I agree mate, it looks very nice and comfortable as a long distance cruiser. Not sure I'd drop 150k on one but definitely nicer to look at the than the older one.
Lion Eyes Because I love roadtripping with my friends, and the Panamera is like the ultimate cruiser and would make the whole experience 1000 times better than my current car. Not to say its like my dream or lifegoal, but something I dont think will happen as i'm in the military with a shitty paycheck. Therefore "Dream"
broke123 Exaclty! I wouldnt to it either, but like a one-time megacruise like Tim does. Just with 3 friends cruising across countries would be fucking epic
I always loved the rational behind the car and the numbers but the looks always held it back. I think this one looks beautiful though. Would definitely be a must buy if I could afford it.
Andreas Breslawski I don't think it's faster than an RS7, the RS7 is a seriously quick car. I'm with you on it being sportier though, and less practical (not that it's a particularly impractical car).
I just went back to look at your FF driving through France and it is 2 levels above the understated Panamera.Ferraris are just so sexy!That interior and the sound.Wow!
Tim, this was really a great video. It was very helpful to see how you change the "chip settings" to race, normal and stock. Very interesting and you video nailed it. Nicely done. (Mike in Ohio)
Porches awd turbo diesel is a dream sedan or long holiday cruiser. 4wd make great all weather and porche got the interior perfect. With race chip add up to 1000 lb of torq is crazy
Tim, I agree on your comment about the ACC. My Audi S3 8V has it as well and I never use it, while I normally love to use cruise control on long drives. Especially in traffic it leaves huge gaps, so other people will always jump in front of you + when I'm approaching a truck on a motorway, it starts decreasing the speed like 300m in advance (like you mentioned). Somehow this system can not be deactivated manually and therefor I would never ever choose this option on my future car.
I just got her! Unbelievable machine! Pulls like an elephant and in the same time burns 10-12 l/100 km. I think she has more than 421 hp? I had Audi A8 4.2 TDI 385 hp for 3 years and it's nothing like it.
Just a tip. There is a channel called NSC. Stands for no copyright sound. They share tons of tunes which you can play without having any issues with copyright. If you'd like to play some tunes. Nice review, keep up the good work. Greetings from Sweden
TDI VAG:s with a tank of over 50 litres have been capable of over 1k km since at least late 90´s. Did once bravely 1030km with my -98 tdi A3 to discover the next fill up was like 52ltr of the 55ltr capasity. Of course those
That distance for the adaptive cruise control can probably be adjusted. It can in my Mercedes. It's on the cruise-control stalk, there's a dial where I get to choose the gap distance.
I feel your pain shmee. I hate all the rain when I'm driving up to the Swiss Alps to my daddy's cabin too. but generally my chauffeur is driving so the adaptive cruise control doesn't bother me.
Glad the nürburgring is having resurfacing work done or else you could go and beat my diesel car TH-cam lap record of 8:21.. Search BMW 335D xdrive 8:21 if you are interested Tim..
I would sooner have the controller hardwired in. Maybe even replacing the stock switches. I understand that would been more modification and expense, however that would be my preference
Okay first thanks for the answer. And you're right after thinking about it, it is logical. But if you could compare it to any other car you tested what would you say?
Maybe in the future can drive up a ski resort in the FF with Jon Olsson once he gets his Wraith (odd choice considering the supercars he's had lately) and do some skiing.
Funny how no one mentions the fuel tank capacity of the car.They just see the power and the distance. It's a big difference between a 90 liters fuel tank like this car has and let's say a 70 l tank.Regardless,it's good for it's specifications.
This might have the optional 100 litre fuel tank which is almost double the size of standard BMW 3 series / Merc C Class tanks and should easily give a 1000km cruising range.
Having to stop, pull out a phone, and make a change to performance settings seems bothersome. Surely the RaceChip engineers could have integrated something on the dashboard for on-the-fly changes. Also the fuel tank is 75L in the Diesel so the economy displayed here is great for a 420hp car.
Your getting close to 1 million subscribers. You going to have a celebration of some sort when you hit it? That; and visiting family, would be worth flying back to my homeland for.
Daammn, driving 1k kilometers straight in a Panamera gotta be one of my dreams
Speng why?
my dream is to get a decent working car vacuum cleaner got any suggestions?

I think the V8 Diesel sounds very nice, to be honest.
Diesel V8s sound better at low RPM
Cactaceae33 it doesn't sound bad but I'm not sure if it has a sound generator..
It has a sound generator. That's all fake sound. Nothing coming from the engine here. Just like the Audi sq5
sound generators are one of the more stupid "innovations" in the last few years
Outside it'll be rattling and clattering like any other CRD.
