Have had many luxury SUV's (LR,BMW & MB); hands down the Porsche Cayenne Diesel is the best of the bunch. Still as solid as a rock! No issues. Gets 35 MPG on a Trip! Fit & Finish is great! After 5 years won't even consider selling it.

I bought my 2015 Cayenne Diesel used from the local Porsche dealership. Since the first day they have treated me like a king. I get a Porsche loaner whenever I need it while mine is being serviced. I have sat and waited while they do minor stuff and I am in and out. The service has been one of the best things about owning it. I feel I am treated the same way as someone who just put down $150k. The car itself is awesome in every respect except one. The gear changes combined with some lag at low speeds are a real pain. It is amazing to me that in a car this sophisticated something so basic is a real problem. Otherwise it is an incredible tourer. Tons of mid range power, quiet, comfortable economical and great to drive. The brakes are awesome too.

An SUV that thinks it's a sports car...

Previous vehicle was a MB GL550. Cayenne obviously much more sporty. Ride on stock 21" wheels/tires pretty stiff, even with diminished tire pressure. I sprang for 19" winter wheels/tires (Blizzaks) and ride much smoother. Acceleration, braking, handling are all insane--hard to believe you're driving a 2.5 ton SUV. What's not to like? Not much. Rear visibility stinks (but Lane Change Assist is nice). Ambient interior lighting OK for city but need to turn off on lonely highway at night. Seat memory function on key kind of finicky--need to insert key, wait for seat to adjust, then start, otherwise seat will stop adjusting when you turn ignition. Girlfriend complains about difficulty getting out but when I help her exit I get a nice view, and get to act like a gentleman in the process. Fuel economy stinks, if it's anything like the GL550, it's gonna eat tires every 20K or so and I'm sure repair bills will be breathtaking. If you get a Porsche and then complain about things like that, well, might be time to trade it in. Update: Took a 2000 mile road trip and performed well. Nice cruiser when suspension set to "comfort" mode. On a long highway cruise with speedo set @ 78mph, got 22 MPG. Could use more storage/cupholders in the center console and less switches. Some of the metallic trim on the dash, vent covers, etc. can reflect sunlight and be irritating. Wish the sun visor extended so that when it's moved to cover the driver side window there wasn't a 2" gap that the sun *always* seems to find. Minor issues but other manufacturers have figured out ergonomics. Update: Just turned 30K. Changed spark plugs, cabin & engine air filters, and transfer case fluid myself. Have not had any transfer case issues. Installed secondary cat bypasses... nice sound! Summer tires replaced at about 18K, with Michelin, didn't like OEM PZeroes. No issues & still running like a champ.

Great vehicle! The turbo lag was corrected with the last ECU software update. The key is to buy good quality diesel fuel. Mine runs great on Costco diesel at $1.99 a gallon in Ky. Averages 32 MPG. Just pay attention to the servicing the vehicle. Change out the transfer case fluid every 30K miles. DIY, 30 minutes and $41. Buy a VW Toureg Dipstick. The car is a Toureg except with Porsche finishes, suspension and interior. So, VW parts are much cheaper as readily available. You do not have to be a mechanic to do maintenance on this car. The build quality is excellent. The court in CA ruled that the motor and drivetrain on the vehicle is good for 10 years and that includes the emissions. So a 2016 put into service in late 2016 is under warranty until late 2016. I was going to purchase an extended warranty and the dealership said why? You would be wasting your money. Porsche of America is contacting the owners of these vehicles and making offers to buy them back for resale. Go figure? There is a reason for that. $$$$

My last four SUVs have been BMW X5s. All but the last were Sport models. I was a very happy owner of each (although they're deathly expensive when out of warranty). Last vehicle was a 2019 X5. Utter disappointment. Seems BMW went to fully electronic steering since I had last bought one. What a mistake. The car had zero steering feedback and was as dead as disco when on center. The electronics were maddening and a perfect example of "technology for the sake of technology". Hated it. Owned it three weeks and traded it for a 30,000 mile 2014 Cayenne GTS. It is like going from driving a soccer mom mobile to a high performance go-kart. I was particularly interested as this was the last model year of the big, naturally aspirated V-8. Uncredible acceleration. Handling is precise and the car doesn't try to entertain you with electronics. I'm an analog guy in a digital world and a little electronic wizardry goes a very long way with me. This is a car that demands your attention and input and rewards you. I would suggest you finish your frapacchino and put your smart phone away before piloting this one. Not to say it's not civilized. Fit and finish are legendary and nothing sounds like that V-8 when you twist the ingition.
