sduford Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 I think the Cayenne is downright ugly, so I don't care how fast it is. Yep, but I would buy one anyway if I had that kind of money to put on a car. But then again, I might buy three Outbacks instead Sylvain www.digitalfotographer.com - Audi Q5 Club - MB-GLK Club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c_hunter Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Agreed....I have a feeling the turbo would have slowly walked away from the LGT. Not so sure about that -- I recall hearing that the Forester XT was slightly faster than a Cayenne turbo, so the LGT would have to be faster too.

SBT Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Just my opinion and some experience with the cars in play; equal drivers, stock tuning, equal conditions, etc as a baseline. Different gearing in the FXT - read faster off the line - would pull harder on the Cayenne but at about 90-100 or so, the Cayenne Turbo would rip past the FXT which would be basically boosted out by that point. WRT the LGT, off the line would not be as quick, but it would maintain a lead on the Cayenne until 100-110 then the Cayenne Turbo would start to seriously walk the LGT. Don't get me wrong the LGT would still have some boosted legs at that point, just not much more running room before it runs out of go. Back on topic though, since the Cayenne initiated the fun "run", and you walked it = kill in my book.

3.7L H6 Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Not really much of a point after 100mph IMO. If you're racing on the streets over 100, that's a bit excessive, isn't it? Silly drags and little races in town seem more of a judge of talent than a straight on drag past 100. Hell, it's just put your foot down and steer in those Cayennes. Nothing like putting a pretty-Porsche-boy down in your half-price Subie!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
