I really want to stay in the $25k-28k price range for a 2008-2009 Cayenne S. I feel the base model is not going to be enough power.

However, a lot of the Cayennes I'm seeing have 60-80k miles on them. Is that basically just breaking these cars in? Or should I be looking for something with less miles?

Less miles are always better.
Many P!gs are abandoned right after 50K or when they become naked.
Finding a higher mileage CPO would be ideal, but high mileage and dealer CPO is a bit of an oxymoron.

And welcome to the P!g Pen, blah, blah, blah...

Budget 5k and place it in your "pig"gy bank and you will be fine.

Expect pipes, cardan, coils (and if pipes go expect torque seal (1200 bux) and starter (700 bux)
