i find the white s to be very nice.

 

Gorgeous car, especially with windshield tint:

 

If I was drunk and on crack I would still not be seen in it.

 

Nah, Looks shithouse

 

Would definitely drive one, but you asked purely about looks. Not a pretty car.

 

It has a goofy, almost Saab-like look to it. I like!

 

This.

It's not what you expect when you see a Porsche, but it still looks awesome...

 

its growing on me.

when i first saw it i threw up in my mouth a bit.

now if i step back and look at it as a car... not a porsche it isnt bad. especially for a 4 door

 

I kind of agree with this, but it goes against everything porsche... they do 1 thing well and should stick to it. But even then, you can buy like 15 different 911's ranging from $80,000 to $200,000, why? And then what the hell are you doing ferrari... the FF?! I mean, are you kidding me? While it is a crazy fast car and an engineering marvel for sure, a hatchback ferrari? wtf for? A v-12 and your first AWD platform... for that hideous piece of turd?

It's just engineers showing off and making stupid unnecessary shit. All part of the problem with the entire car industry as a whole right now IMO. It's like, let's offer people all this over engineered crap they don't need and probably won't use. And then when you get down to the nitty gritty, all the important bits that actually make the car a CAR, are junk (maybe not with the pan' or FF).

Kind of funny that I'm enjoying driving my 85 c900 turbo on a daily basis and leaving my 03 9-5 aero sitting in the driveway most of the time (and I know I'm not the only one doing this sort of thing). Not saying my 9-5 isn't a great car, but when it really comes down to the pleasure of driving? I'll take the c900.

Manufacturers need to spend more time worrying about building good, fun, quality cars instead of how many gigs of memory the infotainment system has. Or maybe consumers need to focus more on these things... I don't really know anymore.

.End Rant

 

Don't care too much for it look wise

 

Not a fan of the car at all. Also not a fan of the new BMW hatchback/sedan mutation. But then again, I'm definitely not in the target market for either of these brands so my (or most of our) perspectives might widely vary from the info Porsche/BMW got when doing their market research. Anybody know how these are selling? Are they failing?

 

Ballin outrageous:

 

id rock that hard. from the back seat with an F1 driver at the wheel.

 

I think they look good in person.

 

This. I wasn't thrilled at the pictures but the Microsofties with kids/dogs have been buying them up around here. They look 100% in the metal.

I have seen SO many of them... it's pretty unreal. I'd take a Quattroporte instead just to be different /saabguy

 

you lost me at "4 door Porsche".

 

Whoever you're debating about this, it's not worth the time.

Yuck.

 

Nope.

 

Saab owners calling a Porsche ugly. Awesome

 

I lol'd

 

Yeah there are a billion of them down here.

I don't hate them quite as much as I did when they first came out, but the classmates are so much hotter. The Rapide is way more expensive but actually looks the business. I'm a fan of the Maser too, and the Karma (also a surprising number around here... see 3-5 a week, none of which are on fire).

 

Yeah of course the Rapide would be the #1 choice for me but at double the price... eek.


The Panamera is a good "i can only have one car but it needs to do all things pretty well"

m5?

 

the panamera/quattro porte/tesla model s all looking strikingly similar to me from b pillar forward, and i like them all

Its an attractive car. But if i had the money and needed a 4dr, id still get a 2dr.

 

If given the choice between driving a Panamera and a Pinto, I would rather ride a PeeWee Herman bike.

 

This thing looks great, saabish, of course!

what is saabish though?
Here some details about some facts that cought my attention.


- you cant buy a new audi or bmw anymore
Without a turbo

- the tuning that one likes to object his worn saab to,
Can be bought pretty soon directly from factory.

-Saab ecopower = bmw efficient dynamics

-saabs unusual designs, i saw the new tesla 4 seater recently,
I have to say that thing remindedd me of Saab 9000,
Not in terms of exterior, but the whole drivetrain size
And interior space....

 

It looks like a Hyundai :th_thumbsdownsmiley.

 

Base model compared to base model here:

4.6 Biturbo V8 with 402 HP, 0-60 in 5.1 seconds, and 25 MPG highway. Starts at $72k.

3.6 V6 with 300 HP, 0-60 in 6 seconds, and 27 MPG highway. Starts at $76k.

On top of that, to get a Panamera that will compete with the CLS AMG you'd have to spend nearly $140k whereas the Benz is at $96k.

So yeah, I think I'd get the much prettier, cheaper, and better performing Benz.

 

Panamera: no like.

Panamera wagon? Yes plz!

Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo Concept: Yes, It's A Porsche Wagon
