I'm looking at the V6 and V8 Cayenne (will have to test drive to see if the V6 has enough power for me), and am mainly undecided on what to do for ride comfort. This will be my wife's suv, and she likes them sporty but not harsh riding. She will want the 20 or 21 inch wheels, so I'm wondering if I'll need to have PASM on the vehicle in order to reduce the ride harshness some, anyone think that will be necessary or will it be fine w/out it given those wheel sizes?

 

with PASM the ride will definitely ride alot nicer than without. For example, regular cayenne without PASM and 19" rides rougher than cayenne with PASM and 21".

 

Thanks, I guess I'll have to find one to test drive w/ the bigger wheels and no PASM and see if it's do-able

How does the PASM option compare w/ the Air-ride option regarding ride quality and functionality?

 

oops, I got PASM and air suspension mixed up. PASM with or without is not that big of a difference. The air suspension makes the big difference. sorry about the confusion.
