    You can get Executive with either GTS or turbo. The CLS and 7-series are much smaller inside than Panamera, and quite a bit cheaper too. Dont think many people cross shop those.

    Saw this years ago and watched it again today and it is a great review. I have had a Porsche Panamera Turbo from 2014 for 3 years and it is a fantastic car. Drives like a super sports car, but enable me to have the family with me in the car. As a real Porsche should do, it drives amazing in curves and corners.

    I'd happily buy this car over an audi rs7 or a cls 63 amg or a bmw m6 grand coupe. Those cars will depreciate so quickly if you owned any of those cars for about 3 years then you will sell them for half the price whereas the porsche is more expensive but it holds its value for longer and you won't lose that much money when you come to sell it on.

    • @IsCaRzY1
      @IsCaRzY1 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      True I absolutely love this car never driven one but hopefully one day I will own one used when they come down in value, used here in England they still run you 35K with 100+K miles on! And even more the less miles you go and that's for the basic car.

      @SoullessPolack ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@lightbox8019 im not sure on the percentage rate of depreciation over 8 years, but our panamera turbo from 2014 was 156k, bought it earlier this year with 40k miles for 67k. For my sake, I'm glad it depreciated that much. What a car for less than 70k. Yeah, it ain't new and some of the tech is a little old. But, if you frame it in your mind as it HAD been new with the latest tech at one point, it's a smoking deal.

The man races at the Nurburgring. But he also lives in a different part of the world where the rules and the landscape are much different than where I live in Los Angeles.

    people, the panamera and cayenne aint gonna go away. This is how porsche makes money, some rich women wanna have a big fucking car when they go to their local farmers market and buy their ultra-natural-organic foods..... but it gives porsche money to build more cars....

    A porsche engineer told me that the oil issue has everything to do with how the car is broken in. Most owners will properly break their cars in, the seals will set properly, and it will be fine. Some press cars get the shit kicked out of them the second they roll off the line, so they dont set right and will burn some oil. Makes sense, actually.

    I win the lottery, I'm buying a Panamera. I think they would be great for long distance road trips. Comfortable, quiet, fast as you dare and probably easy to drive and cruise in.
    For those of you that don't like it's looks, it's a 4 door sedan that holds four people and made for long drives or cruising. You can put your family and your dog in it and take a long drive with your luggage. You can also drive it to and from the grocery store and just throw your groceries, imported beer and fine quality wines in the back and go home with a big smile on your face.
    It's not a sports car, but a sporty and practical 4 person sedan that can go like crazy if you want to. You can probably cruise at 100 + MPH all day long in this car. It's not supposed to be a 911 or a 918. It's still a Porsche and one of the best engineered and highest quality cars on the market.

      +garyhope2 the Panamera is a poor family hauler since it lacks a bench seat in the back. Cayenne makes sense because Porsche was tired of Porsche owners buying a 911 and then having to buy a Chevy or Ford to tow their 911 to the track or daily drive they Che-ord and 911 saw once a month duty. Cayenne makes sense, 5 passenger, AWD, giant trunk (for a Porsche), 7,700 lbs towing, it fills all niches. Now you can daily drive your Porsche and have another Porsche for weekends. Very smart Porsche. Panamera doesn't make sense. There is no niche. So what is this for? A family hauler that doesn't hauls a full family? And the Macan makes even less sense. Porsche should have stopped at the Cayenne.

      PorscheSweden See, that comment just showed me that ur probably poor and recive wellfair... Or you are a 12 year old kid.. Can't decide between these two options :)
      And to be honest neighter in Sweden nor in any other country is 300k $ for a car cheap... You cannot say that this affects everyone but almost 90% of the worlds population will never be abel to own such a car... Just saying.
      And yes Americans do belive that their gas is expensive, but that is something completely different than the car price.. Car prices normaly saty about the same. But the gas prices in the US have increased a lot. So for example, 15 years ago, you got 1 gallon for like 50 cents. now 15 years later it kosts like 3.50$. That might not seem alot for Europeans, i know that since im from germany. But that is like a 3 dollar increase...
      We in germany also get "more" expensive gas now but hours only increased by like 90 cents ish. You know it is not always the pure amount of money that counts... It always depens on how much you could get for that money a couple of years ago. I'm not bitching or so but your reasoning is pretty dumb. Ik that your/our gas prices are way more expensive than the ones in the US but you need to understand that minimum wage and the average income in the US is way lower than ours.
      Just keep that in mind when talking about stuff like this :)

Although we have quite a few of the Panamera Hybrids among other luxury hybrids that are charged less than half that tax.

  • @charlesearle8414

    Some have compared the Panamera to the 928. They both have a V8, both are terrifyingly fast for their respective eras, both have a somewhat ugly rear end, and both are complete luxury cars. I think it does work as a Porsche, and I hope that one day they'll make a smaller Panamera Turbo coupé and call it the "928 Panamera" kind of like the "718 Cayman/Boxster". Porsche makes fantastic sports cars, and fantastic SUVs, and fantastic Saloons, they need to get back into the GT car business; make something to compete against the Aston Martin DB9, the Ferrari FF, the Maserati Gran Tourismo. They'd blow them all out of the water with a 2-door Panamera with the engine from the Normal Panamera Turbo.

