Gas mileage is terrible, it might be too powerful (I won't be the one driving), and something big is bound to come up eventually with repairs.

All these thoughts run through my mind, and when I drive by the dealership, all those thoughts disappear. I have never seen an SUV so intimidating, so beautiful. The closest would be the Cayenne GTS or Turbo.
i'd be more concerned about cost of repairs in a few years if you don't have extended warranty or CPO on it. Lot of tech/complex engineering in that machine. Gas mileage is bad. Everything else is great.
