My name is Chad and I'm a Porsche-holic
I welcomed a new to me 04 CS into my garage. The race car has a big brother to tow it around. 
First thoughts after driving 600+ miles in one day....Fun, great freeway cruiser, handles on/off ramps very well, annoyed by 1 second delay when you floor it, Xenons are great, Sound is great (gotta check to see if it has Fabspeed 2nd cat deletes...fingers-crossed but it looked stock with quick glance.)
Options:
White/Grey Leather- Dark Wood (May swap out for Aluminum)
Nav
Tow
20 inch Sport Technos (with new tires )
Heated seats front and back
Bi Xenon
Red Turbo calipers (really dirty..damn brake dust)
Painted lower body work
a ton of other options except air susp
The need to replace list:
1 key/fob
Rear hatch struts (I need to do a search to see how to replace them)
Also a big thanks goes to Kevin M. for helping me out with all my questions.
Now for the pics.... I do not want to get flamed

nice truck !!
Did you lower the car ?? If yes, with what springs ??
And is it hard to paint the caliper ??

Thanks everyone. I'm having fun with it.
It has the stock suspension, not lowered. The 20's just make it look that way.
Yep I bought it from the dealer who at one time listed it on ebay.

Congrats Chad!! Nice acquisition
!! My wife really wants one. I have to get another P-car in the garage soon! I met you years back in Modesto if you remember, I had a 78 911 SC at the time and you had 2 early 911's in the garage. Hope all is well and take care. Look forward to seeing more mods on the Cayenne. If ever up this way again, drop me a line.
