    I just picked up my '15 GTS, and I absolutely love it! The exhaust sound is absolutely fabulous for the ears. This should be the ultimate driving machine vs. M6 and Mercedes E AMG.

    Awesome video after I test driven the GTS I was sold, I was waiting on the 2015 Z06 but the quality of this car is unmatched.

    Ross, great job! I drove one of these a few months ago. Just floored me on how effortlessly smooth it is. There are not many cars I'd consider giving up my Bimmer for, but this one is it.

    Thanks team. Great review. This video helped me in my decision to buy this car. I have to agree that this is an unbelievable car. You can really go to Home Depot, take your wife to anniversary dinner (even take your in-laws out for dinner), and absolutely haul ass on the way home whether you take the highway or the twisty back roads. Adjustable air suspension, throttle mapping, sports exhaust, rear spoiler, etc. And this car looks absolutely stunning in real life.

    Best most comprehensive reviewer. Definitely influences the purchasing process.

    I'm not a big expert of cars in terms of real life experiences because I've just turned 18 and I've only got my licence a few weeks ago. Anyway I love cars and I've been studying them for a long time (I think since I can read and we can count that anyhow that is a 7 year period) so I think it is a very solid fact that this car is beautiful. It's not perfect, I belive that but let me check those cars that has a naturally aspirated V8 with this glorious sound, AWD, this much of cargo space and a benchmark that Porsche has. Ohh nothing comes to my mind. It's not the fastest, not the bigggest or not the lightest car on the planet but it's got a bit of everything of these that makes it a very special complete.
    Thanks Ross for the comprehensive review, it was nicely cut and detailed!

    I fully agree with everything you said on this review ross,the Panamera is my favorite car for the last 2 years.Its a car for everything.

  • @Nickschneider12

    That car is awesome, not a fan on the GTS trim but the Panamera in general is Great! Thx Ross for such an awesome review

  • @blacuraRL
    @blacuraRL 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great review as always, Ross!
    The comparison to the Cooper S really makes me want to go out and drive this car.
    Once again, you nailed the 'driving feel' part, which is essential on any performance oriented ride

  • @thinking500

    Such a great review Ross, great work. So clear and direct.

  • @ziggyff693
    @ziggyff693 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    did I miss something? how are drive thru ATM's a no go with this car...also with this car's weight can a version of the TDI as used in the cayenne, be practical and retains some sportiness...love that it is AWD ...I'm a big skier and do a 400 mile drive on weekends

  • @Mojo522
    @Mojo522 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    After I finish with my studies and start work, I'm going to be buying myself one of these cars. It's a jack of all trades and looks good doing it.

    • @goons123flofy
      @goons123flofy 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Looks good? Check your prescription, rotfl.

    • @Mojo522
      @Mojo522 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +goons123flofy well I think it's a nice four-door Porsche, if you don't think so don't buy one

    • @goons123flofy
      @goons123flofy 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I am going to buy a 2016 Camaro instead. Don't get me wrong, it also has questionable looks.

  • @easyvivo
    @easyvivo 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Another practical car, plenty of cargo space for the gig equipments. It is also low profile and understated (matches humble personality).

  • @QuintessentialPicnic

    Great Review Ross. Always love listening to your insights

  • @TypeR1013
    @TypeR1013 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think this one is actually #1. The other 4 spots are up for grabs between the DC2 Integra Type-R, the Boss 302, 1 Series M, current M3, current M6.

  • @TypeR1013
    @TypeR1013 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    I hope so, although it could be a while since I just got the new M6 convertible and the review is up already. Go check it out! I loved that car too. Thanks for the kind words

  • @jimjones1992
    @jimjones1992 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Good job on the review Ross, your enthusiasm is so good that it often makes me like the cars you review, even if i previously hated it. But just out of interest Ross, what's your top 5 car ?

  • @nature10879
    @nature10879 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Mmm very good taste right there. I have always wanted the current V8 M3, I even actually tried to see if there is a way I could get the old 2005/6 M3 as well. Both of them 6 speed manual. The M6 material quality is super amazing especially the cabin and it's high quality seats.

