When I think about Porsche making a minivan or SUV, it makes me think of Packard. Packard made a heck of a top-shelf car. They went out of business trying to make cars that were something less. I don't know if this happens to Porsche now for trying to be something they are not, or have not been in the past in any event, I hope not.

Not to beat a dead horse, but even a 4 cylinder 914 has a front suspension that ended up on a 911, and the later 2 liter cars did not really share much beyond the block with a bus motor. To my mind the water cooled front engine cars are a further trip afield than the 914 was, but that is me; I look at all of them as Porsches, but I can't see a Cayenne as anything but a VW SUV
