The Ballots are in ..... (CarScoop)

It is formally announced that I know sh*t about vehicle design and appeal to the general public.  When  Porsche came out with the Cayenne, their interpretation of the SUV.  I am not a fan.  Period.  This car has been a successful and accepted within the automotive fraternity - maybe I should just drive one and my mind would change.  I doubt that though, I'm just not a fan of the SUV/COV segment.  Period.  


And when the first drawings of the upcoming Panamera were leaking out, I again could not believe the fugliness. Stronger than ever. But I am wrong again.  The Panamera is fast becoming a sales LEADER for Porsche.  Again maybe I just need to drive one.  Then again, maybe not.  I'll just leave me with my biases for now.
