DOUGSCORE CHART: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/... - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
How you know Doug is biased: "it has better handling than the E63" gives It a lower handling score anyway
e63 was like his first love. just gotta let him be biased
literally dougscore is screwed up
I stop watching as soon as the scoring segment starts.
@Yazeed Albeladi
I challenge you.. to check out the MERCEDES Benz DR520 WAGON. That.. is damn hot.
Does anyone really watch for the Dougscore segment? I thought they only watch the part till where he drives it
The $180,000 Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo Is the Most Expensive Wagon Ever... excluding the $230,000 Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo Turbo S E-hybrid which is actually the Most Expensive Wagon Ever
I was wondering that. ''If this is the most expensive Panamera, why didn't he say anything about the hybr... oh it is not that one. Nevermind then'' Thanks for the comment dude have a nice day!
It's the most expensive wagon ever! True. Believe me :P
Sorry, had to be said :D
Didn't he review a $300,000 Ferrari Wagon?
Okay... neither one is a super car or a race car. They're both on-road sports cars and both wagons.
cheaper to run though because hybride and way more powerful (+130hp)
Seeing Doug get trapped in the back of the wagon and then realizing he made a mistake is probably one of my top 10 scenes in Doug's filmography.
He wasn't though, he was just trying to be entertaining.
I love all your videos guys. Why do you say you are 6'3" in some videos and 6'4" in other videos? Do you have a sport mode or front lifters installed or something?
herbsta magus lol
Guess he's like 6.35
Lol...I think it depends on the temperature
herbsta magus : like many, he lies about size...
😅
*Thanks for showing Km/h, Kg and Liters units as a subtitle.*
One of the reasons i respect doug!
@@Jay-py6ln yeah
Anarchy Record Productions i agree
Doug should voice a character in Cars 4.
Doug should appear in a future release of Cars
He should review the cars in Cars
YES PLZ
Actually the LED matrix adaptation on vehicle recognition is not that uncommon of a feature. If you buy a new Audi A3 you can get it as an option. What it does, is that the LED headlights are split up in smaller lights (matrix) and when you have your high beams on during night driving, some of the LED matrix light turns off when you meet a car, but it turns off just the necessary ones to not blind the other driver. Basically you will se a big black dot exactly at the car moving towards you, but the rest of the field of view is still lighted. It's a really cool feature that makes you not have to turn off your high beams at all during night driving. And it's also very good for safety and comfort.
Thank you Captain
Mercedes e class had this since 2013. And it’s now an option even in the entry a class and cla
My Town and Country has sensing high beams. Probably not in a matrix or LED, but probably does the same thing. Porsche shoppers, if that's what you want, just look at the Chrysler Minivan that's been discontinued.
The clock-face has seconds on it because if you order the Sport Chrono package that same clock is programmed differently and works as a stopwatch.
Also, if you add Sport Chrono the 0-60 time improves .2 - .3 seconds. Not insignificant. I wonder if that should have affected the acceleration score (and altered the comparison to the MB), but I'm too lazy to download the spreadsheet...
We still got the 1957 Porsche Speedster for you to review. I sent an email and can’t wait to hear from you Doug.
Is it real or a replica? All Speedster e-mails I have received have been added to my spreadsheet and replied to.
I want to see this spreadsheet
Doug DeMuro it is totally real. I’ve sent you two emails regarding this car. Just to be sure your email is with a yahoo.com correct?
OK, I see your e-mail. You sent it just four days ago. I get about 150 e-mails a day, and I'm running about a 2-week delay in replying. No need to send multiple. I'll get back to you!
A Glimpse Inside this made my day. Horrible day. Ayyy there we go this is great
If I had a dollar for every time doug told us he’s 6’4 I could buy this car
Saul Ades and hes really 5'10
Saul Ades word if I had s dollar for every time he said he was 6’’4 bill gates would be my bitch
He's just establishing his credentials in the pecking order for the few women who do watch these videos... tallest/biggest/most manly car reviewer? ... still Matt Farah. But he's classier and more worldly, so DeMuro wins.
So true
Lol, he used to be 6'3"
I just came upon this channel, and all I have to say it...this is quentin tarantino reviewing cars.
Daniel Yerkes no it’s fuckin Sheldon cooper
Daniel Yerkes fuck you
what is quentin tarantino kown for? that this is the Q T ?
