I had driven this with manual gearbox back in 2014. I think for whole state of Latvia we had exactly 1 car with manual gearbox, which tells a lot of how rare that option was for the GTS. I loved every bit of it, both on road and offroad, great car, great value retention, great durability.

957 is the best Porsche Cayenne ever made, 2009 GTS😍🙌🏻

Comprehensive,highly informative and entertaining. Thought provoking,great cinematography. Turbo for my money

Loved my Gen 1 Cayenne and often look at the classifieds to man-math another onto my drive. Facelift Gen 1 GTS sounds the best but I’m with you on the Turbo (or Turbo S) - that’s the one that would get my money. Interior upgrades and extra punch for the win. Great video as always James! 😎👊

Love to see you becoming more aware of the goodness of the Cayenne. My first introduction to the Cayenne was literally the introduction, at a launch event at Shea Stadium in Queens, NY. I was able to do their auto cross setup in a turbo and was blown away at how agile it was. And powerful! I had recently done so,egging similar at the X5 launch and the Cayenne was on another level…and the Bimmer was impressive! Many years later, my first Porsche was a Cayenne diesel. 10 years later we still have it. With 120k on the clock it hasn’t been the most reliable thing, warranty has helped. But it’s so beloved that when we went to replace it with a new one….we kept it and sold a newer car instead. I suspect that won’t last long, we’ve no need for two SUV’s but that tells you how much we love it. Porsche has done a masterful job of enfusing its DNA into a nose heavy SUV. Remarkable. Capable and confident, the fun is still in there if you dial up the switches and press on. Loving this series! A GTS manual would be the business.

You are killing it with the frequent uploads. Best of luck

The Sport button actually opens the exhaust up too. Sounds great especially on startup

It's worth noting that the gearbox isn't made by ZF, it's an Aisin (Toyota) gearbox which makes it quite reliable other than some annoying valve body issues in older models.

Nice summary Jay, Turbo got my vote. PDCC is hilarious. I tend to remap everything and I see no point whatsoever in looking for a Turbo S as they map to identical power as the Turbo. 4.8 957 was the sweet spot for me, I do all my own maintenance and love how it gets down the road. If you buy the GTS you’ll always hanker after the Turbo! Welcome to drive mine. 😊

Thanks for the video and stay safe ✌️

Your video on the first gen pre facelift cayenne convinced me to get one and I convinced myself that the V6 is enough. For me a car in a more reserved spec with smaller wheels and a less screaming and hopefully more reliable engine, at least for the early Cayenne models, made more sense for a daily errands car. I’m very happy with it so far.

I bought the Porsche Cayenne GTS just like this one but with 6-speed MANUAL. - love it!

Saw you go by James. Was walking my dog at 9.52 😄 Great review - was looking forward to this one 👍

My neighbour had a Guards Red GTS back in period, he loved it, so did I. The only SUV to own.

A decade ago my son sent me an '04 Cayenne S by rail from Vancouver. Marvellous fun getting to know it and the Porsche network online. According to what I read, I had become a naked (without warranty protection) cliff jumper (owns 1st Gen Cayenne). Repairing the car became my favourite hobby for four years until I bought a used Lexus es300h and grew up. In a time of rising fuel prices, the Cayenne per mile cost 2.7 times as much to drive as the hybrid, and it has ventilated seats. My son stayed with his '04 S for several years, towing a 20X8.5 car trailer with it. Then he reluctantly sold it for a BMW M2, but now he's back to a Cayenne plug-in electric, due to arrive in a week. A 240 watt, 40 amp plug in the garage has become the new family welcome mat.

Why do I find myself dreaming of V8 ownership while watching this 🤦🏼 Yet another great review James 🇬🇧

Great review! Just one note, the 6 Speed Triptronic is manufactured by Aisin, and not ZF (the successor 958's 8-Speed was a ZF) if i'm not mistaken...

Enjoyed that, thanks. I know it may not be the "enthusiasts choice" but I'd you do get to review a facelifted tdi, maybe with a remap, if love to see that. Not everyone wants the fastest. For me those days are gone.

