The Panamera is really growing on me. There was one at our spring tour drive to Steamboat Springs last weekend. It was really nice. FWIW - there were no Cayennes present.

I NEVER see women driving a Pan, so the answer MUST be no!

Let's get past the styling issue. I know it's personal taste, but I like the Panamera and would have no trouble owning one. Do you need the size and off road capability of an SUV? Do you need to haul stuff? Where would your dog throw up in a Panamera? If those are not issues, you're half way there. More money, obviously, but probably not a problem for you and Mr. EW. Life's short, get what you want. No shame in owning a Panamera, AFAIC.

I don't like how the Panamera is five inches longer than the Cayenne and hard to see out the back. The reasons I would not consider buying an SUV before I learned about the Cayenne is I did not want a car with sloppy steering and handling and I did not want a car that would be a lot more difficult to maneuver and park in the crowded area I live in. The Cayenne has terrific steering and handling, especially with the performance options and larger wheels, so no problem there. As for parking, it has the rear camera and backup warning system and is only four inches longer than my current car. I'd still have the drawbacks of a larger car with the Cayenne, but at least I would have the cargo space and the off-road capability. The Panamera just doesn't give me enough of what I want to justify buying it when it is longer than the Cayenne and as wide as the Cayenne.

Since I will have to wait for Lewis to come back (just for one day/mission) so that he can vote on banning Pops. (We need 3 mods but I have already found the third. )

Please note that zombies are blind, so it is true looking at the Panamera won't kill them, now for the rest of the healthy population,sadly, this not the case.

Give me 10 minutes I am trying to paypal 10 dollars to the third mod and it's a go.

Bob can't possibly save Pops as he is busy this afternoon and for the next of the day as I will keep reporting posts.
