Cayenne
Tuners show off souped up offerings at Essen show
No Essen show would be complete without Hamann in attendance with one of their extreme machines. The Hamann Cayenne boasts the full range of upgrades from the German specialists. Huge modifications are made to the bodywork with new headlight mouldings, a body kit and monstrous 22 inch wheels. The effect is exaggerated further by the new suspension kit lowering the car by 40mm.
Under the bonnet, Hamann take the stock Porsche engine and increase the capacity to 5.6 litres, increasing power to a useful 400bhp. The Hamann Cayenne can launch itself to sixty in 6.4 seconds. Another kit for the turbo'd engine is also in the pipeline with a target output of 540bhp.
Rinspeed
Rinspeed are often associated with the more extreme side of car modification with several wacky prototypes having graced shows in the past. At the Essen show this week they have a relatively sensible interpretation of the Cayenne on display.
The Rinspeed Cayenne comes complete with carbon fibre wheel arches, a high performance braking system, and various other minor cosmetic upgrades. They also offer engine kits to squeeze more horses from the standard Porsche engines. Two kits are available, taking power up to from 340bhp to 370bhp for the Cayenne S or from 450bhp to 520bhp for the Turbo.

Moderators...delete away!!!!!!!!!
Paul,
Each to their own, one man's Bhuna is another man's Korma and all that, but do you really mean that if you had 3 kids and one owned a horse and you had cause to transport the thing in its box from time to time you wouldn't consider one?
I had a sit in one last Thursday. It was rather nice.
We speak of cars quite a bit and the K-N has not entered into a single discussion.
I am only responding on a forum,but i really would not consider one, if you have a horsebox,,why not get a Touareg V10 diesel, get a brace of shires in the back and show the horsey set how it should be done?

Not for me , but I clearly have limited taste.
But why?
They wont go of road like that so whats the point? Might as well by and performance estate car instead if you need both speed an space.
Or even better spend the money on a decent sports car.
And if money is no object?
Buy a couple of decent sports cars....and one for me!
