Default Joined the club! Cayenne GTS

We added a '10 Black/Black GTS to the stable today:

3k miles
Xenons
PCM with Nav
Heated Seats
Light Comfort Package
XM Radio
Universal Audio Interface
Variable Power Steering
Panorama Roof
Par Assist
Bose Sound
Bluetooth
Tow Package
Black rood rails
CPO warranty until 2015/100k mi

Never thought I'd ever be a Cayenne driver but driving home, I was actually very impressed with the power, the sound, the ride quality, comfort and noise level. The best piece is that it has a "Sport" button, just like the GT3 that it replaced. Fingers crossed with the reliability. We figured that Porsche learned a a thing or two through the Cayenne production run.

... winter tires, full spare tire and an enclosed aluminum trailer are next.

Congrats. The playpen requires photos of you and the new "pig"! Post at the top of the forum.

Nice going Frank!

Did you get the stick or the Tiptronic?

Thanks! I just found out that you can't actually install them with the Pano roof. I'll probably get them removed if they are not functional.

It was a great experience and I would buy another car from them without any hesitation. The deal became a little complicated when I actually sold my trade-in GT3 to a fellow RL(er), we still ran the trade through Town and he traded-in his car so we would both got the sales tax benefit. Dealt with Marc, no regrets.

Love it. Black is very cool. Why wouldn't the roof rails be functional?
