In genral,its a good looking car. But the rear leg room was abit disappointed as they were marketing it between the A6 and A8. Having have that it still offer a good amount of leg room like in our 5er.

The car sits pretty low for a saden, the interior is nice just like in a5 but again i expect abit more than that. The performance amazed me the most tho. It will sprint to 100km just in 5.4sefrom its 3.0 supercharged engine. It will have the new quattro system aswell which split the power to 70:30 (rear:front) most of the time.

The price is abt 880k hkd after new tax applied. Overall the car is nice but just remind you a5 is half of the price and it offers pretty much the same in most aspects.

How much is PCCB for Cayanne? Is it necessary to fit PCCB in a everyday car?

I saw it today too at OT
I love the car alot but I think the front seats is abit small for my dad.
yes the 3.0 is very good but at a price, I got the price list today and it is $932,700 before discount. The finel price is $862,700 for the 3.0
2.8 is $753,040 before discount, after is $733,040 but 2.8 is not worth it because it only has 204hp for a 2.8L.
Both engines 2.8 and 3.0 come with 20" wheels, front and rear parking camera.

I also saw the A5 which Is nice too but it is much smaller, I like this more because it engine is so good.
2.0L with 211hp and the best thing is 350Nm at 1500rpm
BMW F10 is less (258 hp) in the BMW 528i 310Nm
BMW need to do more work on catching up with audi engines
also the A5 2.0 TFSI quattro is within my price range at $530,878 before discount.
looks like A5 or the Tesla Models S will be my next car.
No F10 for me unless they do a very good deal like my LCI

after taking out the tax, probably cost jsut a little more than say brembo big brakes? but consider this, ccb was only available in super cars and now they are available in cars in the 1m range. hopefully soon they will be available to mid range cars.

guess not, but then again, the same argument probably applies to most mods.
