My new Panamera 4S

It's the 4S and the only thing I have found wrong with it so far is that it's a loaner car that my boss got from the dealership. :(

Maybe he's lying and it's my bonus! Or my new company car! I haven't screwed up much lately right?

So you've had bandages over your eyes the whole time and are typing this on a braille interface?

I suspect that the Panamera is one of those cars that, if I ever drove it, I wouldn't care what it looks like.

I can't wait until they start coming off lease.

Reminds me of Judy from the IT Crowd...

I saw one in a parking lot and scoped it out for a while from different angles. I don't think its ugly.

It's not ugly to me. But that's not saying much.

I'd hit it.

Is that a handicap space?

Will the boss buy the idea if you tell him that riding in the Porsche with his smartphone has screwed up the servers with an IT error by way of bluetooth? Tell him you will need the key and his phone (now can't call you) to correct the issue.

Ah he must be blind.

I've driven all of them from the Hybrid to the Turbo S. While it's a reallllllly nice car, there are so many others I'd take, hands down, for the price. It drives big. Really big. But handles so well for a luxury car – and equipped with the optional sport exhaust button and adaptive suspension setting - is pretty thrilling.

The modern version of Lumburg's car at Initech.

...is boring

Turbo ass looks good with the spoiler up.

i really like panameras. alot. like more than I like boxsters, but not as much as a cayman. and nowhere near a 911. but if I could afford such an expensive DD, I'd make the jump.

From the driver seat the car looks just fine.

I drove one last year. if you must tote the children to and from polo practice when the au pair is still stuck in customs, I highly recommend it.

Time for a thread-jack. The Lumburg Porsche 911 is still out there--kind of. I forget the entire story, but either the main car used for the movie or the stunt double for the towing scene was recently parted out by someone on the Pelican Parts forum. I thought it would be cool to buy a piece of that car, but then realized that I have enough stuff.

Anyway, back to your regularly scheduled message board chatter.

I can't see why some one in their right mind would buy one over a Jaguar XJ or MB CLS...

I throw up in my mouth a little every time I see one. Good thing it's fast, otherwise there would be no reason not to crush them all.

I like them...a lot. Only other car(s) that would compete for my hard earnt 'murican cashish would be an E55 or E63 wagon.

One drives like a Porsche, the others drive like Jags and Mercs?

I'd rather drive the Jag.

Was at the Porsche dealer with my friend getting his Boxster perked up when a Panamera 4S just like that came in on a rollback with the front end all messed up... from a test drive. Wups.

When my dad was buying his truck from the Dodge dealer a few years ago, they were still cleaning up out front from where a customer had demolished his brand new Viper as he drove it off the lot... Makes you wonder how often that kind of thing happens.

I don't think it's ugly either. I know it's ugly
