Porsche Cayenne VS GT86
HEY,
Ok so my parents gave me two options: - A used porsche cayenne/2008 (v6 not a v8) or - A brand new GT86 If i buy the gt86 they will be paying for everything. And if i get the porsche they'll pay for the service and everything else also. So im hoping to read what ur opinions are? Also does anyone know how steering feel compared to each other? Ive driven the porsche, but here in Saudi Arabia we cant test drive the GT86 because we have so many reckless drivers. THANKS IN ADVANCE

well I think you are going to get a bias opinion here. Id get the Gt86! but the Cayenne would make a nice daily driver!
only option my parents ever gave me was wither or not i wanted to have what they are having for supper

Is this real life?
Cayenne or 86? wtf what kind of cross shopping is that Anyway if you think it would make you feel better about yourself to say you have a Porsche and impress your friendd or get laid or something then get the Porsche. If you enjoy driving get the 86. Seems like a pretty easy choice either way... |

Get the GT86, the Cayenne V6 is rubbish.

Even the V8 is only mildly impressive. The Cayenne is just so heavy it only really feels motivated with the Turbo engine.

At first I thought the option was GT86 vs Cayman. Then the decision would be easy.
Both are nice vehicles but so very different. Nobody can make that decision for you but CUV vs sports car, huge difference.

I dislike big cars. GT86 all day. Amazing choices for a car though, I'm jealous.
