+1. The X5/X6M is all about power and balls out fast. I was fully expecting the Cayenne to beat out the X5M but damn, that's one fast car. 0-60 in 4 seconds for a 5000+ pound vehicle.

Besides, the Cayenne isn't the best looking Porsche. The interior leaves something to be desired. Aside from the instrument cluster, the rest of the interior doesn't transfer over well and should only be used in Porsche's smaller lineup. I would never buy any of these performance SAV's but I'd take the X5M over any of the competition.
