I just returned tonight from my cross-country excursion to pick up the 2004 CPO Cayenne Turbo - there was so much to write and show that I had to make a webpage out of it all...

nice write-up...just spent this weekend in sandy beach mexico and we did quite a bit of offroading in my friends Toureg

did u wash the turbo before every pic...you managed to keep jt quite clean during all those miles haha

 

makes me want to buy a Cayenne Turbo... off to dealer tomorrow!

 

Damn that sounds REALLY REALLY FUN!!!!

I m glad u had such good trip in the CTT.

So how many miles was the trip from the pick up point all the way back home and how many total miles u have on ur CTT after the trip?

Any sign of additional rock chip or still the way it was when you picked it up?

I gota get myself one of those later on in life!

 

Nice write up, sounds like a great trip. Although you should have asked to buy the mud flaps from that guys F-250, would have been a nice souvenir.

 

Great write up. Can't wait to get my turboS!!!

 

It was just shy of 2000 miles, with my circuituous route, and once home I've driven it about 4 miles so far. Today I drive to the detail shop in Newport for a full priming and pruning.

I didn't count rock chips before taking off, as I assumed there were some (2 year old vehicle) and frankly I really don't care that much as long as there isn't that many. I did take a cursory glance around the exterior for chips just to see if there was any major dings but didn't see anything. I'm sure I have a few more now being that I drove behind trucks on the interstate, but with the Cayenne turbo the huge intake openings are most of the front of the body of the car, so they get the rocks along with the windshield. I do have a new chip on the windshield, but them's the breaks when owning a SUV.

 

Well, TestnDoc, as impressed as I am with the CTT, I might join you in a few years with the CTTS...

 

u should drag race the CTT with the Boxter S to see who is faster

 

I washed it only once on the trip - after the mud incident at the lake. The rest of the pictures are just from far enough away and have enough sun in them to make the CTT LOOK clean when it really isn't.

 

Great write up Todd, love the White Sand pics
Must be great to drive the CTT cross country... btw oil level was ok?

 

Alex - no oil! I checked it and it was fine, surprisingly so...

 

Wish I had time to have an adventure in my CT like that! Awesome write up!

 

I didn't really have time either - you have to MAKE time, that's what it comes down to. Follow your passions once in a while or you are completely ineffective at work...
