I’m not usually one who likes a vehicle that attracts too much attention, but ... I really like this machine. Especially in that paint/wrap(?) scheme. What a fun experience. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.
This is a smart way to repurpose an older vehicle. We used to own a 2003 Passat Station Wagon with 4 Motion, the Audi 3.0 6 Cylinder and the Porsche Tip-Tronic gearbox. That car was a beast! I could see it lifted and equipped like that! Zack, yet a new kind of review, very nice addition to the channel. You are doing a great job and Corcars is a great contributor / partner. I am really enjoying all the reviews you and Andrea are putting out. Thank you. You manage to make us forget about the COVID restrictions. Quite an achievement!
I bought my '04 Cayenne Turbo four years used. I''ve enjoyed it all those years. So far I've just replaced the Porsche console with a Kenwood so now I have all the modern gadgets including back up camera, Sirius, wifi, 3D GPS, etc. Probably going to do skid plates next and get a pop up roof bed. Light bars. The engine and drive line kick so much ass that not much you can do except install a snorkel. Take out the back seats for more gear. Gen 1 Cayenne's are definitely undervalued.
I've got a bigger lift and did a little cutting to fit 35's, it's still very dailiable!! Road noise from mud tires and a bit more fuel are the only noticeable differences. Handles fine and is a blast off pavement
I have this exact model... I bought the Eurowise 3" lift... overland vibes going on with it... roof rack, cargo basket, traction boards, and all my tools along with compressor and welding machine...absolutely love my Cayenne
I love how this dude is talking about how tough the conditions are and the lift and suspension on the Porsche and at the 3:31 mark there is a stock Subaru Wagon lol
What a cool vehicle this is. Thank you for sharing. These can be very capable vehicles off road. The same is true with the VW Touareg, which the Cayenne platform shares. The VR6 is very durable as well vs the V8 option.
I love the idea of that Cayenne with the nice comfy air suspension. I'm curious to know how often the air suspension needs to be serviced on that generation.
when I was ordering mine, the dealer had to hold me down from ordering a manual transmission. well, here we are, today and people want manuals lol go figure
The VW Touareg, of that generation, is basically the same vehicle as the Cayenne and, if you look hard enough, you can get a Touareg with locking front AND rear differentials -- along with the locking center diff. I like the look of the Touareg much better too!
Unfortunately, VW falls apart with the interiors as far as this generation is concerned anyways. The Cayenne is a infinitely better place to spend your time if that's a concern.
I had my ‘06 Touareg V8 for 15 years. I also have an ‘05 Cayenne S and an ‘06 Cayenne Turbo and I can say hands down that the Cayenne is superior in every way. I do miss my Touareg though.
Zack, Great review! I love everything Porsche. E-Motion Engineering in California have built Safari 911’s and a diesel Cayenne overland. Check out emotionengineering.com. Love you guys.
To each their own, but I'd suggest not getting the v6. It's very underpowered in the Cayenne and is not much, if any more reliable than the V8. From what I've heard from other owners and my mechanic, the v6 tends to be even less reliable than both the v8 and v8 turbo.
25 to 50? No man, they go under 10k. Unless you're talking about build one already, but still this is to much, I got 05 V8 S for 6500.. Not 50k.kidding me? 50k can get you 2016 cayenne or even 2018
What kind of track are you talking about, because that Porsche will put your Tacoma to shame EVERYWHERE except rock crawling and reliability. It won Dakar amongst many other rallies. This all comin from a Toyota fanboy, Toyota's are all I own. Your comment is silly.

Couldn't agree more!

I want this vehicle! Would be my daily driver!
Do you live on a mountainside or... a desert? LOL

@@kellingtonlink956 lol with potholes and messed up roads this thing would be so much fun

you deserve more subscribers. this content is top notch!
Glad you think so!
Love the videos with ur wife, but I am glad you are still doing a series on your own. Thanks. Being following your content for ~20yrs!
Awesome!

Интересные автомобили и хорошие тест-драйв

Thanks for watching!
Aswell as the Audi Q7😁
Porsche safari builds are a thing, but this is just putting a hat on a hat.
I love the idea of that Cayenne with the nice comfy air suspension. I'm curious to know how often the air suspension needs to be serviced on that generation.
just watch the compressors blow but a simple o ring fix. suspension air bags expensive
I can see myself using this for winter use only! I love it but mine would not have all the livery that this one has. Great catch Zach!
So awesome Zack
Love it! Sadly, where I live it very flat so I'd have to travel about 6 hours to have fun with it.
I believe this was built down the street from me. There is a blue one as well. I have an 957 Turbo, but going more street performance lol.
when I was ordering mine, the dealer had to hold me down from ordering a manual transmission. well, here we are, today and people want manuals lol go figure
Superb !
Thank you! Cheers!
This is becoming a thing with every thing from a Honda Civic to a Volvo station wagon
it just works lol
In the description there’s a typo.. 3 speed transfer case?
Great info👍🏻
The original Trans-Syberia was an automatic gearbox, despite what is said in the beginning, unfortunate as it is.
Thank you.

@@flyinb45 Really? I think the interior of the Touareg is its best asset... I love all the buttons!

the wheels is 18 inches or 20 inches?
I've always wanted to do this with a Macan.. Sure it's not the Original Cayenne Transsyberia but you always want to be different, I always say..
Is this located in BC?
Parts list?
I would respectfully say the whole Safari Porsches started with Leeh Keen Project 911
Nah. Porsche themselves did it first, and Tuthilll has been doing it for ages.
@@sarahdell4042 you are right. Mr Tuthill has done it before
What’s your email, to email car photos for the live show. I heard it a dozen times but when I email you it says it’s wrong.
How can I get one made for me?
Contact Cor Motorcars. www.corcars.com
Diesels are best over here in the UK. The petrol use way too much fuel.
But the transyberians had two spare tires in the trunk🤷♂️
But only 2 seats
I checked out when you said VR6, I’ll stay way the hell away from that motor.
You obviously don't know anything about how reliable this engine is!
@@Motormouth... I guess I don’t, I’ve heard they’re a pain to work on rather a traditional v6. But I could be wrong.
The V6 model wouldn’t be able to go up many hills… too heavy, small engine 😅 V8 all the way.
No way man. My vr6 crawls 50° inclines with ease.
Agreed. The 3.2 is underpowered.

I believe the owner has a trailer towing a 911
It’s cheaper to do all this to a jeep.
Yeah, but then you just have a Jeep

Looks like an Audi from behind.
Thanks but I will stick with my Tacoma TRD Pro. Porsche should stick to track cars.