Fuck you
The key turn is a throwback to Porsche racing cars where the ignition was on the left and was controlled by, of course, actual keys.
fun thing about it - Doug knew aout it in his regular Panamera review, but he forgot that by the time he was filming this
14:35 Doug is the type of guy who has never picked someone up at the airport
exactly what I was going to say, thank you Sir
pauldzim Well you can't create a fucking video yet complain about Doug.
not sure why i'd do it on the car screen and not my phone, but whatever...
Cut him some slack...he's a bus guy, not a car guy
ABusGuy the type of guy to not understand memes
Seeing this, I feel like the Panamera should've been a wagon from the start.
Average Floridian it kind of always has been.
Eh... it wasn't even really a proper hatchback before... more like a hunchback, somewhere between fastback and hatchback. To be honest, this new one is more hatchback than wagon. I know wagons have gotten shorter with a more forward leaning than traditional wagons, blurring the lines a bit, and I get why they have changed. I've had a couple wagons. The extended length behind the rear wheels and the near vertical squared off roof line really do add a TON of utility. The newer wagons are just kind of slightly chubbier hatchbacks. Utility is sacrificed for style. Anyway, the modern styling is somewhere between to the two, so it depends on your baseline perspective. I get what you're saying though. It never had that sleek classic Porsche line.
It looks so much better, I'd actually get one if I was rich and needing a new car. Fast wagons are the best
777jones it's an SUV
777jones 4 doors and a hatch don’t make a station wagon. Take the Tesla model S or Audi RS7, for example.
Looks like someone stepped on a cayenne
😂
Loo
U made my day omg LOLMA!!!
thats the cayenne coupe
LMAO
Now I expect my Porsche Panamera Sport Tourismo to come with a Doug in the back
5:51 He says he's 6'4" , but I remember he used to say he was 6'3" in older videos. Doug you can't grow every year!
He was wearing high heels that day.
Doug the kinda guy who grows every year.
He is still in puberty

Porsche, you had doug at wagon
maxxjett films lmao
He literally jizzed his pants when he heard it
hope you get top comment
Doug type of guy to get excited at the prospect of sleeping in the back of a station wagon.
How's that sti Baja build coming along?
Hello from Greece!!!!!
Really nice touch that you show as subtitles (in the video) the "cubic feet" and the "liters" or "mph" and "kph", so that everyone in the world, even if they are in a metric (or not) system, they do not need a unit converter to undestand the figures.
And....very nice video!!!! I really like that you don't follow the stereotypes how to show the car and its features. Keep up the good work!!
The air vents blowing cold air on nuts when I sit in the middle.
The mount hitch for the blow up doll is extra.
12:00 You have to turn that "little plastic thing" because it's about the Porsche tradition of keeping the ignition on the left side of the steering wheel, but also having the modern tech such as a keyless system.
The left side ignition was originally designed in the 1920's for the Le Mans race. That was because, back then, racers were supposed to actually run to their cars and power them on when the race started. Porsche realized that having the ignition on the traditional right side was not the fastest way to gain a head start because the driver's right hand was busy with starting the engine while their left hand was doing nothing. So they moved the ignition to the left so that drivers can start the engine and also put it in gear at the same time, resulting in a faster start.
Pretty cool, if you ask me.
Andrei Călin sure but it still doesn't explain why it's not a button, which would be much easier to use.
It's about the actual turning of the key. I guess that's what they wanted to keep, the feeling.
looked for this comment. thanks for remembering porsche traditions
You can't get the same satisfaction pushing a button to start a car then you can from turning a key or this starter "knob"
@@ttjoseph1 Are you sure about that? Because he's showing he doesn't know much about the car or company.
HIgh beam adaption means the headlights will dim when it detects an oncoming car
yeah I don't know how he didn't figure that out
Yea no way he couldn't figure that out on his own, i guess he wanted us to fill up the comment section.
You just described every new car.
It should be called "anti-douche bag fail safe".... seems like the more expensive a car is and/or how bright of lights a car has the less likely their high beams are to be turned off at an appropriate distance, or at all.
Which is a feature almost all high-end luxury cars have these days😂😂
Dreamcar right here!
snowcat the f u doing here
snowcat my dad owns one
@@baleanueduard4872 he's leaving a comment.
