Ownership Status: I do not own this vehicle.
Recommendation: I do not recommend this vehicle.

Pros Turbo engine is great It looks very nice compared to the previous gen

Cons Overpriced Buy a Volkswagen Touraeg Interior is not that impressive Clearly the cheapest Porsche

Every rich person, non-celebrity status', favourite SUV.



Its pretty good, better than the X5s and the MLs.

Plasticky look.

The metallic paints cost a fortune, the wheels cost a fortune but in the end it does not look bad.

Navigation unit is 10k, seats are okay, plastic bonanza ...

It is very good at being fast at fast, but it is very slow at being good - do you get what I mean? If anyone wanted an SUV as a supercar, they would get the ML63 or the Range Rover Supercharged. Nothing else to say.

For an SUV, it is alright breaking.

Buy a semi-trailer.

Twenty billion options all overpriced.

People think you are a snob and show you how they think you are a snob by swiping their keys along the side of your car. It isn't a SUV as you cannot take it offroading.

Listen, if you want to have a good-value SUV, that you can take out of the city the X5 is for you. If you need an off-road vehicle, and don't want to be too obnoxious, the ML-Class is where you go. But if you hate both tthe X5 and ML, the Porsche Cayenne is probably what to go for.



Porsche AG are a great sports-car manufacturer. I said 'sports-car', not 'SUV-car'. The only models that are worthwhile for buying are the Cayenne Turbo and Cayenne GTS. It should be about $10,000 cheaper for the base, $15,000 cheaper for the Cayenne S and about 20k cheaper for the Cayenne turbo. I do like Porsche, but they should definitely steer away from making SUV's. Porsche are great cars, and this is a good car, but they need to make some big changes with it when they come to making the next generation Cayenne.
