Saw my first Panamera in the metal on Sunday. After church. And as soon as I saw it I felt all dirty. Something that ugly should be a sin. What I will say though is that the pics don't do it any justice. It is better than it looks in the pictures, but not by much.
And here in NZ the fully spec'd out Panamera 4S cost $304k. Or in plain English: $14k more than a Merc S500 and $15k less than the Maserati Quattrporte S. And I just can't see anyone paying 14k more for the Porsche than the Merc. The Merc is much much better looking and just as Stuttgart. Then the Maserati.. $15k more for something you can love and enjoy seeing everyday? I think that's a pretty small price to pay. I'd happily pay $150k more. I won't but I would if that was what was necessary.
What's happened to Porsche? They used to have such beautiful cars (Carrera GT, 928) but now; Cayenne and then this? Hmm... Luckily my day was saved when I saw this black beauty.
