    Re: New Cayenne GTS

    I like the colors and the look.
    The Cayenne S should have these specs. Not sure why they're introducing this, outside of slowing sales. It better fits the sportiness that Porsche should represent however I don't think the TT owners will appreciate the fact it shares body styles. Puzzling.

    Re: New Cayenne GTS

    I am a little annoyed. The car looks exactly like a cayenne turbo but better. CTT, has 500 hp. You donot need that many horses in a truck. 400+ will do. In addition, it's got a nice body kit on it and looks lowered. Damn it. I would have waited and saved myself $$$. I could have used $$$$ for my next toy. Was offered a 2005 Gallardo for 108k, with the savings, I would have gotten it. I am going to quit feeling sorry for myself. I do love my SUV.

    Cayenne GTS video driving in the Dolomites (I think).

    Just from viewing the pics, great car and I am sure it will drive that way!

    Although I fully agree with comments made before, I would have loved to see a considerable weight reduction.

    Just add an Aerokit, and your Turbo or S will look as good as the GTS.

    This vehicle makes absolutely no sense. It guzzles gas, weighs 5000+ pounds, is essentially a station wagon on steroids, and has terrible residuals.

    Oh well, I'm gonna get one anyway.

    Not exactly. The Turbo has the two bumps on the hood; this one doesn't. Feel better now?

    I am a little annoyed with its turbo look too. But the GTS comes with steel suspension and probably no Nav. I prefer a bench rear seat. So adding all the options on and the price difference will be smaller. I will probably get my CTT anyway, which is still on the train...

    Hey Tim-

    If you've ever ridden in the back seat (bench) for long distance trips (more than two hours), it is very uncomfortable. (I tried it after I had a couple passenger complaints)
    That's why I like the fact that they put the bucket seats in this GTS.

    i guess no one in NA noticed it finally provided a manual on the V8!

    personally, i just wish they would give us the Euro V8 manual. the 21" wheels: unless you drive on some form of smoother roads then my usual wayfair what good are they?

    I know what you mean. But I need the bench for my 3 kids so no buckets for me. I am hoping the Panamera will come as a bench rear seats option so I can buy one.

    In the german configurator the GTS is already in use.
    My favorite: nordischgold with some interior application in exterieur colour.., best with roof rails in black aluminium..

    In Germany the GTS will cost from EUR 76.725 -- as a Turbo owner I'd be slightly irritated that a car costing 30.000 EUR less is getting the LED front light stripe.



    The purpose of GTS is to hurt the sales of both the CS and CTT?



    The GTS is designed to put the X5 M Sport in its place. I like it much more than the CTT and the CS (I have owned both) and may get one.

    I think I will order one to replace my -05 CS. 405 hp with manual transmission and steel springs. Just what I am looking for.
    And you can get it without all the stupid gadgets that is standard on the turbo.
