As a 3 decade 911 owner, I sure didn’t see the Cayenne S as any better build quality. I extensively test drove a loaded Cayenne S and Cayenne Turbo. The Turbo really needed to be optioned up to equal a loaded X5 50i M-Sport and then the Turbo was grossly over priced and the design didn’t feel any more luxurious. I begrudgingly accept paying for every little option on my 911’s but no way on a Cayenne.
The S didn’t have the sound or torque of the BMW. It had noticeably more plastic in it and it’s open front cupholder design is inexcusable at this price point.
I wanted to like it but found it’s design not that luxurious in its build material. BMW really upped their game with quality of materials with the G05.
