This Year's Model Updates:

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.

Pros:
  • Sports car performance, available adjustable ride height and suspension damping control, name cachet.
Cons:
  • More expensive than its direct competitors, some fussy interior controls.

  • Cayennes vs. BMW X-5 - 2003 Porsche Cayenne
    By -

    The Cayennes turbo is definitely the king of the hill in any comparison if you dont mind the 90K+ price tag. Yet the S-version was a big disappointment. The dead start acceleration was a dismal performance with no thrill or excitement. The X-5 will outperform the S in every comparison test. If you opt to equip the S like the standard features offered in the X-5, the price tag will easily exceed the listed $68,500 of X- 5 and you still dont have the performance like the X-5. The choice is yours.

    As much fun as Ive ever had driving. Its an incredible head-turner...people trying to figure out what it is. The most comfortable seats in my memory and that even includes my Mercedes 300SE. The aluminum trim option is a must. Ive yet to drive a turbo...Im scared I would want it.

    Handles and performs just like the famous sportscars. I sincerely recommend this to anyone who would like to purchase a Porsche but wants the feel of a sports car.

    By -

    I have not owned a Porsche for about 12 years. This SUV is superb in all respects - looks, handling, performance, features and design. I now look for reasons to drive long distances.

  • The Best - 2003 Porsche Cayenne
    By -

    I am 62 and always planned to buy a 911 as a kid. However, a 911 is not comfortable to someone me size. Then came the Cayenne and my dream is fulfilled. I love this SUV it is the best of both worlds.........

    Could not be happier with the performance of this vehicle. Not even in the same catagory as the FX45.

  • Its Almost Unfair - 2003 Porsche Cayenne
    By -

    The Cayenne is the ultimate blend of performance, utility, and reliability. Ive never driven nor owned any vehicle that simply satisfied every automotive desire. Once you drive one, youll know what I mean.

  • UNNNBELIVEABLE - 2003 Porsche Cayenne
    By -

    This is a truly and amazing vehicle. Power and handling are superb. Fit and Finish are a step above the current Porsches. If can afford only 1 Porsche this is the one to own. You will never feel left out of the Sports Car experience.

  • Drove Both, Bought Cayenne S - 2003 Porsche Cayenne
    By -

    My dealer gave me a head start on Friday the 14th, allowing me to drive the S and Turbo. Both cars were equipped with PASM and most of the options available. Turbo was awesome, but impractical for me. Both drove identically, excccept for acceleration. Both had very civilized interiors, terrific Bose audio, no wind noise. I bought the S, based on practicality.
