The Answer to your 4WD SUV/ Sports Car/ Needs
Source: Cars.com

...For example you can see your realtime fuel economy and figure out who much idle control you need while driving to achieve 20 MPG. On the same token you can see exactly when and where your wasting gas by your lead foot habits. The birds eye view of the navigation is phenonmenal and there is too much info to go into concerning the amount of features you can control but this vehicle is "Complete" to say the least.The only reason this vehicle gets a 9 and not a 10 is because it doesn't have the fit and finish in the interior of a Lexus or mercedes and isn't as fast as a Porsche Cayenne Turbo...

GREAT PERFORMANCE

...Pros: Great performance, Very reliable and a great
looking SUV Cons: The brake dust comes back the same day after cleaning/ wash Overall: I have nothing more than a great experience with my Porsche Cayenne. It;s a fine vehicle...

What Was Porsche Thinking?
Source: MSN Autos

...The Cayenne V-6 is the biggest letdown I have experienced in my automotive life. What was Porsche thinking when they came out with this model? Terrible acceleration, (I figure 0-60 in about 9 seconds) atrocious mileage (12 mpg) Cheap materials, the list goes on. When my friends and family have gotten into this thing, without fail, the first response is "yeech!" Then when they hear the Hoover Vacuum Cleaner engine weeze, their jaws drop. Save yourself $25,000...buy a Hyundai Santa Fe V-4. Better performance, more reliable. One more point...even the local Porsche Dealer admits that this vehicle...

Speed Demon

...Pros: This car has BLISTERING acceleration from the horizontally-opposed six with twin turbos.
It really draws alot of happy looks from neighbors, makes a great driveway ornament, your kids are like celebrities at school when you pull up.
All-Wheel-Drive is wonderful in the winter Cons: Sports car engine, bodywork, and seats.
Not the most comfortable in the business. Nothing else. Overall: Love it!! My wife will get the Cayenne when it comes out...

Hemi vs Porsche
Source: Edmunds

...Two years ago I sold my '04 Porsche Cayenne S with 340hp.
As time went by I needed my fix. When Dodge advertised it's purchase incentive program, I test drove a fully loaded 390 hp Laramie.
What a treat. I was sold. Great vehicle and saved $50K in comparison to a new Cayenne. Can't wait for the snow to arrive...

DOESN'T DESERVE A 10.
Source: MSN Autos

...It is great for those people who would like a Porsche, but have children, or just need a bigger sized car(for traveling cross-country, etc.) It has awesome accleration for an suv. Cons: The one downside to the Cayanne is that is a high price tag, but if if you cannot afford it just go buy a Suburban or something. Overall: This car doesn't deserve an overall rating of 10. It deserves a 15. It is by far the most recognizable vehicle anywhere you go. If you don't want people to look at your car, don't buy the Cayanne! Some of the less fortunate people giving ratings just don't quite understand...

Expensive to own, fun to drive
Source: MSN Autos

...Cons: Quality. I bought mine used in 2007, it had just come off of a three year lease. The dealership I bought it from did all of the maintenance, so I could see the long, long history of this car in the shop for warranty repairs. Once I got it, for about the first 10,000 miles it was in the shop a lot, fortunately still under warranty. The electrical systems seem to be the biggest source of problems... lights, nav system, triptronic shifting... lots of other things had problems. The engine and the transmission are definately Porsche, I didn't have any problems with those. Overall: It's a...

could have been a 10 but....
Source: MSN Autos

...Pros: beautiful interior Cons: acceleration lag Overall: very elegant car, big acceleartion.
The only reason I would not give this a 10 is that the transmission has a habit of "upshifting" too quickly so there is a noticeable lag in acceleration...

Porsche's A To B Car
Source: CarGurus

...Luxury SUV. Got the V6 this time. Bose, Nav, XM, Traffic, iPod, USB, Aux - and seat memory is very useful.
Got WeatherTech linings for the footwells - so easy to keep the car clean. Not a great sprinter, but with the auto gearbox in Sport mode it will keep the revs up...

What the Porsche Cayenne should have been.
Source: MSN Autos

...Pros: The looks are terrific. The quality of the vehicle after 12 months has been defect free.
It handles like a Porsche. It is what the Cayenne should have been.
Lot's of nice gadgets. Sonar is great! Cons: No hand grips? Even my wife's 5 series has hand grips but in an SUV none? Only hit so far, grandma has a hard time getting in.
Overall: Traded in a Porsche and our old X3. Local Porsche dealer horrific and the Cayenne was problematic.
After driving nothing but Porsche's for 23 years switched to BMW. Great motorcar, Great Maintenance program - good service...
