Hey, our cars are almost twins and we are local to each other (oh, just checked and you are in Portland actually). I remember seeing yours on craigslist too. Mine (well, it's for my wife and kid actually) is black/black with blackout trim and 20" technos as well. Your taillights are tinted though. Only mod I've done to it is the clear corners. Looks like yours has the entry & drive feature which is nice. Ours came with the towing package although I have nothing to tow.

Tons of Cayennes in and around Bellevue. Enjoy in good health. Sad you had to part with the 993 though.

Thanks guys!
OK, point me in the direction for the clears. Right now, with holidays on the way, tires are #1 on my list but not sure about affording new wheels yet. I'll keep my eyes open, though, for some 18's. One drawback on mine is that my wheels are pretty thrashed from the sellers wife banging into curbs.
The tow package is mainly for my bike rack, so not a biggie as yet. The rains are near.
So far, I am just so in awe of this vehicle. I am still discovering new bells and whistles I didn't know it had. The power...my god, it blows me away every time I give her a little gas. And with the handling, I am not really missing the 993, except the curves of her sexy body ;-)
D2K, do you take yours to Chris's? Great shop.
Dennis C...Hope you enjoyed our two day Indian Summer. It was great to utilize the Pano roof that came with mine.

Bluejam, how about a roof rack for the bikes? I put a roof rack on my X5 for my road bikes and hybrids. Our CTT has the OEM roof bars too.

Check out Suncoast http://www.suncoastparts.com/category/PO.html for the OEM bike roof rack equipment. They also have clear corner markers.

Nice Pig!

You will love it. It's important to have an SUV that can smoke the local high school's fastest mustang with the whole family riding along!

Exactly the reason I will leave my wheels at 18". I will let the tires take the damage

Is it a bad angle or your P!G has something going on with the front wheels?
