Spent $400 on an oil change, so there’s that.

Reliability is very high on Porsche. Higher than most Japanese makes. Maintenance will be quite costly though

Older models used to have electrical issues. My sister-in-law had one and got fed up with it.

Cayennes and Boxters aren't real Porshes, bro. Don't waste your money. Get a 350 F Sport and laugh as you have a way cooler car for less dough

While Porsche has a reliability record right below Lexus (some don’t realize this), this isn’t the vehicle to hit 200k.

Only luxury brand I’d trust at that amount is Lexus.

IMHO you should be considering the 4Runner as well.

Remember, the Cayenne is a Toureg, though Volkswagen owns Porsche.....so

Yeah. No.

And it’s apples to oranges. Besides Porsche is light years cooler than Lexus.

I would love for her to get a 4runner. She's not interested at all. And, I tried to get her to look at a Telluride. She won't even look at it because it's a Kia.

Thanks for the help.

German Mechanics love them some snooty stuck up spoiled brats. Love taking their money and laughing all the way to the bank. Your wife isn't looking for a mechanically efficient ride, she's looking for a status symbol.

Avoid European cars. I find they are garbage. Once one thing breaks it seems to snowball into constant repairs.
