I really like the coupe look.
Yes Smithy, I think Porsche have got the coupe profile just right, sporty without looking simply hacked off like a X6. It looks like a 10% bigger Macan in many respects which is no bad thing. I do have some concerns with the electronics remembering your problems, just hope that they have got to the bottom of them now that its been out there for a couple of years. Not sure if they'll ever do it but this drivetrain in a Macan would be a wonderful thing.

This thread got me looking at the Porsche Approved Used website (out of curiosity ;) ). I was surprised to see that quite a few of the Cayenne E-hybrids were being offered at considerably more than ordering a new one. Porsche must be hoping there is a large pool of untapped demand.

I did a lot of homework on Porsche approved myself before buying and there does seem to be a wide variety of prices both high and low for supposed Demo cars. The vast majority of these cars even if they claim to have two or three thousand miles when in fact they are factory fresh with only a handful of miles, no more than a normal factory order. I would be surprised if a phone call to any of the highly priced cars didn't bring them in line with the cheapest , thats what I found when I made a few enquires. So my friend, pick one you like and make them an offer they cant refuse ;)

I’ve not seen or heard any more problems since my issues, so I’m sure you will have many trouble-free miles. Enjoy it. She’s a stunner and the interior is gorgeous.
Keep the pics coming!

Unlike the BMW or MB Coupe SUVs I think the Cayenne actually looks good.

Enjoy.

My itchy feet have struck!
Just placed a deposit on a Taycan 4S, delivery last quarter this year. Lots of "man logic" and "man maths" involved...but life is short