My dad has one but in germany it only cost 134000€ (160,000$)
It is literally the only car I want in the whole world and I just got one last week
If Porsche had started with this, they would have saved a ton of money on marketing, outside of China.
Didn't know you watched this channel o.o
How so?
Aka the pandemic starters.
Oh Doug, one day I will read your column on Autotrader Dot Com Slash Oversteer, but today is not that day.
YPOC you’re not missing much. I went to it once and was mildly disappointed.
The reason behind turning a "dial lever thing" to start the engine is no other than keeping the Porsche tradition of having the key slot to the left of the steering wheel. That lever just simulates the key you would have inserted had the car not had the keyless function.
"Little plastic thing that sticks out from the left side of steering wheel" is Porsches herritage to old 24 hours Le Man races, where race stars by that drivers run to their cars and have to start engines. And "starting little thing" is closer and earlier accesible by left side, Porsche put it on left side.
Some kind of herritage is also that stop watch (im not sure about details of it).
All the tests you do are great. But the best thing about this video has been the background soundtrack, the rumor of the V-8 on. Orgasmic.
I like the start lever/button thing. Simulates you turning the key like in the good ole days. I like it.
Or you could, y'know, have a regular fucking key.
Cormac Godfrey why would you want that?
Alan Bowers cause its less prone to malfunctions
Donk 2x says who?
Alan Bowers idk some fuckin elitists
Doug the type of guy to ask the Uber driver for relationship advices
Doug the type of guy to ask to review the Uber Driver's car
And then he’ll give the Uber driver a Doug score.
Doug the type of guy that buys tupperware off Amazon
Really liked the way you explained the value and comparison to other similar vehicles towards the end of the video. Very well done
Doug the type of guy to wear two t-shirt at the same time
Tommy Halfniger the type of guy to fantasize about Doug and beat off with twizers
12:10 Doug, It's cause back in the day Porsche had the innovative idea of moving the ignition switch to the left so their race car drivers could get the key fob in faster (they used to have to run to their cars, strap in, and start their engine before moving). Porsche choses to leave the ignition switch because there because race car.
The split in the rear light bar makes sense when you watch the regular Panamera video and the rear spoiler deploys. It's there for styling as the extensions to the spoiler create a line when the spoiler is parked and it lines up with the split in the light bar. They've just used the same part on the Sport Tourismo.
13:30 that turns of the high beams automatically when the car detects another car coming towards it, not to blind the other drivers
13:30
The high beams can detect oncoming vehicles and dim themselves.
That's what I get out of it.
The “lever thing” to start the car is part of Porsche’s heritage, when there was a time where racers had to start the car and start racing , Porsche made sure that the racers can start the car with the left hand , so they placed the key there , but after feedback that it was difficult to take out the key every time , Porsche made it into a knob!
Anirudh K Finally someone who knows it's just a Porsche tradition and not to stand out or because the designers were bored.
A car thief might think the driver left the key on the ignition.
Exactly. Why doesn’t anybody know this?
Oh interesting!
th-cam.com/video/Wlk5OB9tYs0/w-d-xo.htmlm10s
Doug DeMuro yea , exactly , I wonder why u didn't include that info in this vid , makes you look uninformed
Seconds are crucial in car racing and since this is a Porsche, the clock set-up is reflective of the Porsche GT racing heritage. That's the explanation for the clock being what it is. It still tells time, accurately, but it is unique.
That climate control system would be cooler if instead of just showing the same thing as a manual switch, it showed where the air will hit the person in the seat.
August Sawzak but when you move the seat or even yourself it would show garbage
August Sawzak I think you’re on to somethin
Dude, in one of the latest reviews, Doug shows off a new feature that does exactly that (forgot which vehicle). Great minds think alike!
2:56 Nice bumper to bumper
DAMN IT Doug! Your videos always drop when I’m taking dump, so I sit for half hour and now my legs are numb!
ryan Mosey same. Now I need help off the toilet.
and now the poop on your butt has dried on your skin making it harder to wipe off.. smear all over
prince royal this is why we use water
prince royal wtf😂😂 yea u right!!!
Rahul Ajith more like shower .. Indians be hairy
The dial lever thing to start the porshe is about tradition, reminds the old days of racing when tge match began with the driver running to the car, once inside it drivers had to start the car with the left hand while gearing first shift with the right hand.
