Best Performance hands down!

Excellent vehicle! Beautiful exterior and interior. High performance in an SUV, what a combination. Great family vacation vehicle too. Able to comfortably fit 2 Car seats in the back and still have luggage or groceries in the storage area...

I absolutely love my little Porsche SUV

This SUV might look like an ordinary SUV from the outside but on the inside it is pure luxury and style. Dual climate control, heated seats, heated steering wheel, cooled seats, plenty of room so many extras.

2012 Porsche

This Porsche cayenne has all the features you want, parking assistance, lane change assist. In addition, xenon headlights, 19-inch Porsche second-generation wheels and jet back metallic make the car look cool. The seat heating and cooling system provides a comfortable driving environment in bad weather. Most importantly, BOSE surround sound makes your driving experience great.

2012 Porsche Cayenne Turbo

I have always wanted a Porsche, but the timing was never right. This vehicle is worth the wait. Although very expensive, the feeling you get when driving is worth the cost. I smile every time I drive my cayenne, even on quick trips to the store. The twin turbos kicking in give an incredible feeling.

Most upscale car that I've ever owned

Great design, fast, but you felt stable at a high speed. Practical interior layout, except the key ignition was on the other side of the steering wheel and the gas gauge was backwards :)

Best Sport SUV on the market!

This Porsche Cayenne is awesome! You'll forget you're driving an SUV when you put it on Sport mode. Then when you need to get the groceries or tow your boat you'll love the torque and the space and convenience.
