Technically a 987S/C. I have heard about some of the shortcomings but I agree that there's a lot of potential than Porsche released in this chassis. The brakes on the 987S/C are the same as the base Carrera. The fun of setting up a car is to drive it, identify weaknesses, improve it, and measure the results. Just me, but I wouldn't believe some of the "experts" on the forums.
I mistakenly trusted some Rennlist "experts" while setting the Cayenne up for towing and now have 2 extra mail order electrical parts on the shelf that weren't necessary. On the GTI forum, people believe that you need a $500 VAG COM unit to clear an "over revs/exceeded speed" message that tips the dealer off regarding your aftermarket chip and voiding your warranty....still not convinced on that one (next to the 955/2 parts on the garage shelf).
PS- George I like the new track ride. You've run the gamut of blue (team), to red, and now white. You're a great American!