Man, you are just the perfect reviewer to help me sleep. I never finished one video. You just have that soothing voice and boring way of telling quirks that just put me directly to sleep.
Thank you so much
If porsche changed nothing but raising the suspension three inches, it would sell as an suv and be more popular
maxxjett films lol true
That's the Mission E Cross Turismo lol
But Porsche already has a SUv for normies, it's the Macan
And it’s a god damn travesty. Tired of all the SUV’s
maxxjett films or crossover
ssflipallday. Selling SUVs keeps them in the white so they can keep selling sportscars. Nobody bitches about Chevy selling every other type of car just because they prefer the Corvette.
That's adaptive high beams so whenever another vehicle comes your way your car will automatically switch off the high beams and then switch them back on once you pass them. Pretty simple my friend
Chico Dust-E The Matrix LED System allows the high beams to stay active. Just the incoming cars get blacked out. This is next level adaptive high beam stuff.
Stephan Heuser if it's anything like the matrix system on Audi then it auto dims the lights for oncoming traffic which is essentially turning the high beams OFF then back on and i will admit I'm not a Porsche tech but from the description it sounds just like the Audi system with the ability to be an asshole and turn it off so you blind people.
The Audi system technically is always on high beams too you should check them out
Chico Dust-E It's essentially the same system, since both Audi and Porsche are both part of the V.W. group.
That’s why every modern car blinds me for a second isn’t it, because it’s a shit system that doesn’t work as well as an attentive driver.
Or the car doesn't have that feature and the drivers were idiots not adjusting their lights.
7:38 those vents are gonna blow right up main Street.
Cool car! But I'm old, and I like the old Panamera's fighter jet buttons everywhere, and an old person's traditional shifter.
Doug Demuro, the kind of guy to rate his Farts a Doug score: Comfort, styling, acceleration, practicality and value.
Value? Like emissions per bean or something?
Bob Dobalina the kind of guy to snort a line of coca-Cola because he thought he was going to get high.
6:25 1999 VW New Beetle 1.8 Turbo had electronic-adjustable automatic roof spoiler.
Алексей Хотыненко good point. But a bug isn't a car, it's a popcan.
Was gonna say, cause I own one.
Beat me to it!
*FWD Porsche
So did the Corrado...
I have one of these cars and I absolutely love it. Everyone asks me what it is with that body style. I have had more compliments in this car than any car I've ever owned this is my first Porsche. Before this everything I had was either an Escalade or Mercedes-Benz I will never return to either. The word engineering is an understatement for these cars and I'm 6'2 but I'm getting old and starting to shrink
Love mine, future classic...Love it. KEEPER
@@koolkeiths I use mine. 60k already. Been perfect.
Nice to see the Kiwi t-shirt, hope you enjoyed the visit, had a decent ride and some good Kiwi hospitality There are some very cool, rare cars down here, but we're keeping them. Kiwi's have always had a passion for speed, world fastest Mini, Indian etc F1 races here for years back when it was more friendly, less money and more DIY.Lots of Kiwi legends..
Doug the type of guy to give a girl at the Asian massage parlor a Doug score

doug is the type of guy to wait for a stop sign to turn green
that flight app is great on the infotainment. When you are picking someone up from the airport its a good way to check when the flight arrives instead of picking up your phone.
by the by i love that exhaust note !!!
5:35 so no one can see a sack of cocaine in the back?
I'mma buy this thing...
What are u talking about?
@@mValue1 that's a dark joke dude
Don't call 911 for that
the key-thing is because of the old porsches... it's alwasy on the left side :)
Exactly
That’s not what he was talking about, he’s already mentioned that on the many other Porsche’s he’s reviewed. Does he have to mention why they put it on the left side for literally every single Porsche review because you can’t understand what he’s saying?
golden mirror it because when Porsche used to be racing it was easier for the drivers to jump in and start up right away
Doug the kind of guy who keeps making great high quality content for our free entertainment!
Love you bro
Thank you for that thorough comparison of the cargo area👍
Just bought one Doug..... did a search here on TH-cam to see if anyone had reviewed it... You always seem to be ahead of the curve. It's a nice complement to my 911. Besides I won't let the dog in the 911. Keep up the great work.
Doug got all up in that rear end...
This channel needs more giant T-shirts poking out from under smaller T-shirts.
