2024 Porsche Cayenne S vs The Cheapest V8 Cayenne You Can Buy

Find digitally fit floor liners for your car with WeatherTech here: www.weathertec...
The 2024 Porsche Cayenne S ($149,770 as specced in Canada, $129,820 in the US) is now back in V8 format after several years of V6 power. But how does it compare to the cheapest V8 of yesteryear we could find, a 2009 Porsche Cayenne S being sold for just $10,995 in Canada (~$7,970 USD converted). The new Cayenne S boasts some serious power and can be optioned to the moon, but the older Cayenne has some rugged character and costs less than just a few options on the new one. How far has the Cayenne come in 15 years? Thomas and James are excited to find out! We hope you enjoy the episode! And then subscribe, silly.

I love my '15 Cayenne SEH, just about to hit 100k miles and my total repair expense (not counting regular maintenance/ consumables) is $0.13 for a resistor for a failed pedestrian alert speaker. Also the flex discs on the driveshaft were replaced as part of a TSB under previous ownership. I am of the opinion that Cayennes are the most complete car on the market (did you know they tow 7,700 lbs, more than any other SUV or small truck, a tacoma is only good for 6,800 for context). Also a correction to a misconception, the cayennes have actually become even more capable offroaders with each generation, its just that with the 958 gen they switched from a manual two speed transfer case to an automatic torque vectoring one. Find me another car capable of swallowing the whole family plus luggage for a two week vacation that has the NVH of an S class, handles like a sports sedan, has real steering feel, does 60 in under 5, is as reliable as a Toyota, can tow a large boat, and has the fit and finish of a Porsche. Also my SEH is returning ~31-32 mpg lifetime average. The V8 in the new S is the ea825 btw, flash tune gives you 725 hp, add an intake and intercoolers and its good for 830, and with tte1020 hybrid turbos it can make 930 hp pump gas without other mods, total cost of about $9k installed including intercoolers intake and tune.

Porsche is just something else, I'm feeling the best days of my life every day nowadays, the sound, drive, interior, everything is perfectly balanced. A couple of days ago, they loaned me a 992 Carrera GTS for two days to get the sports exhaust fitted in my Cayenne, I wouldn't have the 911 in ugly British roads by any means. It's meant for tracking, but I do only long distances. The guy who drove the Cayenne to pick up the GTS told me that he thinks likewise. Cayenne is a perfect package for daily driving.

Getting the older one so cheap does leave plenty of room to make a handful of repairs & some updates, changes or upgrades. So even if you find a nice clean one for $10-15k & dump another $5-10k you're in for $15-25k & then you likely have a really nice sorted Porsche. As all who've owned or driven any Porsche knows that any well sorted Porsche is an amazing piece of machinery & they are just on a whole other level than most others. Every Porsche makes you a fan over & over again.

I can't afford a new one, so I can't afford a used one.

[@snakeeyes9246]

A 958 Cayenne is definitely a better buy than a 955 or 957.

The Mad Mats bits are now the hardest I’ve laughed in these videos, right next to James smacking his head twice on the i8.

I just wondering when in 2044 someone compare this old 2024 Cayenne with the new one and like "LOL THEY HAD THAT ANCIEND USB TYPE C AND EMI ENDUCTION WIRELESS CHARGING LOL THATS DINOSAUR TECHNOLOGY!!11"

[@GrahamSmith1616]

I don’t care about new Porsche Cayennes, and I have no interest in old ones. In fact I’m not that fussed about most cars, especially supercars. I’m here - with alarming regularity - for the great quality filming, excellent music choices, razor sharp editing and delightful chemistry. But mostly because it’s so funny so often. It could be Lawnmower House for all I care, I’d still tune in, love it, and then forget to give it a like. This is the future version of television that we ended up not getting. Thank you.

I just picked up an 08 GTS for 8500. And it is pretty dang mint, Air suspension, dynamic suspension, tiptronic, pano roof, excellent maintenance

[@LEMONSTERPLAYSPUBG]

How are you liking it so far? I’m gonna check out a 09 GTS with 80k miles.

[@gadgetdealz]

Seems to have all the normal Porsche issues. Wonder how they keep their value with all the dissolving plastic, and expensive maintenance. Little things fall apart for no reason except cheap materials in manufacturing. Drives very well for an AWD SUV. But MercedesML550 AMG same year is better as far as quiet, smooth, less costly, better fuel mileage euro SUV.

