I disagree that these cars are unreliable. I have a 2008 w 6 cylinder and have 155,000 miles on it. My wife and kids drive it and has been by far most reliable car I have had with exception to a tie to my 89 Porsche 911.

Here's what you need to check on: the drive shafts go on the Cayenne but you can buy a new refurbished shaft from Vertex auto parts in FL for a reasonable cost. The brakes wear a little faster than normal SUV's because they are heavy cars but engines if cared for last a lot longer without issues than any Audi or American SUV. My air blower went and that was not expensive. Cant think of anything else that has gone wrong on these cars. Finding a mechanic away from dealer that has the expensive software is key if engine warning light goes on. That happened but was a simple seal by gas tank.

If you can find an 08 - 09 before body redesign for low teens that's a great deal.

Good luck,

Matt
