Beautiful!! I wish you many years of happy driving.

I see you got the 21's - stunning wheel. Are you planning on running another (smaller?) set of wheels with cold-weather rubber for winter? How does the V6 ride on the 21s?

I'm a Pcar newbie with a similar build on order (truck was scheduled to be built last week). I went with the stock 18's but intend to get a forged wheel set in 21 or 22 for summer (Chicago suburbs).

 

Looks beautiful, congrats.
I wonder how does it rides with 21" wheels, no Pasm and no air suspension.
Please let us now.

 

Wheels are stunning with Black.
Also like your Carbon steering wheel and grab handles. Makes the interior come alive.

 

Very nice ride! I have a similar JBM V6 but I didn't get 21" wheels due to weather. I am interested in what you think of them in Canadian winters - or do you have a winter wheel set too?

 

You forgot the black exterior trim option.

Are those clear side markers in the box sitting on passenger seat?

Also like to know how the 21" rides without air suspension. Beautiful car!

 

Will still be a few more days before it arrives from the dealer to me.

 

box is contains the original orange side markers after it was switched

 

How hard was it to switch the orange sidemarkers to clear?

 

dealer did it for me before i even had the car

 

frank: I am about to tackle that after I can source the correct bulbs. The clear markers didn't come with any.

It looks straightforward enough based on other people's posts...

 

Below is a link to the bulbs I used.

To the OP, great looking Cayenne btw, love the wheels!

 

I ordered my wife's CS with 21" that came with Mich Lat Sports. I specifically did not order air or PASM, as she'll just set it and forget it in comfort. After adjusting the PSI's to 33/38 Front and Rear (1 lb below the recommended "comfort pressure" / partial load / <100mph setting), the car rides very well on Southern Cali roads and highways. I've driven over 1k miles on all highways during the break in. Only questionable time is about 4 mile stretch of highway on the 15 going to Vegas. But that seems like more the highway breaks catching the wheelbase of the CS perfectly to cause choppiness. On the rest of the journey and on all other highways, the CS is more comfy and compliant than X3, X5 and my M5. About the same as a 3 series loaner I had for 3 weeks.

 

Thanks for the info.
