Newbie says hello

My Panamera 4S is being built this month and I anticipate delivery in late March or early April. This board is the most active and interesting Panamera forum that I have found and I have enjoyed it very much, congrats to you all for this great community.

My car is Platinum Silver with Black standard leather and Aluminium trim. Options include: Bose, PSE, PDCC with sport chrono, F/R Park assist, 14 way seats. Not much else. I have owned 3 Porsches before (993 C4, Boxster S, 996 C4S) all silver and black! Looking forward to driving the new car soon...

You chose the best combo for your panamera, the black/silver scheme always works well on porsches. Can't wait to see some pics!!!

I also got the Bluetooth, Ipod adapter and XM radio options and the heated steering wheel. I plan on driving the car year round and we have a snowy winter in my neck of the woods. Dealer will sell me a set of 18 inch wheels with snows at cost and store whatever set of wheels I am not using. The summer tires will be on 19s.

I live in a snowy region also. I have the stock 18" Porsche rims with Pirelli winter tires on now and I will swap them with 20" Porsche Spyder rims with Michelins for the summer.

I have to say that the rear camera is essential. Terrible rear visability when backing up.

I thought about the camera but felt that the park sensor would be good enough, we'll see if I am right about that. It had better be, too late to change the order...

After driving a vehicle with rear camera, I will never have another one without it. I've heard it's essential in the Panamera. I hope you don't regret not getting it.

Rojda, does the sensor include a beeping sound that increases as you get close to an object? I forgot to ask the dealer about that. The one I test drove didn't have the park assist option.
