Advantages: the coolest 4x4 ever!! Disadvantages: everything is an optional extra!
a wonderful peice of kit! although it maybe pricey its worth every penny, when you hit the sports button in my words it goes from cayenne to turbo carrea! it sounds like a nascar when you put your foot down a little, produces an orgasmic sound!
the handling of this car is wonderful (on the road) but do be worned my recent testing had prooven this car to be a let down when it comes to snow and offroading!
on the other side... when they say the starting price is £75,000 they really mean it! porsche provides everything...as an optional extra!, even floor mats at £90 for a set! You dont even get wheels as standard!
i would highly recomend the bose surround sound system for a music lover! ...
Advantages: Fast, reliable and practical Disadvantages: rear seats for very young ones only but better than nothing
I used to have a Carrera 4 Cab which was quick but this car is in another power league. Internally it is identical to the non-Turbo versions but externally it has lower suspension (does not like traffic calming humps) and has air vents scooped out of both sides of the car. For those who like relaxed driving keeping revs under 4000 the 911 Turbo is like driving any executive cruise machine but floor the pedal to the metal it becomes quite simply a rocket!
Insurance is expensive and fuel consumption can be challenged if driven hard but 25 MPG is easily obtainable. All in all it is a practical supercar and with Tiptronic a relaxed drive even in the city. Depreciation is better than on Ferrari's and the extra 2 (albeit small) seats make it more practical than a Mercedes SL (a 2 seater only) ...

Having had a poor meal on my first visit I decided to give Cayenne a second go. My mistake. Booked a table for 9pm on Sat 12th April 2008. Although there were many tables available my partner and I had to wait almost twenty minutes to be shown to our table. Starter of pork pot stickers was doughy but had good flavours. After waiting for well over thirty minutes after our starter was cleared, our waiter noticed we still didn't have our main courses (2 medium rare steaks). He came to tell us our main course was in the process of being plated. When it came out the food on both plates was cold (steaks, mashed potatoes, shallots and sauce). The side order of chips were hot. A waitress took our plates and side order away. The same steaks etc came out one minute later still cold but on hot plates. The steak piece I had cut into was hidden ...