I'd just like a DougScore t-shirt.
I’m pretty sure he does that to keep his sweaty pit stains from showing after his hours of filming in the sun lol
artistwithouttalent yeah one that says "... and then I'm gonna give it a Doug Score" on the front. Ha. That way you can just fill in the blank as to what you are scoring.
"If someone is complaining about..."
My BT headphones go "low battery"
Perfect timing i would say
And Doug, the first-gen New Beetle Turbo has the pop up roof spoiler. Had a switch to raise and lower it, too.
Doug the kind of guy to bring a taser into a gun fight
Definitely more of a pepper spray kind of guy
Will Smit
You mean a rape alarm kind of guy.
He would bring one of those terrible handheld stun guns and try to use it like a taser.
What about the Turbo S E-Hybrid... It’s cooler, faster and more expensive
It‘s not really faster, because the Batteries are pretty heavy. So it‘s not that good at the track, despite of the manoeuvrability you lose. Furthermore the batteries are used like a NOS system. You press the button and get 300 HP for a few seconds, but you‘re only able to do it a few times because the accumulator will be empty very soon.
Yves Münster it IS faster. I drove one
comandernejo stop lying
Hi there, a few points: the straight line speed of a regular Turbo is actually not that fast at all, compared with the new E63 wagon and even the old RS6. Turbo S E-Hybrid is crazy fast in a straight line. I doubt anyone would use the Panamera as a serious track car, most racing drivers in my series drive their street cars to the Track car park and switch to a shit box(Polo, E46, GK5, Mini etc. Mine is a 206, parked in the field with a cover and no door lock) for practice.
As an owner of the baby Panamera 4 E-Hybrid, I can confirm your saying about the manoeuvrability part, it actually feels cumbersome when I drive enthusiastically. But the E-Hybrid system does not work as you described, or shall I say not entirely. In hybrid mode it works like, for lack of a better term, a Prius. The battery drives the wheels and if you don't press the accelerator deep enough the engine kicks in when the charge is low. In Sport+ the engine is always charging the Battery, and you get the full 462 BHP experience and a really bad fuel economy(I got 16-18 highway).
I haven't tried the Sports Response Button yet, as far as I know, it allows higher boost on the petrol engine hence gives maximum attack. I've heard from a few ECU tunning companies that this higher boost mode can be activated permanently via ECU tune, and it gives close to 450WHP and 3.8 accelerations. I might do that if I feel the car isn't fast enough, provided the tune doesn't hurt the fuel economy in hybrid mode.
The Turbo s E-Hybrid is actually much faster and cheaper... at least in Finland because it’s a hybrid. You know the taxes are lower on hybrids here.
Momma's old station wagon never sounded like that!!
Momma never got the groceries home at the same speed either..... I guess :)
The ignition switch refers back to porches racing heritage. When drivers raced in the old days they ran up to the car before starting. the placement on the left is also a reference to porches early racing heritage.
Doug’s the type of guy to wear an undershirt larger than his overshirt.
18:00 this one killed me LOL
The airport feature is awesome, I use an app on my phone for that every time I pick someone up. If the plane is delayed I'll know and not waste my time in the airport. Having it in the infotainment system is perfect.
I think the thing that’s so great about this channel is that it hasn’t changed, even when I started watching at 100k
"Preparation for Deletion of Model Designation" most likely means the badges are just stuck on with emblem tape, with no holes in the bumper, so you can just remove them if you want to without worrying about having holes to fill.
Patrick94GSR yeah exactly
I believe that means that the deletion is in the equipment-codes, so if you do delete them the car is perfectly original and unchanged.
Max S. Could be that as well... pretty sure it’s that lol
The way he says 911 brings back a lot of good memories 😂😂😎👌🏿👌🏿😎
Doug I don't know how much people mention this but your sense of humour is on point 😂 best car reviewer ever!!
I had Doug's pronunciation of Porsche in my head a few days ago and now he uploads this video, I'm psychic!
Isn't the Ferarri FF also a station wagon? Or "shooting brake" which is essentially the same thing. That car cost around 300k making it way more expensive than this Porsche.
frank spijker only 2 doors on the Ferrari.
