Cayenne Turbo - Fast, Clean, Reliable on 2040-cars
Seattle, Washington, United States
|
Hello all and thank you for watching.
After 2 years of wonderful ownership, I have decided to sell my 2004 Cayenne. I bought the car with 63,000 miles at Grand Prix Motors in Portland Oregon, and I have used it as my daily commuter in Seattle (highway). it has always been garaged and very very well maintained, and that's important... jump to details below... I usually keep my cars for about a year. I have owned several 911s (964, 996 and 997), as well as many other cars (Range Rovers, Jags,...). It is the first time I keep a car this long and in a very weird way, it is one of the hardest to let go. The thing is the cayenne turbo has multiple personalities. You can dial exactly the type of ride that suits your mood... or the road. The Power is amazing, the supple leather seats are comfortable for hours, the sound system with the added iPod/iphone 5 plug is truly great. But more importantly, with the suspension settings, when you are tired or don't feel like having too much fun, keep it in high mode with the shocks on comfort and just cruise. I would call it the Range Rover mode. If you feel like you need a bit more precision, set it in normal and it will ride like a sedan. A 5 series comes to mind.... Now, set it in sport and kick in the manual transmission and it becomes a very engaging and raging car, especially in higher RPM... thrilling... Not quite a 911... don't believe what they say... but it gives a guilty kind of pleasure to be able to go so fast and turn sharp with a beast like that. A bit about the car. If you do not know much about the cayenne, I would strongly suggest going to rennlist.org and reading everything there is to be read about them. They are amazing cars, truly, but a few things need to be done to them. If you know about the cayenne, please note that everything has been done to this car: Valve body joint, cooling pipes and cooling tank, coils, AC and headlights have been fixed, cardan shaft and much more. I will deliver the car with all the invoices and a fresh PPI done at Akers Porsche in Seattle. Mark knows all my cars and can attest to what was done to the cayenne. This car is a bit special too: note the 20" Original Techart Wheels with Yokohama Parada Tyres with about 80% of life on them. Brand new front rotors and pads (rear are about 60%). I have added the Dension IPhone system (amazing). I have also changed the original steering wheel for a aluminum/leather flat bottom GTS wheel to match the trim. it provides a much thicker and better handle... perfect for spirited drive... driving a normal cayenne with the OEM wheel is a pain after this one! The color combination is pretty sweet too. I have always been a fan of contrast. Silver gray and Tan is really cool in my opinion and it is also pretty rare. One of the wheels unfortunately has a bit a rash on it. I will see to fix it before the car goes. I am a true enthusiast and a long time Porsche fan and owner. I have always been respectful of my cars and new owners who bought from me have always been very happy. You can look me up at 911passion on Rennlist. Thanks for reading and please let me know if you have any questions. Pierre. |

Evo pits BMW M3 against Porsche Macan in drag battle
Sun, 24 Aug 2014If you want to move five passengers in very rapid fashion and you've got a $75,000 budget, two newly introduced four-door models immediately come to mind - both are the highest performing vehicles in their respective segments. But which is faster off the line, to the 60-mile-per-hour benchmark or flat-out over an even longer run? Evo took both to paved aircraft runway to find out.
In lane one we've got the all-new Porsche Macan Turbo, which boasts a twin-turbocharged, 3.6-liter V6 rated at 400 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque. The Porsche is fitted with a seven-speed, dual-clutch gearbox, and the 4,244-pound crossover has the traction advantage of standard all-wheel drive. In lane two is the all-new BMW M3, powered by a twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline-six rated at 425 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque. It is also equipped with a seven-speed, dual-clutch gearbox, but only the rear wheels of the 3,595-pound sedan are driven. Both the BMW and Porsche arrive with launch control, which helps to remove driver error off the line.
Which automaker's launch control system is better off the line? Does all-wheel-drive grip give the crossover the advantage it needs to overcome its adversary's power-to-weight advantage? Will aerodynamics factor into the results? Which would you put in your garage, and why? The video may surprise you.
2014 Porsche Cayenne Platinum Edition is the ace of base
Tue, 14 Jan 2014If there's one automaker that certainly doesn't skimp on the special edition models, it's Porsche, and here at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show, we're getting our first look at yet another unique take on one of the company's most popular models. It's called the Cayenne Platinum Edition, and while many special models build off of higher-trim vehicles, this one adds a bit of flair to the most basic version of the luxury SUV.
The Platinum Edition is available on Cayennes with the base 3.6-liter V6 or the 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6. Platinum models are set apart from other models with the addition of silver exterior accents on the grilles, window trim and rear spoiler, as well as the two-tone, black-and-beige interior scheme. It also comes standard with the eight-speed Tiptronic S transmission, Power Steering Plus, Park Assist, the Convenience Package and Bose audio.
The cost of entry? $63,000 for the naturally aspirated Cayenne or $66,900 for the diesel. That's a full $13,000 more than the base model, but Porsche says it's actually a bargain as opposed to selecting all of those options individually. Have a look below for Porsche's official release.
Jaguar F-Type squares off against Porsche 911, Aston V8 Vantage with Chris Harris
Fri, 21 Jun 2013Chris Harris is back on the job, taking on really really difficult car questions like: Which enormously sexy and good-to-drive, high-performance convertible is the top of the heap? As one of the hottest cars in the luxury space right now, the Jaguar F-Type S is, of course, in on the action. Competition comes in the form of the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster and the Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet. Sun-loving CEOs who despise test-driving need look no further.
Scroll on below for a fully featured (with a running time of more than 20 minutes) comparison video. Harris does his best to entertain - in a typically nitpicky and made-up-British-words fashion - and the moving pictures are lovely to look at. Kick back, pour a pint and get your weekend started off right.
