Appreciate it! I think now we are in good hands and should be done properly. Plus the warranty on the 0 mile engine is nice ha-ha

Hard part is going to be taking it easy and breaking it in correctly

ACCURATE! The tech was already tempting me like hey we're in here we should do bigger turbos and downpipes. I was like after the warranty we'll talk!

had the car on track over the weekend. With better tires and brake pads it'd be hanging with most of the fastest cars there. But the reality of it being a 4500 lb car was too much for my poor pads and I had to ease into the heavy braking zones more than I like to. I'm looking forward to taking my 2800 lb E36 M3 out next time, but this car was a blast. Rotating the car through corners was something I didn't really expect.. that was fun.

got some good photos from my track time last Saturday. It's not common to see Panamera photos with the spoiler in the second stage.. love seeing that angle.

The Olympic Peninsula is a beautiful area with great driving roads. We visited in August.

After 35 000 km of daily driving my (used) little Panny (300 hp gasoline V6 3.6l), it reached the 100 000 km milestone today (that'd be 62 137 miles for my non-metric friends) :
