It's a Porsche!

It has tons of complicated features. Itis a gadget hounds dream, and a shade tree mechanics nightmare. It feels heavy but not underpowered. A nice "toy" car to have.

Fastest most luxurious SUV I’ve ever driven,

This vehicle is terrific in the snow and rain, it is very reliable, and extremely safe with the capability to tow a large boat or trailer if needed. The styling is timeless, and it had almost every modern feature newer cars have plus a built in compressor to inflate your tires on the go!
