    Just bought a Cayenne Turbo

    It seems that the upcoming facelift will be presented at the 07 Detroit motorshow. It should be available from February 2007 on. And since that is still too far away we decided to take the plunge right now. So it became a Cayenne Turbo Black/Black which will be delivered in December 05 or January 06.

    And so the pre-modding begins I would like to ask if people can share as many pictures as possible with me, preferably black CS or CTT but with different wheels. For now I THINK I will buy the 22" Formula TechArt in mineral silver OR shinny black (GTS).
    I'm still considering installing the TechArt lowering module as well along with their headlight covers.

    Any help/advice would be more than welcome!

    Re: Just bought a Cayenne Turbo

    Congrats Rami! My CT is totally stock, there's nothing aftermarket for expensive cars here

    Re: Just bought a Cayenne Turbo

    Congrats! IMO the TA Formula is the only good looking aftermarket wheel on the Cayenne.

    Re: Just bought a Cayenne Turbo

    Thanks guys!
    Concerning the wheels I've narrowed it down to the following: TechArt 22" Formula GTS (black) or Formula mineral silver, the five spoke Gemballa in silver or last but not least the Sportec 22" Mono10 (polished).

    I'm still looking for a picture of a black Cayenne with 22" BLACK TechArt wheels. If anyone here has those on HD plz let me know.

    Re: Just bought a Cayenne Turbo

    Fantastic choice, Here's mine, now has 5000 KM's and I enjoyed every Kilometer!! Has 22" Gemballa's painted in black inside. Full carbon fiber package, tequipment silver grille, reverse camera, and many other goodies.

    Nope...they are the Gemballa's....


    Congrats Rami, and good choice on the TA 22's...they are stunning wheels. .....You might also want to check out those 23" Rinspeeds which are similar styling to the TA and Gemballa's....they are very nice too.

    Let's see your pre-modded pics then!

    Re: Just bought a Cayenne Turbo

    Thx Mish! I've seen the Rinspeed wheels, they do look very very nice but I fear the size a bit. They are as you said 23" and that leaves extremely little room for the tires. I suppose they will run on 295/25 and for an SUV I think that's too narrow. Correct me if I'm wrong please.

    I don't have pre-modded pics yet ... because the car will arrive in December or January. Once we got it I will post some pics tho

    I thought gemballa rims were manufactured with the word "gemballa" inscribed on one of the spokes (please correct me if im wrong)

    Re: Just bought a Cayenne Turbo

    finally you have a great photo Fawaz LOL! those wheels are hot, love the frozen rotors

    Re: Just bought a Cayenne Turbo

    Rami, I doubt that Porsche starts offering a facelift in the middle of a model year. The rumor of a MY 2007 (starting summer 2006) is getting stronger and stronger, I just hope you made the right decision because the 450 HP engine will not be offered anymore for the Turbo, power will go up by at least 30-40 HP, rumors indicate 500 HP for the facelifted Cayenne Turbo. You can imagine the drop in value on "old" Turbos with the stock power.

    Come on RC, spill the beans...All rumours I am hearing are still pointing to MY08 Facelift. With the imminent arrival of the Turbo S - Porsche wouldn't dare drop the current 450hp and offer 500 as standard - with the S kicking in at an extra (5)20hp?? - ludicrous, where's the value?

    I'm going for Turbo S (520-550) to be introduced around March 06...Facelift ready for Summer 07 .MY08 (500hp)...

    Mine are an older version without the word Gemballa on them which I prefer.Your wheels are very nice too!! Rami; I will post more pictures soon (once I get my digital camera working again ) with interior shots of the Carbon Fiber package.

    Re: Just bought a Cayenne Turbo

    It wasn't a question about waiting for the facelift anymore. Our current car is simply not reliable anymore so it was time to get another. From what I have seen on the spyshots I'm not really fond of it anyway. As you said it goes more and more towards the front of the Audi Q7. I had high hopes for the Q7 but when I actually saw it in Frankfurt I was highly dissapointed
    About resale value ... well I don't care too much about that really ... I'm a Porsche enthousiast and when you buy a new one you simply know you're gonna get cut (for the latest models in any case). We will keep this one for at least 4 years so by that time the 956? will be for sale

    Hey Rami,

    As promissed, Here are several pics of the Carbon Fiber package.

    Hey Fiero,

    I used to get more vibration with the 20" wheels than the 22". After upgrading the brakes to 380 mm and 8 caliper pistons, I no longer get vibration on acceleration braking or cruising. The ride suffers a little and you get more road noise but to me the sounds are no issue at all. My C4S and Audi RS6 has more noise. Remember the suspension has different settings for comfort, sport or normal which you can adjust to your liking. I drive on normal setting most of the time.
