I just voted for Porsche. My choise is mostly based on design. Well, IMO, the Cayenne loos better than the ML63.
Then i thought about the engines. HP doesn't count for me since 17 horses is not such a big difference and since both cars have more than 500 HP they are powerful enough. Other than that, anytime i would choose the smaller enging, mainly for economy reasons.

Benz.... it's better looking and probably performs well enough for me.

Although the ML63 had the better exterior I prefer the Caynne because it's simply much more special. The faster acceleration offered by the ML isn't enough to comete with the superb handling offered by the beloved and praised Cayenne Turbo.

It's simply Porsche....

I whole heartedly agree with you... but I just simply cannot get over the looks of the car! I believe that in terms of performance, the Cayenne executes that better than any other car on the road and is suprisingly good off road. But I just cannot stand the looks... they tried way too hard to make it look like a 911. In that area, I give the Cayenne a 1.5 out of 5...

Of these two the ML is the clear choice, even though I'm not a fan of the car. The Cayenne is a disgrace, an exercise in marketing and a way to cash in on the Porsche brand. You might argue that the Merc is no different but hey, that's something we've gotten used to...

Beleive me when I said this "The Cayenne could have looked better". The day I realised that it doesn't look that good is when I saw in on the same street it's rivals the X5, RR sport and ML(all in the same colours). Since the car is one hell of a performer I can forgive it for it's looks. Though one can make it look better by buying a Gamballa kit.
