Owning a 2009 Porsche Cayenne Turbo S isn’t for the faint of heart — or wallet.

In this video, I walk through every receipt from the past year, covering issues, maintenance, and a few cosmetic upgrades that brought my total to $24,193. From diagnosing unknown issues to some dreaded big-ticket items, this is the real-world cost of keeping a 957 Turbo S on the road in 2025.

There’s no such thing as a “cheap Porsche.” Whether it’s performance, reliability, or maintenance, every part of ownership comes with a price — and this video breaks it all down.
