During our visit to Porsche last month, we were surprised to learn that there is not one single Panamera in the United States ever since the model made its debut. Well, Porsche has just announced that the first 31 U.S. bound Porsche Panamera models are in the air and on their way to North America, where they will be seen for the first time by the U.S. public at a series of major events during the Monterey Peninsula Automotive Week (the week of August 9-16). Those interested in checking out the Panamera in real can head over to the Quail Lodge, the Monterey Historics and the famed Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance.

“The cars were airlifted directly from Leipzig, Germany, where they are produced alongside the Cayenne SUV using the most state-of-the-art production methods,” Porsche said.

993C4S is an unknown quantity at this point

The only thing I would add, to the post Darren pasted above, is that there have been Panamera's in the US and, in fact, there was an earlier, private debut for members of the Porsche Club of America at the 2009 Parade. A picture from that event is in the post Schwabe references.

Porsche had one out at one of the dealerships in ATL last weekend. My father was all over it. He liked it overall, said it was a little "ass heavy" and to many buttons on the console. Friend of his takes delivery of one of those first cars. Looking forward to his impressions.
