I beg to differ...and i've personally witnessed both Cayenne Turbo S and ML63 beat a Jeep SRT8 in 0-100km and 1/4 mile at dragstrip. Jeep doesn't even give an exact number...just "under 5 seconds". I believe SRT8 is more around low 5's. We already have an idea of what the ///M variant will be capable of but if the X6 50i is posting such numbers...just wait and see what Dinan comes up with for their X6 R&D. SRT8 shouldn't even be mentioned amongst these German engineered machines. They're great in a straight line and that's where admiration ends for any enthusiast. Let's not even discuss it's hideous hearse interior.
