Trying to get this, waiting for PPI to come through. Any red flags? Would the warranty be worth it if I could get it for essentially 1600$?

Default Shoulda mentioned...

Hi, name is ziggy. Come from the PNW area, trying to get myself into a cayenne with air suspension for my gravel road.

I like all sorts of cool stuff, mechanical, outdoor, and more. But am at the moment disabled. I've got enough saved up to do some digging for a cayenne so here we start.

Hello and welcome. I think the short answer to your question is: It depends.

The mileage alone doesn’t worry me too much at that price point. My bigger concern for a vehicle like that is future repair and maintenance costs. I’d want to see service and repair records before purchasing a vehicle like that. If you have a complete service history on the vehicle, it has been maintained according to the recommended schedules, and known problem areas have been addressed, then it could be a good deal. If you have no records at all, then it could be a money pit. I owned a first generation Cayenne S for ten years and put nearly 150,000 miles on it. It was reliable, but I maintained it properly and made repairs as necessary (including servicing and rebuilding the air suspension system). I sold it after ten years because I wanted something more modern and because repair bills were becoming more frequent and more expensive.

Good luck!

Default Thanks!

I plan on getting all of the info about about what the warranty covers and seeing if I can almost immediately use it to my advantage if issues pop up
