Default Finally saw one

.. and sat in it (new Panamera). I always liked the old one, but the new one is just stunning! Looks smaller, kind of like size of BMW 5 or Mercedes E class, but with a Porsche look & elegance. Inside is very different, indeed - went from really a lot of buttons to NO buttons. Very pretty, just worried that one will spend too much time looking at the instrument screens instead of doing it blind/by touch. Fab car, can't wait to drive it

Thanks. I've ordered one, and the way it looks right now, the first chance I am going to have to see one in the metal is when I go to pick it up. Nerve wracking!

It's a wonderful car. Saw one in person, sat in it, even turned it on for a brief moment at a Porsche event in Monterey. The interior is amazing - elegant and sophisticated. The exterior is an improvement over the original design and overall the entire concept works well. Updated and familiar at the same time.

Congratulations
