Jeff, great pics. Looked back on previous posts, looks like you decided to move up to the turbo from the S. I was undecided on this as well, ended up ordering the turbo. You recieved it pretty quickly if just ordered in Nov? The white is a great looking color, I have Meteor Grey and it is sort of stealth, does not stand out like the white. Great selection, enjoy your car-truck.

Thanks for the comments! I cancelled my Loaded S that was on order when this Turbo was traded back into the dealer with 3800 miles with the options I was looking for. It came with new 19" snow wheels and tires as well as the 21" Sport wheels.They also tinted the front windows, and did the Ventureshield or 3m (not sure which). The black interior has the dark wood in it which I wouldn't have ordered but now when I see a black interior it looks a little plain without it. It grew on me. Other options are PDDC, Pano Roof, Sports Seats, 4 zone ac/heat and backup camera, Xm, 6 Disc Cd, Thermal windows,and extended Nav. Plus I let the previous owner take some of the depreciation hit. With some of the savings I purchase an extended 84 month 100k warranty. Time will tell if that was a good move or not... Some things are just meant to be in life and this was one of them. Sorry for the hijack!

What did the warrantee cost? So far I have just assumed that I would pay to play and the car has been flawless but sooner or later I assume something will break... I have a boat so am used to paying ongoing maintenence and repair costs, just part of the deal.
I have the same options except no cd disk ( put Dennison link for I pod in), no four zone HVAC or insulated glass (not required in Seattle). I have complete leather package instead of wood or metal trim as well. It has been a fun ride so far...

Hi Leek
I paid $3492 on the paperwork but when I negotiated the deal it was $3000. The dealer adjusted the price of the vehicle down to match. The total out the door price was as we had agreed. That's OK with me as the warranty can be terminated for cash at a prorated amount so the higher figure will benefit me if I surrender the policy. It also can be transferred to a new owner for $50. I plan on keeping the Cayenne long term and this forum made me nervous....so I bought the policy. 7 yr 100k miles before I'm naked!

The garage floor is an Epoxy Stone overlay which uses a two part epoxy mixed with stone. Various colors and sizes of rock are available. I like it because it is very easy to keep clean. It is porous and the sand, mud and water just disappear into the floor. It is applied about 3/8" thick. About $7 sq ft depending on job size. Expensive but nothing nicer... well maybe tile. This is the second garage I have had done and really like it. Darker colored rock hide tire tracks best. My first floor was a lighter brown and showed the tire tracks more.
Sorry again for the hijack!

I just installed some clear side markers for my 08 Cayenne S(talk about tight spaces to get the top screw out).
I am sure there is a relatively easy answer to what I am about to ask.
Why do the amber lenses have the light socket in the front of the house and the Clears(Euros) have the housing insert in the back. So if you are driving along side the SUV you will get a very bright light coming from inside the front inner fender. It is annoying.
Just curious.
Thank you.
