I always thought the Panamera looked a lot like an SUV. Guess I was right!

Seriously? That would be a pretty slick tow vehicle.

That is what I thought. I towed with my Touareg for a few years, no problem with an open trailer.

Damn, sell my Touareg and get a Pana diesel

Going completely off topic saw the new X5 and the engines available in Europe, 3 different Diesel engines.... and we don't get sh*t here.

Looking at the license plates I'd say it's Kimi in Finland http://www.worldlicenseplates.com/world/EU_FINL.html

So is this a realistic tow vehicle? If it can tow 7700lbs like the Cayenne, it should be able to tow a Trailex enclosed ~ 4500-5000 lbs. What are the negatives? I would consider this over my Cayenne. Wheel base is probably similar.

Edmonds says a 2012 can tow 4850lbs. I looked quickly at porsches site, but didnt find any towing info.

Kimi drives a turbo diesel VW bus.

I'm not kidding.

.... No, I'm really not kidding, it's true.
