Default New Panamera Turbo S

Closed the deal yesterday, pick it up tomorrow. Very excited. Coming from a 2009 Cayenne Turbo S, hope I won't miss it!

I would be very interested to have your feeling about ride comfort differences, between the two !
(We have a Cayenne Turbo and Panamera 4S with air suspension), and I feel on my side that the CTT is as stiff as my track car (PSS9 on each corners !), and comparing the CTT to the Panamera, the Panamera is a REAL flying carpet (i.e.: Panamera + air suspension = the most comfy car and best GT that we ever had !)

Yeah, I drove the PTTS yesterday and even sitting lower than the CTTS, it felt a lot smoother.

Very interesting. I compared my '11 CTT with PDCC to a loaner '15 or '16 Panamera S, and CTT was slightly better over small bumps and much more comfortable over bigger bumps. But it's apples to oranges because PDCC makes a lot of difference, at least in CTT.

did the panamera S have air suspension? That could make a huge difference.

I do not think it did. I'll make sure to drive one with air suspension and pdcc. It makes sense that Panamera would be more comfortable - it has the lower center of mass, so it does not need to have suspension as stiff to counter weight transfer.
