New Car, maybe.

My wife is interested in a NA Cayenne, but we can't find any real life facts on the car. Gas milage. Engine family, Maintenance routines etc. Dealer has a couple of 05s left over, but I haven't been able to catch my Porsche salesman for info. Driving impressions, visability problems, Frequently complained of problems, etc.

TIA

Doc

My wife complains with the right visibility on the S when making a left ton a 2 way int, she's very short, oh well But she loves driving it she feels very safe, and very easy to drive she says. No issues on the 2005 S's, 04's you need to get all the TSB's done and you'll be ok. Handles and brakes better than any car I've driven well aside from the Carrera 4S

Thanks guys. We are going to look a a 2005 S on Friday. The car has 19,000 miles showing...should that be cause for concern? The dealer is where I have bought almost all my P cars and my wifes 2005 MBZ 350 SLK. We would be trading in a 2003 Toyota Matrix. Definitely will check for TSB's being addressed.
