Newbie Mercedes Owner - Considering Cayenne
Hello,Porsche Enthusiast Forummembers! I am a newbie here, and judging from the title, you can see I'm new to the Cayenne. We test drove a 2004 Cayenne S and really liked the car; I do have some questions as I have never owned a Porsche.
Is 2004 a better year for the Cayenne S over the 2003? What are some of the issues / bugs with the Cayenne that I should have checked or look out for? Do the rear seats completely fold down flat in the Cayenne? We tried to play around with the rear seats but were not able to get them flat and the salesperson didn’t know much about the Cayenne. Another car on our shopping list is the 04-05 BMW X5 4.4i. I know this a Porsche forum but how does the Cayenne S fair up against the 4.4i. Do the 04 models have an option for integrating the iPod, Bluetooth functionality or any integrated phone options? [/ol] Cheers |

Wow....not many people have any positive feedback on the Cayenne. The good - looks like lot of NC people here like me....The bad - I am nervous about considering the Cayenne and maybe need to looks at the X5 4.4i or 4.8 seriously now.

My boss drives an 04 Cayenne S and has had it since it was new. He absolutely loves it. He's driven it on several cross country trips, has a couple of kids and he said it's bullet proof. It's also blazing fast for an SUV.

Sounds like you already made up your mind. The Cayenne is an amazing SUV with many more positives than negatives. Good luck with your search. BTW go on the bimmer forums and you'll find a lot of negative posts as well.

Go for the Cayenne you will not regret it. I owned a 2004S and currently own a 2007 Turbo. If you can afford it step up to the Turbo. I am not an SUV fan, more of a 911 nut, but I sure like the Cayenne S and the Turbo is twice the fun. I hope this helps.

However before making the final decision, check out the Mercedes ML420CDI. Regards Big Bob
