Are their any exterior differences between Turbo/Turbo S and the GTS. Also Isn't it just horsepower, lower, and more car like feeling the only differences?
I will test drive the 3 before I buy, but so far I am leaning towards the Turbo S. Exterior, they all look the same to me.
If you are going to go Techart then I guess it does not matter.
Also if money is not an issue then go Turbo S, obviously.

I love the color matched Formula Wheels as well. My buddy keeps telling me he is friends with Claus at CEC so I'm hoping to get a good deal on them when my GTS arrives.

Do you have a picture or link for the wheels you are talking about. Also, what rims did you order with your GTS?

You gotta get that Magnum. Do they do any motor mods besides the exterior?

Yah, for 2008 models, they mod the Turbo to about 620-650HP. So probably with the Turbo S 650-700HP (I hope). I heard 9ff does the engine mod that boosts the HP to 800? I am going to be getting every GOOD TechArt option available, so 700hp is enough.

TechArt Magnum 2008
Aerodynamics:

- TECHART SUV aerodynamic kit I (front spoiler, sill panel, rear diffuser) in first fit quality, made of PUR-RIM plastic.
- Continuation of the dynamic line of the Cayenne Facelift

Tires:

- Formula I rims in 10x22 ET 55 with 295/30 ZR22 on front and rear axle or, as maximum version, TECHART Formula II light metal rims in the dimensions 10.5Jx22.
- As optimum tires for the Formula II rims, ContiCrossContact UHP
- tires in the sizes 295/30 ZR 22 were selected, certified on the Cayenne up to a maximum speed of 300 km/h. This means that the SUV is also prepared for engine tuning for the Cayenne Turbo, which in its strongest version is developed for up to 620 hp / 456 KW.

Chassis:

Fitting of the air suspension with the TECHART Sport Module means that the chassis is lowered by an entire 30 millimeters; accordingly, there is no hindrance to use in sporting on-road situations. The entire setting range from the lowest level (load level) up to the highest level (special terrain level) covers around 110 millimeters.

Engine tuning/enhancement:

- Performance kits up to 456 KW / 620 hp
- Engine optics package (carbon paneling and various engine parts painted)
- Sport exhaust systems

Interior:

- From the sports steering wheel through to complete leather fittings by de Sede
- State of the art multimedia-systems

Uh......700 hp. Wow. Wonder how fast that thing will run with a load of groceries in the back? What a demon. Besides having the red one coming, white is the best color they make on the Cayenne. Best looking and resale. Just got rid of a Turbo with sand interior and it is quite classy. Post pics after purchase so we can see more of the SUV.

That's in line with what I have done. I had an 08 Black CT that I gave $5k under, and traded back at even money. When the white 08 showed up, I got the same deal. I have had about 5-6 CT's and paid MSRP on the first few. Other than those buys under, I have generally paid MSRP for all the 997TT's that I have bought as well. Any Carrera I have purchased was a little under MSRP. Maybe I suck at negotiating. I might start a thread on what others pay based on MSRP.

A few posts back someone asked the exterior differences between the Turbo S and GTS, or maybe it was between the Turbo S and Turbo. In any event, there are some differences. The Turbo S comes stock with the sports tail pipes which is an option on the Turbo. Also, the Turbo S comes with the front grill painted in the exterior color, which is not available on any other Cayenne models.