I just love the Panameras centre tunnel both in G1 and G2
Makes you feel like a jet pilot
You should get a Porsche Panamera Turbo S with the Race Chip to replace your FF!
cerebellum lease it.
IUHOOSIERIU don't think that's his style
he's FF is financed..
Please NEVER do that schmee
controlgames what would be your replacement for the FF? I think the Mercedes S65 AMG Sedan would be a worthy replacement as well.
I always loved the rational behind the car and the numbers but the looks always held it back. I think this one looks beautiful though. Would definitely be a must buy if I could afford it.
Andreas Breslawski I don't think it's faster than an RS7, the RS7 is a seriously quick car. I'm with you on it being sportier though, and less practical (not that it's a particularly impractical car).
I really love all the lights inside when evening kicked in!! Love the Panamera!!!
I just went back to look at your FF driving through France and it is 2 levels above the understated Panamera.Ferraris are just so sexy!That interior and the sound.Wow!
Nic Nac panamera is much much better than ff. U are blindLoL.
Thank you.Can you help me cross the road?
I love diesel torque!
Ok.
It's amazing there so underrated
Get a used s63 AMG as the FF replacement just a thought
You don't mean an e63 estate?
you don't mean an S65 Msport Quattro?
You don't mean an S65 AMG Quadrifoglio?
You don't mean an S69 Maybach STi
And it looks absolut stunning in reality :-)
panamera could replace bmw 7series...
Theses diesels seem to be coming on in leaps and bounds. Great to have a broadened choice of interesting cars.
you are the best bro have fun in the alps
"I like it twisted and tight" -Shmee 2017
how comfortable is this car compared to your FF?
Some White Guy must be way more comfortable
Some White Guy Panamera is significantly more comfortable. Ride and noise.
THIS IS HOW SHMEE150 SAYS CHEERS... CHEEHEHEHERRTHS
Buen video Tim. Yo lo he analizado en Mi Canal esta semana y esta super bien. Me encanto la experiencia. Probe el 4s, 440 cv
It's amazing to see the headlights continuously adjusting for optimal vision at night!
You content keeps getting better!
Thanks for this Shmee!
great video. flying out skiing in the morning myself
I bought this car because of you review and I also added a chip because of you
love it, thanks
Those lights are incredible. Love how they follow the road and corners, i always enjoy that in my car (not a porsche)
Nice one Tim, thanks for that.
Enjoy your skiing.
cheers
I must buy 10 of these Panameras I love it!
"Driving thru Sitzerland is always a little bit funky". Ohh thank you Shmee!
2000kg car with 500hp has a range of 1000km. Not bad
Paul He Diesel
That's a hell of trip!! I live very near Meribel! ❄️
This should be your daily driver!
Hi from Manila, Philippines!!
ok
Carlos de Luna HI!!!!
Carlos de Luna lol mad?

Man I love the Panamera!
I think it's a very popular car amongst you guys, hopefully you enjoy the coming videos with it

I'm so excited for the upcoming videos in your channel, from South Africa with the 2018 s650 Landoulet. I can't wait.
I just got her! Unbelievable machine! Pulls like an elephant and in the same time burns 10-12 l/100 km. I think she has more than 421 hp? I had Audi A8 4.2 TDI 385 hp for 3 years and it's nothing like it.
Bruv uphill towards the skiing village is the best part
Paul Wallace would be proud of that fuel economy
Actually love the panamara! great GT car
Shouldn't "stock mode" be when the race chip is turned off and not in efficiency mode?
Why have an efficiency mode if it is identical to off?
Nice car but that mountain road would be best experienced with a 6.3l NA V12 don't you think? 👀
Seems to be much improved over the predecessor. Makr as many vids as possible please. great car. great vid!
What an amazing car :)
I feel like even standard those stats are insane
Very nice Tim, Porshe Panamera diesel, in race mode, very fuel efficiënt car, thanks for sharing, Shmee
shmee are you gonna shooting some of clip you skiing?
King yes
nice Audi bro.
King thanks
Strange Porsche does not enable that power from stock
Which size are the OZ's? They look bang on
Just a tip. There is a channel called NSC. Stands for no copyright sound. They share tons of tunes which you can play without having any issues with copyright. If you'd like to play some tunes.
Nice review, keep up the good work.
Greetings from Sweden
I did before and I still got a copyright complaint :(
That was interesting! Nice job!
Is this about 500 American hp?
What's the advertised mpg?
TDI VAG:s with a tank of over 50 litres have been capable of over 1k km since at least late 90´s. Did once bravely 1030km with my -98 tdi A3 to discover the next fill up was like 52ltr of the 55ltr capasity. Of course those
That distance for the adaptive cruise control can probably be adjusted. It can in my Mercedes. It's on the cruise-control stalk, there's a dial where I get to choose the gap distance.