    This car is an engineering triumph. It probably has the most thoroughly sorted chassis of any sedan available today. It's just a shame that it looks like a deformed prehistoric insect. It's odd hunchback profile is ungainly from 75% of the car's angles. Hopefully Porsche will get it right next time.

      Unfortunately, styling is subjective and in the eye of the beholder. I believe it is an amazing looking car.

    • @ThomasFerrugia
      @ThomasFerrugia 10 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Joshua Kebschull To a certain extent, that's true. Styling is subjective and there may be design elements that lead people with different aesthetic tastes to draw opposing conclusions. However, in this case, you either know little about automotive styling, or are a Porsche apologist. Like the Pontiac Aztek, this car is so badly proportioned that its design crosses the line from controversial to just plain tacky. Recall that the Panamera's original silhouette had a tapered roofline, however it was changed late in the development process due to a directive from the VW president (who stands 6'4"). The car was never supposed to look the way it does - a mess of unresolved elements, inelegant roof-line, and a big hunched-back hatch unceremoniously tacked to the rear. This car is a design flop. If it weren't for people who imagine ANYTHING from Porsche is somehow, by magic, perfect and just want to be seen driving the brand, no one would have bought this terd on wheels.

      Thomas, I am no expert on automotive styling, but my eye for appreciation on the subject matter doesn't lack either. Also I am no "Porsche apologist" as you want to personally coin people. I am not sure how brought in talk of proportion with the Aztek is beyond me.
      For some reason what you are saying mirrors that of what many other journalist elitism has to say....is it your opinion or are you taking what others say, dunno.
      What I do know, I see many Panameras, and I like the way it looks, the interior and the tech. Its an engineering piece of work, and if you don't like it, you're entitled to it.

    Holy shit I never realized how much room their was in the back of these things. I used to hate on them when they first came out because of the whole "four door Porsche" thing but they've grown on me...the combination of luxury and practicality of seating 4 comfortably and the sheer performance is astonishing...

    the "Turbo S" models usually come out a year later than the Turbos (except with the new 991, i guess they are doing those at the same time)

  • @TheSmokingTire
    @TheSmokingTire  10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The oil consumption issue has everything to do with the break in process, and is unique to press cars, which have the shit kicked out of them right out the factory door.

    I really enjoy your channel and your work.
    TheSmokingTire This or the 911 C4S for daily driving? I figure you can get them for about the same price used. New is not an option for me until later on in my 30's and 40's.
    RIght now I have a COBB tuned '13 WRX STI sedan (400+bhp) with redone/upholstered interior (because it was crap quality). It is set up more for handling and better feel than raw power. I am keeping that forever as of now, but gives you an idea of what I like. Two awesome daily drivers is better to me than a crap winter beater and a supercar. lol
    Cheers! Looking forward to more episodes.

    Matt Farah at it again with an awesome review! Thanks Matt! Brutally honest and to the point. No wonder why Porsche hunted you down to test the Panamera! BTW, Been sticking up for ya in the Forum world over the Vette reviews.... not sure why people are hating, and I know you could care less just thought I'd share. Keep up the great work guys!

    I have never been able to make a VW/Audi box's launch control work twice in a row. I'll launch the car once, and then do it again for the outside shot and it won't work. Same procedure, everything. PDK launches perfectly every single time.

  • @TheSmokingTire
    @TheSmokingTire  10 ปีที่แล้ว

    There are quite a few cars out there, of which the Cayenne and Panamera are both members of the club, where you think the car is ugly right up until you drive it, and then it's so good you no longer care. But saying "everyone" thought it was ugly would imply that its so ugly it wasn't selling, which isn't the case.

    Great review man! Your the type of person I like listening too because you say what's on your mind. Youre reviewing it like a ''normal'' person that would do everything to get the max out of a car, but don't spend like all my money on. For example the brakes. You don't need the carbon brakes, just like you said. And yeah, the review was just top notch. Keep it up man!

    Matt I love your videos man, very cool. The new Panamera Turbo is truly a great car. Not the prettiest car in the drawer, but definitely a well executed all-around driver with room for 4 adults. Well done! BTW, do you still drive your C5?

  • @TheSmokingTire
    @TheSmokingTire  10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ignore the price tag on the Volt. No one buys them, everyone leases. And with the gov't incentives and cash back, I leased my volt for $320/month/36/12k and no money down. The MSRP makes it look too expensive, but the lease is so good the overall cost to daily drive it is stupidly cheap. I never stress about running out of juice because the engine is there, and in 1,800 miles I've literally filled it up with gas once. Averaging 102 MPG.

  • @user-wf9hy6cs5r
    @user-wf9hy6cs5r 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Good review. One thing you didn't bring up, though, is that it is more a hatchback/wagon than a standard sedan. With the back seats down, it could hold as much stuff as certain suv's. A nice alternative to an E-class or Volvo wagon.
