Default Porsche Panamera Turbo "vs" Porsche 928 - Prueba / Test / Review Coches.net (2014)

I don't know a word they are saying but I enjoy it very much, hope you enjoy it the same way too.

Thanks for sharing. Love it.

Now for the subtitled version... I only got about 20% with my abilities to translate a conversational speed.

They say...

The new Panamera Turbo is a GT car that drives good, with lots of power and four wheel drive but is ugly. By comparison the 928, Porsche's other 8 cylinder looks much better, drives well, is smaller and is cheaper.

Lastly the Panamera has cup holders.

Default 928 vs Panamera Turbo review

I can't understand what they are saying, but I noticed the guy with the black jacket was excited behind the wheel of the 928, saying "bueno" while driving the 928 AFTER driving the Panamera.


Great location for a review.

The Panamera is a great car, no doubt...... but I just cannot get over the size, weight, and *** end.

Don't get me wrong, when this mass produced sedan tanks in depreciation to the level of an average Boxster, I'll be tempted to snag one up.

Think I'm nuts? 10 year old Cayennes are already in the $10 grand range.

I'm with you Hacker - twin turbo Cayenne's beginning to look buyable.

Wow, I really haven't been watching sine I thought it would be a few years at least.

I've been looking at 2003+ BMW 6-series for Lorelei, if they are dropping that much already I might have to reconsider.

You sure it wasn't heavily damaged in some way?? Cheapest one on Autotrader is $45k.

Both the Cayenne and Panamera are silly cars.....not much Porsche, imo.

I'd get a Tesla S before Panamera...and least it compensates you (in gas money) while it depreciates.

True, but it costs more in unevenly worn tires and grief over electronic trouble than ANY car costs in gas, though

Stick to old Porsches and MB's and be happy!
