Well, to be fair I’m not one of those guys who spends that kind of cash on a car. While I make more than enough to buy whatever I am also a cheap bastard and tend to buy used Toyotas. My “exciting” car is a used Chevy Volt, which is also a car people just love to hate for no real reason. But nevertheless I am already

Their initial reasoning was pretty much “ me too!” probably because they saw everyone else getting into the SUV game, thus why not graft the front of a Porsche onto a VW Toureg? To be fair GM did the same thing initially with the Cadillac Escalade: it was a barely disguised, rebadged Suburban.

I’m sure some folks felt that the Pontiaz Aztek was great looking too.

That was sort of my point. Porsche probably saw SUV sales in the US and wanted some of that money.... so might as well graft a Porsche to the front of a VW and call it a day ( the first Porsche SUV was pretty much that ) and lo and behold, I suppose they made the right choice. Still ugly looking SUVs though...

I did. The whole time I did so various people along the way snickered.

I’m surely not the only one here who thinks these things are god-awful looking. Every time I see one I do the mental equivelant of rolling my eyes. To me it cheapened the brand. But if they sell the shit-ton out of them then so be it. If this were the 80's who knows? Maybe they would’ve sold a lot of Porsche

You response was even dumber. Still an ugly ass looking turd that sells to socccer moms in the burbs’ everywhere.

I did and I also anticipated your rather clever response.

No, I don’t own a Porsche, but I hate Porsche SUVs. So much of the idea of a Porsche being an SUV screams of “Me too!” pouring from their corporate board room. Sorry but they simply look bizzare and not in a cool, artsy way either, but more in the realm of El Caminos and 70's conversion vans. The front end looks like

While I don’t place much faith in the intelligence of the typical GOP politician they surely realize that at this point their seats are in jeapordy. Just yesterday a report came out showing that upwards of 40% of all senators and congressmen reported a sharp uptick in calls from constituents demanding Trump’s

Its amazing how fast the prices came down on LEDs too. Seems that just a year or so ago they were $5-$7 each. I bought a 6 pack of them at Home Depot last month for $12. Furthermore, unlike CFLs which tend to produce a lot of heat in the base which houses the small electronics board- meaning the electrolytic

I have always really disliked Trump and have been cringing ever since he won. But these days I’m totally over it. He needs to either step down, get impeached or otherwise discontinue being the President. Its like having a goddamned bull running in a china shop and with every passing day more and more damage is being

Trump is justa big troll. Yes. Do the worst possible shit on a nearly daily basis in order to please his shrinking base of batshit supporters. The guy seriously cannot get impeached fast enough.

I live in California in an older 60's neighborhood. When we first bought the house I thought it was weird that nobody had a lawn. Instead the lawns were covered with rocks, sand and various cactus and other desert type plants. There is one, maybe two lawns with actual grass but even though the owners water the shit

The amount of “hazing” here is insane and more or less outright physical abuse. Sure- sometimes workplaces that are male dominated will have some sort of ritual of initiation but there’s a difference between that and the awful things this young man endured. When I was younger I worked at a lumber yard. The “hazing” we

Oh- and BTW, VW, Mercedes and BMW all have massive factories in the US. Ironically the largest BMW factory is in South Carolina and we actually export most of those X5's and whatever back to the EU and elsewhere.

Trump is literally a walking turd that happens to also say things from time to time.

ha ha ha!!!

I’m sorta like: Who fucking cares? It looks like literally every other Porsche. I could think of at least 1.45 million other things money could be better spent.

It looks like a Jaguar.
