I absolutely loved everything about my Cayenne GTS and have been thrilled with it, until this weekend. On a ski trip to Mammoth from LA the transmission has gotten stuck in low range. It wont move up to give me a limited differential and it wont move down to road mode. If I try the 307 mile journey home I have to do it at 50mph. I googled the issue and now find that its a common problem. Porsche roadside assistance is coming tomorrow to get it but wont tow it back to LA only to Fresno. Porsche have totally let ,me down.

This car is a road warrior. I have over 100k miles on it and it still runs like it is brand new. It loves the open road, I once drove across Nevada non stop doing well over a 100 mph and felt comfortable, stable and safe. Will buy another one when this one wears out, could be a while.
Prefer Cayenne to X5 or ML

Have owned this car for little over a month. Is a joy to drive. Fast and reliable - true Porsche driving in an SUV. Have owned both a BMW X5 and a Mercedes ML 320 - Cayenne is far superior to these other two. Gas mileage is comparable to the others. Interior is finished beautifully - I have the aluminum finish vs. wood. Modern and sleek. I purchased the 20 inch sport techno wheels which make the appearance more aggressive. Overall, a tremendous driving experience!

Overall it is a good vehicle. I have had it a year and do enjoy it. This car was purchased for the safety and handling features. (I had recently been in an accident where the air bags deployed.)The handling and braking are great. I still drive my Explorer as it is easier to load things in, but if it rains this is the vehicle to be in. Unfortunately I was just notified the staged air bags that were listed on my paperwork were not available when I purchased my car (they did state that the airbags exceeded requirements but that is not enough for me). I am very concerned about that and will look for another vehicle that offers that feature. I have owned Porsches since 1964. I get 16 MPG around town.
Best Car I've Had

I've owned 7 BMW's from the 320 to the 750 and this is the best all around vehicle that I've owned. (Barely beats the 750il) For a SUV it is beyond expectations for solid driving and stability. The engine performance of the S version V-8 is tremendous.
