YouTube - Autocar - Porsche Panamera Turbo

 

Wow Pierre great find, posted it to our fbook page too!

 

Here is another test, the first US test.

The thing I have a problem with is the performance numbers posted by Porsche. No other Porsche has a better performance for the same model in AWD. Further the Panamera turbo has only 100HP more then the S yet is .8 seconds faster from 0-60, just seems too much difference for just 100HP.

Most reports say that it can reach 0-60 (in this report) in 3.8 seconds with the optional SC. And I have read in other reports that they achieve these numbers with launch control which makes it questionable. I just have doubts that it will be on par with a 997TT.

..yes, but the big difference is the Torque that make the TT which brake inertia easier and move fast!

 

thanks for posting this. I am thinking of putting the order in tomorrow.

 

You guys think the panny in the header is the correct height next to a CGT ?

 

yes, that looks right.

 

I'd have to see them side by side in person to be sure, but it looks about right to me.
