help on cayenne looking to buy

I am looking at a mint non-CPO 2006 turbo s model. It was insane to drive.

The vehicle original sticker was 124,xxx, it has 28k miles, black on black and the asking price is 45,900.

I fully plan on having a PPI done on the vehicle, but what else should I know to be educated?

Lastly, I am not looking for the deal of the century but the best kept vehicle. However, I do want to buy for a fair price or close to it.

Thanks in advance.

coils, plugs, coolant tubes, and cardan shaft............thats about 5k.......so put aside those funds......proactively do the coolant tubes and T pipe or you;ll incur much more when it fails..........

Leap for it.

but do pay for the ppi.........never know if its that .01% chance one turbo might be ready to puke a bearing because they never put in any oil.

Good advice...I'd never buy a Porsche without a PPI. Money well invested. Thanks for the responses.

Anyone know a decent aftermarket warranty? I called AA didn't think the price was bad but I don't if the service is any good.

I had the PPI today and there were no issues. The only issue I can see is that the car had 4 owners. I am not sure it's accurate as one was for 2 days and when seemed to the dealer that has it now. Odd because a dealer doesn't count. I'll attach the carfax link (if it's not permitted please remove).

EasyCare is a good aftermarket CA warranty. You'll have to get it through a dealer - try Rusnak. Also, the price will vary at different dealers so shop around. you'll have to pay a $300 or so "inspection" fee before the warranty is issued.

Sounds like a good price- I just sold my 2004 CTT, 40k miles, all possible options including keyless go, absolutely mint inside and out (not a single rock chip), BMP filters and fabspeed cat bypass, mobridge ipod kit, new brakes and new tires, for $34,500. And I have already had coolant tubes, etc replaced, and included the full EasyCare warranty which is valid for 1.5 more years (the warranty is transferrable). Here is my old ad with pictures, if it helps: http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...id=AT-11d5145b

My experience with EasyCare has been excellent, and you can take your CTT to any dealer or indy- it has saved me a whole lot of money.

The secondary cat delete is a MUST!! CTT sounds bad A$$.
