Default I got my pop corn out and.....

Who will be the first one to have one?

My opinions, the front end looks like a corvette, the middle looks like that SUV thing they have and the back looks like a chrysler crossfire.... All three are nice cars.

I really like Choc ice cream, lobster and orange juice...... All three of them are good food too.

...yeah, just not at the same time, which is probably your point.

It's ok, you also don't like wheels that have more than 5 spokes or the best gen 928. We forgive you.

I thought the Cayenne was going to flop. They showed me. Mind you, a Toyota Hilux costs more second hand now.
These will sell, and they know it.
I wouldn't buy one on looks alone. It's hideous. The worlds gone mad!

Hmmmmm...

Has Porsche developed any product (besides the CGT) that the Air-Cooled 911+924/928/944 guys didn't hate BEYOND the air-cooled 911/924/928/944?

I doubt it.

I hate it too and I'm firmly in the wasser-boxer camp... Though I do see a 993 in my future.

I think the Panamera is like a goiter. It's grown on me. Had I the cash, I'd rock one.

I doubt it.
Totally incorrect. Water cooled 911's look good. ( Well, 996 mkI's headlights are on the edge... ) It's not the product ( or it's technology ), it's the design. Or should I say the total lack of it. No innovativity at all, just desperate copies of past products. Like Cayenne vs. Touareg, latter being zillion times better looking. Or compare Panamera to Lambos's 4-door concept to get the idea...
When looking pictures of the Panamera all Chris Bangle's designed BMW's start looking good. It's that bad.

Is it as long as a Maybach or does it just look that way?
I think the main problem with the looks is how different the angular front is from the curvy back. It looks slapped together and REALLY REALLY HUGE.

So has anyone bought one yet? More so, has one broke yet and they resorted to the internet looking for help?

I like everything Porsche has done except the Cayenne and Panamera.
