Luxor beige, not into this color for the upper dash issues. Can anyone chime in.

Sounds like a good deal to me. Except for the light color on the dash (I tried a few and in bright sun - the reflection of the dash on the window was a real killer..)

Has most of the goodies (does it have rear-HVAC?) The Burmester is outstanding IMHO. And you have PTV plus which is very nice. PDCC is nice - but a tiny bit complex if there are any problems. Adaptive cruise works really well.

Any warranty come with it? It's obviously out of factory warranty due to age. Might be worth looking into an aftermarket (I got one for 5 years/100k miles - $3500.)

Put a black dash-rug on it and enjoy.. and post some pictures.

Go for it. I have had my 2011 Turbo for three years with no issues. Was 84k at 24k miles. Am not at 70k with lots of towing miles taking cars to the track. Much the same options. Love the stereo. The car is clearly "excessive" but it also awesome. Price seems good but check around a bit to see what they go for.

Have no idea what the future repair costs will be but friends say theirs have held up well.

I do run after-market 19in OZ wheels for more comfort than the 21in OEM wheels.

Good luck

Seems to me to be a winner deal if you want and willing to pay for the top tier SUV.

Yep, that's a fair deal with only 15k on the clock and all the most desirable options.

Talk to your dealer about the cam adjuster bolts. These bolts are known to fail and grenade a good engine. Over in China Porsche issued recalls for these bolts but for some reason did not for other markets. Nice car and great deal!

If you don't buy it let met know. If it hasn't been crashed that is a SMOKING deal with those options. Dealer?

Id pass just based on the interior colour alone. You will never be happy with it.

I think I can live with the interior color since I have a

GT3, RS4 and a Q7 all with black interior. I've also got a orient blue E38 740iL with gray interior that I absolutely love more than the black interior.

Black may look cooler but the beige and other lighter interiors seem warmer and more inviting.

Just an opinion

My GTS has a tan interior. I never noticed or paid attention to the dash/windscreen reflection, until it was mentioned in this tread.

I will continue to ignore it.

This would not be a deal breaker IMO if all else meets with you approval.

I have the beige interior and dash on my 06 CTTS and don't notice any more or less reflection than cars with a black dash. My Cayenne is in for service today and I'm driving a 2016 Base model loaner with a black dash. I can't tell any difference in the amount of reflection between the two trucks.

Ok, the car is officially on the transport and will be arriving either Sunday or Monday.

There are a few things that i want to do the the car as soon as it's in my hands.

Floor mats in black
Natural olive or CF interior trim
Black steering wheel, either regular or the sport model. Cant' decide.

Also will look to blacking out all the aluminum trim and installing a clear bra on the vehicle.

Any recommendations or opinions greatly appreciated.
