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 |

eBay Find of the Day: Your choice of new, unregistered mid-2000s supercars
Wed, 26 Dec 2012If you didn't quite find what you were hoping to see under the tree this year, maybe it's about time you buy yourself something nice. Something like an unregistered 2005 Porsche Carrera GT. The car has never been titled and has just 83 miles on the odometer. With one owner since new, the Carrera GT is likely to be as nice an example as you're likely to find outside of a museum. Porsche only built 340 of these machines back in 2005, and with a 610 horsepower V10 kicking at your spine, you can lap Santa's sleigh next year. Currently, the Carrera GT has a buy it now price of $457,325 with around six days left on the auction.
Not flashy enough for your tastes? Stroll on down to West Hollywood and you'll find a similarly untitled 2004 Ferrari Enzo up for grabs with a sticker of $1.8 million. Technically a Euro-spec car, the Enzo isn't legal to operate on US roads, but could be modified to satisfy Uncle Sam with a little effort. The seller calls this car the "last brand-new Enzo in existence" and with 175 miles on the clock, that may be a true statement. You can head over to eBay Motors for a closer look if you're feeling spendy.
1986 Porsche 959 Prototype at Barrett-Jackson sees gavel fall at $440,000 [UPDATE: w/video]
Sat, 19 Jan 2013Fans of Porsche in America have longed for the chance to buy a 959 ever since the German automaker produced and sold it (well, sold it everywhere but the United States...) in the 1980s. Well, they just had their chance. The car you see above is a Porsche 959 prototype built in 1986, and only one other running prototype still exists.
The 959 prototype can't be driven on public roads, as it carries no such certification. Somehow, we doubt that matters all that much to the new buyer - this one is probably going to be sitting in a collection. When the gavel finally fell, bidding had reached $400,000, plus a 10-percent buyer's fee.
Check out our high-res image gallery above to see this prototype up close, and scroll down below to watch a video of it crossing the auction block and for its official auction description.
Porsche planning more plug-ins
Mon, Jan 5 2015Which automaker offers the most plug-in models in the industry? The answer may surprise you, because it's not Toyota, it's not Renault or Nissan or any other automaker that might spring to mind. The answer is Porsche, which already offers the Cayenne and Panamera in plug-in hybrid spec in addition to the 918 Spyder. And it could offer more in the near future. Speaking with Automotive News, Porsche's global sales and marketing chief Bernhard Maier spoke of the importance of plug-in range-extended models to the company's future plans. The 55-year-old executive, who endeavors to make his 56-mile round-trip daily commute from home to the company's headquarters in Stuttgart entirely emissions free, indicated that his company only plans to offer more plug-in models. Previous reports indicated that E-Hybrid powertrain in the Cayenne and Panamera wouldn't fit in the Macan, and that no such plans were in store for the Boxster, Cayman or 911. But when asked what Porsche had in store for the future, Maier replied: "We have a lot of ideas, but we have not approved them for production yet. The 918 Spyder shows that Porsche has the capability to produce very convincing hybrid sports cars." While clearly guarded, Maier's answer points to a future of more plug-in hybrid models from the storied German marque. All that remains to be seen is whether that will come in the form of a Boxster, Cayman, Macan or another new model altogether, like the rumored mini-Panamera dubbed Pajun or a mid-engined V8 supercar.
