Hi boys, I am an older female who has driven Porsches since before most of you were born. 1960 saw me in a '58 356A Coupe. My first Cayenne Turbo was 2004, 30,000 miles in 11 months and I wanted the rear view camera and pano roof....so.....BIG HIT on trade. Exact figures were about $30,000 diff. But I got a roof, camera, wooden gearshift and every other option. Maintenance is actually not as expensive as one might thiink. Back in 1958, my VW required oil changes every 1500 miles, valves adjusted every 3000 miles and when one figures inflation etc., it is cheaper to maintain a Cayenne....depreciaton excepted. Tires...I took the summer tires off my 2005 Turbo at 20 miles and put on Khumo all season tires. Wear rating is about 460. At 20,000 miles they still have at least 1/2 their tread left. Mucch better than my original tires on my 2004 which I replaced at 18,000 miles. Hope to hear some more on this site.........Fantine |

Replying to: highender (Oct 08, 2006 12:52 am)  Remember that the Europeans change their oil every 10,000 miles or longer and think we're crazy for harping on 3,000 mile oil changes. I'm on a 7,500 mile interval on the Quest with plain oil and it's lasted 113,000 miles so far.

Hi, everyone. As you've probably noticed, we have been trying to refine the discussions into more narrowly focussed topics. Our objective is twofold. We want to make it easier for people seeking specific information about their vehicles to find it easily and without having to wade through hundreds or thousands of postings. To those ends, we will be shutting down the general make/model discussions and work exclusively with specific issues. This requires us to populate the make/model subsections with relevant, interesting and timely topics. Rather than having the hosts simply create boilerplate topics for each make/model, we feel that you, the owner, the make/model enthusiast and the prospective buyer can best judge what those topics should be. You can help by adding a discussion (it's easy!) or suggesting one here. To add a discussion, click on the last link in the "You are here" line at the top of this page. That will take you to the topic page for this make/model. Review the list of topics and click on the "Add discussion" link when you've decided what topic you'd like to add. Follow the directions and you're done! Feel free to add more than one. Just avoid duplicating existing topics and try not to make it TOO specific! Your help and continued participation in the Forums is greatly appreciated! Thanks. |
