Red face RE: NA

Thanks people I just became aspirated with a showroom quality 2004 Cayenne Turbo I pick it up tomorrow and he said it would have a full tank of gas and there is nothing that needs to be done. One question, this is at a non Porsche dealer who changed oil using non Mobile 1 , he said they used organic oil. I live about 60 miles away, do you all think it's okay to drive it home and then change into Mobile one? Let me know what to do !

Safflower, or canola?

By chance was he wearing a strange gold jacket with silver visor?

Well done!! I am similarly aspirated that you made the right choice! The CTT is clearly the Porsche within the Cayenne lineup. You will grin for months and months and months...

SeanKrider, that was one witty response with the BTTF reference I think having a CTT will more fun along with this forum. The fun and suspense starts tomorrow afternoon!

Since 5K miles /yr means gas mileage isn't a big deal, go for a Turbo...Turbo S if you can find one. I promise, the power is awesome and great fun and to be experienced if you love performance cars. Turbos are at least as trouble free as the other V8s.

Since you are leaving from Minnesota, I am going to assume that the temps will probably be below 45F. If so, I would definitely say keep the winter tires on. I've already read numerous posts where the owners had wished they had not ventured out on summer tires. Just my 2 cents.

Hey people I need advice on how to load photos on this forum any help would be appreciated.
I can't wait to turbo out of this below zero B**** for the last 6 weeks worst winter since I was a kid. Florida is going to be so nice to run this beautiful Cayenne. Showed it to a real car guy today and he was impressed and after seeing his '55 Cadillac if he was impressed with my Cayenne I take it as a true compliment.
I just heard the news and the weather is not looking too good from Georgia to Illinois so hope it clears up by the 25th I got two weeks to hope. Be we'll see ya.
