Should I trade in my S for a Turbo?

My friend keeps telling me to trade in my S and my X5 for a turbo. Should I do it? Honestly I like the turbo, I don't mind paying some money but I feel bad asking that to my dad. I don't want to sound like a spoilt kid to my dad.

DEETZ,
if u trade both cars u should not be very far to a Turbo. i'll do it if i were u, plus there is no point to keep 2 SUVs.

i have never driven an S, But i can tell you after the turbo, (as much as i love driving) it seems like a chore to drive anything else (i mean Suvs)

if you do decide to trade it in, do it now b4 to 05's come in. The all have the lower body painted the same as the car instead of grey or black. and you could get the satellite radio you wanted.

DEETZ:

Do it, you know you want to. Sorry for being the friend that has been pushing you to do this, but it is the right move IMHO! Two SUVs are a waste. IF you trade both in, you are almost at a Turbo, plus you save on insurance payments, garage rent, maintence, etc.

Same here.... trade it in for the turbo as they all said an extra suv is a waste but before you sell it be sure to take out ur brothers sound system lol that thing costs a lot. good luck convincing ur dad lol

I have decided to keep my S and sell the X5, but if I sell the X5 I will get some tax. Honestly, I feel that trading those 2 cars for a turbo is a waste of money because I will be driving the same car but just a better version. So I am gonna keep the S, sell the X5 and keep the money

thanks everyone! (hopefully, this thing stops bugging me)

there gonna rape you on trade in value for your S. I got the car auction alot, and cayenne S's are going threw for 38-45k.... wholesale. So a dealer like Herb chambers will take you for a ride. better off keeping both trucks and invest the money and buy a ferrari in a couple years. Just to put things into prespective... keep the Cayenne S. and put some wheels on it for the summer

even better test drive a turbo that has been chipped , cat by-pass and airfilters and then deside if you want one (try turning off the psm and doing a nice 4 wheel burn out )
