Turbo Pan summary thus far...
going to dispel with the usual over worded reviews. Those that have one will agree with this simple analogy:
Think Clark Kent entering a phone booth while car is in normal, non-sport mode. Press sport plus mode and then think superman emerging from the phone booth wearing a Porsche racing logo cape. It is unbelievable that a car this big can move so fast and still be a Porsche at the same time. Absolutely incredible.

I "only" have the normally aspirated 4S but I share you impression. This car has at least two,if not three very distinct personnae, a thoroughly competent luxury sedan in Comfort mode, a very fast and agile sedan in Sport, and a true raging sports car in Sport Plus. There has never been anything like it before, it's a new paradigm.

This is good video of a test Pana S/4S/Turbo in the rain. 4S does best as it is the happy median of the three! S can't get the power down in the wet with 2wd. Turbo has so much power that even the 4wd can only help so much.

cool video! I have to say that the Pan turbo is calling me. I am going to wait until year end, so hopefully, there will be some deals because I am going to trade my 997.2 S cab with PDK for it. Will I miss the drop top? probably not or the car itself? I don't think I'll lose the farm on the 09 trade, especially with some help with a discount! What do you guys think?
