LOL when the Cayenne first came out and I test drove it I thought it felt a lot like my 928 GT only you sit higher off the ground. People think the 928 feels heavy too.
The 340 hp was more than enough in the 2004 Cayenne S. The extra 110 hp in the 2005 Turbo is just nuts and the 2006 Turbo S has 50 more than that! I rarely if ever get past 1/4 throttle.
Interesting that the towing capacity for my S and Turbo are the same. The Turbo I got doesn't have a hitch so it is a non-issue for me too.
Haven't towed a trailer since I hauled my brothers old Ford tractor out to his farm when I was 28 yo with my Jeep Cherokee. He broke the rear bumper off his pickup because he put too much tongue weight on it by pulling the tractor all the way to the front of the trailer. Glad my Jeep Cherokee had a class 3 hitch welded to the frame. He did the same thing with the Jeep even after breaking the bumper off the pickup and was expecting me to drive off with the front wheels 3 foot off the ground! Tried to tell him that there is a reason there were double axels on the trailer, and he is supposed to be an engineer!
