    Re: Cayenne MY 2012 updates

     RC told some time ago that porsche was working on a more powerful version on the diesel... will we have other engine (diesel) along side with this one (with more 5 hp) ?

    Any info on performance for the powerkit  (CT) ?

    Tks


    Re: Cayenne MY 2012 updates

     @Darius, can you give some more infor on the optional bixenon lights? Will they replace the current xenon lights?

    I am attending the press day at the New York Auto Show tomorrow (April 20) and will see if I can get some more info, maybe pics, for the new Exclusive options listed.  Also, any new specs or pics on the Panamera S Hybrid and Turbo S.

    If you guys have other question requests, please post here.  I leave early AM tomorrow for the show...

    Can you ask if:

    1) there will be a more powerfull diesel for Cayenne (and when) ?

    2) Cayenne Turbo S (and when)

    Tks


    Re: Cayenne MY 2012 updates

     Great stuff! Quad tail pipes and new decorative stitching where on my wish list. Will check out the other options as well.

    Tks Wonderbar Smiley 


    Re: Cayenne MY 2012 updates

     One of the new options is a new (plain) white color next to the "old" sandweiss. Difficult choice 

    The new bi xenon lights are only darker, for the rest the same. There are also optional darkened/black rear lights. I might go for them because they would look nice on white with the black package. 

    The contrast stitching is ridiculously expensive. €2,500 to have another color of stitches

    sure i will take the new front lights,don't know what to do for the rear...but maybe i will take them.

    undecided also on the different quad tailpipes...

    Re: Cayenne MY 2012 updates

    The standard rear lights of the Cayenne are too large and the uniform red colour doesn't blend very well with all exterior colours. Like in the picture.

    The dark option may be better with most body colours.

    Photo I took at New York Show this week. Color is Auburn Brown.  Not really so bad in person--just different.new york auto show 006.jpg

    Re: Cayenne MY 2012 updates

    I'm not sure that I like the mixture of Brown and Black (It 's a personal thing)


    Re: Cayenne MY 2012 updates

    Not for me, thanks.

    Re: Cayenne MY 2012 updates

    Sorry Pjd, I forgot to post the answers to the questions you asked.  I did ask the two questions, and of course received the stock Porsche marketing answer--"Porsche does not comment on future models, but Porsche is continually updating its product line." 

    My guess is that the Cayenne Turbo S will be available in the spring of 2012, if Porsche follows the same timing as before.  I have no idea about the more powerful diesel, but did find out that Porsche is still evaluating whether a diesel will be brought to the U.S. market. 

    Anyone else have a better time projection for the Cayenne Turbo S?

    Porsche has said the same thing for a few years now: "still evaluating".  I think it's time.

    I do believe that it's more than just talk with bringing the diesel models to the US. I had mentioned this before but I'll say it again. Porsche and Ferrari dealers here work together with dealers in Miami and the cayenne diesel model has been selling a lot here. My theory is that they are using our smaller market as a test subject to see how people react to it on this side. I have nothing to back this up, it's just my personal theory.

    Re: Cayenne MY 2012 updates

    I hope you're right.

    Re: Cayenne MY 2012 updates

    The Porsche media spokesman at the NY show said Porsche wanted to make sure it could be the technology leader in the diesel segment, whatever that means.  My sense is that Porsche wants to test the hybrid market first, to assess acceptance and sales figures before moving into another niche that has a bad image in the U.S.  Diesels have long been well accepted in Europe, but in the U.S. the image (albeit an old one) is of a noisy, slow, dirty and expensive to operate contraption--best left to tour buses and large trucks.  Whenever Porsche does bring diesels here, there will have to be an effective marketing campaign along with the introduction.


    Re: Cayenne MY 2012 updates

     Are there any pictures available of the optional darker head and tail lights? The images in  the configurator don't really help..

    Those are from a different thread and most certainly present the final outcome. On the front lights, only the bezel is darkened:

     Thanks, not much difference for the headlights. I'm considering the taillights on my white Cayenne.