[@5harkbyte460]

@@gadgetdealz Would you buy it again knowing what you know now? I am looking at at 09 GTS

[@gadgetdealz]

I looked at probably 10 of them before I bought this one. There's a huge difference in the maintenance history and upkeep of the vehicles. The nine other ones I wouldn't have bought it all. Interiors all clapped out. Lack of maintenance will cost you more to get the car into good condition then just buying a good one. Unless you want to buy one and try to restore it yourself? Hail damage unfortunately messed up the exterior so I gave the car to my daughter and it's her daily driver.

[@5harkbyte460]

@@gadgetdealz Good contexts. Thank you. The one I am looking at has 30k miles and is a 2-owner. Clean title and all maintenance appears to have been done by a Porsche dealer. I am considering it as a family hauler for a baby to be. Would not be our only vehicle.

'I don't trust you from the back now' and then the headshot. Had me in tears from laughing 😂

OMG the WeatherTech test was the best thing I've seen all week. Absolutely died laughing, and I needed a set for my new truck so went onto there website and got a set, and made sure I selected Throttle House as where I heard about them. Keep it up guys!

I loved the subtle Carmudgeon Show and Smoking Tire Podcast plugs in the new Cayenne interior review section of the video!! Love, Love, LOVE the Old versus New videos! They really are always a little unpredictable, but predictably hilarious!! Please keep up the amazing work Throttle House team!!!

[@Original_Todd]

Bought my 2006 turbo s for $1500, wasn’t running, all it needed was a fuel pump. The interior was still in great condition. It’s crazy how cheap you can find some Porshe models nowadays. I’ve probably put another $2000 in it to get it running like a champ. Best investment in my opinion

[@scott8934]

Honestly I would like this series just the same if they went for like…. A 3 years old 50k mile example too not just THE CHEAPEST ONE AVAILABLE. Would be interested to see that initial depreciation trade off as well. Or maybe a last gen comparison.

[@AdventuresofGraywolf]

Some of us actually take our 955/958 cayennes off road. It would be very interesting to see both of these on sports car racing and off road testing (with the same tires)

[@LifeatSpeed]

You guys never fail to deliver! Absolutely love the old/new comparison videos you do, and while I could care less about the Cayenne in general, I absolutely loved the video! And the Mad Mat skit, was beyond the icing on the cake! Keep it up!

The nice thing about the older one is you get cylinder wall scoring at no extra cost! 😅

[@mattabell3657]

The new vs old series is great. I purchased a 2007 911 Carrera 4 last month for under 40k US and it is a riot. My first Porsche and was cheaper than my Focus RS. There’s lots of value in a nicely maintained older car.

Hits home. Just bought a 2006 Cayenne S Titanium for $6k USD. Put in 4k to replace a leaking valve cover gasket, new plugs, coils, all fluids changed, etc. Car has 148k miles. Drove it from PA to FL (1000 miles) to be a temporary car at the 2nd house. Its optioned nicely including air suspension. Body is mostly good except for a few spots but overall the car is a 6/7 out of 10. On the bright side, it hasn't burned a drop of oil and it runs well. Its typical German w/ a few electrical glitches - radio and cruse deceides when and IF they want to work. Sometimes yes....sometimes no. Yeah, seat backs fell off. Seems to be a VERY common issue. A bit of epoxy on the brackets, problem solved. Also have a 2012 Range Rover w/ 100k miles I bought 4 years ago with only 55k on it. God, I MUST be glutten for punishment in my car choices. Never learn - this coming from someone who had 2 93 Rx-7s and later decided to buy an Rx-8 for a "family car".........never learn :)

[@rahulmandala4930]

Awesome work as always! I will say that regarding the clinical feel of the Cayennes and how they’ve remained to that, you guys need to test a 957/958 generation GTS, these have so much character and excitement in them! They go like stink and handle beautifully!

[@samuellang9761]

[@spadds]

The abuse and neglect of the 2009 model, is not a Porsche issue. All vehicles need maintenance and upkeep to ensure they remain fully functional. I know where I would be putting my money, and that would be $15k, on a nicer, cared for example of the older model. Incidentally, this 15k would equate to just 50% of the depreciation you'd see in the first 36 months of ownership of the new vehicle. Talk about throwing money away. Rich people spend money smartly, that's why they are rich. Thanks for posting, really enjoyed this.

[@paulsinel515]

Can’t argue…..you guys are priceless: love the humour, the analysis, the tracking, old / new, etc. Suggestion: how about comparing brand similar EV to ICE - ie Volvo to Volvo, Ford - Mustang to Mustang, F150 to Lightning Jaguar to Jaguar,etc, etc. Thanks for keeping me hooked.

I prefer the 2009 over 2024. Something about the ruggedness I love. I'd tow with it, camp with it and eat take out in it. The 2024 wouldn't even want to sneeze in it because its so nice.
