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.

Great Everyday Driver - 2003 Porsche Cayenne
By RayBen - May 9 - 10:00 amBuild quality is A+ . Turbo produces tremendous power but suffers from Turbo lag off the line. The only truely bad point is that the Cayenne Turbos exhaust is "Mercedes Quiet" it produces no exhaust rumble. Porsches TV add shows a Turbo but the sound is that of a regular non Turbo Porsche. Shame on them.

Cayenne S - 2003 Porsche Cayenne
By icnsltmfg - May 9 - 10:00 amHaving driven a MB ML430 for the last 3 years, and also driving a Ferrari as a second car, This is the most fun I am having with a vehicle. It drives fantastic, handles very well, very smooth, very fast, very tight, and gets stares from everyone. You sit nice and high, but never feel like its going to roll or loose control even when you throw it around. The power is great, but the tiptronic sometimes puts it in 6 gear too quickly. Too many options to choose from, and some options should be standard, but after 2K miles I am hooked big time, and sometimes leave the Ferrari in the garage and take the Cayenne.

What an experienc - 2003 Porsche Cayenne
By Banjoman - May 2 - 10:00 amI also own a 2001 Cabriolet, which, until the Cayenne, I thought was the ultmate vehicle. Problem is, I live in Colorado (not a problem, actually) and the 911 stays parked most of 5 months a year. The Cayenne is a wonderful daily driver. I test drove the BMW X and my wife drives a Lexus GX. The GX is a great vehicle as well but the Cayenne is much more of a drivers vehicle. You get all of the benefits of a 4WD while actually having fun driving. This is the ultimate Colorado vehicle.

Next best after 911 - 2003 Porsche Cayenne
By tjappe - December 26 - 10:00 amThe best SUV car I have ever driven. You can not compare it to a 911 and you should not. It is very good car for long drives and terrain. One 911 and one Cayenne and then you´ve got it...

The Bomb - 2003 Porsche Cayenne
By zunnndog - November 14 - 10:00 amThe Cayenne behaves like a true Porsche. This is my 5th Porsche and I may add my favorite. I have to allow that I am older and slower now, but the Cayenne is the SUV of the future. I notice people gawking at the car repeatedly, more so that any of my 911s. I guess that is Ok but I honestly believe that they are looking at a Auto like they have never seen before.

Cayenne Limo - 2003 Porsche Cayenne
By TRU Limo - September 26 - 10:00 amRecently, I purchased a Cayenne and had it stretched to fit a comfortable 12 passengers. I own a limo comapny in New Jersey and specialize in exotic limos. The Porsche was not the best looking vehicle on the market, it was the best built. Also, I built a BMW X5 back in 2001 and it got rave reviews. The Porsche really gives the X5 a run for the money. I never thought a Porsche SUV could handle like a car. I give it 5 stars.

my cayenne - 2003 Porsche Cayenne
By griffen99 - July 13 - 2:00 amshould i by a sports car or an SUV? dont settle, buy a Cayenne. While I have had it for less than one month, this vehicle is awesome. Handles like nothing else out there, I have the "S", and the 340HP is GREAT. Sure Id rather havve 450HP, but this works just fine. Thye took there time and gave us a GREAT SUV. X5 doesnt even come close.
