Any plans to trade in your car when your lease expires. Since you driven the old x5, the new one is great.

Hello, Thank you for the replies! I've since read up on the issue on a few other Porsche Cayenne forums, and apparently, it's not that unusual to need replacement tires at 15,000 miles given the weight of the car and the fact that the tires are high performance. I love the car and hope to get another at lease end, which is something I have never done before (same car twice in a row)! Thanks again!
