Stew Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 With the facelifted Cayenne they are scrapping the Turbo S as the Turbo comes with about 500 bhp! That's what I read but it might be untrue! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Pah just 500?? I remember reading something in Autocar about the new Cayenne, never paid much attention to it though. Id also like to add an Audi RS4 to my list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamB Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 '97 plate, £47k.... I'll have two please.... I drove one round the Gran Prix circuit at Silverstone. Magnificent, the most underrated Ferrari in my humble opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trev-the-Rev Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 I'm not envious or anything but I had a ride in a collegue's 288 GTO a few years ago and I've wanted one ever since. The sound from that twin turbo V8 was awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamB Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 The day we ahd at Silverstone was (to use the American venacular) "awesome". Exige Caterham Rally prepared 206 RS4 Porsche 911 F355 Berlinetta Land Rover (on an off road course rather than the track) Single Seaters Last thing we all drew lots for one of the faster cars to do a complete lap. I got the Porsche but swapped for the F355 since it was such a superb drive earlier. If anyone has £500 of their company's money to splurge on a jolly I would highly recommend it. http://www.silverstone.co.uk/html/dr_gp.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 RS6 is nice but Ive had a thing for the Cayenne since it was released. If I ever needed a big car then its the one id go for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H5 Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 RS6 is nice but Ive had a thing for the Cayenne since it was released. If I ever needed a big car then its the one id go for. Fair enough. A relative has an S and it's nice. But that's it, nothing more IMO. Quick of course. Main gripe is the leather - how do the Germans find cows that hard?!?!

ir_fuel Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Dont compare an S with an RS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ir_fuel Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 And if you want practicality in one of your cars, just get an RS, will be much more fun to drive than to hog along 2400kg of Cayenne Turbo S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
