Trade this for a 2003 Cayenne Turbo?

The owner wants my CL55 badly, I'm thinking
about it "hard"!!
The Cayenne is Black.

I'd take the Cayenne in a heartbeat over the CL.

The CL is much better looking.

But what car do you need, do you need the SUV to bring home diapers or not?

Is that the supercharged (500bhp) CL?

I'd go for it. Knowing your cars, it's not likely to stay stock for long...

Adam, no it isn't. It's the previous model with the naturally aspirated 350bhp motor from the 1st generation E55.

The Cayenne is an ugly POS undeserving of the Porsche name. Buy a VW Toureg - it's exactly the same thing for much less money and you can always duct tape on a couple of turbos if you need to go fast ...... or at least that's what I'm told by the Pelican cognoscenti ...... Porsche. There is no substitute.

Get the Cayenne. The CL is nice, but the Cayenne is cooler, and will complete the Porsche Turbo Trifecta.

Ask yourself why the Cayenne owner wants your CL instead.

And I second Leland's response: WHAT THE H-E-DOUBLE-HOCKEYSTICKS DO YOU DO FOR A LIVING?????

Nah, keep the CL. I like the Cayenne as much as I could ever love any SUV (which isn't much), but the CL is just a BEAUTIFUL car - it'll be worth more in the long run.

Get the cayenne, its more useful than the CL. You have 2 other insanely fast cars in the driveway anyways.

I'd prefer the Cayenne, bet it's faster than the MB.

Surely there's some self-interest here.

Gentlemen, thanks for you response.
In reply to your questions:
The CL is a 2002 with 430hp (Renntech).
I've never had any trouble, it only has
8k miles.
My wife has an SUV, so I really have no
need for another SUV.
Yes, I will start a 600hp project on it!!
(if a deal can be made)
As to what I do, I'm just a humble "Int'l
Finance Broker" with lots of friends.

I'm meeting this guy for lunch today, We're trading
cars for the afternoon.
