Image marketing is a grand thing, regardless of whether or not it has any grasp on reality.

In this case, Porsche wants the world to know that it has its roots in racing. That's fine, we enjoy watching the clever production and breathing in the nostalgia - it's great. We note, however, that there aren't any shots of the Cayenne sluicing around wet racetracks, hanging an engine-filled arse out to the side. Not that the Cayenne hasn't seen its fair share of motorsports action, mind. But in this case, at least, it's all about Porsche's sports cars.
