One owner. This was my personal daily driver for 7 years. Never abused, never taken off-road and well-maintained
with regular service. Always premium grade lubricants. This car purchased new had many options driving the sticker
to $130K in 2008. Today's version of this car sells for between 175K and 210K. It has a high-performance Porsche
Turbo engine estimated to have between 600-610hp. Chip and high performance exhaust installed by dealer boosting
HP. Xenon headlamps, premium sound system, leather multi-directional heated and cooled seats with matching suede
headliner and moon roof. Heated steering wheel, multi-level suspension, tiptronic / auto transmission. This
Cayenne is in excellent condition, It is not perfect, but close...it is an extremely nice car. I actually hate to
part with it but I am running out of car space. Would be a great second car for someone. Note - it takes premium
fuel and it likes gasoline a lot, but it is a fun car to drive. Lots of muscle and a nice resting profile. Best
Cayenne body-style in my opinion. This car is ready for many more fun miles. Happy to answer any questions. Note:
Photos show a missing rear left head rest. I have the headrest but in order to fold down the rear seats, the head
rests need to be removed.
A 2008 model review by the Fort Worth Star Telegram is below:
"The ultra-high-performance model is the Cayenne Turbo, which lists for $93,700. It has a twin-turbo version of the
4.8-liter V-8 engine, rated at 500 horsepower and 516 foot-pounds of torque. EPA estimates are 12 mpg city/19
highway -- quite respectable for this much power.
This model can reach 60 mph in just 4.9 seconds, and has a top speed of 171 mph. Helping to improve power and
fuel-efficiency on the new models is Porsche's all-new direct fuel injection technology for the Cayenne. It's
standard on all three models. The Cayenne is a rather heavy SUV that can carry five adults and all of their
luggage, so the performance figures are quite impressive. Curb weights range from 4,762 pounds for the V-6 with
manual gearbox to 5,191 pounds for the Turbo model.
The manual gearbox is offered only with the V-6 engine; the S and Turbo models come only with the six-speed
Tiptronic S automatic, which is optional on the base Cayenne.
For those who want to get the best performance out of the Cayenne, the Tiptronic transmission offers manual
shifting without having to worry about a clutch. Paddles on each side of the steering wheel allow for quick up- and
downshifts.
The car also comes with a "sport" mode that lowers the automatic transmission's shift points for quicker
acceleration."

Porsche Cayman GTS in track battle with 996 GT3
Wed, 09 Jul 2014Here's your tough question of the day: Would you rather drive a new Porsche Cayman GTS or a slightly older, 996-era Porsche 911 GT3? Certainly, both cars have their plusses. The Cayman is the more modern proposition, sure, but the GT3 is, well, a GT3. So yes, it's a tough decision.
If you're one of the lucky souls that have to make that choice, then this video from Evo should prove pretty helpful. It's a track battle, starring Jethro Bovingdon with a new GTS and an old GT3.
Calling the GTS "fantastically agile" and "fast, but it's also hilariously good fun," Bovingdon bangs home a solid lap time of 1:05.2 before switching to the GT3. It's remarkable to see just how dated the 996-generation 911 looks after viewing the newer Porsche, and from where we sit, it's further proof that the old car's headlights are something that's best forgotten. Styling qualms aside, though, can the GT3 keep up with its racy younger cousin?
Porsche calls in The Committee for Boxster and Cayman GTS
Thu, 20 Mar 2014Porsche is set to offer up the very first GTS variants of its more affordable Boxster convertibles and Cayman coupes. This is very good news for enthusiasts. Aside from our original post announcing the hotted up models, though, Porsche hasn't given us much to go on.
And you know what? This video isn't much of help either. It's called The Committee, and we're guessing it's meant to highlight the lengths that Porsche went to in designing what are essentially sportier trim levels for its two most affordable entries. Still, it's a stylized and entertaining video with a few entertaining driving scenes scattered throughout, and it gives just a small glimpse of Porsche's view of the vaunted GTS badge.
Take a look below for the full video.
Porsche reportedly working on new turbocharged flat-four boxer engine?
Wed, 10 Apr 2013These days, we've seen just about every automaker dropping cylinders in an effort to appease tightening fuel economy and emission standards - and Porsche is no exception. Nearly three years after introducing an all-new V6 powerplant under the front hood of its Panamera sedan (launched with a range of V8 engines) comes word that Porsche is working on an all-new turbocharged flat-four boxer to replace the flat-six engines mid-mounted in its Cayman and Boxster models.
Specifics have yet to be learned, but reports say the engine is a derivative of the current 3.8-liter six (shown above) found under the rear decklid of the Carrera S, yet with two fewer cylinders. Fitted with a turbocharger, direct-injection and the automaker's VarioCam Plus, the new all-aluminum 2.5-liter flat-four will likely develop upwards of 350 horsepower and 360 pound-feet of torque. Redline should be about 7,500 rpm. Initial indications say that Porsche will only offer the new engine with its seven-speed PDK dual-clutch automatic, tuned to take advantage of the low-end torque, but a traditional six-speed manual gearbox has not been ruled out. Despite the loss of two cylinders, enthusiasts will likely embrace the new engine as it promises to be lighter, more fuel efficient and more powerful than the 2.7-liter and 3.4-liter sixes in the Cayman/Boxster today.
Even though Porsche has been using Volkswagen Group engines for years (e.g., Cayenne V6, Cayenne Diesel and upcoming Macan), all indications are that the new flat-four will not be shared. Instead, it will be kept in-house for the automaker's sports cars and possible future fitment in an entry-level 911.
