hey,

I recently traded in my c43 for a porsche cayenne. These are some parts i was stock piling to refresh my c43. I knocked about $150 off retail and am trying to sell these as a kit. I may separate but it would be awesome to move it all at once.

here is the link to the thread in the classifieds...

Whoah, long time no see! Sorry to hear you got rid of your C43 but the Porsche should be fun.

Good luck with the sale, good price

hoontastic

yeah man, i miss the c43.. but the cayenne is awesome. Really I would have a TON of cars if it was practical.

Can't believe you didn't get the headers in yet!!!

You and me both I should get them installed after I return from vacation

I want the plugs and wires. How much just for those?

svt ricco

WHY a Cayenne? That is NOT a real Porsche but a road tank. I know the Cayenne and Panamera generate enormous sales and cash for the company and mothership VW, but a Porsche needs to be a sports car and not a heavy enormous SUV or lux vehicle.
Sorry for being negative, but I still wonder why selling a C43 for 'that'
Cheers

That's one of the most tired arguments I hear. The cayenne is the best driving suv. Not everyone needs or wants an suv. If you do want an suv that drives amazing for being a pig... Look no further. If you don't believe in SUVs well that is a separate affair all together. I'm sorry but I haven't enjoyed a car more. It is just as amazing offroad as it is onroad. It drives like a Porsche by the way. I have zero buyer's regret. Best road trip car ever. The c43 was not the best family car for me. It's really a bachelor's ride or a daily driver for someone who doesn't work from home. I still think c43's are awesome though. Plus I'm driving a cayenne for cheap it was a huge no-brainer.

Well, I hope it is at least a Turbo S version....

I, too, am interested in the plugs/wires (I'll get behind PJmak)

hoontastic

He hasn't gotten back to me.. so let's give him another day and then you can have em.

hoontastic

And its has GREAT onroad manners too. Plus its really fun on dirt roads hooning it rally style... so.... call it not a proper porsche, I just call it brilliant.

importfan21

Any word?

How much do you want for plugs + wires before shipping?

ProjectC55

We still want to know if its the "Turbo S" ,"Turbo",or just "S" n/a V8?

hoontastic

Just the N/A 'S' I totally would love a turbo but was targeting under $20k (paid $17k). That way I can afford to maintain it, lol. The sweet spot for pre-facelift turbos is 05-06 and good specimens are $25-30k still. However my S has the air suspension from the turbo and nearly every option plus a super rare dark green full leather interior. But it's like getting bitten by a wearwolf this will not be my last one. The grip and the limits make the beast fun but it's an awesome tourer too. Miles just melt away in the thing. But yeah cayennes are starting to get cheap so I had to jump in. Now I'm that dude with two v8 SUVs. My wife just doesn't like sedans but at least she doesn't lecture me about driving.

hoontastic

Hey importfan I will do $180 shipped. That's basically getting the plugs free.

importfan21

Alright; I get paid this coming Friday. If they happen to sell before then, I'll live.

hoontastic

No worries.. I'm not in a hurry. I could use them on the ml430 anyway in 30k.

PJmak

Sorry man Im gonna have to pass. I need seats for my car and a deal came up so Im gonna put that money towards that.

Ill eventually need plugs and wires so ill hit you up if you still have them
