So I am thinking if the ppi is bad, i run away. if fair - I offer $20000, if ppi is medium/avg $21000, and if the ppi is super clean - not even bring it up in my bargaining discussion, but offer $23,000.
Dealer is asking $27,500.
I am concerned there aren't many 2006 - 2008 Cayenne Turbo S available for sale within 100 miles of me. at least not below $35K
Your thoughts? since you are experts and have probably sold some of this in the past.

Considering that a regular turbo was around 100k base, and a Turbo S was 25k or so more for not much more for the 25k, I can't imagine a lot where sold

The 3 year warranty separately costs about $4500 and includes coverages for the engine, transmission/transaxle/transfer case (clutch assemblies and all component parts are not covered), drive axle, and additional hybrid/plug-in electric/compressed natural gas components. Does not cover Steering, Brakes, Air Conditioning, Suspension, and Electrical.

Courtesy of Rennlist and thanks to you, i am getting a ppi done. The dealer has also confirmed the following:
1. Tires – just replaced
2. Brakes – just replaced
3. Coolant pipes – checked out
4. Cardan shaft –in good order. Test drove and car was pretty steady and was not all over the place.

5. Rear Hatch Shocks – yet to check
6. Starter - yet to check
7. Torque Converter seal - yet to check
8. New ignition coils - yet to check
9. PWIS Headlight - I read from another 2005 owner that sensors may require adjusting. Is this common?

Questions:
• Is this a reasonable offer for a 2006 Cayenne Turbo S?
• What other items should I look out for?
• Are the extended warranty coverages adequate for this car?

I am moving from a 2008 Range Rover Sport that only required the oil change, brake and tire replacements so I am concerned and doing all due diligence.

Thanks advance for your advice, much appreciated indeed.

Purchased 2/2013 - 108k miles.

Today 3/2017 - 148k miles

Besides routine maintainance, I've had to replace two things:

1. Carden Shaft - shortly after delivery
2. Plastic Coolant Pipes

I have opted to do the following:

EVOMS Cayenne TT/TTS V-Flow Intake System
DV18 Diverter Valve EVOMS Cayenne TT/TTS (Only)
Fabspeed Secondary Catbypass Pipes Cayenne S/GTS/TT/TTS 955
IPD 76mm Plenum 955 Cayenne Turbo/TurboS
955 Cayenne Twin Turbo S 4.5L V8 (03-06) EVOMSit Intelligent Tuning
High Performance Cats

Needless to say I cannot be happier with the Cayenne. With all the upgrades she screams - holds the boost like crazy and pulls on almost anything I've come up to on the road.

Thanks,
Erik
