I'm pretty sure that their answer for question #9 is wrong.

In 2003, Porsche introduced the Cayenne. The Cayenne was Porsche's first

a ) SUV
b ) Four door car
c ) Four wheel drive car
d ) All of the above

I answered A, but they tell me the answer is D. I'm pretty sure the Cayenne isn't the first 4 wheel drive Porsche. Lame...

I missed the 2 cayenne questions... the one mentioned above is wrong, the 911 Carrerra 4s are AWD too... they are loco...

And don't forget the 959! Pure awesomeness! I think the last question was wrong too, as A and B were both the same answer. It would seem Discovery needs to do some more fact checking.

Wasn't the 959 a 4 wheel drive? used for the Dakara race.

I thought the engine sits on the garage floor,waiting to be rebuilt, in the 914 model

The last 2 questions were BS. The C4 came out in MY 1990. If you got 9 right, you had one of those wrong. There was no right answer on either of the last 2 questions .................

The Jagdwagen predates the 959 by at least 3 decades. Built between 1955 - 1958.

I thought the last real Porsche was made in about 1989.

And, at least they mentioned the 914 .... what a concept ... they finally recognize that they actually made the car.

OK, but what makes the 914 "revolutionary" when 356 #1 and the 550, both with mid-engines, predated the 914?

And don't forget the 904, which was available in a street version, which actually sold for more than the race version. The Cap'n

There is no correct answer for the 914 question either... The 914 engine is generally mounted on an engine stand! chair.gif

D is correct its 4WD with the option of turning it off ....the other AWD does not have that option...you cant turn off AWD but you can turn off 4WD
