yup, that plus electric driver's side seat, smart key, I think the tailgate is electric as well, headlights might be different, and of course heated seats ( :lol: :/)
the engine is the 2.0L. I forgot to ask if/ when the 2.5L will come, or if we'll get the Skyactive diesel down here :oops:

in just a few days the 2.5 mazda 6 went from 371 to 375k and the bt-50 2.2 was 280 now its 283. Seems like a quote is invalid in just a few days with that dealer..

Now Imagine if I drove the V8 and v8 turbo version!!


I drove the cayenne gts and others in its class and imo it has combined sportiness and luxury successfully ,hands down the best high-end suv on the market to date.
Mind you if its straight luxury you are looking for, then range has that In the bag.

That's some poor advice you got there I think. It's the worst riding big SUV I've been in.

It takes a special chassis, suspension and understanding of weight distribution to get a SUV to respond to high speed cornering. Porsche are masters of that.

I said the same until I went Massey and started adding accessories to my van then I got a shocker, in addition so far I've seen two cases where the local 4x4 Manual 6FWD Navara Clutch cylinders are breaking off at the firewall anyone on tuner experience this??

One more, Tuscon owners have you had to change brakes (all pads) after your first 5K service ??

I should have been a bit more clear on what I meant. I was talking about in that price range and group of SUV's being discussed. I don't consider those you listed to be in the same bracket as the X5/Cayenne/Q7.

Besides, I actually haven't been in any of those you listed. :)

well done tourniquet. Something really had to be special with that Colorado for that price. I am expecting best in class power; interior room, features and I'm hoping it's the new 2014/2015 model seen below:

Colorado's have re-entered the US market so that would be an option for parts
