I'm always looking to see you leaving at the end of the day as my day is beginning.

I hope the new ride is doing well. See you soon.

Have an early (2004 build) MY 2005 CS. After +2 years of trouble free ownership I have to say it is the best car/truck I have ever owned. Plan to keep it for 2 more years and then get a new one.

2004 with April build date. 26,000 miles. Serviced at 18,000 miles (30,000km). Gotta figure a lot of reported tire problems are driving style. Two trips to the dealer for TSB updates. Original Michelins on 22" TechArts (and at least another 5,000 miles on the tires). Problems or issues = zero, nada, none. Only problem is the low profile 22" wheels meeting curbs. Pleasure to drive and ride. Handles great for a truck. Excellent paint and leather interior. What's not to like?

Anyway, once again you are on the money MadFox - no blue dots needed here. A note regarding the autobahn. Friday, on the way home, I was crusing along and it suddenly dawned on me I was alone on the BAHN ! I quickly made a double check that no other cars were in sight and proceeded to accelerate the CTT up to 125/130 MPH and was actually able to cruise at that speed for about 5 miles - and then I came upon moving trafffic so I coasted down to normal speed (about 80-90 MPH). But, for that brief period of time the sound of this fine automobile elevated me to another world (kind of like that feeling of solitude when flying) and proved this is an amazing machine. The more a person drives these Cayennes, the better they run.
Good weekend to all.

Regardless, your story tracks pretty much with mine, no problems and lots of enjoyment.

mjw- yep, you are correct. I drove it home from the dealer and put on the TAs (which had been ordered several months in advance). I meant that they had not been replaced (and all miles but the trip from the dealer were on the Diamaris). Glad to hear that you, too, have enjoyed the Cay - wish I had not bailed on a TT though.
