointments like a full blown luxury vehicle. It was identicle to the Porchse in every way - the Cayanne even has many VW stamped parts. After all, they were co-developed by the same group of engineers...
The only thing they didnt co-develop was the price point! Touareg in a feature to feature comparison will be about 30% less cost...of course if you're looking for the twin turbo option there is no comparison

hmmmm...I had the current cayenne and loved the looks. Maybe It would take time before the new looks grows on me. I bet it feels and drives like a beast though. For the cayenne haters, NO X5 or ML (except the 63AMG) can ever keep up with one either in straight line or corners.
