You might not like the looks on it, but in any test the Panamera completely rips the competition a new one.
if memory serves me right, ferrari launched a similar model (i,e 4 seater) but that did'nt flare well either although in all honesty it was a sweet looking car!

Yeah, four doors with the hatchback.

The front looks nice, love the engine, but the full view of the car is ugly as hell.

What, in terms of luxury sedans?

The 612 Scaglietti. The problem with that car is that it's two and a half times the price of the Panamera, so it never took off. The Panamera, like the Cayenne, is and will continue to be a major success for Porsche.

Pretty much, think big engined 7-series, S-class or Aston Martin's Rapide.

I prefer all three, really.

But I know the Porsche 4.8L Turbo engine kicks some major fanny.

On looks, I'd have to agree, definitely the Aston, but that's also double the price of the Panamera.

I'm not a big fan of the Panamera's looks myself, especially the back, but it kind of grew on me, I see them by the dozens in Germany. It's just that apparently they're a ridiculously good drive. A lot of people will jump to the opportunity to drive a big Porsche saloon, as they never used to make those.

I honestly don't know what I'd do if there were a 7-series and Panamera infront of me and I could pick, as you're in the car when you're driving it.

I really do prefer the Turbo engines.

After having one myself, I can't get enough of the awesomeness of the power and the sound, despite the more expensive cost of repair. My 2000 1.8T Passat still gets going very well, and 2002 1.8T Jetta is even better. Such fun to drive.

My cousin had a 1.8T Passat til about two years ago, lovely drive. :tup:

I love turbo engines, especially big diesels, torque monsters.

Watching Robben rip it up for Bayern. Still 0-0 though.

I haven't driven a Turbo Diesel yet but I'd like to. My dad has been looking at the A4 and A6 inline 6's and the TDI's. I'm really hoping he gets one of those opposed to a Japanese sedan like the Acura TL.
