They have done a great job....IMHO

I think it looks brilliant. Still bloody useless to me as for some unknown reason they insist on giving it only 4 seats. I'll just have to stick with my Cayenne as a child carrier.

strange - Porsche tend to get the 911 right first time, but other models require a gen 2 refresh

Cayenne - god the first one was ugly, refresh so much better
Cayman - 987 was overly delicate and looked a bit girly IMHO, 981 looks great
Panamera - nice front half but oh dear that arse, now sorted

[Koln-RS]

It's definitely an improvement.

But, if it's the same size as the old Panamera, it's still too big for my tastes.

Have to agree, it looks great and the tech looks good too. Can't wait for the next gen Cayenne Turbo is this is a sign of things to come!

Yep - I agree with you too - I can deffo see the interior being carried to the new Cayenne. Can't come soon enough as am getting pretty bored with my Range Rover Sport right now but can't see anything on the market worthy of replacing it with!

Just an opinion - beauty is in the eye of beholder of course, but to me the 981 looks far more aggressive and purposeful/sporty

Bigger I believe.

I'm told the new Cayenne will be the same interior style layout

Have you noticed the Panamera Turbo is now 4.0 and not 4.8, so assume the Cayenne Turbo will follow

The one that interests me is the new 4S Diesel, wow on paper its quick and if that follows to the Cayenne, might be time to go diesel

You'll be pleased to hear about the 5 seat option then

[Klippie]

The rear spoiler deploying is like something from a stealth fighter...very cool, huge improvement in looks over the current car.

Nice...

[medieval]

Yes - rather smitten with the bifurcating spoiler.

Yes please

[red997]

..the old (current ) turbo spoiler is pretty much the same as the new one...

What's this about a 5 seat option ...?

Probably speculating about the estate version - assuming like the Merc CLS SB they give it a full rear bench instead of 2+2 in the 4dr

Best not to spec 'Black' and make sure the dealer doesn't put the flowers in the back.

Looking at it again - words can't describe what an ugly car that is - who at Porsche could llook at that and think - yep , we nailed it , well done chaps

I really like the new Panamera, they seemed to have really nailed the styling.

Jesus, come on will you? That is clearly a prototype with cladding, why would you think the SB will look anything like that? It's going to look a LOT like this:
