none sense.. He started to accelerate in the 7th second (we'll say 7.5), and he hit 100kph right at the 14th.. that is less than 7, and likely close to the 6.5 claimed.

This car has been tested by numerous sources/publications, and none have come to the conclusion some here have.

The X5 4.8 non-sport PKG. will beat the Cayenne S 2003 to 2006 (there is no Cayenne 2007) Cayenne 2008 might beat the X5 have not tried yet.
I have try the Cayenne S vs X5 myself many times with my friend. the Cayenne very close to the back bumper but can not get me. As I said before, the X5 non-sport with 3rd row which make the car havier by 150KG.
150KG might change the performance form 6.5 to 6.6.
To get better performance make sure you have Sport PKG., Push the Sport Button, Big wheels 19+, Deactived DTC, and if you can turn off the A/C.

Consider this......as opposed to most other auto manufacturers who routinely exaggerate their 0-100 times and performance stats, Porsche is usually very conservative with its performance stats. Meaning, it's quite possible (most probable, even) that the Cayenne is faster than 6.8 in a 0-100 timed run.

I drove an 04 Cayenne S before my E70 4.8 sport and the BMW sure does feel slower off the line. I have tested my X5 in perfect conditions many times and not once did I hit 60 mph in under 7 seconds. I also timed the video link 5 times and couldn't get any better than 7.1 I agree that BMW may have been a little optimistic with the 0-60 performance stat.
