Default The wait is over!!! It's mods time!

Two months wait is over - last Friday collected my 2008 CS from the dealer. Pictures will be posted tomorrow - i am sure you'll like it.

Please advise whether I can put a Turbo bumper on my CS. It looks nice, but I am not sure if the larger Turbo grill will deliver more than needed air intake? will it lead to CS taking more time to reach its optimium temperature and even staying below it? Thanks.

I'm sure it will fit well with no air intake problem. Just look at the new Cayenne GTS.

Yes, and then you can call it a Cayenne GTS....perhaps you missed the memo regarding this.

Thanks guys!

I have put me order before seeing your replies. Of course you are right - it will be just like GTS! ALso ordered silver matt roof rails and silver stripes that go on the lower part of the doors (or whatever they are called - pardon my ignorance)... Let me remind you that I ordered Black Exterior Package and now changing some of its elements back to Silver....

On a separate note I was playing with the Build your Porshce feature of the Porsche US site and discovered so many Exclusive things I could order - those were not available 2 months ago when I placed my order. Not surprisingly at all ther are no Exclusive options cheaper than $1000.

WELCOME!!!!...and congrats!
Not an owner myself but i do like the "pig" as "Larry" calls it.
You may need a ''survival kit'' here though
One part of the kit is know that "ltc" is on meds and has mood swings, he had a love affair with a pepper once and she broke his heart.

Thanks! On the 'survival kit" - Yeah, I noticed by lurking for couple weeks Is this part of the "Pepper culture"? Cause I am used to totally different treatment on www.x5world.com... Not that I'm complaining though

those options allow you to build one amazing machine. it is too bad it took so long to get them onto the NA site. i was using the German site for the last 3 months to pick out the build features. it certainly is easier now!