  • @TypeR1013
    @TypeR1013 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    If you're going to get the V8 M3 (or the new M5/M6) you really should get the 7-speed DCT.
    The 6MT fits the 1M because of the insanely broad torque curve but for the other cars, the 7-speed really wakes them up.

  • @Partok81
    @Partok81 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love the off throttle snarl this car makes. High priced? True, but 4wd doesn't come cheap in a sporty car no matter who makes it; compared to a 2wd car. Even a given Subaru cost more than comparable cars. For it's weight/class I find this car amazing. Good review Ross!

  • @MuffinHatred
    @MuffinHatred 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    My uncle is looking to upgrade to this from his panamera 4. Even the 4 fits the description of how it looks awful on paper but works in the real world. To me, the 3.6 v6 in the 4 is quick enough.

  • @toh3211
    @toh3211 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    As an avid fan/owner of the Audi A7, I'm definitely looking to step up to either the Panamera GTS or Audi RS7 once it comes out. I would assume that price point wise both of those cars should be similar but great review as always

    • @f0gGenx
      @f0gGenx 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      John Vu yeah i know.. just saying the car would be more enjoyable on a road trip with windy roads. Might as well take a S class to vegas, but can't go wrong with either.

  • @SlowJoe76

    Nice review Ross. I understand what you mean by saying real world. Most of these reviews favor the specs on paper forgetting that what makes a great cars is the right amount of ingredients and not a Paper Tiger

    @smashbro5 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    I know you wouldn't "have" to. I guess the point I was trying to make was that I don't think I would want to put 2x4s in a car this nice haha. By the way, love your reviews, keep up the good work!

    I have been looking at a Cadillac CTS-V because I "felt guilty" about buying a foreign car. But after seeing thing video I am going to buy me the car that I have always wanted...a PORSCHE. I live in the DC.MD.VA area...any suggestions on where I can get a "fair deal"?

  • @TheWiseOldChinaman
    @TheWiseOldChinaman 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Panamera handles like a Mini Cooper even though it is is 5" longer than the Cayenne? How can that be possible? Speaking of Cayenne, will you be doing a review on the 2013 Cayenne soon? Most of the existing Cayenne reviews on TH-cam are on the GTS and the DIesel models for sale purpose but no one has done an objective informative review on the base model, yet.

  • @johnnyk.3039
    @johnnyk.3039 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    If you want the Swiss Army Knife of Sports Sedans (which is what most reviewers have called the Panamera), sign up. You WILL NOT be disappointed. I concur with most that this Saloon is not the best looking of the bunch and I also agree with this reviewer, that it makes up for its flaws in dividends... I just wish it had just enough power to beat the M5 in this price point.

  • @mrmaturitydelinquent
    @mrmaturitydelinquent 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    That's the car of my dreams, besides the Cayenne, due to them being the only Porsches that can fit a driver over 6 feet tall (I'm about 6'5). I'm wondering is Roadfly paying you enough to have a Panamera in your own name? My job sure as hell doesn't, I'm stuck with my 2004 Dodge Durango! But besides all that, I bet you had a real rush!

    I reckon you do the best reviews by far Ross. My only criticism (and it's a small one) is that I'd like to see just a little more of the tech functions of the car. What do all the switches and dials do man? From an appreciative Aussie. Keep up the great work.

  • @TypeR1013
    @TypeR1013 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yes, but you wouldn't have to. It's one of the only cars I've ever driven that is essentially perfect...you could literally own one as your only car if you wanted to, even if you lived in a place that occasionally got snowy weather.

    And how tall are you little guy? (inb4 6'3) Did you take offense to anything in particular? In case you haven't noticed, every comment on this video is about the very poor presentation of an otherwise awesome car. Their own amateur ways and lack of attention to detail will be their downfall. Media outlets really need to hold on to some semblance of professionalism, whilst on "the job."
