Porsche DNA in a top tier SUV

I bought my 2013 in 2017 at the resolution of diesel gate with 7kmi. I’ve since put on 25k mi/per year and it has been flawless. Roomy, comfortable, good ride with great handling (for an SUV) and love the torque this engine puts out. Great mileage (avg around 30, 35 if you drive the speed limits), and tows better than my full size Chevy truck. Passing through 150k trouble free miles. Great riding/driving vehicle, no rattles, incredible motor (didi I mention the 400+lbft of torque!). I intend to keep her until her last breath, which at this rate I’m guessing is somewhere north of 300k mi. Exceptional mileage (35+mpg at posted speeds, 30+mpg at 20+ over), 700 mile range, comfortable, quiet, and trouble free (5k mi oil changes, tires, and fluids per maintenance manual). Rated at 7700lbs, it tows far better than my Chevy pickup. By far the best daily driver I have ever owned.

What’s not to love!

I have always wanted a Porsche. The practicality of the Cayenne made this attractive. And the turbo diesel engine makes this a no brainer. Handling and performance are unparalleled. Zippier than my Audi turbo diesel and handles more like you would expect a sports car to handle.

Beyond Fun!

Drove a 72 Targa years ago and it’s always been a goal to have another and this one offers the great driving experience along with some practicality. Bonus is it’s diesel, so super fuel efficient too! Can’t imagine ever driving anything but a Porsche after this!

The best car for the money

I have owned BMW’s, Mercedes Benz and Audi’s in the past and none of them come even close to my Porsche Cayenne Turbo. This is by far the most reliable car you will ever find. I have now owned it for four years and have had no issues with it. Great handling and superb engineering. I am happy to say that for the rest of my life; my car will always be a Porsche. Very, very happy with the investment!!

I will ALWAYS drive a Porsche!

My 2013 Porsche Cayenne is my 4th Porsche, and the 3rd Cayenne I own; I bought my first Porsche, a 1999 Boxster in 1999. I absolutely love the safety, styling, comfort and handling of the Cayenne. It’s responsive, quick and hugs the road. No sliding on a slick road - extremely sure-footed!

Worth it

There are so many SUV’s around nowadays that very few stand out. I always tell people that ask me about my truck, how many Porsche’s did you see today? I look at it and every time I say to myself, “man what a sexy truck”. Different, rides good, handles nicely and extremely fast. One of the first things I learned when I bought it is to make sure you have open road when you hit the loud pedal. Just makes you feel good. Not many cars can do that.

2013 Porsche Cayenne S

I leased a 2007 Porsche Cayenne S & loved driving it. I then leased & later bought my 2013 Cayenne S. I had the car built w/every major handling option, incl. air suspension and off-road functions, which provides truly exceptional handling at all speeds. The driver controls, including sound systems, lights, mirrors, doors, hatch & vehicle operations, have approx. 80 buttons, each with a discrete function and diode light indicator. Newer models have "simplified" multi-function driver controls, which IMO are harder to operate cleanly, less intuitive. Among 3 models ( Cayenne, Cayenne S, Turbo) choose the Cayenne S. The Cayenne is underpowered for a 2 ton car; the Turbo--like all turbos--has too much lag; the Cayenne S, with 340HP (355 HP in new models) is very responsive at all speeds. Older models top at 150MPH; newer at 165MPH. 120MPH ( fastest I've driven) feels like 75MPH. [Caution, always buy tires rated for high speeds.] If you really like driving and great car handling, but must have a family car, the Porsche Cayenne S, w/all the handling options,will get you as close to the feel of a Porsche Carrera or 911 as you can get in an SUV. You can negotiate the dealer list price down by $8,000 or more depending upon the time of year. Fuel economy; 23+mpg extended highway at 65 mpg average; 14-17 city, depending on traffic. Fuel: 91 Porsche sends GPS upgrades at intervals Better still use Waze app through dash Bluetooth connection.

Porsche Cayenne S: Best SUV Made

If you need to drive an SUV, but still want superb handling, quick acceleration, high speeds, superior braking, direct, intuitive controls, luxury interiors, buy a Porsche Cayenne S, but be sure to install Porsche's 3 stability control mechanisms while you are building the car. Those 3 mechanisms are where a good portion your money should go. Do not settle for the downgrade Cayenne, and there is no need to purchase Porsche's very costly Cayenne Turbo. Buy the Cayenne S. The tires are rated for 150 mph. which is the cars top speed. Meanwhile, if you want a Porsche Cayenne S, but are still, oddly, concerned about fuel mileage, my 2013 Cayenne S gets 22 mpg, averaging 60 mph, on longer trips. Have the Porsche certified mechanics at Motorcar Makeover maintain your Cayenne S. Build the car on paper, determine the dealer's cost, including an estimate of the dealer's hold back money, and make a bid, starting at $2,000 over dealer cost, by phone and email to every authorized Porsche dealer within, say, three hundred miles. You will likely end up making a deal for about $3,500+/-. over dealer cost, but $10,000 +/- under MSRP.
