These are the latest shots of the all-new Porsche Panamera:

What do you all think? I like it overall, but hate that ugly rear wing!

I'm probably going to be in a minority...but I don't particularly care for it.

I'll bet my paycheck that the rear wing is just for the testing mule...it probably didn't make any sense to develop an electric wing for the mule when they only really care about how it works while in the "up" position, so they stuck the goofy-looking fixed unit on the back.

Those were posted some time back. Still not very good shots to be able to make out a production look. It's still a ways out until the showroom so time to sit back and wait this one out.

It looks like a short Cayenne to me.

I'm really not a sedan kinda guy, but if you need 4-doors it may as well be a p-car. I'll bet the finished product will be sweet.

FIneally, a decent looking set of 10-spoke OEM wheels.

The four door is too "humpy" in the back...but the 928 replacement is coming to my garage

say what you want but the M5 will lose some sales when that thing hits. you know it will fly, and it has to have even more sport than the M5, so expect performance to be most important, followed closely function

Exactly, there are many loyal Pcar enthusiasts who want a super sedan,
but coz' Porsche doesn't have one available, they go for options like BMW or AMG.

I think that looks more like an extended Carrera than a short Cayenne.

I dont like it....but only time will tell. Maybe I will change my mind once I see the final version. But...a Porsche Sedan just doesnt seem right to me.

Without the tail it looks lame. I like the picture of the black one above, but definitely need to see more pictures.
