Man after watching 1 minute of that video I knew peddles would be involved in it's locomotion. Germans have a weird sense of humor. I am German so this is not a prejudiced opinion
I did witness first hand a accumulation of hysterics symilar to this yesterday in Snohomish. A light brown ( baby shizzle?) 4 door Porsche. It looks worse than the US EU ass kissing rags portray. Imagine a rubber 911 encerted into a micro wave oven, after the aproprient amount of softining it was taken out and puled by two 5 year olds with firm grasps on each large appendage ( bumper). No way in hell I would pay more for that abomonation than a I would pay for a conservative appearing Pontiac G8. What the hell was Porsche thinking?
Anyone else seen a Panamerican? |

Dave, if you're going to typo the word pedals, you need to do it in true crew fashion.

Was that the car they featured on Top Gear a little while back? If so, I'm not entirely against it. It is far less ugly than the Cayenne abortion, and it looks like you would imagine a Porsche sedan to. |

I paced a Panamera for about half an hour on the freeway, and despite how totally wrong it looked, the more I stared at it the more right it got.
By the time he got off at his exit my thoughts were that if Porsche really had to make a 4-door sedan, it probably should look like that. Apparently someone at Porsche thought so too. Now they're not so ugly to me. The design just works a little better in person I think, and after a little time to get used to it.
And hey, at least it doesn't resemble the Cayenne.  _________________ 84 Camaro Z28 - LS1/T56

I didn't realize how large those Panamerananeans were. My buddy works at a Porsche dealer in parts and I was hanging out in the drivers seat awhile back and they're enormous! _________________
