There's a good reason why the Pana, in reviews, stands out as the preferred enthusiast's big body sedan out there because it drives the best. Everything else feels disconnected including the M5 and the M5 is a mid-sized car.
I absolutely adore the Techart Panamera like the Cayenne above. Sure, it's a lot of money on top of the car, but given how much this crowd spends in expendables like tires and gas like it's going out of style, probably chump change 4 most.

I agree a good aerokit can improve the looks ... and I am sure its an amazing drive, as I recall TG-UK were pretty impressed with the handling despite their concerns about the looks!
I think the pano factory TT aerokit makes it look a lot better, and if the Boxster facelift is anything to go by Porsche have got some good guys in the design dept ... so we have something to look forward to

Yes, I completely agree. This is Porsche's first go at the Panamera. The next gen is going to be so much better in the looks dept. Just look at the first gen Cayenne. Ugh. Can't believe how much people spent on that thing!

That's nice.. but very plain and too subtle.
I want mine with blue crock interior and yellow snake covered subwoofers.

I actually really like the styling. A true 4-door supercar look on the road.

They've done worse..
The idea that “any publicity is good publicity” has its merits, but even if we assume that these monstrosities were created as a calculated risk to cause a fuss, MANSORY's misinterpretation of tuning is scary by itself.
In another time and place, they would have been prosecuted for crimes against humanity. Together with Porsche's CEO that saw the Panam's drawings and said "What a splendid design! Let's make it."

And I completely am with you guys that the color combo can only be appreciated by the Swedish national soccer team, but let's state the obvious - you order as you wish.
