2008 Porsche Cayenne GTS review from North America
"It is a fine automobile"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The paint is damaged by "grit"on the road during normal winter driving conditions. This happened the very first time I drove over mountain passes on the freeway. The damage is extensive to the wheel well area and the trim around the wheel area. The damage has now extended to other areas of the paint on the side of the car. The car is black and the primer underneath is white. The dealer and the regional rep have refused to acknowledge responsibility.
General comments?
Other than the paint, the car is awesome.
