So, I'm deciding between a Cayenne Diesel and a Cayenne GTS. Very different models I know, but here we are. So I can either get a Diesel, loaded to the gills with options, or a GTS with decent amount of options. I will list them both here, and hope you guys could help me decide.

The Cayenne Diesel has an option list that is almost worth as much as the base car itself.

So your views are much appreciated guys!

Nope, no towing. Just planning to use as a daily driver, and occasional highway trips.

I went with the GTS, comes in January or February but I would have NEVER considered the diesel. As far as burmester, if you are going to drive the car for years and you are a big audio freak, then go for it...otherwise, its not worth the extra money and it doesnt hold up the resale that much believe it or not.

Why not the Diesel S?

382HP, 850NM of torque.. you go faster than GTS

Sportdesign package + GTS/TT/TTS front bumper and you have the top you can have!

Faster than GTS but with better consumption.

The new Porsche Cayenne GTS: Purist - YouTube
About the sound of the exhaust there is no doubt.. you are right!
But, seen what he sayd, I think the better solution for him would be the diesel S. You have a diesel and you go fast than a S/GTS. What else?

Ops, I didn't know this. I hope Porsche will introduce it soon
