One owner. This was my personal daily driver for 7 years. Never abused, never taken off-road and well-maintained
with regular service. Always premium grade lubricants. This car purchased new had many options driving the sticker
to $130K in 2008. Today's version of this car sells for between 175K and 210K. It has a high-performance Porsche
Turbo engine estimated to have between 600-610hp. Chip and high performance exhaust installed by dealer boosting
HP. Xenon headlamps, premium sound system, leather multi-directional heated and cooled seats with matching suede
headliner and moon roof. Heated steering wheel, multi-level suspension, tiptronic / auto transmission. This
Cayenne is in excellent condition, It is not perfect, but close...it is an extremely nice car. I actually hate to
part with it but I am running out of car space. Would be a great second car for someone. Note - it takes premium
fuel and it likes gasoline a lot, but it is a fun car to drive. Lots of muscle and a nice resting profile. Best
Cayenne body-style in my opinion. This car is ready for many more fun miles. Happy to answer any questions. Note:
Photos show a missing rear left head rest. I have the headrest but in order to fold down the rear seats, the head
rests need to be removed.
A 2008 model review by the Fort Worth Star Telegram is below:
"The ultra-high-performance model is the Cayenne Turbo, which lists for $93,700. It has a twin-turbo version of the
4.8-liter V-8 engine, rated at 500 horsepower and 516 foot-pounds of torque. EPA estimates are 12 mpg city/19
highway -- quite respectable for this much power.
This model can reach 60 mph in just 4.9 seconds, and has a top speed of 171 mph. Helping to improve power and
fuel-efficiency on the new models is Porsche's all-new direct fuel injection technology for the Cayenne. It's
standard on all three models. The Cayenne is a rather heavy SUV that can carry five adults and all of their
luggage, so the performance figures are quite impressive. Curb weights range from 4,762 pounds for the V-6 with
manual gearbox to 5,191 pounds for the Turbo model.
The manual gearbox is offered only with the V-6 engine; the S and Turbo models come only with the six-speed
Tiptronic S automatic, which is optional on the base Cayenne.
For those who want to get the best performance out of the Cayenne, the Tiptronic transmission offers manual
shifting without having to worry about a clutch. Paddles on each side of the steering wheel allow for quick up- and
downshifts.
The car also comes with a "sport" mode that lowers the automatic transmission's shift points for quicker
acceleration."

Jay Leno chats with Magnus Walker about his 1972 Porsche 911 72STR
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Magnus Walker has stopped by the Big Dog Garage again to pay Jay Leno a visit in the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage. This time, the Porsche builder brought along his 1972 911 72STR 002. Walker calls the machine his best build to date, and the car is a rolling "best of" from Porsches past, rocking some of the more attractive elements pulled from a wide arc of 911 model years. Of course, the machine also wears a few signature Walker touches, including flush-mount turning indicators, a center-hood fuel filler and plenty of louver work.
Unlike some of Walker's other creations, the 72STR 002 is clean enough to lick. Leno seems suitably impressed with the creation, and while apparently isn't typically a fan of Porsche models in general, Walker's tastefully modified 911 has him singing a different tune. You can check out the car in the video below.
Porsche's former CEO Wiedeking to stand trial over VW-share manipulation
Wed, 27 Aug 2014Former Porsche CEO Wendelin Wiedeking (left in the above photo) could potentially be facing some time in the slammer after all. The last we had heard, he and former Chief Financial Officer Holger Haerter (right) had avoided a trial in April due to a lack of evidence. However, an appeals court in Stuttgart has looked at the case again and overruled the earlier decision, finding that the executives should be tried for share manipulation during Porsche's failed attempt to take over Volkswagen in 2008, Bloomberg reports.
The judges in the appeal "list numerous indications that could suggest that there was a hidden decision to increase the stake as they could suggest the opposite evaluation by the lower court," said Stefan Schueler, a spokesperson for the court, in a statement cited by Bloomberg. Wiedeking and Haerter put out their own releases saying that there was no merit to the charges.
The prosecutors allege that Wiedeking and Haerter had a plan to buy up VW stock options in 2008 to take the automotive giant over but hid it from investors. The whole thing was a massive failure and eventually allowed VW the chance to acquire Porsche and forced the two execs to step down. In addition to the criminal investigation, hedge funds have attempted to sue the company multiple times in civil court for the same reason, but they have repeatedly failed.
'Born of a Blue Sky' brings the Amelia Island Concours to you
Fri, 03 May 2013The Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance has more clout every year and is getting a reputation as Pebble Beach minus the madness. Held in March this year, it celebrated Ducati and the 50-year anniversaries of Lamborghini, the Corvette Sting Ray, Porsche 911 and the Ford GT40.
Justin Lapriore was there, and seemingly everywhere, getting footage of the various wares on display on the lawns and the sand and the runway. The resulting video, Born of a Blue Sky, is a 16-minute survey of some of the finer sights and plenty of engine sounds. Check it out below.
