I'm sure the Pontiac designers would be all over that as a successor to the Aztek.

If it had a Porsche badge on it I'm sure some people would buy it and Panorama would decree it beautiful.

Ironically, the autoblog calls the design "polarizing." That might be a reach toward objectivist journalism, but I find it hard to believe that ANYONE will find that design attractive.

As long as it is financially successful, so that Porsche can stay afloat and continue to make Cayennes, I'm ok with it.
