06 Turbo S or 08 Turbo
On the fence regarding the right choice. Option to buy a new 08 Cayenne turbo @ 6K back of msrp or a new 06 turbo S @ 26K back. Both cars are optioned right and the warranties are close ( 06 S was punched Jan 07 and has 200 miles on the clock. ) It seems both cars perform fairly equally on paper but what about the real story. I am curious about cost to own over the next 2 years but really need to know if the S is equal to the 08 turbo or not performance wise. Thank You for any help! I need to decide by Monday as both cars are being held till then.

Msrp on 08 was $117000.................and bought it for $5500 back..........I drove it and the Turbo S back to back and the decision was instant.............It has the chassis control and I must admit it works incredibly. It is so different from the 05 CTT we owned and enjoyed that we simply decided to go for broke and enjoy a new one. It came with considerable carbon, black exterior trim, with black center 21 inch Porsche sport plus wheels/tires. I love the wheels but feel I might sell them as it is a bit " Darth Vaderish". Incredible vehicle!

Cayenne Turbo-S
No bad choices here. I went the other way with a CTTS given the killer deals available. Love it. I'd give the new one an edge in handling dynamics/looks but both are close in performance.

WE will decide if it is too Darth Vaderish! Sounds like it could be cool.

BTW, "Darth Vaderish" is GOOD.

Ok Ok.............Pics are coming..............I must say the look has grown on me! The car is undoubtedly one of the best vehicles I have ever owned. I just hope this level of enjoyment sticks around so I can quit loosing so much money on buying / selling cars ( other than the RS of course )
