Thanks! Would anyone here know if it's normal that the sticker under the hood says Cayenne S?

My GTS also has a Cayenne S sticker under the hood, I expect this is the norm.

I assumed it's this way since, it is the Cayenne S engine.... When I first saw it was I was like "hmmm, did they accidentally put the "S" hood on it" lol

I saw cayenne s under the hood of a GTS I test drove too. It is the same engine.

I think you are looking at the Emiission sticker which is not vehicle specific but engine specific.
No need for concern as it is the same basic motor as the S as far as emissions is concerned.

Chris, any update on how you are liking your GTS after a few more weeks of driving? I haven't seen too many other posts of new '13 GTS Cayennes out there so any further details of your experiences, whether positive or negative, would be of interest. Bottom line is has it met your expectations and would you buy again versus going upmarket with a Turbo or perhaps slightly downmarket with an S or Diesel? Thanks

So far, So good, We've put about 850 miles on it already, I love it and wouldn't have went up or down, the sound, the looks, leaps and bounds beyond the S. A turbo would be nice for more power, but I feel like this has PLENTY of power (and I havn't taken it over 4kRPM) for an SUV, and frankly, I couldn't imagine breaking into the 100K mark, it's just a mental thing I think. In sport, this thing is a thrill to drive, handling is so smooth and solid, feels well planted, much like my 911.

I'm calling my dealer about the clock this week, havn't been to worried about it, and I have a rattle they need to check out... oh, and I do not like the auto off/start feature... just weird, other than those things, everything's great!

Congrats on the car. Would you be able to post some pictures of the extended LED package on the inside. I am ordering a car and would like to know what the extended LED's look like.

We did not do extended LED, Just "light comfort pkg"
