Yes it's been a month and a half and I'm starting to miss the Boxster . I figure down the road there will be another one. Usually I sell to someone that will thoroughly love the car...but he is sitting on a lot lonely.

The Cayenne is very nice. I love the low end torque, it's intoxicating. I do sometimes wish for a red line of 7k instead of 4.5k especially at high speed when I want that slingshot feeling. Around town though the diesel engine is awesome, just a slight tap of the gas and zoom. The turbo has almost no lag. Gas mileage is amazing. Drove to the Adirondacks and back last month and averaged 34mpg and that was using a cetane of 40. With a higher cetane the mpq jumps even more, hard to find though. I like being in a 4800lb vehicle and not having to fill up every week. Six to seven hundred miles on a tank.

I installed a dash cam too. The video didn't upload so well but if you advance to 1:48 I turn away from the low fall sun and it gets pretty clear. Tiesfung A118 - YouTube
