Cayenne IS a Hot Chili Pepper!

We had a Boxster and decided to try the Cayenne as we have four dogs and horses. The Cayenne is very comfortable, easy to drive, gives me the power when I need it. It is a good solid car. Best of all I feel very safe in it.

Car is extremely well put together and fun to drive, vehicle gets expensive with ala carte options that are standard with the competition. Only annoyance is that when you need to park it for an extended period the battery will drain down, there is no "long term stand bye mode". Total plus of this design is the navigation, you can disable it and drive fr weeks without seeing an annoying navigation warning. Nice job Porsche!

Nothing has gone wrong yet and I don’t think it will, amazing car! Only issues I’ve had were the radio went out at 197k but I wanted a Bluetooth aftermarket radio anyways and this gave me the chance to get one. Other than that amazing car mechanically, visually and feels great to drive!

Better than my X5

My Porsche Cayenne rides very well. It has just enough power, but could use a little boost. It handles better than my last vehicle (a 2003 X5) and stops better too. This SUV looks great, and its paint job is much better than the one on my X5 too. Its sound system isn't great, I should have gotten the upgraded Bose. It leases for almost exactly what the X5 loaded does. It is a nice change.

Best vehicle I've ever owned

I bought the Cayenne S Tip after looking for a long time, I wasn't sure I wanted to spend the money! It has been the best vehicle I have ever owned. I have had to change the headlights a few times, nothing anyone with a little common sense couldn't do themselves. I have three young children but wasn't ready to give up my need for performance! Handles awesomely, acceleration is amazing. I am in the market for another Porsche, although I don't like the new rear end on the Cayenne's I love the Panamara!!
