2006 Porsche Cayenne S 4dr SUV AWD (4.5L 8cyl 6A)
Review
I will never own another car! The Cayenne drives solidly. It provides great handling and I feel safe in it. I can carry so much stuff in the back with the seats down, more than my husband's truck and my daughters H3. The Cayenne has great power to get out of any situation. I use this car like a workhorse and put tons of miles on it. I wish I could use regular gas in it, this is my only complaint.
Favorite Features
The comfort and great handling. I love the large cargo space with the seats down.
Suggested Improvements
The seats are difficult to lay down and put back up. And I sure wish I could use regular gas.

2006 Porsche Cayenne S 4dr SUV AWD (4.5L 8cyl 6A)
Review
The Cayenne S has an incredible drive, has all the power one needs, and handles like Boxster. I love it. I also own a Mercedes-Benz S-Class, a Porsche Speedster, a BMW 650 convertable, a BMW X5 and a Lincoln Navagator. Nothing compares to the Cayenne.
Favorite Features
The handling and speed. It drives like sports car.
Suggested Improvements
The rear seat needs to be more comfortable and warranty should be 5 years / 50,000 miles.

2006 Porsche Cayenne Turbo S 4dr SUV AWD (4.5L 8cyl Turbo 6A)
Review
I love the Cayenne's crisp handling and exterior styling. The flexibility of the interior and the supple leather and everything is just such a great combination. It really helps to get to work in the morning when I'm in a rush. Excellent job Porsche.
Favorite Features
The navigation screen and heated seats.
Suggested Improvements
none.

2006 Porsche Cayenne S 4dr SUV AWD (4.5L 8cyl 6A)
Review
The car runs hit and miss (stalls). Its steering and overall performance are not up to Porsche standards. The radio is cheap (speakers are fine) and finding a well trained service dept. is a challenge. After communicating my concerns with the Porsche people in the corporate NA Headquarters in GA as well as the dealer and service personel I would not recomend this car. I have owned two Porsches before but it seems the company has changed in both quality and service.
Favorite Features
None that are worth mention.
Suggested Improvements
Sales and service. Porsche Customer Care.

2006 Porsche Cayenne Turbo 4dr SUV AWD (4.5L 8cyl Turbo 6A)
Review
I just bought the Porsche Cayenne Turbo in titanium with black interior. I wish I would have gotten black with aluminum air intakes. The titanium doesn't look excellent with the aluminum air intakes but it does give it an aggressive look. I didn't want to wait for a Turbo S so I bought the Turbo. Its acceleration is amazing and 3 setting for ride are great (comfort, normal, sport. and ajustable ride height). It is a bit bouncey but its a 450 hp SUV!
Favorite Features
Rear view camera, park distance control.
Suggested Improvements
More standard features.

2006 Porsche Cayenne Tiptronic 4dr SUV AWD (3.2L 6cyl 6A)
Review
My Porsche Cayenne rides very well. It has just enough power, but could use a little boost. It handles better than my last vehicle (a 2003 X5) and stops better too. This SUV looks great, and its paint job is much better than the one on my X5 too. Its sound system isn't great, I should have gotten the upgraded Bose. It leases for almost exactly what the X5 loaded does. It is a nice change.
Favorite Features
Accelerating through a turn and stopping.
Suggested Improvements
About 20 more horsepower would make it ideal and a basic package for the regular drivers.

2006 Porsche Cayenne S 4dr SUV AWD (4.5L 8cyl 6A)
Review
Have had my Cayenne S for five months and love it. The S model is incredible to drive, I can't imagine having a turbo. It is very smooth. Its navigational system is excellent. The only drawback I can find is the small cup holders on the interior.
Favorite Features
The acceleration, smooth ride, and beautiful exterior.
Suggested Improvements
Give it larger cup holders. The sound system could be more user friendly.

2006 Porsche Cayenne S 4dr SUV AWD (4.5L 8cyl 6A)
Review
My 2006 Porsche Cayenne S is fun to push around corners and is extremely well composed at high speeds. Its handling, acceleration, and exhaust note are fantastic! While it's not as lithe as the Boxster I traded in on it, the 50/50 weight distribution and 62/38 rear wheel power bias of the AWD system give it a real sport sedan feel. I love it, love it, love it!
Favorite Features
The PSM button. You can turn it off and the car has a whole new, even more aggressive personality.
Suggested Improvements
While the large options lists are a fun way to make your Porsche unique - the costs associated with things like satellite radio and cellphone integration are astronomical.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is one of the smoothests most well engineered vehicles I've ever driven. It performs and handles exactly like a Porsche 911, but with the weight and safety to be an every day SUV.
Favorite Features
Its performance!
Suggested Improvements
Dampen the wind noise just a bit.
