Default New Porsche coming to the fleet...

Well.... I am ready for the abuse...

04 Cayenne S, 50K miles, Pretty well loaded... 19 Summer wheels 18" winter.
Full Leather, Nav, Air Suspension, PASM..etc All books, Records, garaged.
It was the CEO of my companies car, I was selling it for him....was offered it a a price I could not refuse. He has a Cayenne Turbo as well as some other nice stuff.

It will replace my Saab as my "beater" Dog and kid hauler.
I have always picked on them, never liked that Porsche built a truck... I don't even really like the way they look but I have to admit it drives really well and that V8 sounds so nice.

My name is Marc and I'm a ....hypocrite.

Pic's for Tim ..it's still on winter wheels.

A 996 and a Cayenne S? You loser!

I love my truck. It is my winter time sweetheart. My Dad won't go in the ***-dragger, but he loves the mistress.

Nice. Looks like you've got the air suspension on a CS? Well-optioned indeed.

So get over and learn what everyone is trying to scare ya about.

Actually, it looks great, I will tell you Zaino is the stuff for black. Hard to tell but it looks a little dirty

I am sure you will have a great run with it.....
Hey and who knows, maybe the truck guys will start waving when they see another p-CAR

Wtg Marc!

That is a very nice truck Marc. I would be all over that if it was a 7 passenger with a diesel power plant. There are pepper owners with over 100K+ miles who cannot find a replacement except a new pepper. I think you will really like it.

I've been contemplating doing the same myself. It's either do this, or upgrade to a 997tt for me. Just waiting around to see what the economy does. She looks great! I'm thinking two is always better than one.
