2013 Porsche Cayenne GTS - Car and Driver
The sound you hear emanating as you read this sentence is not that of Porsche’s 4. 8-liter V-8, which is bolted into this 2013 Cayenne. That, friends, is the sound of Porsche’s patented and highly precise hair-splitter at work. The Cayenne GTS is the hair-splitter’s latest achievement. It’s a Cayenne powered by the same 4. 8-liter V-8 as seen in the Cayenne S but tuned for an additional 20 horsepower and 11 pound-feet of torque to make 420/380. It wears a body similar in style to the Cayenne Turbo , meaning a domed hood,... And it’s loaded with standard performance gear that is optional on lesser Cayennes. This makes the GTS the purest performance expression of the naturally aspirated Cayennes. The highest performance Cayenne overall would be the Turbo. Porsche just introduced the Turbo S for the second-gen Cayenne. Add to this Porsche’s legendarily bountiful (and profitable) options scheme and you’ve got yourself one expensive mess of peppers. But Porsche’s got ’em if you need ’em. A Cayenne GTS starts at $83,025, but you might see how our tester stickered for $137,195. Perhaps you’d show more restraint in ordering.