Yup I am aware of that :)
Are you still going to take the FF to the alps
Yes, I'm doing a full trip in the FF in a few weeks time, it'll be about 3 weeks touring Europe and visiting a lot of places!
Shmee150
will you be visiting Ireland?
No, sorry, heading in the direction of the Alps
Shmee150 And where and when exactly? Just Switzerland and France or also Italy?
Shmee150 ferrari FF or Panamera 4s ? Which one will you choose
I feel your pain shmee. I hate all the rain when I'm driving up to the Swiss Alps to my daddy's cabin too. but generally my chauffeur is driving so the adaptive cruise control doesn't bother me.
@shmee150 I suggest to try get your hands on a Turbo model! can be a great replacement for the FF!
THANKS TIM
Nice car especially the red stripes.
please show us a little bit of the places you visit.. love to see Germany or the French alps and know them a litlle bit.. good content my friend
fuel no worry s mate and it is looking mutch better
that's a decent power and torque increase,just shows how 'safe' porsche leave the engine from the factory.
That's quite a cool positioning for the mobile phone holder
you should to Testdrive the turbo as well
Would love to see your take on the Maserati Quattroporte!
bro love ur videos
What are the 'Play/Pause' and 'Fast Forward' buttons on your jacket for? Noticed them at the end of the clip haha
Glad the nürburgring is having resurfacing work done or else you could go and beat my diesel car TH-cam lap record of 8:21.. Search BMW 335D xdrive 8:21 if you are interested Tim..
I would sooner have the controller hardwired in. Maybe even replacing the stock switches. I understand that would been more modification and expense, however that would be my preference
shmee will you ever get a bugatti? (veyron or chiron like EVER?)
Not unless I come up with some genius business idea!
Shmee150
haha
dream car😍 in pink shmee just so you know for Tuesday
Sophie Wilkinson You look like a drag queen though.
My 3.0 diesel PANAMERA @ 75mph does 52 mpg. That equals over 900 mls (1500 km) range!
Hi Tim, how does the quality of the interior compare between the FF and the new Panamera?
New Panamera is way better than the Ferrari, but that is logical. The Panamera is built by Germans and brand new.
Okay first thanks for the answer. And you're right after thinking about it, it is logical. But if you could compare it to any other car you tested what would you say?
Shmee150 Deustche Autos sind gut 👌

Shmee & the empty garages : a long love story...
I can see plenty of people suggesting you replace the FF with a variant of that Panamera already. haha
I always used to slow down in the rain, well after a crash anyway. Lower speed limit in the rain, a good idea for the UK?
I think the car might have the 90l tank, at least that's an option which you can choose when you order a Panamera.
You wanna know who the coolest person is?
Read the first word 😘
Over 1k km's range is nuts! I'm working in Mottaret above Meribel for this season, do you have a meeting scheduled whilst you're here?
will you get a racechip for one of your cars?
Nope not planning to
Did you have any problems with door closing? I heard many opinions that the door handle inside is too far.
I think this Panamera 4S Diesel can replace your Ferarri FF, but the problem is the noise in that diesel engine
my 530d is not as quick (310hp and 644nm of torque) but on a long cruise i can get 610 miles to a tank tank is an 80 litre tank.
Having to stop, pull out a phone, and make a change to performance settings seems bothersome. Surely the RaceChip engineers could have integrated something on the dashboard for on-the-fly changes. Also the fuel tank is 75L in the Diesel so the economy displayed here is great for a 420hp car.
Nice.. can you turn off the safety controls you spoke about??
Yup you can, I will show that tomorrow :)
What was your actual fuel economy in liters/100km? But 1.000km range is amazing,
Would you ever consider purchasing a 4x4 for some of the long journeys :)
Hey tim where are you going skiing because i am going to go to val dí sare next week
Enjoy, that's a great place
did you fill it up before reaching the resort? how many liters?
doing over 1100km regularly in a Volvo S80 D5, loaded with kids and a full boot, "German motorway" cruising speeds
Hi Shmee150, would you consider a Panamera as succesor for the FF?
it would be a awesome care for long and comfortable roadtrips !
give us a video in the panamera turbo!
Your getting close to 1 million subscribers. You going to have a celebration of some sort when you hit it? That; and visiting family, would be worth flying back to my homeland for.
Any idea when (or if) the diesel will be available in the U.S.??
Diesel is very underrated
Guys the v8 sound you hear is generated and digital and is not from the engine or exhaust
Close to 1m subs. 20k views. Wow.
1000 nm thats amazing shmee
also cant wait for your amg GTR has arrived im sure the vids will be great
Still six months away ;)
Not sure, it is not planned yet
Don't know what your plans are while in Meribel but If you would like to have company on the slopes I'm based in the next valley in Courchevel.
