Has taken me a while, but finally some pics... Took delivery back in late Dec of 2006.

Regular options:
Adaptive sport seats
Rear axle diff lock
Heated seats
Rear window wiper
Park assist
Sport chrono pkg
GSM telephone module
6-disk CD changer

Exclusive options:
Thicker steering wheel rim
3-spoke multi-function steering wheel
Center storage compartment lid w/ model logo
Porsche crest in embossed in headrests
Gear Lever and hand brake w/ aluminum accents
Rear (center) console in leather
Foot rest in alum

Only real mod is the OEM XM unit (Cayenne part), integrates perfectly (thank you PorschePhd for the inspiration). Porsche claims they don’t offer it b/c they cant find a good place for the antenna, which is silly… My local dealer's (Rector) master tech did my “unauthorized” install, hid the receiver under the wiper cowl… works perfect, good reception, radio details show up on the nav system and dash… tough to find any trace of its install (hidden in the trunk) unless you toggle the FM/AM button and arrive at the XM screen.

I also added Porsche valve stems to the wheels, and the Porsche alum gas cap under the filler lid. And of course I swapped out the orange US side markers for the clear Euro-spec ones.

 

Great options congrats.....It is possible to order Michelin CUPS ?

 

I believe the CUPS are a Euro-only option... somone correct me if I am wrong here.

 

Congrats, she looks great! Nicely optioned as well.

In that above picture what is that crack there? Looks like the tire, but also looks like a pavement crack which I hope it is.

Sweet ride, congrats!

 

Its just the shadow the tire whiskers (not sure what they are called, but the little rubber whiskers found on new tires)... I see what you mean, but its just a weird angle w/ the shadow and light on over-dressed rubber (ArmorAll from the car wash) - tire and wheel are fine.

 

Your car is absolutley gorgeous , enjoy it in the best of health.

 

Well almost a twin car of mine optioned out similiar to mine............and lives in San Francisco too? Maybe we will run into each other (not literally speaking)? Very nicely optioned car! Drive her in good health and try to stay away from the potholes! My car touches the front lip every time I enter my driveway, I hope yours is not so steep? I live in the Marina District. PM me if you like?

 

Sweet ride mate.

 

Yup - my driveway is gradual enough to avoid scraping, but otherwise impossible to avoid some cosmetic damage to the lower lip in San Francisco (streets in SF are just awful)... Just have to committ to replacing it once a year or so... I think costs around $200, quick install.

 

Sweet ride BSM. Love the specs.

 

What's with the sidewalls?

 

Definitly looks strange in the pics, agreed, but its just a weird angle w/ the shadow and light on severely over-dressed rubber, almost looks like condensation (gobs of ArmorAll from the car wash - ugh)... I've since wiped off the excess dressing, sidewall is totally fine upon close inspection.

 

Great looking car!

 

Nice ride!
