This is the 3.0 Diesel. Bought new Aug 2014 4 weeks later left me stranded 150 miles from home (bad computer connector) Terrible and expensive dealer service. I've had it to 3 different dealers, all pretty much the same. $300. for an oil change, $300 for wheel alignment. Porsche requires oil changes every 5,000 miles but Audi requires oil changes every 10,000 mile on the same engine which Audi makes. My Cayenne has the Porsche Dynamic Lighting System (PDLS). The system has great features but are dangerous on hilly terrain. The headlights have a sharp cutoff at the top of the beam so when you approach a hill, you can't see beyond the base of the hill. I drive in an area with a lot of wildlife and I have to drive slowly, that's not what I bought a Porsche for. Dealer says the lights are per factory specs and they can't do anything about them. Porsche refuses to do anything. Another issue Porsche refuses to do anything about, the speedometer reads high, between 6% and 8%. The dealers tell me all Cayennes read the same as mine. Quite a scam, people think they are getting much better gas mileage and everyone gets shorted on their warranty (odometer shows over 50,000 miles but you actually only have 47,000 miles. On the plus side, it rides and handles great and has the best seats I've ever had. It pulls my 6,000+ pound boat with ease. Mileage on the diesel is great (I get around 30 mpg highway factoring in the odometer error but $600. in oil changes in 10,000 miles more than negates the advantage over the gas engine. They have not corrected the pollution issue with my diesel yet so I don't know what affect it will have on my mileage or use of adblue. Update, they have performed the Diesel fix to make the vehicle compliant with emission standards. The engine still runs well but the transmission is not as responsive as it was so you don't get the instant surge of power as before. The vehicle has been 100% reliable since it stranded me a month after purchase. Porsche still refuses to do anything about the unsafe headlights and the grossly inaccurate odometer and speedometer. Porsche got caught in one scam (Dieselgate) but is still getting away with the inaccurate speedometers and odometers so people think they are going faster and getting better mileage than they really are.

I own this Cayenne GTS for over six months now and I put almost 6000 miles on it, what an SUV my friend. The handling is superb, acceleration outstanding, great look, very reliable and smooth powerful engine. Drive one and you be the judge. Fantastic and well built German car. The sound of that V8 just make you go faster and faster. Naturally aspirated V8 is the best. I've had tuned 996 turbo in past and I tell you Porsche makes great cars. I had to buy a SUV and when I saw the Cayenne GTS and drove it, I loved every minute of it and I decided to get it. No disappointments for sure, very minor stuff to fix which every car has it these days. New Cayenne GTSs has twin turbo V6 but V8 is something else. Porsche all the way !!!

I've owned a few luxury SUV's but I have always felt they were lacking in one area or another. Be it reliability or overall features and style. I can't complain with the Porsche. What I consider flaws or poor design are so insignificant overall that I can't be bothered writing about it. This is a magnificent machine with incredible pedigree and quality. If you are on the fence about purchasing one just simply walk into the dealership and open and close the door. You will instantly feel how well built this vehicle is. The performance is great and the comfort of the seats is beyond anything I have ever owned. If you can stretch the budget to afford one then you are in for a real treat!

I have very specific things that I need my vehicle to be able to handle & I don't want to drive a suburban or big truck. This is it. It tows over 7K lbs. Every day I take it off road. It goes up and down a steep hill, in the rain and mud, including where a jeep got stuck. It is luxury at it's best, and so much FUN to drive ON the road too. The gas mileage is amazing and again, it Tows over 7K lbs. It's a beautiful beast.

I have owned my 2014 Porsche Cayenne Diesel for 1.5 years now and it has been amazing! I typically get close to 650 miles on a single tank at about a 29.4MPG clip. I only put about 5k miles annually on mine since I work from home. Not putting a lot of miles on it does make getting an oil change at Porsche a bit easier on the wallet. Oil changes are 589 out the door every 5k miles. I have 45,000 miles on my 2014 Cayenne Platinum S Diesel. I have the same tires on it that came on it brand new, because I dont rag it out. What I love - Love the look and feel of it, inside and out - sports car feeling while driving and dont feel like I am in an SUV - Fuel Efficiency 650 miles per tank, 29mpg all day long - Porsche didnt put Pirelli on the Cayenne, thank god! What I think is just ok - Look and feel of the steering wheel, the buttons are a bit clunky - The material on the steering wheel is cheap and after a few years starts to rub off What I dont like - cost of the maintenance, but when you buy a porsche you have to be able to afford the maintenance...you cant just go to jiffy lube. Overall - I would own another Cayenne and will probably not buy another SUV.
