My wife has determined that we need an SUV in the house. My job over the next 10 months or so it to dissuade her from that idea OR convince her to drive the 'family SUV'. Unfortunately, that wouldn't get me too far as our other daily car is not an R8.

R8 Spyder is on my list unless I find a (more practical) 997TT Cab, so all is not lost.


Yes, stop by if you're in our neck of the woods.. we aren't too bad in person

 

Cayenne Turbo, why not, it's the ultimate SUV.

 

It's not the ultimate SUV.

Please re-read my other posts on this thread. Overpriced, pure and simple.

My X5 is quicker, carries more, has (much) better nav/stereo, cost $35K less and doesn't make me look away from the front side:

 

Haha this is true, if you have an X5, why are you getting an SUV? Or is it just time or you to replace it?

 

I (already) daily an X5M.

That SUV was my recommendation for the best daily under $100K - at least where I live and how I drive.

 

Oh so your wife didn't want a new one, she just wanted you to keep te one you have. Right?

 

uber curious

 

I just bought her a 550ix. I've been driving SUV's (as daily drivers) for 10 years. She said I have enough cars (that's true, but besides the point) so I should have to drive the family SUV (poor me). As stated, we need an SUV in the family. I'm hoping that by the time my lease is off the X5, she'll warm up to the idea of driving the family SUV and I can at least get back into a sedan (the 550ix). It wouldn't make any sense to buy 'another daily' as we have that covered.

 

Alright, well good luck. Haha
