Calling all 911 owners who also own a Cayenne/Macan

If you could check in with this thread, that would be awesome. Seems like a good idea to build the database for those Porsche SUVs
Calling all 911 Owners

I subscribed to your linked thread. I have been timidly thinking about a Cayenne. I don't have the funds to buy something that is going to cost me 5K a year in repairs. But I like the car.

I feel you on that, hence the Lexus rather than the pepperwagon.

It is a huge pig of a thing

i’ve been thinking about a Cayenne. My issue is a) that it seems you have to DIY everything for the cost to make sense and b) gas prices . . . an outing to the coast (200 miles) would cost, what, $50 just in gas?

I'm in the timid camp. I sort of want one, then I look at my trouble-free Volvo wagon and I think 'what can the Cayenne do that my V70 can't do?'.

Aside from running up big bills, I can't what the Cayenne gets me.

Sold my Cayenne during the pandemic. Never got to take it to Tahoe which was one of the reasons I bought it...

I’ve had a few cayennes and a macan, but I’m a 944 owner not a 911 owner ��
