The Appeal
A big SUV wasn’t quite what Porsche buyers expected when the Cayenne arrived in 2002 but they were quickly corrected. Agile, viscerally quick and very luxury, the new kid on the block showed that Porsche could do big four seaters just as well as sleek coupes.
The Turbo was the real showcase and as quick as a similarly blown 911. Special customers could request a further power upgrade to 525bhp.
This is just such an example and its first owner certainly appears to have been someone notable. Finished in a fetching colour scheme and very highly specified, it is a low mileage car that retains all its original quality. A long Spanish ITV to September 2024 confirms the condition shown in the photographs.
