Solid workhorse

We bought his old car, which was over 100,000 miles, for $ 10,000 and thought it might help us for a year. Now, five years later we had minimum repairs (<$2000 in 5 years, including oil changes, tires and stuff).

The big dog

The power is intoxicating. This car has every thing I need in a daily driver.I love getting into it every time.You are not insulated from the driving experience. It has been a love affair since the day I bought it six years ago.

One of the nicest drivers I have owned!

Beautiful inside and out, and drives unlike anything I have ever owned. It’s almost like the vehicle is floating over the road, it is so smooth. Nice amount of power for the size of the vehicle. Interior design beautiful also. Probably would have given another star if not for the back seats unable to lay down. One reason for an SUV is cargo room. Large area behind rear seats, yes. Rear seats also not very comfy unless you are a child, some adult riders have commented that they wouldn’t want to be stuck back there for too long. Otherwise, for the driver, me, really really nice driver. I would recommend to those looking for a sporty SUV. You will enjoy every trip!

Fantastic SUV

What else can I say it's a Porsche, there is no substitute! Especially when you take it to European Motors for Expert Service by their Certified technicians! I I also trust European Motors with a Porsche 911, 2 Vintage BMW 's and a Mini Cooper S.

Porsche Cayenne S

I use this cat as my everyday driver. My commute is 90+ miles each way and this has made the drive much more enjoyable. I also tow an Airstream with it and you can hardly feel the trailer behind you.

Very Comfortable

If you have to go back to the dealer to have something fixed, you will need to bring a lot of money. If you plan on getting a used one, you should find a mechanic who is competent is Porsche repair. The dealership will make you max out all of your credit cards.

What a great Porsche

Have owned Audi S8, Range Rovers, Mercedes, Land Rovers, Lexus, and tons more. This is absolutely the most versatile car I’ve ever had. Fast, comfortable, solid, reliable, and so much fun to drive!!!!

Porche Cayenne

Handling is tighter than any other SUV we've driven. We only have the 6 cyl. but in sport mode it is more than enough to feel safe around town at intersections or entering the highways. Passing at any speed is swift and secure. This is impressive because it is a heavy car. The cabin is quiet. The trade off of course is fuel economy which averages only about 23mpg. The sound system, AC power and driver controls are superb. Repairs at a dealership are expensive, private shops like Euro Motors in Lake Nona can cut that in half. The GPS Screen is too low but otherwise controls, warnings etc. are all well configured. Notably, the leather interior is very high quality and durable. I have a 2008 and it looks like new. It's 4 wheel drive and flip down rear seats provide all the flexibility I need on the job, fulfilling the Utility component to compliment the Sport which is Porche all the way. No other SUV let me have the best of both. Great car, can't see selling it anytime soon. And it appears to be holding its value well too despite the absence beyond the backup cam of any newer tech like lane change warnings or auto braking.

2008 Porsche Cayenne S

The Cayenne S is comfortable, quick, and toes with ease. I bought this car used primarily as a tow vehicle for an Airstream trailer and it does the job and more. I have had only one issue with the car so far and had to replace few injection coils no it has run like a champ since.

Best SUV for Tall People

When Porsche was designing the Cayenne, the Head of New Products was a very tall gentleman named Wolfgang Lindholm. His engineers figured out that a failure to make Herr Lindholm comfortable would be a career limiting move. The Cayenne was a good fit and the rest is history. Porsche's Cayenne has been the benchmark ever since. Ed Forsberg

2008 Porsche Cayenne

I bought my Cayenne used a few years ago. It had been well taken care of and I felt like I got a great SUV. Mine is the base car but the 6 cylinder is strong and I love the sound of the engine. My only complaint is about the cost of repairs. I've had valve adjustment, water pump, a few check engine light repairs and all were pricey. I have a local German mechanic who uses Porsche parts and charges less for labor. My advice is to purchase a warranty if you buy the car used. Mine has 124K miles and is still going. I'll keep it for awhile.

2008 cayenne S

I bought the car , with 107,000 miles on it, as an experiment to see if we like it. It is excellent with the exception of its thirst. We like it well enough to plan to buy a newer one.

Very nice and beautiful SUV! I like this vehicle very much! The V-8 engine is very nice and has plenty of power! Capability to tow my 19.6 ft boat is very nice as well! The rear space with the back seats folded down is excellent for my dogs! I do enjoy the vehicle and believe it will continue preforming excellent for may years!
