The Cayenne Turbo has a high centre of gravity that "it's sub-optimal for the street." Off road the rest of the vehicle is not really designed for off road hence it is a compromise.
No 4x4 off roader will out-corner a saloon or hot hatch and defiantly not when it verses one with hyroactive suspension."A people that elect corrupt politicians, imposters, thieves and traitors are not victims, but accomplices," George OrwellComment

Nice motors. One of my neighbours has one in black. I wasn't sold on it initially, but having seen it a few times, I have to say it does have presence.Rule #76: No excuses. Play like a champion.Comment

Milan.
I recommend the Ultima GTR, flat out down the Edgware road, around Marble Arch (sideways) before straightening up for Park Lane... what a blast.Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment
