PORSCHE CPO with $132K Original Sticker…………….

 

2011 Porsche CPO Cayenne Turbo with Porsche Warranty until 100k miles or April 14, 2017. Nearly every conceivable option and all the important ones - as shown on the build sheet (see photos for details)………beautiful car…… owned by a Porsche devotee, no stories, always garaged, no paint, smoke etc.


What an amazing vehicle.  I purchased this CPO Cayenne from “The Exchange” – an authorized Porsche dealer located just outside Chicago.  I had been driving a 2006 Porsche Cayenne Turbo “S” that I was completely in love with (was still flawless with 118k miles…..) until I drove the 2011 Turbo……….an incredible leap forward in every way – performance, aesthetics, electronics, comfort and the BURMESTER -  if you like music just wait to you hear this stereo - it is rated as the #1 audio system available in a stock auto….. and see the interior………. Spectacular.

This vehicle has had no paint, no smoking, no bodywork etc.  Please note that this is a “used car” there are a few door dings and small stone chips that are hard to see and do not show up well in the photographs and a small spot the size of a nickel that is also hard to see in the photos on the rear bumper when someone "unknown" backed into it in a supermarket parking lot (leaving me with a cracked tail lens that I replaced).  Therefore I give the body a 9.5/10, the vehicle mechanically is a 10/10 – the interior is flawless and is easily a 10/10 and actually with the two-tome option it is better than 10/10 – purely gorgeous. 

I have both the summer carpets plus Porsche winter mats for the car and oil/filter and new tires were all done by Porsche at 29,000 miles – car was always Porsche serviced.  There is no curb rash on the wheels and the car is completely ready to be driven.

The mileage in the photos is the actual mileage as of today however I still use this car as my daily driver hence I added miles yet to be driven and this is the difference with the listing mileage.

I welcome and encourage all inspections, test drives etc.  – and here is a piece from Car and Driver on the 2011 Turbo…….. feel free to send me your questions - Eric

 

2011 Porsche Cayenne Turbo

Would purists have cried foul if the first Cayenne had been this good?

The torch-bearing mobs of outraged 911 purists have long since retreated from the gates of Porsche’s various corporate outposts, so we can only speculate that had this new Cayenne been the original offering back in 2003—rather than the ungainly original—initial response might have been more uniformly positive.

Then again, maybe not.

Be that as it may, here’s the Turbo version of the second generation, distinctly more attractive and better in about every way imaginable. Better in terms of usefulness, as in roomier. Better in terms of operating costs, as in improved fuel economy. Better in terms of dynamics, as in a more sophisticated balance between ride and response.

Defying Physics

Although the Cayenne’s improved appearance and superb interior are the elements that will attract eyeballs, a glance at the specs is also informative.

The second-gen edition is bigger in almost every dimension. It has a longer wheelbase (growing from 112.4 inches to 114.0), is longer overall (from 188.9 to 190.8), and is a smidge taller (from 66.8 to 67.0). The only diminished dimensions are width (from 77.0 to 76.3) and track, which shrinks at both ends—from 65.4 to 64.7 in the front and from 66.0 to 65.2 at the rear.

Yet the most remarkable entry in the new Cayenne’s specifications chart has to do with mass. Yes, like the other members of Clan Cayenne, the new Turbo is bigger. And like the others, it’s also substantially lighter. The last-gen Cayenne Turbo S, which finished second in our most recent comparison of high-end super-utes—falling to the BMW X5 M and besting the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 and the supercharged Range Rover Sport—weighed in at 5305 pounds.

This latest test unit is 178 pounds lighter. And it’s 498 pounds lighter than the Cayenne Turbo we tested in September 2007. For sure, it’s certainly no wraith, but in an automotive world that registers weight gains with almost every vehicle redesign, score this one as laudable for Porsche.

The Cost of Pruning

As you’d expect, the Turbo’s rigorous diet entailed painstaking reengineering of various components—a new aluminum valve-timing adjuster, for example, is 3.8 pounds lighter than the previous piece—and more comprehensive use of lightweight materials, which add up to a minus at the scales. As you’d also expect, the use of lighter-weight materials, such as aluminum, magnesium, and composites, adds up at the cash register.

