Talking ‘14 Panamera GTS

Hi All!

Just joined, and have been reading all the post glad to hear everyone is happy with their Panameras. That has made the descion quite easy! Not that I needed to be pushed.

Story (you can skip if you want to) I was going to replace my daily with an SUV for stuff and keep my Camaro (14 SS RS 6MT) and kept looking at 911’s dreaming again when the silly thought came to me and said you know... Instead of an SUV you could get a Panamera.... Well you know that sounds like a great idea! So i’m Trading the Camaro for the Panamera GTS.

If all goes well it will be: CPO GTS Dark Blue Met and Full leather interior in (What i think is) Luxor Beige - PDCC, PASM, and Porsche Torque Vectoring (not sure what that is yet), Sport Chrono, Exhaust, 4 zone Climate, Heated and ventilated front and back.

Going this week to look / test drive already talked price with the dealer for my car and theirs.

As you are more familar with Porsche than I am and well this may be silly, but I know about the PPI, however I shouldn’t need to do this as its at a Porsche Dealer, and its CPO correct? I assume that has been done already but any hints you can give me on what to ask for aside from Maintenance records that would be great!

most people will accept a CPO car without an independent inspection, as many items will be covered, but you should still look the car over very well before purchasing. the dealer will likely tell you they have done the 'inspection', but I would only accept that if the car was CPO. you simply want to make sure you have done your due diligence.

Thank you! I like it as well! However it my short time of owning it I can see its going to require some extra care as the blue dye from jeans does “rub off” on it but it cleans up easy with a leather cleaner.
