    I have 850 miles on mine now, curious to hear your impressions when you have a few miles

    Nice
    I tracked it a few weeks ago. I am coming from a G63

    The 707 is just ridiculous

    What do you think after 850 miles ?

    Not as immediate and surgical as the Cayenne Turbo GT, but louder.
    Nice alternative to the Porsche, a level lower than an Urus.
    Great unique exterior.
    Command system is a deal breaker, infuriating nearly every single drive.
    Have had some quality issues (seat, window) that I cannot easily get fixed.
    Will be trading in for the new Urus in a few months.

    Sorry to hear
    I’m not a fan of the urus look or the people in miami who typically have them

    I loved my G, longest I had a car. Hopefully I don’t have the quality issues here that I didn’t have there

    I agree on the tech, it’s garbage, but tech isn’t that big of a deal for me

    This is basically a bad weather car for me. She. Weather permits I’ll either drive a Porsche or Ferrari, so it’s a nice change

    Agree, if you dont need to use the system at all, the suv is certainly doable. I had to switch out to all season tires given the rain/snow/cold here and it does admirably well.

    So good to use this tank for intended conditions. I think the winter tires transform it completely.

    @dustman any updates on your urus. I guess lambo is now stopping production of all the carbon fiber parts (hood and roof) which IMO is needed to justify the price bump on the performante so my performante order is now on hold (maybe indefinitely unless they lift the carbon fiber embargo). As such I have my S order in for summer although it’s probably a stupid move to swap out my 2022 since the performance and interior are pretty similar from what I can tell. I guess lambo is now focusing on the 2025 hybrid urus?

    My intent was to keep either the S or Perf, most likely the S as it will ride better as a DD where I live. S is due early summer I believe. The performance of the Perf version seems a bit lacking based on some of the video reviews ie relative to the Cayenne Turbo GT.

    Picked this up to try for a while: Macan GTS in Volcano/Tan. First impression…it’s a Porsche, which is comforting after the DBX frustrations.
    Special guests photo bombed the background.

    @dustman looking like urus performante is a bit of a bust and even more parts are restricted so I’m probably going to bail. My s is set for production in may/june but I also put my order in for the new 2024 Turbo GT. Getting my dealers first allocation also in june. Now if I could only find a raptor R build that’s not 50k over sticker

    Gotta say, as I’ve gotten used to the 707, I like it more and more

    Agreed on Perf. Not sure what they were thinking. I’m going to keep the S.
    My local Ford dealer offered Raptor r for $20 over fwiw.
    turbo GT Porsche Cayenne? I didn’t like mine relative to non coupe version, esp on 23” wheels and extreme tires. Made the ride terrible as a DD, but depends where you live too. IIRC mine had no panoramic, no heated wheel, missing several other features I’d come to enjoy. That and harsh, harsh ride even compared to 707 which was pretty compliant.

    And the build quality over Tesla is astoundingly better.

    Please post the photo in a different format. I’d like to see it. For whatever reason, it doesn’t come up on my iPhone.
