Nice! Looks like quite the trip in. Parked next to a cayenne, X5 looks much better IMO. But I may also be bias since I don't have a cayenne of my own to park next too lol

To be fair that Cayenne looks to be the previous generation.. The current gen looks more modern and sharper.

Yeah the Porsche Cayenne GTS all blacked out looks incredible. But again, since I don't own one ,and wouldn't be able to afford one at this stage in life, x5 all the way lol

I agree but I'm still not a fan of Porsche front ends...especially that 4 LED headlight square...it looks toyish imo. Overall, I think Porsche rear, side and stance profiles are hot AF but their front ends, not so much. I get that they're trying to maintain the classic Porsche look, but I'm just not a fan of that front for their SUVs.

Yes, it is my friend's 2011 Cayenne S. He has 2019 Cayenne Turbo on factory order with deposit down, but they cannot even give him estimated month of delivery .

Haha yup. I did see a few post regarding 50i needs oil refill once in a while so I don't worry much. It is actually my second time. First one was in January. Then I brought the car in for scheduled maintenance in March, that included an oil change. And then this top up.

I always carry 2 litres with me but haven't had a chance to use it. Two times happened when I am about 4km away from the dealership.

It does a great job at hiding it lol. Super happy with how quickly the water slides right off of it. Basically drys itself

Somebody had to clean up nice for this wedding. X5 is in the body shop. Should get it back next week. $15k worth of repairs for what seemed pretty minor. Exhaust is going to be painted black and the body shop said they would take care of my front reflectors for me. In the mean time I have an x1 as a rental.. I sure miss my x5. What a poorly laid out vehicle
