For any of you classic car race fans, the Cayenne will be at the Mitty races at Road Atlanta in the Porsche corral parked atop the Turn 10 hill today. Come by and say hello.

Logged another 1,200 trouble-free miles this week on a round trip to FL. Cruise set to around 90 mph and averaged 13.6 mpg with the Skybox aboard. The odometer is rapidly approaching the 40k mile mark.

Thanks very much. It was painful while it was going on, but so worth it once finished. Love that thing.

You gotta start somewhere. Looks like he decided to start at the mud flaps and work his way forward.

Just got back from another 1,000 mile run. Hit Panama City Beach for a week with the family and some friends. Car performed flawlessly - hit about 42k on the odometer now. This time we didn't use the Skybox. Got 16 MPG with the wife driving down while I worked and 14.2 MPG on the way back today with the cruise set at 88 - yeah, we don't drive the same LOL. Did the same trip a few months ago, but to Destin with different friends. This car drives and rides so great !

I followed since first post and I am still at at awe form this build and what you've done. I started looking for a cayenne because of you and after driving a couple fell in love with it. I ended up with a 130K mile one owner GTS as my winter beater that unfortunately doesn't warrant this level of aftermarket.
I think the mechanical work you've put in it is paying off on these long trouble free trips. Good job.

Thanks a lot. The GTS is awesome too. Best sounding Cayenne of the bunch without the turbos getting in the way of the exhaust sound.

Yeah this thing is awesome even with high mileage (properly maintained).
My wife hates SUVs and Minivans (would kill for V8 Panamera GTS) and after driving it a couple times comes back to me and says "i cant believe it. you know me i hate SUVs but i like driving this". Go figure

Yep, they're amazing coming from almost any other similar vehicle frame of reference.

How are the Atturo tires holding up? I'm looking for new tires for the 957 2008 GTS. Don't really want to spend $1K ++ for tires that will only last 20K miles.
