Porsches 4 door saloon....... interior shots revealed
- Thread starter chappers
- Start date
I've got a copy of Christophorus 335 on my bedside table, and I keep looking at the Panamera. I don't know what I think about it :?:
In some ways it reminds me of the Aston Martin DB2/4 circa 1950s :thumb: , especially the rear end, and also the TVR Grantura of the 1960's :roll: .
Then it also reminds me of a squashed Cayenne :what: , or even dare I say it :wack: a flattened BMW X6 :nooo: .
However if my OPC offer me a test drive I will take it :thumbs: Regards Big Bob :bye:

IMO, the interior is sublime. I think it's going to sway a lot of CEOs in the city to ditch their S classes and 7 series for this new car (I'd have one any day over the competition). I think this will be made in much smaller numbers than the competition and hence residuals will be strong too.

The Panamera will be a much better drive than the Maserati. FWIW will be much cheaper to service too.
I've heard from an insider that the new Jag XJ looks sensational, and has ditched the trad image.
But the V10 audi S8 remains my fav luxojet.

Bob, my guess is if you pick them up in this car, most 6th form girls will do whatever you say!!!!

Hi LOJO given my various skeletal and joint conditions, it will have to go back to the E Type days, ie on the bonnet!

Recognising the other comments on this and a similar thread about "competitors" to the Panamera, I have to say the Maser Quattroporte, is a contender, recognising all the against points, but I think the 4 Doors Sporting Saloon that still has my attention is the William Towns 1880s Lagonda se pic. Flawed in many ways but it was a visual statement.
I'm still tempted to buy one - but it would end up becoming a total restoration project once I got it that I have to hold myself in check!
This reminded me of one on my reasons for being anti Porsche, I was at a St. John Horsfall Aston Martins Silverston Race Meeting when the Aston Martin Bulldog was being demonstrated in the 80's , this was also a William Towns design and you can see the same visual theme with the Lagonda. However there was a raudy group of Porsche supporters there that kept referring to it as the Aston Martin *****!
I found that very offensive at the time, being a consumate Aston fan.
