Normally time behind on trends. It makes me happy to know I was so far ahead that I sold my lifted cayenne turbo tow rig before it was ever popular lol
Even 3 years ago when we built this car felt early on into the now massive trend its become. The growth in this scene has EXPLODED over the last few years!
Just picked up my 14th Porsche, a 2005 955 Turbo, AND I live about 2 miles from the NEW Gilbert/Mesa warehouse!!!! Will be doing videos on my 955CTT as well. Loved seeing this 957 up in Sedona
Ever since i was younger i dreamed of having a 957 gts Cayenne i saved up working and got one later in life long before the hype, im glad i got one Porsche is the way to go🤍there expensive to maintain tho be prepared🙏🏻
Great video and what insight as to what goes on with these. I have a 2006 Turbo S that is super clean but, unfortunately, is going to need another good home soon. I'd definitely offer it up as a project car for something like this - no doubt. This would be a way better outcome than just dumping it on the street or a dealer.
Definitely wondering about towing after the lift. I'd like to tow my Cayman to SCCA solo Nats with my Eurowise lifted Q7. Doncha luv VAG electrical connectors ? Do I want to know how much the compressor was ? 2009 BMW Z4 top hydraulic motor was $4k... Luckily, only $650 to rebuild. So, Bro, I heard you like fake beadlock bolts, so I beadlock bolted your beadlock bolts... I have massive rockrail envy... Love these vids, keep them coming. Doesn't look like overlanding is going to do anything but grow. Eurowise has earned all the business they get. They are killing it.
We've towed thousands of miles with this cayenne lifted on both 32's and 33's with no issues from it. The compressor was less than 1/4 the price of that on your Z4! The triple beadlocks were a wild look haha, we have since swapped on some Braids with their "Beadlock system" atleast functional!
You guys looking for another great project Cayenne like the one shown in this video? I have a '06 Cayenne Turbo S with 121K (Black on Black). Only mods are cat bypass pipes and a Hanksville Hot Rods muffler. Happy to discuss.
I've been looking at getting a Cayenne as a daily/track car tow rig. I'm trying to decide between a diesel with higher miles or the gas V6 with lower miles. How well do you think the base V6 can tow ~2015 MY
Base v6 is stout. It’s a A VR6 engine so it’s got a healthy amount of torque. Pretty reliable too. It will tow great. But the diesel will tow better. The diesel emissions stuff will cause some heartache and can either run perfect or be problematic with high mileage. The naturally aspirated V8s are pretty reliable too, I have a ‘10 GTS and its engine is solid, even when the previous owners weren’t the greatest with upkeep.
@@Skylinef22Timing chain and guide issues are fairly common and require an engine out service. Later vr6 have the oil pump nut issue. The vr6 is slightly more reliable than the v8 and requires less maintenance but it’s a heavy vehicle with not much power with the vr6 IMO
You already hot some great insights above! You'd be totally okay towing with a VR6, that said the diesel or V8 variant is the sweet spot for sure. We had a local customer towing his racecar with a Manual VR6 955, no air suspension , with no issues!
Never get the VR6, it is slower than a base 90's civic. I had most of them and the best is by far the V6 diesel. Fast, economical, ultra reliable and has a large range !
It’s a cool idea but I feel like the first quarter of the video is just making excuses why it’s ok for it to be so clapped out. 135k isn’t that many miles. Let’s get back to when premium meant lasts forever.
Love the fact that such an iconic vehicle becomes so versatile.
Fast, heavy duty and classy!!
Love the Cayenne.
It is timeless - and truly and engineered beast finally getting the love its always deserved!
@@fcpeuro-media i agree, nice Porsche turbo restoration👍🏻

We had a blast in Sedona with it!
I just picked up a 958 Diesel yesterday. First Porsche, first diesel. I've got a lot to learn, but I'm excited.

Yes! Another video with the Yippie Cayenne!
Bringing Yippie Cayenne back!
The anti rust treatment has been very good.

Wait no way hahah I dropped off some stuff at FCP Euro in CT on monday, I took a picture of this beast in the parking lot
Haha, now you know some backstory! Thanks for dropping by
Good video & nice work 👍

Nice work!!
Mikes outfit is the visual representation of "one last breath" by creed as you are wrenching on the car at 2am. And I'm digging it..
Bahahaha wow does that sum it up.
Glad it's finally got some #properwheesbybraidusa on it.
Makes me wish I would have bought one of these instead of my GL320... great video!!
you wouldn't have regretted it! There's still time haha
Hi ! How much spent on the built ?? MPG now ?? Gas station needed ⁉️😅
We try to ignore the MPG while towing haha - fully built HWY still around 12-13 mpg, around the city or towing .... not so much
This feels like FCP Euro meets Donut Media in the best of ways 🎉
Is this the one that got hydrolocked? What happened to it?
Sure is 😐full build is on the channel, it's livings it best second life possible!

@@hadrienlf23 It’s fine for a daily commuter. But towing with the VR6 is misery

It's clapped because it's gets used.. nothing pretty lasts off road. Not Toyota, not Porsche.
That's cute. A few trails and maybe camping and your all in your fast Porsche lol
It can do it all!
hmm becaus the owner ownes a parts factory LOL
Ben wishes he owned a parts factory 🤣 Just lucky enough to be an employee at FCP Euro - with the full website available in person!
omg why the mask??? lol love the vid!
This was shot way back during Peak Covid - only way we were allowed in office!
come on don't buy meyle they suck

Sorry to dissapoint!
