I saw this last month in Minneapolis while watching the ramp activity with my son. It was complete with roof light and Delta stickers. Apparently they aren't as broke as they claim.

Lufthansa S-Class is pretty up there, though I guess the Cayenne price tag is similar.

Old stock photo with 220 S-Klasse.

Pretty sure last time I flew with Lufthansa it was a new 7 series variant. Either 760li or the 750li...

edit: Maybe that was Swiss Air....

Also it appears Porshe has taken the Mercedes approach to LED lighting.

Delta has a number of a agreements in place with Porsche. The car service is pretty damn cool and exists at a number of airports. The Cayenne's are customized with Delta and the logo on the sill plates and some of the stitching on the interior as well. Cars will run high value customers from gate to gate and really high value folks can get a ride straight to their destination.

Porsche North America is building it's US offices just off the end of the north runway in Atlanta. I was looking at it today. They are making good progress.

Also, who is claiming to be broke? Delta is the most profitable airline in the country by a reasonable margin and is paying dividends on its stock.

Cool to know. That is really interesting.
