More Porsche Panamera
Monday, August 17, 2009
Way back when the web was at version 2.0.1.2 (January '09 for the rest of us) I took a look, or was that a swipe, at the Porsche Panamera.
I don't think my views on this have altered much. If you buy a Panamera, the stats say this isn't your only car. The typical 911 owner has 3 cars, if I recall my stats correctly, and this is part of Porsche's ploy to get more wallet share from each customer.
But if you are going to buy 3 cars, wouldn't you want them to be the best-in-class at the task you intend for them?
This was my point when I looked at a Panamera competitor, the Aston Martin Rapide
Interestingly, all the reviews seem to indicate that despite the terrible looks, the car drives like a Porsche. Checkout the reviews from Drive.com.au and AutoExpress.
Also worth checking out are these videos:
Top Gear's Panamera vs the postman (which will likely get yanked as it isn't BBC official material)
Drive.com.au's test drive
