Relisting because the wining bidder never paid and never replied to many attempts at contact. The auction requires $500 PayPal deposit after 48 hours of auction closing. This is pretty much same across the board for all car listings. !!! Please do not bid if you are not going to buy. This is just annoying to everyone involved. !!!! Up for grabs is a beautiful AWD premium Porsche Cayenne S NO RESERVE AUCTION!!! High bid wins, no playing around with a reserve here. SO bid with confidence you will be the owner. Features:Sunroof, BOSE sound, multi-disk changer, navigation, black leather interior, heated seats, heated mirrors, heated steering wheel, AWD/4WD.

Noted issues captured in the pictures: Two of the pictures capture a little rust on the rear passenger door inside and outside. There are two pictures that capture a couple small spots on the rear hatch that have missing paint (not sure what these are from). There are a couple pictures of the passenger side rear bumper cover edge that has some damage in it. It is mostly cracked paint with a little poke/slice. It is nothing crazy extreme, but I want to try to disclose everything I possibly can about this car. I want you to be comfortable in the purchase knowing how it looks and how it is. Noted mechanical items that are present:Sometimes the transmission shifts hard between a couple gears, but it isn't a constantly happening thing. It really depends on how you are driving it actually. Smooth, normal driving and you probably would never notice the shifting thing. If you are ripping on it, you will get harder shifts from 2nd -3rd and sometimes from 4th - 5th shift. It presents as appearing like it went into neutral and revs out the engine high and then it can all of a sudden "jam" into the proper gear. A little time getting used to this and you will find it isn't something that you will encounter with any frequency. We don't let the fuel level get below 1/4 of a tank. The driver side fuel pump quit a few years ago and the Porsche forums say the passenger pump can't pick up fuel under 1/4 tank. I can't say if this is true, but we never ran out of gas following this rule. The car has duel fuel pumps is why it is still fully operational. Rear hatch shocks are letting the hatch fall again, as it did prior to me replacing the shocks, which are just over a year old. Very disappointed in the replacement parts, as I would have figured it would last longer. Mostly an annoyance thing, but it is irritating to fix it for such a short time. Overall it runs like a champ otherwise and its still a great car.Clear PA title in hand. Ready to go to the you, the happy new owner. NON SMOKER/ garage kept and adult owned car that was well maintained. Buyer will either need to pick up locally, or coordinate some form of shipping after successfully winning the auction. On Jan-07-18 at 11:12:19 PST, seller added the following information: I know I already wrote this, but please don't waste everyone's time with the fake bidding junk. If you are a 2 day old ebay account that has 0 (zero) feedback, you won't be bidding on this Cayenne. If you don't have any money, don't bid. This car is "NO RESERVE" which means if you are high bidder, you own it. So don't bid values of money that you don't intend to pay/have the ability to pay. This should all be common sense, but it really seems like that isn't the case anymore. While I am at it: Hey ebay, you can make your site suck just a little less if you make the bidding requirements page a tab bit less complete crap. The options I can "select" to limit bidders are almost completely worthless overall. Two absolutely useful options would be: "require bidders ebay account to be X days old" and the other great one would be "require bidders feedback to be X number of entries". That last idea can be very useful in blocking all these trash bids that take place. On Jan-09-18 at 10:15:23 PST, seller added the following information: Just realized ebay doesn't show why I killed the one bid on the Cayenne. This is what I wrote as the reason: Appears to be a 0 (zero) feedback Troll user that was created on January 5, 2018 I only had that many characters to draft my reply with a reason for cancellation. The "high bidder" was a likely fake account that was created as noted on Jan 5, being a day or so after I post the Cayenne up for sale again. The account had 0 feedback as I noted as well. It doesn't take a genius to know that this was a totally junk bidder who was just causing trouble. Seems like they make these accounts and then they go and high bid things out and win, only to not pay or not be contactable or anything. Why is ebay not doing more to stop this stuff? Hey ebay, you are failing yet again with this whole bidding deal that you supposedly are good at. If you fix your crappy bidder limitation page as I noted in my past comment, this would be super easy to eliminate the trash. The part where I struggle is trying to figure out what benefit these fake peple get out of doing this. They have to be doing it just to piss with people is my best guess. Like what does it do for them? It just ruins the auction for the real bidders and totally junks up things for the seller. Do they get some sort of sick pleasure being able to screw people around? Anyway, now you watchers know what is up with the whole price drop back to a single bid deal. The high bidder was a 2 day old, zero feedback troll that should be banished from all of ebay. As is still the case, this Porsche is a no reserve auction that will be yours if you are high bidder.
