Got to see the Panamera up close.

My boss drives a Cayenne turbo normally, but had it in for service. His loaner was a Panamera. I saw it through the front doors at the office and thought, "Ugh, it really is bad looking isn't it?"

I forced myself to take a closer look. Its not as horrendous as the pics. It does look aero, and its well built for sure. The interior is very nice, just as nice as the cayenne. It would be a monster of a road trip car, I'd love to do the Tahoe->Vegas run in it.

Its fast, luxurious and seats 4 comfortably. And its not an SUV. I must grudgingly admit that its a very nice car, worthy of being a porsche even. Maybe moreso than the Cayenne.

Do you live in a bubble? Did your parents not let you out?

No no, it is that horrendous.


The ugly tree wouldn't even go near the car. It was already too hideous looking.

There are not a lot of high $$ cars roaming the streets here in tahoe, p-cars are particularly rare. Especially in the winter. I doubt there is a single panamera up here, so what exposure I get is on bidness trips.

I hate it from the exterior but the interior I prefer to a flying spur, very sporty seats and amazing centre console; wouldnt mind owning one but I would modify it with Techart Body kit and wheels.

I still like it a lot. I've seen a few in the area. Dark colors definitely do it favors, though the Yachting Blue looks really good in person.

The interior is gorgeous indeed nut it's safe to say that it's genuinely in the top two of the ugliest cars released on the last five years.

The other one? The new Cayenne.
