Post Spied: Porsche Panamera Face-Lift



Spied: Porsche Panamera Face-Lift
The Panamera hits the table for a little Nip/Tuck

The Porsche Panamera has been on the market for a few years, so it seems only natural that the boys from Stuttgart would be working on a minor face-lift for the popular five-door fastback sports-saloon. Our teamspeed spies caught this one near the famous Nürburgring yesterday.

The prototype has a revised front fascia and will likely mimic the all-new 911. The camouflage hides most of the changes, but we can expect restyled headlights and larger LED daytime running lights. Engine options will likely carryover, but there could be some minor changes for improved performance and increased efficiency. We are a bit dissapointed that the rear seems to carry over with no changes whatsoever.

Stay tuned for more soon.

They camouflaged the wrong section of the car

They redesigned the wrong end.

I wish they would drop the whole 5 door thing and just make a proper sedan.

So to clarify, the right tail pipe and the wheels will be interchangeable with the first generation.

Exact same thing I was thinking when I saw it.

It needs an asslift not a face lift. They need to completely rework the rear of the car.

If you are really ugly to begin with, you don't need a facelift....you need a new face.

Yeah, I don't think a complete re-design of the car would be a bad thing.
