Cayenne GTS
Porsche to show Cayenne GTS at Frankfurt
Porsche will show a GTS version of its Cayenne SUV at next week's Frankfurt Motor Show. Based on the Cayenne S, the new model will feature a 405 horsepower V8, a revised suspension and 21 inch wheels. The GTS will also be lighter than the Cayenne S and wears a new aerodynamic body kit. The GTS features second-row bucket seats instead of the Cayenne's standard bench. Expect the newest Cayenne to hit showrooms early next year.
Porsche will also show a transparent Cayenne hybrid concept at Frankfurt, displaying Porsche's new drivetrain that was co-developed with Volkswagen, Audi and Bosch. The first Porsche hybrids should hit the market by the end of the decade. The Cayennes will share the stage with Porsche's new 911 GT2 and the Porsche Design Edition 1 Cayman S.
also with the latest sales figures in North American putting Cayenne up 45% this year, there's no doubt Porsche is keen to offer more selection. However, despite the original SUV mantra of off-road prowess, this GTS model seems to be dressed with urban street wear. A lowered suspension, 21-inch wheels, flashy body kit and special GTS Red paint scheme define the look. On the inside the rear seats are tossed to the trash bin in favor of two (most likely sporty) bucket seats essentially making it a strict four seater. The 4.8 liter V8 gets a slight power increase of 20hp to 405hp (302kW) but the most ironic aspect of the GTS is that it has been put on a diet. No specific weight loss figures have been divulged yet but apparently Porsche wished to improve driving dynamics and performance by trimming some excess. It will be interesting to see how the performance figures compare against the mighty Cayenne Turbo and even mightier Turbo S.

Um looks like a regular grey interior to me lol Only difference is that it's a stick and dosent have a multifunction steering wheel. I hope there planning on making it in Tiptronic cause these will not sell

Tiptronic IS an option. PDCC is an option. PASM is standard. 21" Wheels are standard. Sport Design Body kit is standard. Not a bad value.
ANd there is a fantastic Orange Pearl color too. Hot. (Nordic Gold)

With Air suspension and PDCC this thing will be a BEAST.
I also think the 6.1s, 0-60 measurement is conservative. They shortened the final drive ratio... bumped 20hp lightened the truck... With a little wheelspin and a manual trans launch it may go faster.
