An intrepid Jalopnik photographer/impersonator gathered up his best Ferdie Piëch and snuck behind the scenes at the Porsche booth to catch the new Cayenne GTS unawares and uncloaked. The mid-level porker SUV will be revealed officially later today, slotting between the Cayenne S and Cayenne Turbo as part of Porsche's ever-widening niche-fulfillment strategy (see what I did there?).

More later. galleryPost('doanecayennegtsprereveal', 6, 'Porsche Cayenne GTS Pre-Reveal');

But if the Turbo is out of your price range but a recent stock split means you can do better than the basic Cayenne S, the GTS might be for you. Press release below the jump. galleryPost('cayennegts1', 3, 'Porsche Cayenne GTS'); 2008 PORSCHE CAYENNE GTS PHOTO, PRICING REVEALED ATLANTA, January 29, 2008 - Porsche will add some spice to the 100th anniversary of the Chicago Auto Show by unveiling the Cayenne GTS to the American public.
