GL vs. Cayenne

Hmmm I see the new GL500 has about 400hp, so what's gonna happen when GL55 AMG comes out? Will it beat the Cayenne Turbo? Or will the Cayenne Turbo stay on top of the game?

Discuss.

Some pics wouldn't harm

It is probably going to be GL63 AMG or even GL65 but I would still take the Cayenne... Turbo.

You'll have to steal the blueprints at AMG.

Personally, I love the Porsche Cayenne Turbo. If you can post some pictures of the GL55 AMG, I will be able to make a comment in relation to "which car is better".

Let's stick with the specs for now. I'm assuming the GL55 will use the 500hp V8 from the SL55. But I would still take the Porsche Cayenne Turbo for its uncompromised on-road performance. I would most likely take the GL for off-road.

If I really had to choose, the Cayenne Turbo. But I'd much rather have a normal G500/G55.

Wouldn't it use Mercedes' new 6.3 litre naturally-aspirated V8 engine?

yea the Cayenne Turbo looks better imo. If I want a M-class I'd buy a damn M-class.
