The only Cayenne specific thing not already mentioned is air suspension issues. It was optional on the S so they won't all have it. I'm yet to see anything with a long term reliable air suspension, and they're a nightmare once they start getting old.
What's the mileage on the S8? Our turbo is pretty darn good, gets about 22 around the town.

Darn it, the thing just cost me more money this morning! This was in my inbox:
