My first view of the Pana was at a VIP presentation at a boutique hotel enclaved downtown Puebla, Mexico and the Pana look huge inside the tiny hotel. Since this was an static presentation the only thing I could do was check the quality of materials and built. Superb. Everything is tight. This was on Thursday by Sunday I was on the track and had my second view of the Pana. Once outside it didn't look huge and the lines started to make sense. Saw it move but was not yet allowed to drive it. Monday came and after a long intro of the car came time to drive. The amount of buttons and options is quite intimidating so I just decided to drive, I pushed sport every time I went in and sport plus if applicable. Pana S most fun, Pana 4S heavier and plenty of electronic help at all times, refined, Turbo with PCCB's, hectic, brutal yet controlable and refined. First impression is they are very solid, fast and refined but it was hectic jumping from one to the other, not time for notes, just drive, drive, drive. Tuesday, on the road, more time to enjoy options, Burgmeister, impressive, PCCB's, brutal, Sport Seats, expensive, regular Seats, adequate, ruffled leather, reccomendable, alcantara roof, a must, it helps a lot with the interior ambiance, Cocoa interior, get it with alu, wood loosens purpose, Beige, nice, alu or wood ok with beige, PDK fluctuated performance from model to model, Turbo ok, 4S hard on downshift, S overheated, engine, aspirated nice, linear, better than Cayenne, S had good consumption, 4S less good, Turbo guzzler, Turbo lag present, be careful when on twisty roads, handling superb, superb, superb, plenty of grip on all models, more fun on S, rear doesn't move is solid on turns, front understeer but on S and Turbo can module with gas, on 4S electronics take over and point you on right direction, ooohhhh 4 zone air con also a must for passengers, nice option BTW, what else... did I like it, yes, a lot...view my blog, DJ help to point on to blog or bring pics, I'm on a remote can't upload
