Someday, maybe someday, I'll be able to afford a Cayenne and become a member of the Cayenne Club, current population: 200,000.

For now, I can only continue the save the money I make doing my newspaper route and stare at the Cayenne poster on the wall in my room and dream......

July 2003 and still a user?

I realize that I may never save enough money to buy a Cayenne, but I would be happy to send you a US Postal Service money order/S&H Green Stamps in the amount of $17.95 or $32.00, so that you can become a Rennlist member and support this forum and the website.


It's the least I can do for someone who has imparted such wisdom to all the Cayenne owners over the years.

Pig is just too catchy... I don't think it can be changed. Besides, what's wrong with pigs? They're smarter than dogs and are delicious...

Larry would be proud......
Was Larry really the first one to use the word 'pig' to describe the pig?
I honestly don't remember and we can't ask him, well, not directly anyways.....

Never happen. I plan on keeping mine alive as long as parts are still available. It will take its place next to my other cars and be driven on those days when it's purpose is most needed. Maybe swing by your place and do a drive by on occasion. LOL

What radio, never use them unless it is for news or traffic. If I am going to listen to music I will in the comfort of my home on a stereo worth listening too. Just kidding.

Very good. I saw them as an opening act for "The Killers" here in Seattle. Before that never heard of them. If you get a chance to see one of their concerts it is worth the $. Best song that I have heard on their album is "God Killed the Queen".

Just resurrecting an old thread since I wasn't even born then yet.

It looks like P!G has become the norm for the 955. How about the 957 and 958?

I actually got a little misty eyed reading this old thread... I miss the old timers who helped each other (we were all screwed in the alpha and beta days) and built the P!g Pen.

But then I realized how much Larry would hate the Fanboys, Dr. W. and the Cayenne...and my tears quickly dried up.

Much to the displeasure of my wife, I call mine P!g. She sees it as rude and insulting, I see it as a term of endearment.

I think the real question is if the Macan is going to be P!gglet?

Found this when I was trying to figure out where pig came from. I think rhino is better. Way better. Like the ol' Phantom II. Yup.
