The Retractable Stud Tires On This Cayenne Would Make James Bond Jealous
|
We have yet to test the full capabilities of our Cayenne's 4x4 system. However, this winter we have tested it's snow and ice driving capabilities. While we don't find it wanting, we can't help but think that this new Nokian Hakkapeliitta retractable stud system would have made things even better. Let's hope they build these tires and do so in an N-rated version.

Insanity Takes The Form Of This Rally Prepared 911 GT2 1 |
Rallying has never been a sport for the faint of heart. Rallying in a turbo charged 911 GT2 takes something even more. Apparently, Frenchman Gilles Nantet has that "something". Watch as Nantet
muscles an absurd amount of horsepower around narrow, damp roads covered in leaves and other detritus.
