Turbo vs. Base - Porsche 958 Cayenne
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 дек 2018
- As my 911 has just been put to bed for the winter, it's time to get out and have some fun in the Cayenne. In this video we look at how the Base version of the Porsche 958 Cayenne stacks up against the Turbo. We have my black 2011 Cayenne Base (958.1) alongside my friend's white 2016 Cayenne Turbo (958.2).
A huge thank you to Chris for the use of his Turbo and also for being a good sport, making his debut appearance in one my videos here which I hope won't be his last!
As ever, thanks for all the comments and support. Have a great time over the festive period and I hope you enjoy the video! HO HO HO!!

The base is exponentially more reliable and a fraction the maintenance cost.
its not a PDK (Porsche Doppel Kupplung)
its a 8-Speed auto from ZF
correct. I'm glad someone noticed it!
Bah!! I didn’t know that. Good spot Porsche friends! 😆
@@AutoAmateur
That's actually a good thing, it means the ZF is really as quick as they say (even though it could never be as quick as a PDK).
Moreover a ZF is definitely a better choice than a PDK when it comes to towing and offroad, that's why it's a standard equipment on Cayennes.
@@Davide1709 I didn't know that! Thanks so much. Makes sense for the towing and off-roading. Nice one! Cheers.
It's an Aisin transmission
In terms of looks I much rather prefer pre-facelift models, esp. the GTS. They just look so much more like classic Porsches with the triangular bonnet and those flat headlamps. The only thin I prefer about 958.2 are the rear light.
Great video, James! Love the red leather in the Turbo
Thanks Bucky!! Yeah, the red on black looks so so cool, especially with the deviated stitching in the dash.
Like the video buddy. I have a remapped, upgraded exhaust & plenum 957 turbo and it is stunning. Always have a smile like yours when mash the right foot lol
Hahaha. That’s awesome!! Very cool.
Great vid. I owned 957 base, and drive 958 turbo. It’s a huge difference and absolutely different cars. Also, winter tires significantly slow the acceleration.. you should try turbo in summer 🙂✊🏼
Holy crap that must be amazing!! 🤣🔥🔥🔥
I never knew that song was an ode to base model Porsche’s and a dis towards the Turbo. Makes total sense now!! “It’s all about that base, ‘bout that base, no Turbo!!”
I’m a sucker for red interiors. I very recently traded my Accord for a Lexus GS F Sport with the red interior. Had the red interior in my e46 M3. Do want a red interior in my future 997, but not complete red, just seats and door cards similar to that Cayenne Turbo. Anyways, looking forward to the next video, especially since I wasn’t expecting anything until next years driving season. In the meanwhile, Merry Christmas!!
Hahahaha. If you listen closely enough you can hear she also says “no Turbo” not “no treble”. 😉🤷♂️
Auto Amateur I’m forever gonna think of this video whenever I hear that song now! Great marketing for your channel!
Hahahaha. Nice.
Ps. Merry Christmas to you!
I think you need the Turbo. A late 997.1 Turbo manual ! Nice 👍. btw ...RUclips has decided that i shouldn't receive notifications from your channel so i keep missing your uploads!
Oh no! Dopey RUclips. It’s funny though, the same thing has been happening with a lot of channels I subscribe to as well! Not yours though thankfully! Merry Christmas! 🎄🎅🏻

OMG! That song at the beginning had me chuckling! :D So are you getting all turbo Porsches now? And wow, that Cayenne is so clean. Makes me want to go out and clean my 911 with some MF towels and cotton balls for the next 5 hours.
I need to spend more time driving and less time cleaning. 😂
I am suppose to tell you...You have officially driven my car 1 more time than my wife.
Hahahahahah. No way?!?!
2016 958.2 turbo with a $400 completely tame burger jb4 tune and it's a sub 4 second 0-60. These are massively overbuilt and underrated. with a softronics tune they are screamers. More reliable than a chevy truck, even with air suspension and twin turbos
How does the air suspension compare to the base model in the different settings?
My dream car. I almost bought a used one, but 100k mikes scared me away.
The pdk is soooo slick
yes so slick it never made it to a cayenne
😂 true.
Deciding this right now. Bases in my area as low as 15k. Turbo? 28. S is still also around the 25 mark
I wouldn’t get a base again, but then at 15k it would be hard to say no to!
@@AutoAmateur headed to look in 2 days. Looking at s's in the 20 range, and a couple turbos right under 30. Not sure which way to go. Gts not really around.
@@Luke-qs2cg were those prices for a 958.1? 958.2?
No PDK in the turbo, same 8 speed tiptronic as the base.
good video, can you please ask your friend where did he get that rear diffuser from with the Porsche logo on it please i really want one on my turbo looks amazing thanks
I will!
Is this what you mean? www.suncoastparts.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=95XHCV&Store_Code=P
Yeah so silly shouldve just googled it thank you so much
Love your work 👍👍👍
Thank you! 🙌
(realizing I'm jumping in on a 4+ yo thread)
Surely of the 60+ comments someone has commented > you wont be disappointed when the Turbo requires addtl shop attention > certainly a premium paid on a few levels for the turbo...as it should be, of course.
2011 S Cayenne V8 here & it's plenty for me > no pricey air suspension to go out either > some say the S is the sweet spot & I have to be in agreement... especially w/the V8.
Disclosure > if I win the lottery you'll surely find me behind a turbo 😜 > until then the V8 will do me just fine tyvm.
I actually now how the 958 S. It’s great!! Still nothing close to the Turbo for speed and sheer thrills though.
Hate the auto start / stop...My BMW X3 35M Sport fortunately has the button to disengage this stupid feature. Nice Ride on the Turbo.
Yeah my base Cayenne has the option but I don’t have to turn it off every time I start the car. I wonder why they didn’t keep that feature in the 2016+ models?
2011 with 2016 as a straight comparison?
You play with what you’ve got!
There is no PDK in the Cayenne ..,
You're right!
Lord, you really wanted to abuse yourself by doing a side by side comparison! Once you’ve been to the big city, you don’t want to go back to the farm. That Turbo is impressive, but do not fret! Go sit inside your 911 and you’ll be ok. 😉
Hahahaha. That’s really funny Jonathan. It was sooooo dull driving my base model home after driving the Turbo. I actually did go home and take the 911 out for a quick spin though. I definitely felt better about life after that. Haha. 😆
can't compare a 958.1 to a 958.2
Yeah you kinda can though. :)
Base looks better come on it’s obvious
You think so? For real?
@@AutoAmateur Yes it does, I really think so.
Sure!!
👎🤣🤣💩😆
you forgot to ad a a to porsche you say porsche you should say porsche"a" porschAH
Ha! Right.
