Unless you need the raised driving position and extra load carrying space I’d be looking at a Panamera too. Both great cars.

Reminds me of the 997 Cayenne Turbo I ran for a couple of years. Outstanding car and defies the laws of physics for a large SUV.

Cayenne Turbo is amazing. Got my new one coming. I might miss the 4.8 V8 vibration and growl as the new one has 4.0 (but PSE will provide some fun!) but I am told it is a step up in terms of handling/ engine response. So I can’t wait! Before I had a 2011 Cayenne Turbo MK2, I had a facelift first gen facelift Cayenne S and I wanted a GTS so much. Your 2012 one is great looking and sounding. But the Turbo brings that even sillier power /torque and in gear acceleration which makes my current one one of my favourite cars ever! They are that good and pretty bullet proof!

Been told that Porsche are giving single digit build slots at the moment on the Cayenne Turbo ...... means my delivery has slipped from September to Dec / Jan 2020....... not an issue but the dealer even then offered me to swap it for the Cayenne Coupe.... im not sure im a fan of that ... not seen in the flesh though but i feel id be giving up the space to just get a car sooner... similar price when you factor in the extra options they have on the Coupe version.

I recently took delivery of the Cayenne Turbo: amazing car from the early drives! Porsche did it again by making an already excellent car even better. Tick PSE! Coupe seems super nice I think and those who saw them in flesh say it is gorgeous. I suppose it is a matter of whether you need the boot height. It is nicely priced. If you can also drop the fifth seat and get the lightweight package, it is not much more expensive than a nicely specced standard Cayenne Turbo.