I had a 2006 Turbo S with 520 bhp, very much a love/hate thing, but I was proud of it. I do want another, but will do my best to wait for a 2011 2nd gen, as the first one spoilt me and a facelift is too similar inside. I got 17-19 mpg out of mine which I was okay with. I have pondered the GTS, but now you've made my mind up for me, in short 'enough', really isn't enough. Turbo, or V8 Turbo diesel is the only way to go.

GTS all the way. V8 sound is awesome!

I have a 2017 Macan GTS, it gets 25 mpg, and drives brilliantly.

I had a 957 series Cayenne S for years and loved it. I only sold it to get into a 911 and although I don't regret it, I do miss the Cayenne. One thing I did find is that it's much more fun to drive in sport mode so figured out a way to keep it on as default, but to get into nutcase mode, best have it in sport mode and traction control disabled. Makes it a lunatic.

I want a Lexus LC500, would be a great car to repalce my XKR with.

Nice! Just bought a super clean, one owner 2015 diesel (My husband and I live on a ranch in Texas with cattle and horses so all our trucks are diesel and we love them especially for towing) so going for the diesel Cayenne was a no brainer. We plan on doing a complete overland off-road build. Hoping to keep this beast forever! We also went with one with no air ride so happy to see others confirm that it was the better choice 👌🏽 We bought a tuning chip as well which will greatly increase the hp & torque.

Nice summary with lots of good points made - very much enjoyed it. Another option which might tempt you/others is the facelifted 'S' which has the same 4.8 V8 with only a few HP less. Main difference is the price (picked ours up for 7k) which is a decent chunk for a mostly similar car, especially if someone has been busy with the options boxes - 19k on ours including air suspension, sports exhaust & 21" cayenne sport wheels (+ arch extensions) etc. I was also put off by engine murmurs on the earlier 4.5 and find the facelift more visually appealing so this was a happy compromise as the 'family car'. Issues so far after 18 months / things to watch out for: 1) all 4 headlights & tail light clusters have moisture of some sort in them - will be resealing in the near future. 2) 4-zone climate controls have failed in the back - not that fussed as just use the front controls 3) EML has just appeared faulting knock sensor - will replace at service 4) windscreen washer fluid pump is a bit weak - will replace at service 5) noticed a very slight hesitation once or twice under acceleration so have replaced all 8 coil packs as a precaution Other than that a hell of a lot of car for the money if you can stomach the woeful fuel economy and I genuinely enjoy driving it - just make sure your partner fills it up... EDIT: did I mention it's ULEZ compliant?!

Nice mention there of @AutoalexCars. Both you and Alex are on my fantasy Top Gear host line-up. :-) Could you at some point collab on a video? Perhaps once you both have your Cayennes?

Turbo. I have the 958 Cayenne S 4.2 V8 diesel, amazing car. Having full power available so low in the revs is addictive. 0-60 is 5 seconds in my car which is the same as the 958 GTS. 30 MPG! It’s outside your budget but the 958 is a way better car is every way. Definitely worth a drive in the 4.2 diesel, so much torque!

Thank you, James! This video may help increase the price of the 2009 Cayenne Turbo I will advertise this week. 😀 Although, I'm not sure I want to sell it. It is in pristine condition and is more of a brute than my much later Turbo S e-hybrid, which is mute in comparison.

Great review thanks......

Gen 1 Turbo is in the lower £360 tax bracket. Turbo also has the kudos and will help with resale.

I had the diesel, did 100k klink a year, and traded it in on a GTS. Loved the sound, power and go-anywhere ability. But the seats were a bit narrow for me (I’m 6’4” 120kg) and with our bad roads in South Africa the 21” wheels were very prone to popping on potholes… went through 9 tyres in 1 year, and had the rims repaired each time.

Only thing you can expect is decent range out of the big tank, over 15L/100 km is a regular thing.

The thirst is really the biggest dealbreaker of these cars. Everyone talks about the cost of them breaking, but the fact is even when it works - it's thirsty

The steering is different unless the original owner specced it with the Servotronic steering option, which the Turbo gets standard.

