Hilarious coming from a b'mer groupie.same ol' same ol'
Porsche, for the longest time, has made cars that are absolute stunning performers, the previous generation Panamera included. However, today marks the official unveiling of the2017 Porsche Panamera, and the performance specs are simply mind boggling.
The 4S that will be the starter performance model, priced at just under $100k, features a relatively miniscule yet rev-happy 2.9 liter V6, with the very welcome addition of two small but potent, mid-mounted turbochargers, producing 440 horsepower and 405 ft-lbs of torque - the curve of which is pancake flat and stretches from 2000 to 4500 rpm. It also features an eight-speed version of Porsche’s stellar PDK transmission, which is perhaps the best flappy paddle gearbox the world has ever seen.
That combination of turbo whistle and combustion energy will propel the all-wheel-drive, 4123 lb. Panamera from zero to 60 miles per hour between 4.2 and 4.0 seconds, depending on if you left the Sport Chrono package box checked on your order sheet or not. That is nearly supercar quick by any measure, but it doesn’t stop there.
You see, Porsche is the manufacturer that has made a name for itself in badge recognition, because unlike your uncle’s Buick Regal GS, the trim spec in a Porsche actually means that significant changes were made to the car to provide a sufficiently different experience, and the Panamera doesn’t stray from that plan in the slightest.
Porsche’s top-spec Panamera is the Turbo S, and here are the figures: 4.0 liter twin-turbocharged V8. 550 horsepower, 567 ft-lbs of torque, on a flat-ass curve between 2000 and 4500. Eight-speed PDK transmission. Revised suspension that allows every component of the car to talk to every other component, for maximum grip. Direct injection. Rear steering.
This symphony of engineering and luxury culminates in the 4400 lb. Panamera Turbo achieving a published 0-60 time of 3.4 seconds, which, for those of you paying attention, is just as fast as a freaking Ferrari FF.However, as Porsche is apt to do, their numbers always tend to skew towards the conservative, and I’d be willing to bet that with launch control engaged and the benevolent gods of adhesion looking down upon you favorably, you could get the Panamera Turbo S off the line quite a bit faster than the manufacturer’s published time.
might get one
You gonna trade in your house?
So now u gotta help me bro
..no way in hell I can purchase a g wagon after seeing that review..so what should I get? Don't like bmws or Japanese cars..i didn't won't to get new S but i just might...
how much money do you need to make to afford a car close to $100,000?? I'm guessing if you aren't making over 200k you shouldn't be thinking about it. Nother question why would I pay anyone that type of money for a damn bucket of metal and screws?
It looks great. The "leaked" test mule spy shots that have been circulating out there over the last several months, hinted at the changes, but they have surpassed my expectations.
I love subtle reworking of the front end, and substantial massaging of the rear quarters, to include the new signature 3-d signature taillights and light-bar. That rear-3/4 profile looks REALLY good. It no longer has that bulbous whale-like look to it.
Interior is clean as well. They had to get rid of some of those buttons.

See .30' mark of this video.
It appears that you want a sporty SUV. Have you considered the Cayenne Turbo?
Honestly, I would just do a CPO 2014 S class. It does not get any better than that. Don't get an AMG, those things are not for everyday driving. Trust me , I learned my lesson from the M5.
Exactly. I know people who drive $90k cars with an income of $700k. That's like making $70k and driving a $9000 car.
A 1/7 ratio for both. Well done...or else I would have eaten you alive.
