Final Update: Ended up with a 2013 Cayenne gas tip. I liked the low end push of the oil burner, but the $3-5K price difference does not pencil out. I like the more car-like noises of the tip when pushed. Ended up with a good deal, really nice vehicle. Spent a whole lot more than I started out planning to do, but with the tax benefits and need to get it done by the 31st, time and convenience won.

I would have preferred the Toureg, but the super-deluxe interior and amenities are amazing. The gauge cluster screams Porsche, and the multi-function display in the cluster is really cool. Santa said I was a good boy, and you only live once...

Thanks for all the advice.
