Much dirtier after we got back and dumped the muddy bikes back on the roof.

My Mrs loves them and face lift car a bit prettier but still a bit slab sided for my liking. However its deeply impressive. If it was a 5 seater I reckon my wife would have one.

The acceleration in this clip is just unbelievable for a two tonne car. Its actually defying physics doing 0-60 in 3.6s and 0-100 in 8.3s. Power to weight ration of 280 bhp per tonne should not be able to put those figures in so I'm guessing it has far more ponies than Porsche is letting on and at least well over 600bhp for sure. Thats as quick as a 997.1 turbo which is staggering and has 303bhp per tonne. Just blew me away what its capable of on track.

Thanks for the feedback everyone, like I said in an earlier post the Panamera is marmite. When the Panamera first launched I too personally thought it was ugly but as time went by it began to grow on me until it started to then make sense for me to have one. I had a 997.1 Turbo and it was a mind blowingly good car and the Panamera is in my opinion equally as quick but it has the extra practicality because of its size. This one is well specced and of course with it being a Turbo S it has a lot of the options built in as part of the package.


Here's a couple more pictures of it

Looks are subjective, but yes in the flesh I think it's a great looking car.
