      Yes, the video is in German. If you can get past that, it is pretty good and worth watching as they drag race the X5 M vs. the Cayenne turbo, (skip to 2:47). The X5 M gets a jump on the Cayenne Turbo yet the Cayenne still pulls past it up top. They are pretty evenly matched despite the X5 M having a power advantage on paper but the current Cayenne is much lighter. The X5 M's weight simply works against it. We must say, Porsche did the smart thing working to make the Cayenne lighter.

        The cayenne is such a better vehicle, in all aspects.

        MKL63 traps like 107, it would put up a decent fight but lose.

        The Cayenne is a sweet ride. I would still get the E70 X5 M with G-Power Typhoon aero kit.

        The X5 M is sweet but the Cayenne is now the better drivers car being lighter. Arouind a track, I think the Cayenne would win.

        Got to appreciate the cayenne turbo

        loses barely to a c4s on a tight small track
