So hard to tell the difference between the two colors when not in the sunlight. The amethyst is a bit more purple, and the mahogany is more chocolate, but it changes with the light. Lovely color regardless!
I like the combination of rims and paint! Definitely going to do some tests on mine to see if I like it.
Yeah, I was on the fence a long time deciding whether to go for the Cayenne or the 6. Efficiency is about the same, but diesel’s cheap here – about a 1/3 cheaper than gas – and the comfort of the Cayenne just barely outweighed the pluses of the Mazda (reliability, warranty).
Retrospect will tell me how wise a decision this was (I’ve got my fingers crossed for the Cayenne).
My previous daily was a 2015 Mazda 3. Fuel efficient, fun enough in the curves, dead reliable. I was considering a new Mazda 6 as my next daily, but found a sweet deal on a low mileage Cayenne Diesel.
Looks nice! Mahogany metallic? Do you have any pictures of the wheels prior? I’ve got a Cayenne painted in that color and I’m debating a wheel color change.
I’ve got both a first-gen and second gen Cayenne. I really like both, but for their own reasons. The 2014 is low miles (42k) and fuel efficient. The diesel motor is smooth and lots of torque.
The 2010 Turbo is higher miles (100k) and not fuel efficient in the slightest. It’s definitely more of a special experience than the 2014 (leather’s nicer? interior feel is more upscale? not sure), and the power is errr… enough to scare the wife.
Both are very comfy rides when in comfort mode. The 2014 feels more controlled in sport mode, with less abrupt movements.