The first gen was a beast off road, the second gen was pushed much more for to the road side of the equation, no where as good off road. So it depends on what you want to do, if you want to surprise the locals at your off road trails you need a first gen.

I miss my 2006 Cayenne Turbo S, which I traded in for a 2012 Chevy Tahoe

Great review - feel like you’re talking really fast lol? I had to check I didn’t have the playback speed on x1.5

Some points regarding the transmissions Jay The 955 and 957 Cayenne automatics had an Aisin unit, not ZF. As an owner of a 957 GTS Manual and a 955 Turbo S, I don’t think this SUV needs a manual. First gear is impossibly short and the clutch and shifter feel aren’t nearly as precise as a 911. It’s still enjoyable, but driving the Turbo, I don’t miss it.

The GTS is around $60k here in the US, if you can find one.

Did a car vertical check on a Volvo v70 recently. Car had 11 owners on the logbook. Car vertical showed 4

Jay, please drive the 2nd gen Diesel S preferrably with a remap!

These things are the face of Porsche. They are everywhere. Other than the Macan, you never see anything else they offer. When you do it stands out like a unicorn.

I’ve owned the Diesel and the GTS (2009) I agree with the assessment that it lacks torque low down. I also owned a Mini Paceman S at the same time, and tbh the Mini was a more fun drive

Magnificent.

9PA is the most solid cayenne ever. They were just to costly to build. They ditched the low range too after this model. Maybe a bit outdated design today, but still feels like a new car. They are just well built SUV. You have to try either 9PA GTS or a turbo with air suspension and PDCC. its a huge difference! The turbo may give you lower gas consumption though.

Panameras are great value too. I'm surprised you didn't quite like the 970 turbo....

Yep sounds better than the turbo did 😊

In something this big you need low down torque for everyday driving, as James noted. The V8 Diesel has double the GTS torque, and similar power. And does 30mpg. The V6 diesel manages 35mpg, and is actually the better long distance cruiser, but is slow, and feels like a Touareg in a pretty dress.. It's the V8D torque that makes the Cayenne the car it should be. James, you may miss the noise of the GTS (I mean, who wouldn't), but makes sure you try a V8D before you make any decisions. As a daily, it's impeccable.

Cracking cars. Ideal for your sensible car👍😊✌️💜 However, what about the turbo🤔🤔😄✌️ These motors are - as much I love the look of JLR products - the thinking man's Range Rover✌️👍😊😉

Think a manual GTS with rear locking diff and PDCC fitted would be the ultimate package, a real Unicorn though, you really need to try PDCC in a Cayenne. It defies physics.

Porsche products, in general, are quite special. I'm not sure that I could pull myself away from the exhaust note of the E1 Cayenne GTS. Hard to go wrong with either choice though!

Mazda 6 MPS or Gen 2 6 2.5 Sport? Great cars and perhaps slightly different? Just watched your video before this one and might be worth considering instead of a massive SUV? 🤔

Great cars, I love mine even though it’s averaging 15.1mpg

I did say get a fast wagon for your sensible car. But I’ve got an SUV for all they offer. Especially on the motorway. A wagon is gonna be thinner for parking tho

Cayenne GTS owner here, PDCC is a MUST!! A 2tonne tank cornering as flat as a 911 is something else. Serious cars for the money and the pick of the bunch. The interior in the GTS makes all other Cayennes look awful with their flat shiny seats, that was one of the main reasons for me getting the GTS over the turbo. The GTS is just missing the turbo gauge cluster! Air and PDCC makes the Cayenne a superb car for all driving moods.

My recommendation: Get a low"er" milage pre facelift Turbo S with lots of options and a cool color combination. Thats the most special cayenne you can get for around 10k. Though I guess a facelift turbo will probably have some reliability (and styling) benifits

@GoldenCroc

Dont know how prices compare, but except for the extra "s" the facelift is the same or slightly better in everything. Of course, the lure of having a "unusual model" might well be worth it.