Shooting brake
Two door station wagon. Just like your grand-grandpa Chevy Nomad
It’s kind of unfair... You should’ve reviewed a Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid Sport Turismo. 680 hp, 3.4 s and 310 km/h. That’s the real attractive Panamera these days.
Those vents are not for the windshield defroster Doug. The windshield defroster vents are right at the bottom of the windshield. This is the dashboard vent that Porsche has done on the Macan and Cayenne as well, which is pointed towards the interior of the car but not to let you feel the cold or warm air directly. It cools or heats the car in a more subtle way, which I enjoy and imagine most people enjoy.
Thank you for the e63 wagon comparison, as a fellow e63 wagon owner I appreciate it... I never thought that the e63 would be a "good value" till this video. Sadly Porsche doesn't offer this model at their experience center. It's on the web site, but they don't have one in their corral - going next week.
I was in traffic, stopped for a good 30min. Looking around furiously trying to figure out the safest way.. I could get the hell out of this traffic. I had plenty of room in front.. but I needed to negotiate my way to the left or right.
Then out of the Blue.. comes a recent 2-3yr old E63 AMG Wagon. Dude asked if he could slide into the GAPING 3 car spot I had left in front of me. I said.. SURE. I let it slide in front of me.. and my mouth just dropped. I couldnt stop staring at the rear.. at the sides. I said to myself.. baby, you can slide in front of me.. any time youd like. --- Took out my device, (it was sitting in its usual spot 2' away from me, face down, made to ONLY take high res pictures).. 1 button click to get it on, aligned the shot. Got it.
I then forgot completely about waiting.. another 20min in traffic. Forgot my name, forgot almost everything.
Fucking Damn.. what a nice DAMN NICE car. Id walk into street poles to stare at it!
13:27 I the adaptive high beam assistant means you can have full beam headlights on all the time and the car will adjust for any oncoming traffic automatically so you don't blind anyone. Mercedes and bmw have this as options as well. Other cars probably do as well
Mercedes invented it, but now it’s pretty standard on luxury cars (Audi has it too). Weird that he didn’t know what it was.
Needs a big juicy strip of wood paneling down the sides. And a year supply of Lemon Scent Pledge.
Aww the old Holbert’s. My dad worked there for over 30 years. So many fond memories of all the odd models coming through the shop. Good times.
Just got a CPO 2018 Panamera 4S Sport Turismo 18k Mile mint version of this and can’t wait to pick it up next week!!😍🔥🤠
13:35 is LED matrix high beam assist we've seen this Doug you should know what it is
If I would have to guess it reduces high beam intensity when there's a car coming the other way.. Doesn't sound like rocket science to me as high beams are blinding as 🦆
Your guess is right.
it dimms only where the incoming car is and its bright around the car

I bet you wait in line for the latest iphone
Douglas the type of guy to bring a taser gun to a shooting range.
Street Speed 918 😂😂😂😂😁
Street Speed 918 the type of guy to get trained by gay hawian men
The sarcasm on the corks & features is AWESOME... Doug was on one on this day!
Essentially what LED-Matrix high beam assistant is is that when the vehicle senses another vehicle coming or in front of you the lights will dim for the other vehicle so that they won't blind them while still giving you visibility
Those vents on top of the dash are not for defrost - they're just regular upper vents for passenger comfort. The defrost vents are at the very base of the windshield, way further forward, and are non-adjustable. Just like any other car.
Doug the type of guy to give his wife a Doug Score.
I heard he gave your wife one too ;)
southernbenz so over-used man, gotta be original!🤗
Doug the type of guy that tries to rev a Prius in an empty parking lot
on to the weekend categories, she gives fairly good puss which would normally be good enough for an 8 but her trash ass head bumps her down to a 5
Doug review is the only style review that does everything!!! even better than OEM instruction Manual
High beam assist is when you're on an unlit road at night with the high beams on, it will adjust/switch between high and normal when it detects a car coming the other way so you don't dazzle them and then back to high after they've passedDamn useful in the sticks, used it plenty times on my Arteon
Can't wait for you to get your hands on the GT63S
The LED matrix high beam assist setting is far from difficult to understand. I will simplify it for you, do you want the car to automatically operate the high beams? Check mark means yes, remove the check mark and you have to manually operate the high beams.
LOVE my Sport Turismo. Came from an E91 6mt, and I don't miss it one bit.
