LOVE white 928's...especially GTS's. Love that pic too.. Oh, wait, I TOOK THAT PIC! LOL!
Chuck's PanAm is AMAZING! No doubt about it. The best looking one I ever saw, lowered (or looks to be) nicer, better wheels, and a GREAT COLOR!

everybody thought the 928 was big back in the day, but more accurately it is "spacious" inside, and big? Just try hiding stereo equipment in one- every nook and cranny has functional stuff jammed in there.

I would own a panamera in a second especially the turbo if it were a 5 seater. That is my only issue with the car. Although lately they are becoming quite common and see at least one a day. They are becoming more popular than the Cayenne's around me. So I will stick with the cayenne which is a great all purpose vehicle.

Same goes for the rumored upcoming 2-door version. Calling it a 928 will be a disservice to our cars.
"Our" 928 didn't start live as a sedan, much less a shared platform (Piech has talked about using the Panamera chassis under their other brands).

It totally fails at a special car's 2 most important, imo and many others, functions; looks and sound. It's a horrible exterior and the AM and maserati sound much better. But when this hits the street, it should dominate the high end sedan market.

The Panamera next to the 928 reminds me of a Checker. I wouldn't kick the 928 out of the garage for one, but it'd be a great replacement for the E-class.

Well, that has me convinced. Until I saw this side by side again, I thought the Pan had a nicer front end. Nope.
I notice interesting difference in front steering geometry.

I must admit. There isn't one Porsche I find unattractive. Sure, the Panamera may not be the best looking Porsche, but it's capabilities are astounding.
I honestly think that if the Panamera wasn't a 4 door, it would certainly look a lot sportier. However, this tends to be more of a family/business car, but still with amazing Porsche Power into it. This is something I could see popping up in new Mafia, and Organized Crime films.
