Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE To start out, this Porsche is very rare, even before the custom modifications. Under 50 of this model were made in the year worldwide. It is a Turbo model with Factory Blackout package, Factory Panoramic Roof and Factory Running Boards among other features. Hence it's almost impossible to find and thus resale value is a lot higher. As the dealer told me when I bought it, Cars like this just don't come on the market. A bit about me and the car, I'm a former Dot-com CEO who has lived in the Hollywood Hills for years. I sold a company to Amazon.com years ago and I bought this car as a backup car to my daily driver. I had unlimited funds when I bought this beauty so, if you can imagine, I basically customized this car, putting every dollar I could into it to make it exactly what a man would want in a luxury sports car SUV. I wanted the most powerful, fastest, and hottest-looking luxury SUV I could buy that would still allow me to be respected within the business community. To build this car new today would cost nearly $200,000. The car is in mint condition, every service was done on time, it was always hand washed and waxed and leather was treated. I've actually been traveling the past 2 years so this car has just been sitting my garage. This car TURNS HEADS both visually and audibly as it is unique and powerful. If you win this, get ready to show up to pick it up and be BLOWN AWAY by how nice the condition is and how amazing and unique the engine and exhaust sound :)TO THE CAR: This car features a complete rare Factory and Aftermarket Blackout package. The exterior features Porsche’s Factory Blackout package with Chrome trim. This includes factory shiny black paint on the panels between and above the windows and black rubber molding instead of the standard grey rubber molding. It also includes limo black colored tint on the back and rear windows and slightly lighter tint on the front two windows. Custom-added is factory black paint on every other area on the car to make the car one uniform color. Factory black running boards with chrome trim have been added to the car as well. Check out picture #3 and you'll see how the side panels, molding, and tint are all the same color, shiny, jet black, this is very different from most Cayenne Turbos. The Black rims are huge 22” Black Multi-spoke rims, custom-designed with 6-inch high-polished inset and lip, chrome silver-pained bolts, and see-through spokes showing off the huge fire-Red Porsche brake calipers. The Pirelli Scorpion tires and Factory Porsche Center Caps finish off the wheel design and turn this car into an absolute stunner, hotter and classier than any other $200,000 SUV on the street. The Custom Intake/Exhaust/Muffler System is highly-tuned and sounds amazing, Designed and installed at Globe Tire/AAA Motorsport, where most of the Los Angeles Lakers and other Hollywood stars take their cars, they were able to safely add nearly 50 horsepower and increase the fuel efficiency by nearly 2 miles per gallon. (540HP and fuel efficiency tested by computer). Definitely not cheap but the exhaust sounds and feels powerful, far better than most new Ferraris and Lamborghinis and still classy, not loud and obnoxious, and the 4-shiny round exhaust tips add modernity and class to the powerful sound. You could drive 10 Porsche Cayenne Turbos and you wouldn’t find one that accelerates as quickly and as smoothly as this one I promise you. I've pasted a link to a video you can watch and listen to the exhaust although it's much better in person. http://www.dropbox.com/s/41339dccv3xumta/VIDEO-EXHAUSTSOUND.mp4 The $12,000 Stereo System was installed at Sounds Good Audio. If you walk into their showroom you'll see trophy after trophy after trophy where they won audio contests for their amazing work. They work on almost all the Lakers, Clippers and Hollywood actors' cars. They custom-designed a system that looks 100% factory in terms of finish but is actually completely hidden and powered by a huge Alpine luxury line amp, 2 huge JL Audio Subwoofers, and a total of 10 speakers throughout the car. It's one of the sharpest sound systems you'll probably ever hear in your life and, visually, looks 100% factory as if nothing has been altered in the car. The interface is a Kenwood touchscreen with Sirius XM, Navigation, Ipod/MP3 hookup, Rear Camera, CD player and everything you would find on a brand new 2014 car. To give you some idea of how much attention to detail I had here, I made them exchange the head unit three times so that I was satisfied with both the look and sound and user-friendliness/safeness of controls. The car also comes with Factory Seatback LCD screens in both seats. If you like sun and fresh air the entire roof retracts due to the Factory Panoramic Roof, a $5000+ Option that is extremely rare to find. This particular model of Blackout, Turbo, and Panoramic roof is one they made only about 50 of in the entire nation. With NO accidents, NO body damage, and hand washing/garaging the overall design of black paint, tint, rims, and chrome features will TURN HEADS. This car would cost $200,000 to build if bought brand new today.

