In my opinion, if you start to "rationalize" any Porsche purchase, you will probably wind up with something else (unless you started the process with a Ferrari in mind). It usually boils down to emotion and image.

OK I want to know where I can buy a house for the price of a Caymen S? LOL

I want to expand my garage and it will cost me much more.

I would never say buy a Cayenne in place of a sports car if a sports car is what you want. I was saying that the Cayenne serves a very valid purpose and since I have the opportunity to own both, the Cayenne is a great alternative vehicle. It handles great and is fun to drive and feels like a sports car in SUV guise. It is a great vehicle and if you need this type of vehicle I would suggest no other. If I needed to tote a family of 4 around 90% of time and wanted a Porsche I would take the Cayenne over anything else currently offered. I might (I said might) even buy a Panamera when it comes out as the 911 and surely the Caymen is out of the question. So as I state here the CT is a great alternative to those that need the added room. You can still have the space you need and drive it on a winding road and not feel so removed like you do in most other vehicles out there.
