2006 Porsche Cayenne Review Summaries

What reviewers liked most about the Porsche Cayenne:

Leather upholstery is standard, and the interior is typical Porsche techno-luxury, all black with silver metal trim.

There's good room for four tall adults. Five such persons can fit for short trips, but the center of the rear seat is too stiff for longer journeys.

Inside, the cabin shares a family resemblance to the 911 and Boxster, but with an airier, more updated feel. The gauge cluster, center-console buttons and brushed aluminum accents all seem strangely familiar, though they're now joined by strategic splashes of wood trim. In typical Porsche fashion, the seats are firm and supportive, striking just the right balance between comfort and function. The rest of the controls are pretty straightforward provided you read the owner's manual to clarify the exact function of the center console's myriad buttons. Otherwise, everything else comes across as smartly styled, comfortable and eminently easy to live with.

Best one-liner about the Porsche Cayenne:

Aside from its considerable mass, which never disappears, it's hard to imagine such a vehicle working this well.
