I am very interested to get one! Maybe you can take me out for a quick spin next time?!

But buying a second car still not possible for at the moment sadly.

thought the whole idea of suv is to have a bigger car than the rest of the population, it does mean the driver needs to drive faster than the others.

I am more than happy to take you out next time for a quick spin. There is no comparison between the 993 & bimmer. Put it that way, if I only have 1 kid, I will just keep the 993 as my family car. I am glad that I've chosen 993 and not 355 as it is more practical (2+2), cheaper to maintenance, easy to drive around town, & the most important, affordable.

Mark it was because u were in it!!! saying that i weigh like 200lbs now so we are weigh the same.

the basic Cayenne is rated in 200 RbP (rickshaw brake power)

how about the new 6 series convertible? he can lift the baby out each time.

but it kinda looks like a 2 door F10 without the roof.

I drove a Touraeg up Garden Road one time and am pretty sure it shares similar/same base engine?

It was SOOOOOOOOOO under powered. I had my foot to the floor and it wasnt even moving up the hill!!!

Given he has spent tremendous time & money, I think he will never sell it, or put it in another word, you cannot afford it.

... because it makes the driver feel the car is faster even though it isnt, the most important thing is that it makes the buyer happy (but not me)
