test drove a 08 Cayenne S

Silver on black grey

Interior: Looks ten times more classy in person than in the pics. Handling is very nice. I was getting MADD looks and taking 60 degree turns at 50-60 mph

Exterior: THE SILVER or TITANIUM makes it look amazing on this car.

just really like this car and I could serious consider this a long term purchase but THis is my one problem :


I Drive upwards of 70 miles/ 100 miles a day ... with the poor fuel efficiency these car gets.. I have to be shy to pull the trigger


unless i do something like I use a honda civic as a daily driver and this as a my special occasions car...


Another worry is I am worried someone might steal this car because I sometimes have to goto urban areas on NYC .. well what can you do ?

What a great car, and how they botched it up by not making it fuel efficient especially here in NY PRemium gas is almost 4 now


didn't like E-class... I still have to test drive X5, 545i, 330i

there is a hybrid in the works (a few years down the road).

To be honest, I haven't heard of anyone stealing a Cayenne.

Other the gas consumption, Cayenne is a great all round car for use daily.

Without the key, the Cayenne will become "immobile" and I don't think it could be stolen that easily.

Unfortunately anything is stealable if they want it badly enough

I saw your post on the other thread about mileage and responded there.

If you are driving that much daily I wouldn't recommend a Cayenne. The cost of ownership would just be too much.

don't use drive throughs and don't leave it ideling every time you go into a store or stop for a few minutes.

conservation of mpg doesn't have to be all or nothing. these smaller things really help.
