is the Touring package worth it?

Ha. We're in a similar boat. She's getting rid of her Accord soon for an SUV. I don't know why she wants an SUV so badly. They seem so "soccer mom" to me. I've been trying to get her into an A5 but it isn't working. She's hung up on the Acura RSX, but it'd be kind of cool if she got the FX37 so we'd have the same engine...

mine wants a audi Q7 or BMW X5.......i said audi if those are the choices lol

personally i like the cayenne turbo s......which i almost bought instead of my Z

Ah, yeah, the Q7 and X5 are nice, but are too large for her taste. Even the Q5 was too big. She actually wants to look at the new Q3.

I think you chose right. I don't mean to but I think the Cayenne Turbo S is a complete waste of money. The thing costs six figured and weighs over 5k lbs. I don't see the appeal. It's a bad buy if you want a sports car because riding so high and weighing so much, it'll never be that sporty. And it would seem crazy to use it like a proper SUV, towing boats and driving through mud and brush. If I was going to spend that much and had the parking, I'd buy a Vette and some random SUV/truck. One for sport and one for hauling.

FPenvy

yea thats why iended up not getting one but the one i almost got instead of the Z was tuned/modded and put down 625whp lol

Geez! That's some crazy power, but I bet it still gets smoked around the track by a stock base Vette. Hell, the base Vette might even hold its own in the quarter mile with that beast. Lbs/HP is the ever critical number.

1/4 mile the AWD comes into play though. heavy/powerful car with a proper launch over a high power rwd car that has the chance of spinning and a poor launch

Yup, that's why I said might. Z06 would crush it, though.
