Overall it's really great smooth sailing. Might want a newer style radio.

It's really great just takes a lot for a full tank. And repairs can be pricey. Other than that I love it. Not many problems with it. I would like a newer version for the radio though. The radio is blank some days and I have to control it from the steering wheel and I had to buy a separate device for it to be Bluetooth.

Awesome vehicle, best ever made.

Drives like a luxury car but is an SUV. Great acceleration, great traction. Very reliable, no repairs.

Hannah C

Sometimes the engine gets weird but most times it runs smoothly. There is space.

It drives well. It has comfortable seats. It is a luxury car. The color of the car is very nice and the engine runs beautifully.

Negative Owner Reviews

Alexia T

My vehicle is bad. It super ugly when I see Cayennes on the street there ugly.

It looks ugly it reminds me of a insect. I would rather want a smaller car because it's too big. I prefer a car that does not need so much gas because the Porsche is a slow SUV car and it take up a lot of gas. I like my Honda better it's smaller and if anything it drives real smooth and it doesn't take up too much gas. I love that car. My next car will probably be a Honda. Porsche is out of the picture for sure.

Pros from Owners

Victoria R.

Very reliable, fast, safe, sports handling, solid towing capacity, brisk performance, comfortable cabin, surround system, amplifier, base, sunroof, heated mirrors, heated seats, automatic windshield wipers.

Cons from Owners

Victoria R.

Parts and to fix the vehicle are expensive, cargo capacity falls short of rivals, radio is basic, needs to be upgraded, not that great on gas, have to use 93 and 93 is more money than regular gas, no GPS or navigation, or heated seats in the back.