You said you liked the E63 style more than the panamera tourism, yet on your weekend score you rated the styling of the porsche higher. Your awesome Doug.
Thanks
12:15 Porsche says they have a tradition to put the key slot on the left side of the steering wheel and that's all they could do to keep it with the keyless engine start
Dough, that High Beam matrix adaptation system is there to avoid dazzling the oncoming vehicle at night. What it does is that it switches off certain section of the led based on the oncoming vehicle's position.
Yeah I don't understand what was unclear about that one...
Mercedes has it too. And so does Audi and BMW, it’s a common thing for luxury cars.
I begin to think that Doug plays dumb to find some quirks where there are none...
This happens all the time. Not so long ago he though center caps on alloys was something uniqe and weird.
I´ve been driving one that was around 220000 $ The Turbo S even has 680hp. I actually think turning the "plastic fake key" is more satisfying than just pressing a button!
13:25 "LED-Matrix high beam assistant" is a system that can detect cars in front of you (while you have your high beams on) and can turn of individual LEDs in the headlights. This givs the driver better visibility and does not blind other drivers.
You said it handles better than an M5 or E63, yet you gave it a 6/10 compared to the E63 which got a 7/10 -_-
Zac Kirstein perhaps handling means more than one thing... There is handling for sport and for comfort driving.... Porsche does sport really well not so much comfort whereas m5 and e63 do both kinds of handling really well... Idk just a thought.
John Bobby the Porsche handles all situations better but it isnt really the competitor of the e63 or the m5 . It competes with s Class or 7 series
MrBigL100 it doesn't handle all situations better. Only sporty ones.
Not the s class or 7 series. Its the cls and 6 series that compete with the panemera..... Although the e63 and m5 don't directly compete with the panemera... They are still compared to the panemera because they are way better cars overall, especially for the money.
John Bobby No the Panamera is a Luxus-Sedan, a class over CLS and 6 Series, Porsche itself defines them as competitors, they also sell a executive version of this. And it is more comfortable in handling as a e63 or M5. It has just a more expensive suspension and steering which can handle everything better. I have driven every of this cars and I can say that out of my own experience, if you don’t believe me, it is your problem
MrBigL100 lmao panemera can't touch s class or 7 series when it comes to luxury. Heck it can't even beat the e63 or m5 when it comes to luxury either. Porsche says this targets the cls and 6 series. No it doesn't have better suspension and steering. Anybody can claim anything on TH-cam. Doesn't make it true.
Meanwhile I can explain and give reasons why e63 and m5 are way better than the panemera.. Let alone the s class or 7 series which blows the panemera out of the water even more.
Bmw and Mercedes are light years ahead of Porsche when it comes to technology features luxurious amenities, comfort etc. You realize even the s class which came out in 2014 and 7 series in 2016 have way more technology and features than even this panemera?? Despite the fact that panemera came out only so recently! Mercedes had more technology etc years ago! Does panemera have stone massaging seats? No.
Does panemera have airbag seatbelts? No. Does it have magic body control like on the e clas and s class which scans the road ahead for bumps and pepares the suspension ahead of time so you can even go over a speed bump and not know it!?! No. Thats way more advanced and comfortable than porsches suspension. Does it have active suspension that adjusts so that the car is kept flat to even counter banks with no body roll like the s class? No. Does the panemera have as an advanced autopilot as the 5 series or 7 series or e class or s class? No. Heck it doesn't even have an autopilot system to begin with! Does the panemera have ambient lighting? No. Does it have a perfume dispenser? Does it have 4wd to red and vise versa flexibility? No.... I could go on and on and on.. And I am not even scratching the surface. Like I said the BMW and Mercedes and even audi are absolutely light years ahead of all Porsche when it comes to technology, features, comfort, luxurious amenities, etc etc. Oh and remember the Germans had all these things YEARS before Porsche released their panemera. Porsche had 4 years to take notes and still they are behind and struggling to catch up. So its the other way around.. It doesn't have anywhere near the level of sophisticaation as much as the other germans have. heck the Porsche doesn't even basic technology like self parking assist which even a ford has. So the the other e63 and m5 beat the panemera in nearly every single way and on top of all thay still cost way less. Its a no brainer the panemera is overpriced whereas the e63 and m5 are far better cars and far more valuable too. Not to mention they are also more comfortable, and have way better exhaust notes than the panemera.
