To me...the Cayenne GTS makes no sense...the GTS label screams "race bred" but on an SUV? To me it seems ludicrous...but it sold like hot cakes...
What ru gonna do?

As an X6 owner I have to chime in and say it's a perfect SUV/SAV for my needs. I find it amusing when I read people with such a "bigger is better" mentality and criteria.
As a resident of NYC, it's perfect for day to day (and weekend) needs of a young couple. If I need to haul more than can fit in it, it's time to call the moving company. Though I did drive away from a furniture floor sample sale with a love seat, lamps and chairs recently. Otherwise I see no sense in getting a full size SUV for the one day a year I may need the extra capacity.
With a 4.4 liter twin turbo V8, you're at 100 without knowing or feeling it, it's that smooth, even with its wide tires. It's a really tight car with a lot of power, and great performance (without even mentioning its weight or class) while doing its best as an SUV aerodynamically.
So I prefer these shapes (though not the GT's) to the "functional" boxy. If you merely judge by cubic feet of cargo, get a GMC
But since Porsche already makes an SUV, I have no problem at all with a sleek greenhouse. I simply think of it as the fat being trimmed, and more true to the shape a Porsche should have.

Dive your in good health! I would ban all SUVs - to hard to see around in a 911
