Default Panamera Turbo For High Miles Driver

Hello -

I went to the dealership today and test drove a 2018 Panamera Turbo. Loved it in all ways. My upcoming commute daily will be roughly 120 miles round trip. I figure if I do this drive 48 weeks a year, I'm looking at about 30,000 miles a year just to and from work. I think the car fits well for long drives but does anyone have any opinions about putting that many miles a year on the vehicle? Will resale be absolutely horrible after, say 3-4 years?

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks.

Yes the resale will get hurt considerably but think of the pleasure you will have for those 3 or 4 years versus one that sits in the garage most of the time.

I put 120K miles on my 2010 P4S when I traded it in 5 years later for 32K. The car held up well. It needed one AC repair for stone damage and a few sets of tires. Resale values are all over the internet so you've got a good idea of what mileage is worth down the line. If that's a major concern, pick up a used turbo and you'll dodge the initial depreciation hit.
