Took the Plunge

I have been having so much fun with my 997S that my Cayenne S feels like driving with the brakes on so I traded for a Cayenne Turbo yersterday. Pick it up tomorrow.
Livin' the Porsche life large!

450. I bought the CTT out of inventory. The Turbo Power Kit,E81, is a $19,900. option for 50 ponies, beefed up brakes and tuned suspension.

It is incredible how this 450HP twin turbo throws a 6,000 lb. wagon around. The thrust is almost the same as the 997S on sport mode.
