Default Lesson #1: How NOT to demo a Cayenne

This is what happens when a customer lets their son drive the Cayenne demo.

This is from a Canadian dealer, luckily, not my dealership.

Yes, it's on 20" rims.

Yes, it was damaged. To the tune of around $18000, plus from what I hear the customer bought the vehicle. Not sure if that was a voluntary purchase or a forced one though.

Obviously, it was not equiped with the optional, automatic pontoon flotation system.

Exactly! The APFS comes standard with the Advanced Off Road Technology package!

A Porsche being pulled out by a suburban, how humbling....

Only one phrase fits this...

"Ok, who is the U-boat commander?"

No wonder the APFS did not work. The bonehead had the sunroof open!! Obviously did not read the manual as instructed.

At least someone caught the reference... albeit to a 928, but still a Porsche...
