Private seller, Cayenne sales down 55% YTD, down economy...assuming it hasn't been underwater (Katrina) salvage title...I'd say congratulations, nice find.

Probably worth spending a few hundred $ asking the owner to run it by the local Porsche dealership for a quick inspection/PPI.

2006 Cayenne turbo S's with that mileage are going for approx $40000 at the Mannheim auction.

Title holding seller wants cash now and doesn't give a hoot?

Or, dirty deed dirt cheap?

Pic 3 of 8 does not seem to show an "S" on the back of the truck/SUV.

Pic 6 of 8 does show an 'S' on the center console, although can't see the 'Turbo' part of it.

I thought the Turbo S had silver grilles up front too, not black like the one in the photos had, and like a standard turbo has...
