I'm glad I took her for a drive last Sunday. Winter will sure rear its ugly head this weekend. Cover her up in the garage and wait.

Nothing to fear as snow melts whenever it hits Miami blue.

Love your enthusiasm for being a driver in all conditions! Just can't bring myself to do it when the Cayennes are so fun, competent and at home in the winter environment.

I don't have the heart to take my TTS out yet, just too much salt and grime on the roads after our last snow storm.
I do have a Cayenne S in our stable so I drive that instead in the winter months.

I've got a twin. Much more enjoyable in winter than Cayenne, unless there is more than two inches of fresh snow.

Funny thing about these cars and winter. I used to thrash my 70's 911's in the snow, salt and ice. Drive em hard and put em away frozen and wet, I only kept one of them nice and salt free...

Now I keep them all nice!

My Cayenne was driven through almost 9 winters already. The only things that had any rust were lug nuts and trailer hitch where paint got scraped off by trailer. So I'm not sure concerns about salt are founded. And it was not wrapped like my 911 is. Paint is covered by wrap, metal does not rust, and most of it is aluminium to begin with. The only risk is a-holes on summer tires sliding around and running into other cars.