The base price for the previous Cayenne Turbo was $100,875, and $127,275 was required for the Turbo S. The new Turbo starts at $106,975, and there is no Turbo S version, at least not yet. However, aside from customers with an insatiable desire for excess in every category, almost everyone else should find that this vehicle satisfies his or her need for speed.

The Numbers

The new Turbo delivers its go power with distinctly improved fuel economy. Although the output of the 4.8-liter twin-turbo aluminum V-8 is unchanged from that of the first-gen model, at 500 hp and 516 lb-ft of torque, the combination of less weight, numerous mechanical and electronic tweaks, and a new eight-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission gives the new Turbo fuel-economy ratings of 15 mpg city and 22 highway, up from 12/19.

 Proving once again that reduced mass is at least as important as horsepower in all-around performance, the new Turbo’s performance rivals the old Turbo S’s (which had 550 hp and 553 lb-ft of torque) at the test track: 0 to 60 mph in 4.0 seconds, the quarter-mile in 12.4 at 113 mph. The Turbo S hit those marks in 4.1 and 12.6 at 112, respectively; the previous Cayenne Turbo needed 4.8 seconds to reach 60 mph and 13.3 seconds for the quarter, at 107 mph.

Seduced, as usual, by the hydraulic torque surge of the Cayenne’s twin-turbo V-8, we achieved 15 mpg during our driving. But it’s clear that a more temperate use of the throttle would produce better results. Beyond three different driver-selected modes (normal, sport, and off-road), the eight-speed Tiptronic is programmed to adapt to the driver’s throttle behavior and adjust its shifts accordingly. Regardless of the chosen mode, the transmission’s shift response rivals that of many dual-clutch automatics.

Mass Management and the Inside Story

In the aforementioned comparison test, all hands were impressed by how well the Cayenne handled its substantial curb weight, and the biggest Porsche impresses even more in that regard in its lighter second generation. Cornering attitudes are level, grip is tenacious at 0.90 g, transient response is eager, and ride quality is firmly compliant, even in the adjustable suspension’s sport setting.

Beyond that, the steering is tactile and quick at 2.7 turns lock-to-lock, a marked improvement over the slightly numb setup in last year’s Turbo S. Braking, always a Porsche strong suit, is outstanding at 158 feet from 70 mph. If there’s any fault to be found with the Cayenne’s dynamics, it’s in the ambient noise levels, as in, “Omigod, I’m doing 90 in a 50 zone!” It’s quiet in there – too quiet.

We previously described the interior of the Cayenne Turbo S as “princely,” and that applies here as well: outstanding materials, intelligent control location and design, and form-fitting seats with a vast range of adjustability. The forward sightlines, enhanced by slender A-pillars, may be best in class, and vision in all quarters is excellent. Almost as important, there’s more room inside—including for second-row occupants, augmented by adjustable seats—and more room for cargo, a weak point in the previous Cayenne.

The Value Question

Given the state of the world economy, fuel prices, and mutinous rumblings from the green sector, it’s hard to defend vehicles like this. Even though the Cayenne's towing capability remains strong at 7716 pounds, its fuel economy has improved, and its general usefulness index is higher, the idea that something weighing more than 2.5 tons needs to cover a quarter-mile in 12.4 seconds is a tough sell to the guy driving a Prius. For that matter, it’s a bit of a tough sell among the super-utes, where the BMW X5 M checks in with a base price of only—only—$86,575.

Does that disparity bother you? If so, we suggest you avoid test-driving the Cayenne Turbo. We suspect that after a half-hour behind the wheel, your sense of value will be altered

