Thanks for the positive comments guys! I am loving Pannie a little more each day, can't wait till the running period is over!
Actually, I have the Porsche child seats on order, and so far I'm not taking my daughter along for rides in the car, but when she saw Daddy snapping photos, she wanted in!
Yup, car costs a fortune here, around 280 grand! Insane huh?
I went with the 4S for better traction and acceleration, and funny thing, a week into driving the car, it snowed all over Syria and I was almost trapped in a snowstorm on the highway! Also rains a lot, so all wheel drive was definitely in the cards.
The only two people who actually made fun of the color where my two brothers (black Cayenne and meteor 911 owners) but when they saw how much everyone else actually liked the color, have now decided to change their tone too!
Thanks again for the thumbs up comments, as I am now sure I made the right choice (as opposed to the carbon gray i contemplating over)

Sorry for the delay guys, but here are some pics of my 4s with the following options;
two tone cognac cedar leather with natural olive matt wood trim
20" spyder wheels
Burmester stereo
Alcantara roof lining
ski bag
Rear ambient lighting package
comfort package for seats
adaptive cruise control
rearview camera
steering wheel heating
wheel centers with porsche crest
rear wiper
voice control
tv tuner
PASM
Sports chrono
Side and rear curtains
Entry and drive
ventilated and heated seats
rear comfort seats
heated rear seats
door entry guards
Noise insulated and heat resistant glass
I've racked up only 1500 km so far and am really babying it (no sports modes or heavy driving)
And coming from a X6 50i with similair hp (407 vs 400) here are my comments
The X6 feels quicker (throttle response but then again I haven't tried the sports or sports plus)
The exhaust on the X6 is much more aggressive and noticeable. Mine doesn't have the sports exhaust which is the only option I would have added (this was a showroom car)
The seats are phenomenal and very very comfortable, the heated steering wheel is very effective and is felt after only 30 seconds or so.
The stereo is out of this world, coming from the HK Logic 7, this baby is miles ahead in terms of quality and sound reproduction.
Steering is typical porsche, comfortable and precise
The suspension is very comfortable, especially over our horrible pot filled roads.
I do feel there are some low speed throttle jerks, is this normal?
gas consumption is phenomenal almost as good as our baby C180 kompressor (with a turbo 1.6 litre for 2009) on the highway..I was blown away, almost 8 litres/100km, even with our bad roads, running in period, and bad gas!
My last car was black on black, so the cognac exterior and interio are a welcome change...the matt olive wood are beautiful and even have a nice texture when touched..the wood veins "pop" out...my mom has the same in her CLS 350.
My brother picked up a meteor grey exterior 4s with red leather, and meteor grey painted wheels, and trust me guys, everyone is focused on the panamera! The main comment from everyone "it's okay in pictures, but real life, wow!"
I'm 32 with a wife and 2 and a half year old daughter, so this car is the perfect combination of all wheel drive practicality, space, sports car, and sedan all in one! Complements my wife's Individual Touareg and C class perfectly!

i would take the panamera out for dinner, get it drunk on box wine and have sex with it under the bleachers at the football stadium.
