What are you thoughts on this Cayenne?

Are the Techart upgrades listed really $38,000?

How does the 510hp upgrade affect the factory warranty?

Any experiences with AVUS wheels?

Lastly, what type of gas mileage does a Cayenne Turbo get?

I am sorry for the Cayenne newbie questions.

pretty nice, although don't think I'd buy a "beta" version 04 model... unless it's confirmed it has NONE of the 04 glitches.

Really 38k, yeah probably. Expensive stuff.

Warranty, dunno... probably voids it though.

Dunno' AVUS

<10mpg around town...

But I drive a V6 so I could be totally wrong

Avus Wheels are very good and I never heard anything bad about them I think the Techart bodykit sets you around $19-20,000

The Techart Exhaust and 510kit is quiet exspensive so It will set you around with the wheels and bodykit for 38thou

That is NOT the $20,000 techart kit!! Looks like the truck just has the techart front add-on, rear add-on and THATS IT! THe sides are just the OEM painted!! That kit is $5-7000 at MOST! The 510 package is $4,000 at most, the Exhaust is $3,000 at most, the lowering module is $3,000 at most so there you have it, that truck has no more than $17,000 RETAIL in it!
Hope this helps!

I agree with Evan, that's only the lip and rear skirt...
Full techart have different trunk and hood.. the interior seats looks worn , i dont really see a lot of upgrades.. upgrade kit is just the ecu update?
but 72K is pretty good i think, although i dont like the wheels, he needs black techart wheels

I decided to pass on the vehicle for various reasons -

1. I would be owner #4, not a good sign.
2. It was a Florida vehicle.
3. I could not find out what performance shop did the upgrades.
4. According to my local Porsche dealer, the performance upgrade could affect the remainder of the factory warranty. They could not give 100% assurance that it did not.
5. I did not have time to fly to Texas to inspect the vehicle.

Anyone looking sell their Cayenne Turbo with a few mods? I would love to fine a white one with a few mods and nice wheels.

Find a used one and mod it yourself..... It's your best bet it wasn't abused. Most Cay turbo owners in my area are old and would have been better off driving a touareg v6.
