maverick1715 is infamous around these parts
I just got mine delivered 2 months ago. Bellow are my options

Cayenne turbo
Premium Package Plus $5,320 White $0 Two-tone Natural Leather in $1,940 Espresso/Cognac
Trailer Coupling without Removable Ball $650 Joint
Panorama Roof System $660 Wheel Arch Extensions with Side Door $990 Protection Moldings
Bi-Xenon(TM) Headlights in Black with $575 Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS)
Thermally and Noise Insulated Privacy $1,120 Glass
Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control $3,510 (PDCC)
Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV $1,490 Plus)
8-speed Tiptronic S Inclusive Auto Start $0 Stop Function
19" Cayenne Turbo Wheel $0 Wheel Hub Cover with Colored Porsche $185 Crest
17mm Rear Axle Wheel Spacers $430
14-way Power Seats with Memory $0 Package
Heated Three-spoke Multi-function $365 Steering Wheel in Walnut
Extended Grab Handles Trim Package in $1,640 Walnut
SiriusXMTM Satellite Radio + HD Radio $1,120 Reciever

However if YOU are in a budget try to consider the following TOTALLY worthy options that your dealership would probably not recommend:


1. Panorama Roof System $660 (worth every penny! I live in Las Vegas and the cabin doesn't overheat even when outside is 110F. Gives you a convertible feeling when is opened and it's amazing the light can get inside when is even closed)

2. Thermally and Noise Insulated Privacy $1,120 Glass (most dealerships don't order this option since they think is a waste. They think the car is already very quite without it. Yeah... Right! HUGE difference. If you think the car is already quite and doesn't need this option, then if you drive one with thermally and noise insulated windows, you'll regret you didn't spent the $1120.

3. Get the Diesel! You can manage 33mpg on cruse control on road trips. Totally worth it and almost same price as the V6.

I've also read many debates about PDCC and PTV. Nope! These 2 options are not for the track, are for the road! Are for the family... For the complaining "dizzy" wife (slow down, I'm getting sick) If you can spend the extra 5k, then do it! Trust me.. you won't have to slow down anymore on those sick turns. With the PTV, every turn feels like you are on rails. Combined the 2 systems together, you drive on mountain roads and feels like you drive on a straight freeway. Handles better than my Cayman S and that says a lot! Probably my most favorite options. However, if you get these 2 options don't get them in the package. I really think you want the multifunction steering wheel, and if you get the sport package which includes the 2 systems (PTV and PDCC) then you won't get the multifunction steering wheel which I couldn't do without it!

Oil consumption: Yes it does drink some oil especially if you don't pet it and you abuse it a little.. so what? I think you can afford 8$/1000 miles to put one quart of Mobil 1 0W-40 in. For an SUV that does 175mph I think I can live with it.

Thank you for reading, I would be glad to answer any question or concern you may have,

Alex

On a more serious note, +1 @khabah for his comment:no matter how talented a driver you may be,"humility"is one of the most important qualities to have behind the wheel...
