Overview & Reviews
We would've never imagined it, but Porsche jumps onto the SUV gravy train. The Cayenne, with a choice of two potent V8s and an available active suspension, promises performance that's more like a 911 than an SUV.
- Sports car performance, available adjustable ride height and suspension damping control, name cachet.
- More expensive than its direct competitors, some fussy interior controls.

It Drives Like a Porsche - 2003 Porsche Cayenne
By Olivier - December 12 - 6:20 pmI bought my Cayenne used, one year old. Im quite amazed at how it holds the road for such a heavy car and the way it really handles like a Porsche. It is a very good compromise, as its first- class in every situation, perfect handling on twisty roads, very good off-road (providing the right type of tyres) and very practical. It is not a true sports car of course, but still a very good every day car.

Cayenne Turbo - 3 months - 2003 Porsche Cayenne
By ChliPwr - April 11 - 10:00 amHave over 3,000 miles in 3 months. Everything worked from day 1 and nothing has broken. Build quality is exceptional. Sales rep at dealer was exceptional. Used service department ro install after-market options. Their calendar is tight. Like almost everything about the car. It is everything I hoped for and more. Power is great and it handles the dirt as well as our Range Rover. Gas mileage sucks, though - 12 mpg consistently. Expected that. Takes a bit of work to get back seats down for an extended, flat stowage space in back. Feels extremely safe. Good selection of dealer options. Particularly like the rubber floor mats.

WHAT A CHANGE FROM A LANDROVER - 2003 Porsche Cayenne
By yogidoc - January 21 - 10:00 amIve been driving Discoverys for past 7 years.Looking for an suv with an edge and a sports car ride. The x- 5s are everywhere-decided on the cayenne over the infiniti fx 45 which drove great but the look was too odd.I love the look of the cayenne(low key and aggressive) However driving around Boston gives your body quite the jarring.My other disappointment was the quality and comfort of the seats. From a chiropractors perspective think twice before purchasing if you have any back problems. Landrover was MUCH MORE COMFORTABLE! But i guess thats the trade off for a sports car ride.
