Summary: 2009 Porsche Cayenne GTS, 80683 miles, 4.8L 405 HP, 6-speed Tiptronic automatic, all-wheel drive, very clean, new tires, up to date on maintenance, Crystal Silver over black interior, PCM navigation with Bose, bi-xenon lights, power rear hatch, tow package. For any trade offers, please let me know what you have. Background: The Cayenne GTS is the sportiest normally aspirated model, offering 405 HP vs the standard S model's 385 as well as most of the turbo features, but without the turbo complexity. Upgrades over the S include the turbo's more aggressive bumpers, side skirts, and rear spoiler, height adjustable air suspension, PASM adjustable suspension, sport exhaust system, higher rear end axle ratio, retuned all wheel drive with more rear bias, 21" wheels, front and rear sport seats, full leather interior, and alcantara on the seats, headliner, pillars, and door inserts. Like all Cayennes it has full time all wheel drive, a variety of terrain settings, and the best handling an SUV can offer. In the following paragraphs I will describe this Cayenne GTS in excruciating detail, including flaws. Please contact me for over 100 high resolution DSLR photos, or with any questions. My direct email is mattjessupbba at gmail.com. Interior: The Cayenne GTS features a unique sport interior that would definitely be at home in a 911. The front and rear seats are alcantara trimmed sport seats that are incredibly comfortable, but also very supportive. Front seats are power, heated, and have three position memory that syncs with the key. The headliner, pillars, and door inserts are also alcantara. What isn't trimmed in alcantara is covered in leather, as the GTS features a standard full leather interior. Interior trim is matte finished aluminum. The steering wheel is a three spoke sport wheel with a nice thick leather grip and controls for the Tiptronic transmission and radio/phone. Entertainment is PCM 3.0 with touchscreen control, Bose speakers, navigation, satellite radio with active subscription, and inputs for aux, iPod, and USB. Everything is power and works correctly -- seats, steering wheel tilt/telescope, mirrors, moonroof, mirror adjust, mirror power fold, keyless entry, rear hatch, rain sensing wipers, and homelink. The interior is very clean, with no stains, tears, or damage in the seats, carpet, or headliner. Floor mats are brand new Weather Tech floor liners that do a great job of protecting the carpets. The second row bench is split and folds flat, making for a cavernous cargo area. The rear seat has A/C vents between the front seats and on the door pillars to keep passengers cool. The spare tire and tool kit are all intact and present, as are the owner's manuals. Overall the interior is luxurious and sporty, definitely befitting a Porsche. Exterior: As you can see from the photos, this is a striking SUV. The GTS exclusive 21" wheels and Turbo body give it an aggressive stance that sets it apart from more pedestrian Cayennes. Paint is excellent with a fantastic shine, recently polished with Pinnacle polish and waxed with Zaino. Zero dents, dings, or other damage. Very few rock chips on front, far less than would be expected of a used car. The wheels were just professionally refinished in Seal Gray (Porsche color), which set them off nicely against the Crystal Silver exterior. Power folding mirrors make parking in tight spots easy, and the power rear hatch makes loading the large cargo area a breeze. 2" receiver hitch and trailer light connection let you take full advantage of the 7700 lb tow rating. Overall this is a great looking SUV. Mechanical: The driving experience is what makes the Cayenne GTS really special. Despite being an all wheel drive SUV with fantastic snow and off-road capability, the GTS handles like a very good sports sedan on the road. With 405 HP you are never at a loss for power, and with the exhaust in sport mode it makes fantastic noises. Cornering is flat and unflappable, the brakes are massive with typical Porsche excellent brake feel, and the steering is well weighted and communicates well for an SUV. The transmission shifts quickly with Tiptronic manual control, holds gears aggressively in sport mode, and shifts like a luxury car in regular drive. Overall mechanical condition is excellent. The engine runs great without hesitation or warning lights, the transmission shifts smoothly, the steering is tight without vibration, the suspension adjusts height easily, the brakes are strong and smooth, and every accessory works. Simply put, it drives exactly like it should. Tires are brand new all-season Pirelli Scorpion Zero with a fresh alignment. Do not underestimate the cost of tires on a GTS, I invested approxi
