Friend bought a Panamera 4S
Not too sure how I feel about the looks, but the quality of the interior was really nice. Performance was impressive, really nice to drive and FAST. Couldn't imagine how the turbo must be.

I'm baffled by some sentiments floating out there that the Panamera is an ugly car...Jeremy Clarkson on Top Gear certainly thinks so. I think they're beautiful and clearly possess the classic Porsche styling. The Boxster, on the other hand....

When we had one in the office for a few weeks it only received positive comments from the public. It's only "car enthusiasts" and porsche-files that seem to have a problem with it. Ours was a Yachting Blue Turbo with the RS Spyder wheels and I thought it looked fantastic. Wickedly fast too.

The Panamera is a great car and perfect for the target customer.

I love it when Clarkson has a competition between his favored car on the show and a Porsche - either the track times end up on fire - or like with the Panamera - Maserati - I forgot the other - four door luxury car contest around the industrial park - you don't get to the see the Panamera even finish because you know it destroyed the others.
Can't say that I would buy one (not that I have the money) but I have driven one and it is a very impressive car. I think it was the missing tinge of burnt oil that turned me off in the end though =-)

I've noticed that side of him but jeez he's so funny...he carries that show. I can't even watch the American version...

Sorry, but as Conchatta Ferrell found a husband, so too will Panameras find allure to owners.
IMHO it is the mole rat of Porsche's design legacy. IMHO.
Contestable? Name a less attractive (er... non-tractor) Porsche.

I've found if you squint your eyes enough you probably couldn't tell the difference between the Panamera and the new Honda Crosstour. I still like the Panamera though.
