BEIJING MOTOR SHOW: Would You Pay Over 210K British POUNDS For A Glorified Porsche Cayenne?

If you'd give it a thought, then the Eterniti Artemis may just be for you.

Bowing at this year's 2012 Beijing Motor Show was the Porsche-based sport-utility vehicle. Using the Cayenne Turbo as a base vehicle, the Artemis benefits from a bump in power to 600 horsepower and 553 lb.-ft of torque. Zero to 60 comes in 4.5 seconds and everyone will know it since the two catalytic converters have been removed.

Where the Artemis shows off is on the hand-crafted interior and back seat that features two reclining, and heated/cooled seats. On top of that, there's an additional 100 mm of rear seat legroom.

According to Eterniti, it only plans on building 50 examples by 2013 a 300 by 2014. Considering they're gearing the product towards the Far East market AND it's beating out Bentley, Lamborghini and Maserati to the punch by getting the Artemis to market early, it looks like may be able to hit their target sales figures.

So lets see if i've got this straight.......

You take a Cayenne Turbo, not exactly known for the most comfy suspension setup, then boost HP and stiffen Suspension, then increase Wheel Diameter to 23in while reducing tyrewall height to 25 gauge...

Am I correct so far ?

Then you put Reclining Heated/Cooled Seats in the rear because there is a "demand" from people who wish to be driven sometimes while driving some other times.

Then to top it off they clad it in a body that makes Mansory mods look tasteful.

I guess these people have never heard of Range Rover Autobiography or Holland & Holland {Comfort / Opulence}
Or the Audi Q7 V12 {Comfort / Speed}

Plus if I had £210k to spend on this, then i could easily afford a Range Rover Autobiography or H&H for when i wish to be driven, as well as a Cayenne Turbo or X5 M / X6 M for when i want to drive myself.

Woof!

Talk about an amazing sport-utility vehicle. The Holland & Holland Range is unreal.

NO! This is something for SEMA car shows. An overdone and over priced Cayenne with a Jaguar grill and hood.

Yikes. They couldn't even get the hood color to match.