TO VIEW THE CAR IN PERSON, ASK QUESTIONS, OR MAKE AN OFFER TO END THE AUCTION EARLY CALL 323-854-1038 On Oct-03-14 at 14:24:26 PDT, seller added the following information: I've received several emails asking about the tires and maintenance so just wanted to update the listing. All maintenance was done as recommended or as needed and the records are available from Porsche Downtown L.A. or Royal Motors in Beverly Hills.Last Oil Change was done 400 miles ago , so you won't need another for a while.Almost all the tires are fairly new, and have been replaced in the past 5000 miles. There is just one which I might replace in 10,000 miles or so. I have also had the car professionally detailed ($170) including the standard clay wax, just 2 days ago, so it might even look better when you pick it up. The Registration and Smog were both done in the past 30 days and you will receive the actual Smog certificate along with the Title so this willsave you the time and money from having to do either again. Lastly, I didn't even realize, the car also comes with the Porsche Drive & Entry feature, if you choose to use it. This is a $1200 addition.This allows you to not use the key at all, as soon as you get close to the car and have your key in your pocket or wherever, the car noticesand it automatically unlocks the car for you, same thing for when you leave so you don't have to press the alarm/lock button.It also notices when you leave your key inside the car so you don't accidentally lock yourself out. thanksOn Oct-05-14 at 11:59:23 PDT, seller added the following information: I've received a few emails regarding shipping. Yes, I can ship Nationwide or even Internationally. If you want to pay via Wire Transfer or Cashier's Check I can even handle the shipping for you.I know a great and affordable shipper who charges about 10% less than most. I shipped my Maserati with him to Miami last year and it showed up 5 days later . He had put a car cover on it and drove it over himself on his 1-car flatbed truck. I think it's about $1200 from L.A. to the East coast or $600 to Washington or Texas, I think Arizona and Nevada are $500. Please note though, if you are an International (outside the U.S.) bidder, please email me and let me know how you intend to pay if you win,and I will put your user id in the pre-approved bidders list, because right now i have International bidders blocked. Any questions just call or text me 323 854 1038 thank you :)On Oct-06-14 at 14:19:18 PDT, seller added the following information: Tnx for your emails, I can't end the auction early at this point so please just bid high. I've received some 20 emails and I don't know who is going to win so I can help accomodate you with special needs after the auction is over. In the meantime you're welcome to call or text me. 323 854 1038 To give you an idea of price/value, the Blue Book for this model with its features and mileage, panoramic roof, etc is $42,500, Carfax says to add $2000 due to the excellent condition and clean title/maintenance history. There are approximately $25,000 in additions/modifications like the Stereo System, Blackout, Rims, Tires, Exhaust, etc. If you're having trouble ascertaining the value of a higher-end , rare model Porsche Cayenne Turbo with both factory and aftermarket customizations, I'll tell you, I took the car to 2 specialty dealers in L.A. that sell specialty high-end cars like Ferraris, and McLarens to athletes, ceo's and the hollywood crowd, and they offered to consign the car and price it between $50,000 and $55,000, before taking their commission. Also, check out the link below, this modified Porsche Cayenne Turbo, a 2006 model, 2 years older, with far, far fewer upgrades and factory features just sold on ebay yesterday for $40,000 in the last 5 minutes of the auction: http://www.ebay.com/itm/331330086465 Other questions I've received: I pasted the following items above but will clarify again: The car does Not have 5 owners. I bought the car as Certified Pre-Owned after it came off a dealer lease. The Autocheck reports seem to list 5 owners on the majority of Cayennes that come off of leases from what I saw. It was on a 3-year lease by Porsche in Downtown L.A., then it was restored to Certified Pre-Owned. Certified Pre-Owned means they restore even the minor things in the car so that it is like brand new and so they can provide a warranty on it and sell it for a higher price. They only do this with their best quality vehicles with little wear. You can see exactly what they replaced on the CarFax report: https://www.dropbox.com/s/snempdl069njeao/porschecarfax.pdf I think the 5-owner thing has something to do with the dealer owning it, then bank, then back to the dealer, etc. but, yes, i'm the only owner after the Porsche Certification. The lease was before the certification. Also, the car has Never been in an accident and has never incurred any mechanical issues or problems. It had a broken passenger side window years ago which was reported to the insurance and replaced by the dealership years ago but that's all. Again the Autocheck should really list that as an insurance claim , not an Accident, and the number should be more like an 86, not a 78. The CarFax doesn't list this item at all as you can see here. https://www.dropbox.com/s/snempdl069njeao/porschecarfax.pdf Hope this helps, Good luck!,
