Is the Porsche Cayenne GTS The Best SUV for $15k?!

[@TexasRealEstate]

What's your favorite SUV for the money? ***Let me know in the comments!*** 👇

[@rhythmsaint73]

Tyler Roicki yeah I think so . I also like the ML63

[@TexasRealEstate]

@@rhythmsaint73 Nice! I actually test drove an ML63 before I bought my Cayenne GTS. I personally prefer the way the Cayenne GTS drives but I'm sure that the ML63 is a little quicker. It's a sweet looking SUV as well though.

[@michaelrawlins419]

Are you folding the seats properly? If you pull up the seat bottoms and then drop the seats, even with the sports seats, they should fold pretty flat.

[@TexasRealEstate]

Wow, I never realized that! Haha, thank you for teaching me something new. Crazy how much there is to know about these cars.

[@roryhenderson1813]

Nice review - can you go into more detail on the maintenance costs please? A rough breakdown of cost vs time would be much appreciated. Thanks

[@TexasRealEstate]

Hey Rory, I did a video like that. Here's a link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qX-taXZsfM1smJY Also I am planning to have an updated video on the cost of maintenance out in the near future. Thanks for watching! :)

I’ve been looking at the Toyota Sequoia (2005-2007) Lexus LX470 (2002-2010) and the Porsche Cayenne GTS (2011-2014) but it’s really hard to choose abs find good examples of them. Patients will payoff in the long run and I’m sure I’d be happy with any of them but I’m leaning heavily towards the GTS because of the driving experience. I’m 85% 55mph two lane roads, 10% in town and 5% fire roads. BUT I live in northern Michigan.

[@TexasRealEstate]

I'd say hands down the Cayenne GTS if driving experience is what you're after. I really enjoyed mine for the 40k miles / roughly 2 years that I had it. The all wheel drive system is great as well, based on my experience though I haven't had to deal with winters like what you may be accustomed to in Michigan.

[@carlosbonilla1637]

You still have the Cayenne? In Texas as well, and interested in getting a GTS soon, and I'd like to perhaps take a look at yours...

[@TexasRealEstate]

Sold mine a couple of years ago. Enjoyed the 2 years and 40k miles in which I had mine. Best of luck with your search!!

[@rhythmsaint73]

Thinking about one of these at the moment

[@TexasRealEstate]

It's a great driving SUV! Tons of value for the price of entry.

[@salehalbananh2281]

Thanks for your helpful video & info. And really curious of how much did the maintenance cost you for the two-year driving it,

[@TexasRealEstate]

Thank you, glad you found the video helpful! And great question! I did a video about the cost over the past 2+ years for you to check out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3ayd6BrlsaVesk

[@eazy-333]

To provide an update on prices for North East USA. I purchase two recently ( i know im crazy). 17k for 2010 GTS 85k miles in great condition. 14.5k for 2009 GTS 115k miles in similar condition. Now why the heck did i buy two? Because i loved it that much! The worst thing would be gas and maintenance. Everything else is great.

[@juanmasiman]

Wanna sell me one?

[@TexasRealEstate]

Congratulations! Hope you enjoy both of yours! 😎👍

[@milosvladisavljev6739]

Can anyone tell me what is an fuel consumption on this cac around city and highway? Thx 😊

[@TexasRealEstate]

If memory serves correct, I'd typically get around 13-14 city and up to about 17 highway, on longer drives. City can definitely be less though depending on how spirited your driving is along the way. 🙂

[@milosvladisavljev6739]

Thx bro 😊

[@zeezeebo]

Hard to find for under15k, saw 2012 for 25k

[@TexasRealEstate]

Definitely true for the newer generation. Mine was a 2010, last of the old style which are significantly less.

[@MarlonBrando420]

Man I’m looking at one right now. 2010 with 80k on it. They want 22k. But it’s mint. What do you think. And Remember the car market is absolutely in shambles right now.

[@TexasRealEstate]

The car market is crazy right now... That sounds a bit high but I haven't looked at values lately. Wouldn't be surprised if the prices have risen a few thousand since I last looked.

[@MarlonBrando420]

@@TexasRealEstate so I went and looked at the 2010. It was in Tampa, roughly 5 hours from my house in northern florida. It was trashed. Stereo didn’t work. Plastic was scratched all over. Water damage. It was wild. It was like all the things the research warned about, in one car...I even walked in the dealership with a check in-hand and I ended up walking away, I also blocked the dealers phone number. The next day I Found a 2014 gts. Silver with Red interior. It was...Mint. Two owners. Second owner was a doctor who bought it certified. Sadly It was 40k. I was so pissed and over the entire thing, I took the deal (or lack there of). It’s a beast. It’s mint. I can afford whatever. Couldn’t find a turbo in my region that was priced right with a clear history. So that’s my short story. Cheers

[@joelthomas2001]

@@MarlonBrando420 How many miles on the 2014?

[@DKarGarage]

Porsche gigh maintenance? U should buy a c63 amg and see how much does that cost , i got a c63 507 brakes alone are just lil over 5k

[@TexasRealEstate]

I test drove a C63 a while back and honestly didn't like it. Fast and fun but I'd rather have a 2 door for that more raw experience personally. Cool cars though!

[@DKarGarage]

@TexasRealEstate I thought that too, that it was a kool car but after owning the car for 51/2 years 20k in to the maintenance no thank you

[@ma35trodcapella42]

I just found a 14k GTS V8 with low miles I told my wife this is it before I clicked on this video. Thanks for the confirmation!

[@TexasRealEstate]

Sounds like a solid deal if it's a clean car / history. It's a lot of SUV for the money! 😎👍

[@DiaperSNiFFER]

So how’s reliability for these bad boys?

[@TexasRealEstate]

Hasn't left me stranded a single time over 40k miles... From 123k to 164k on the odometer. Pretty good I'd say, just have to keep up with the maintenance when it's time to do so.

Is the steeing wheel feel heavy??

[@TexasRealEstate]

I wouldn't say so, the power steering makes it feel fairly light.

[@bennyjose13]

@@TexasRealEstate I saw one, the steering wheel felt a bit heavy. And I am aperson who has a Corolla and I am comparing the feel with that. It kinda turned me down jz due to that reason. And the rear wiper made a huge clank sound on closing the tail. Is it normal for Cayennes with 117k Kms?

[@eazy-333]

@@bennyjose13 GTS have heavier steering which I absolutely like. Other trims are easier to steer from what i heard.

Im looking at 2008 cayenne gts for $16,995...99,166 miles ...is that good??

[@TexasRealEstate]

Nice! For a 2008, the price of that one is a bit on the high side if you ask me. For an 2008 with 99k miles, as long as it has a clean history, has a good service history and is clean all around - I'd want to be at $15k or less if I were buying. If the service history isn't known or if it needs anything, I'd want to factor in the expected cost of anything it will likely need and offer accordingly... I looked that one up and it looks like that dealer has had it for 3 months - a lot of dealers will negotiate a nice deal with you to move inventory that has been sitting that long... Aim for less than what you'd be willing to pay.

[@ma35trodcapella42]

Your formula should be 12k miles per year times in your case its 12 years 2008-2020 that would average out to 144000 miles in the car. So 99k miles is below average I'd offer 14-15k to the owner. 12k miles x 12 years =144000
