Overview

The Cayenne S Titanium Edition is a borderline “concept” car, as it was only available for 1 year in the US & Canadian market. The car is before the GTS, and this is why I refer to it as an “almost concept”, as it paved the way for some of the changes found in that more powerful model. This special edition is, at it’s core, a Cayenne S which has some tweaks. In the Titanium Edition, Porsche use lightweight materials, with a steel body and an aluminium bonnet. The car comes fully equipped with all of the most popular optional extras from the standard Cayenne S. These include: bi-xenon headlamps, 19-inch Cayenne Design wheels, unique interior color options, front and rear heated seats, heated side mirrors, silver-trimmed instruments, Porsche Communication Management (PCM) tinted glass in back and Porsche navigation system. Throughout the car you will also find badges for the Titanium Edition.

The exterior has lots of trim areas painted in “Titanium Metallic” such as the roof spoiler, roof rails, window trims, wheels and side trims. The car also has 2 new unique paint choices: Pure Red and Iceland Silver Metallic.