Porsche to reveal Cayman GT4 Clubsport racer in LA

Tue, Oct 6 2015

Aspiring professionals and amateur gentleman racers alike will want to swing by the Porsche booth at the LA Auto Show this year. That's where the German automaker will be revealing its new entry-level racer. The Porsche Cayman GT4 Clubsport is nearly stock, but features some choice upgrades to cater its disposition toward the racetrack. Power comes from the same 3.8-liter flat-six as the road-going Cayman GT4 (shown above), producing the same 385 horsepower. It ditches the manual, however, for the faster-shifting DCT (which we expect will soon be offered on the showroom version as well), aided by a mechanical locking differential. It features the front suspension setup from the 911 GT3 Cup car and beefed-up steel brakes. It's also got a roll cage inside and a racing bucket with a six-point harness. All told, the whole package weighs 2,866 pounds – making it a good hundred pounds lighter than the street-legal model on which it's so closely based. Once homologation is complete, customers will be able to field it in series like the Pirelli World Challenge, Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge, and Pirelli GT3 Cup Trophy. Porsche has yet to release images, but we'll be sure to update this post as soon as they're available – so watch this space. New race car for motorsport newcomers Porsche develops Cayman GT4 Clubsport Stuttgart. Using the lightweight Cayman GT4 as the basis, Porsche Motorsport has developed a near-standard racing version. The Cayman GT4 Clubsport celebrates its world premiere at the Los Angeles Motor Show on 18 November. Sales of the 283 kW (385 hp) mid-engine racer for motorsport newcomers also start on this date. Just like its race-worthy production sibling, the Cayman GT4 Clubsport is powered by a 3.8-litre flat-six engine. The racing version features a Porsche double clutch transmission with shift paddles on the steering wheel and a mechanical rear-axle locking differential. The lightweight suspension strut front axle is taken from its big 911 GT3 Cup brother, which is campaigned in Porsche's 20 one-make championships around the world. The impressive racing brake system is fitted with steel brake discs all round measuring 380-millimetre in diameter. Tipping the scales at just 1,300 kilograms, the Cayman GT4 Clubsport, delivered ex-works with a welded-in safety cage, a racing bucket seat as well as a six-point harness, is truly lightweight.

Porsche employees take pay cuts so they can build Mission E

Wed, Dec 30 2015

Porsche's 13,000 workers in Zuffenhausen, Germany, agreed to work more and at adjusted wages to ensure that the factory can build the production version the Mission E electric performance sedan. Their sacrifices could save the German sports car maker several hundred million euros, according to Reuters. The Zuffenhausen site was possibly in danger of losing the Mission E because workers there receive higher wages than Porsche's other factories. The specific savings from these concessions reportedly include increasing the workweek by one hour to 35 hours and eliminating portions of pay increases between 2016 and 2025. Porsche didn't officially confirm the precise cuts, but a spokesperson told Reuters: "Employer and employees have jointly drawn up measures that have led to the decision of producing the Mission E model at Zuffenhausen." Porsche plans to invest about $768 million into the Zuffenhausen factory over the coming years. That money will help create over 1,000 new jobs and will build a new paint shop, assembly plant, and upgrade the engine factory to produce electric motors. The expansion will also allow the company to move all production of the Cayman and Boxster to Zuffenhausen by August 2016 rather than the current strategy of outsourcing some of the models' assembly to Osnabruck, Germany. The Mission E should enter production by 2020, and Porsche Executive Board Chairman Dr. Oliver Blume promises it to be the "most sophisticated model in this market segment." The concept at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show offered a glimpse at the next-gen technology by presenting a swoopy EV sport sedan with all-wheel drive and a total of 590 horsepower from two electric motors. Porsche claimed the concept could reach 62 miles per hour in just 3.5 seconds and go nearly 311 miles on the European testing cycle.

50th Anniversary Porsche 911 vs. Jaguar F-Type Coupe is a battle of beauty, brawn

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

There can't really be a loser between the Jaguar F-Type Coupe R and the Porsche 911 50th Anniversary Edition. One might be better than the other, but if you're behind the wheel of either of them, you can't complain. In a new video, Motor Trend takes on the difficult task of determining which one of these European powerhouses is the best, not just in terms of raw performance, but also how they actually feel to drive.
The Porsche 911 is one of the perennial favorites of the motoring world. It just doesn't go away and always seems capable of challenging the top vehicles in its class. In this video, Motor Trend takes a look at the 50th Anniversary Edition model that celebrates that heritage while boosting power somewhat over the standard version.
The F-Type Coupe is an incredibly masculine car, MT describing it as "a British Corvette." The coupe's exterior lines are tautly stretched over its athletic body, and it's supercharged 5.0-liter V8 sounds like a demon's growl. Jaguar seems to have things right with its latest sports car.
