I appreciate your vids. I wish guys like you were more prevalent on TH-cam. Simple, to the point, real-world experience with the every-man’s version of an awesome car.
Lolll the corvette at the end! Thanks for the video, I test drove a used volkswagen Arteon last week, seriously considered it but now researching a 2012 panamera and found your channel, super helpful!
Nice car !! I watched your things you hate about the car video. We just bought a 2015 Panamera Turbo S with 32k miles. Everything you mentioned about the things you love are spot on with us and our car. These cars are the best 4 door sedan, period !!
I own a 2010 turbo the exact same exterior color just black interior. I previously owned a 2010 base. Absolutely two different vehicles. As you stated, in comfort mode it's really nice to drive. Sport mode, it becomes something else. Just a satisfying car to drive.
LEFT HAND KEY: Old time racers had to run to the car, hand on shift, pull out of gear to neutral, hand off shifter to ignition, start, hand back to gear shift. With LEFT hand key: Left hand on ignition, right hand on shifter... you save 2 seconds and get to the front of the pack!
Hey you can replace the windows control piece for $40. Purchased from Amazon. Mine had the chrome tips coming off and the driver window button going out. I love my car. I have the same year, black interior and silver. Beauty and the beast all in one. It is faster and more powerful than it list specs.
Hey Mike As I have previously written, I have almost the same identical car. 2010 Panamera S. However! I do not have the sport Chrono package and, thus, this sport Plus mode. Regardless, with just the sport setting, it turns into a different beast! On the video, I note that you definitely don't have a stock exhaust on this? If it's different, what kind and what ballpark price please? Oh! I saw your video on the hood struts, regarding the replacement. Mine sag the same way and I thought it was one of those things It might be a little bit difficult without another set of hands. Nope! Just ordered mine from Autohaus AZ, for 14 bucks a piece. Well worth it! Additionally, I didn't think of this before, but the cabin air filter needs to be changed. I looked that up and, sure enough, that was such a simple fix but I felt like an idiot after watching a video on how to change it. Safe driving! Thanks for your videos!
Have you looked into the glued coolant pipes for the V8? Common issue with cayennes which share the same engine. Maybe take a look at your parts to see if it's already been fixed in your car.
Not sure if the coolant pipes have been upgraded to the metal ones. They run under the upper intake manifold. Have to take apart a lot just to see them. The problem when they leak is it drips coolant onto the starter motor, which causes it to go bad. I don't smell any coolant burning and no pink stains. So far so good. Thanks for watching!
The maintenance it's self is not that expensive. It's the dealership labor charges that run up the cost. Can save a lot of money doing the work yourself or find a good independent shop that doesn't over charge. Thanks for watching!
Man, the more I inform myself and watch your videos as well about the Panamera, the more I can't wait to buy one for myself... Hell what a beauty ofa car and I also am able to transport my family. Well done and keep it up! 👍🤗

Thank you for these videos! I’m in the market for one myself and your videos continue to encourage me to make the purchase soon. 👍🏽
I have a 2012 turbo I agree with you

How much was it? I’m trying to decide which one I want.
@@bayouboy2921 Base (2012) was $28k with 70k miles. Turbo was $40k with 45k miles.
@@bayouboy2921 the base is ok. It has the look you want. But you at least want to get the S model.
@@halfmanhalfamazing191 thanks. You’ve helped me narrow my search down.
@@halfmanhalfamazing191 what the price of the s type?
Still such a great looking car.

Your Porsche sounds amazing 🤘🏻
I'm happy for you man!
Thanks for your support

Will do. Looking to add a go pro just for that reason. Thanks for watching!

Great videos! The area where you are shooting your videos looks like San Diego/Alpine/Cuyamaca?
You're right. Cuyamaca Mountain 🏔️. Thanks for watching!
handsome pup!
I have a silver 2011 panamera for sale...and the price is very good and the car is in really good condition
Nice ride. I'm 7 months into ownership on my first Porsche, a 15 Cayman S. Always loved that Panamera.
Hi Mike, What year is your Porsche.?
2010
Nice video. This is my dream car. But I heard the maintenance on these cars are expensive!

How is the consumption?
I get around 18mpg with mosty city driving
@@mikeshorsepowergarage7577 ok thanx
Try and give us real world mpg of the panamera
Nice review
I make a lot of short trips around town and average about 18 mpg. If I drive mostly freeway miles then I get about 22 mpg. Thanks for watching!

People hate on my Panamera all of the time. They say things like yeah but its not a 911. LOL!!!! F--k them! :)
Panamera is more roomy its built for a real man lol
Does the hound like it ? 😀
I'm sure she would but she hasn't ridden in it. Don't want her to mess up the interior. She gets to ride in the Cobra with it's cloth seats
What year is your panamera?
