Almost here....
...ok few weeks away but still. Update from the OPC on 24th May to say the car had gone into production.
Assume it must be built by now if the OPC had received that email? Scheduled to be with them on 23rd June I think.
Starting to get excited about the new arrival and add to the UK based members taking delivery.

I'll post more pics when its looking its best after the detail. just noticed they've released the "boot liner" for the Panamera now. might have to get that ordered along with a couple of the seat protectors before i put the kids car seats in the back.

Seems perfectly good to me! :-)
The 4SD is a beast, but the 3.0 V6 petrol engine is more than adequate. Quite relaxed in normal/economy mode, but comes to life in Sport/Sport Plus.
330hp seems plenty, even in a large four seat sports saloon! Still very easy to go a bit too quickly! ;-)
My girls are now 21 and 16, so don't tend to make too much mess these days! :-)

P.S. Can't decide whether to keep the standard exhaust pipes, or have the sports tail pipes retro-fitted...

Looks great! Volcano Grey? Trying to see what the blue car is next to yours. Aston, or a Ferrari maybe?
