New to Cayenne Board
I am new to the Cayenne board. Just checking in for the first time. I purchased mine last night. What an awesome vehicle.
I've hung out off and on on the 996 Turbo board in the past. But, I'm now making some changes in the garage. The first change is a new Cayenne Turbo. What an awesome vehicle. It pretty much does everything. I was truly amazed at how good it is.
Awesome power.
Great handling, especially for a taller profile "wagon".
Incredible ride quality.
Very nice quality in and out.
One of the most amazing thing is tiptronic. I've driven a number of manumatics and sequential trannies in the past. But, in all honesty, the tip is by far the best I've ever tried. Really nicely done. Feels like a Lexus smooth shift, but with the quickness and responsiveness of an SMGII (great for the track, kinda sucky on the street).
This one will be my daily driver. I'm selling the 996 Turbo to make room for a GT3 for auto-x and track days. Not wheel-to-wheel racing though. That's what the Bimmer is for. (See quote from fellow racer Will Hartje below. Sums up the situation!)

Thanks!
I'll send along some pictures later today.
Unfortunately the sport techno wheels are not yet on the car. They should come in shortly. But, I'll send along some pics later today!

Great quotes. If you don't mind, I will post a few in the off topic forum thread: one liners. Thanks. Congrats on the TT pepper, you and I subscribe to the one TT per family moto, you just went the route of changing your race car, I changed the SUV. Have fun
