Hi.. Just wondering.. for those who have the variable steering power assist, what do you think of it? would you get it again if u were to get another cayenne? i know it's only a $200 option but really how does it affect the driving feel (compared to other porsches that do not have this option)? is it useful?

thanks..

 

it is good, worth the money, but I didn't drive a cayenne other than mine so I don't really know

 

I have the variable assist in my cayenne definately see a difference.
Between mine and the loaners which dont have this option


go for it !

 

I order it for all my Cayenne clients. It's $200! Compared to a Q7 which costs $1200!

 

Its a must as I find it to make the SUV quiet responsive and sports car like.

 

Thanks for the response. I was just afraid that it might take away the response/feel.

 

I wasn't going to get it, but my wife drives the Cayenne too, so I bought it for her- well worth it to make her happy; she's only a petite 5'2", and I could see her struggling during parking w/o it.

 

it basically softens the steering wheel when the car is moving slow and hardening it when driving faster

 

for me, it is worth every penny, I have driven vehicle's without it, and in those vehicle's you "do" get more road feel, and the turning is much more acurate, but in my opinion, I would rather have an "easier" feel than a tough feel.
In cars with the option the wheel is much easier to turn at slow speeds, rather than the almost "no power steering" feel without it.
Worth it....

 

I would definitely drive one with servotronic and one without so you can judge for yourself. That being said, I think its a must and I wouldnt order one without it. Even for a sporty SUV like the Cayenne.
