The tech has improved significantly since 06 though, so I'm sure later PASM systems are much better. I'm not sure what system the Cayenne uses, and I've never driven one.
The system on the Cayenne is pretty decent. The last one I drove was in DC, and it wasnt enough to sway me. However, it might have been different if I had driven it here.

And I would have gone with PASM and full Air suspension.
