So I'm looking for a used suv thats still fun and/looks good. Im considering a 2004 Porsche Cayenne Turbo ,Cayenne S (2004-2006), Cayenne 2008, Jeep SRT-8 (wooot fast), Range Rover Sport or maybe a ML 350. Any opinions from you guys? Or any suggestions of any other suvs? Currently I'm feeling the Cayenne Turbo 450hp but read that the cayenne might not be very reliable esp the turbo.. Any opinions, suggestions or advice? ?

I really like the SRT-8 Jeep...don't care for the Range Rover much...I freaking LOVE the Mercedes GL 320 CDI (diesel) Has really good towing power and the Diesel is fuel efficient and the car is SO much fun to drive even for it's size. I just love the car!

It's pretty throwable for it's size...although it feels like I've almost flipped it already...When your doing a quick U-Turn and the Diesel turbo kicks in it hauls ass Such a fun car! But yea SRT-8 is SICK and with the new Jeep hitting the markets...the prices should drop a bit more.

Have you considered getting a diesel X5? It is supposed to be pretty great on fuel and hauls major ass - especially, if you chip it

Good luck with whatever you get though

The X6 is too pricey for me currently lol and no to x5 diesel, i think its mostly gonna be a used cayenne turbo cause its not too large of a suv and it handles well and has power plus the badge lol i plan to mod it different bodykit, power upgrades, etc
