These grab handles on the center console made me chuckle. This thing is offroad certified. I would never touch a cayenne... but that is just because I am a cheap ass Honda boy at heart.

Go for it McGyver . Will be faster than almost any E30 in a straight line!

Yup, even offering free parking at my house, just minutes from LAX. I will pick you up from the airport in it and then you can start the overlanding journey back across the country

Shiiiiiiiiiiiiit, that makes it even easier! Somehow my wife isn't totally opposed to this idea, although I think she may be somewhat uninformed about the subject.

If I'm going to get one of these, I'd rather a Porshe over a VW or Audi. Also, no fucking way would I touch a v10 Touareg. I'd rather a cool wagon, but a fun AMG or S70R seem to be about the same price or more. Also, this is going to get street parked in south philly, so a 10 to 20 foot car is plenty fine.

Are the v8 Cayennes really that unreliable? It seems like coils and plugs at regular intervals, water pipes in the valley pan (and starter if the pipes are leaking), water pumps at regular intervals, coolant expansion tank when it weeps, and some T-fitting on the turbo cars. I'm sure anything can happen, and a $1k alternator sucks, but it's also not that car off from the $600 water pump in my f30. Again, I would only pay for parts because my time to work on it is worthless.

Only cayenne worth getting is the pepper

Only cayenne worth getting is the 3.6

vr6 or financial suicide

I'd rather have a wagon. And not a VW or Audi wagon.

A friend of mine had an older Cayenne. The alternator went out, water cooled deal. A new one was over $1,000, and it was a huge pain to replace. The engine bay is so crowded for a large vehicle, and that was non-turbo.

Most people don't do their own maintenance on them and they're really really expensive to get worked on. Same vein as a Maserati except less flammable

I need something that looks a little more stock.

I was watching this get bid up to $14k. Is that all these cost?!? This looked like a SUPER nice, fully loaded, Turbo S, are they really that cheap? What's the catch?!?
