But it's also an AWD Porsche. And it's a hybrid. And it's not a 918 Spyder. It's an SUV. But it is what will be gracing my driveway for a full week! What (If anything) do you guys want me to find out about the 2015 Porsche Cayenne S e-Hybrid?

The brake calipers are green because they are made of leaves.

Would you like to sell it to me for $1.00 USD?

Only use your boat as a comparison for:

-Acceleration

-Comfort

-Handling

-Braking

-Fuel mileage

I think you're a pretty young guy, yeah? How do people respond to you on the road differently, and do you get weird looks for driving such an expensive vehicle?

Seriously, I like your last point. That'll be interesting to see.

I would except I don't actually own it. We auto journos don't get paid that much.

Yes, But that doesn't mean you have to own it. I give you a dollar, and you give me Porsche.

THINK ABOUT THIS CLETUS. THE CAR IS AT YOUR DISPOSAL FOR FREE, BUT IF I GIVE YOU A DOLLAR FOR IT. THEN YOU'LL BE MAKING MONEY ON IT. EVEVEVERYBODY WINS.

Is the smug feeling you get while driving it a Porsche owner sort of smug, a Prius owner sort of smug, or a dangerous composition of both?

Great question! Is this the smuggiest vehicle around!?

It seems like it. PLUS unlike other luxo-hybrids, you have the added false sense of security and entitlement provided by a large SUV.

It's the ultimate asshole's car. Can I have it please?

You HAVE TO HAVE TO HAVE TO HAVE TO let me know what you think of Porsches new hybrid system. I am seriously contemplating one of these or the Panamera with the same hybrid system.

How does one become an established auto journalist to the point where people give you cars?

People ask me this every now and then so I keep this handy!
