Looks pretty awesome to me, but it seems like most on this board are haters.

Gon fix it with me hammer

the backend looks bloated
if you take the part behind/below the rear window... it could be part of some bland regular car ![]() It's needs liposuction in that part probably had to do it that way for low impact and pedestrian safety regulation... but either way, it ain't pretty

Although it could have been improved vastly, I hate to admitted it, but the darn car is actually starting to grow on me.
Will I be banned now? ![]()

It looks ok... the car is growing on me a bit. However, I do give 5 stars to the road in that video! Where is that?

Looks like a vette from the front. Which is nice IMO.
Sounds like a 928S.

I too don't mind this car. The only real problem I have is that it doesn't have the "wow" factor that so many of Porsche's designs have over the years. As a replacement for the 928, which, IMO, still looks fresh and very cool, it's pretty tame. But I imagine PAG is fighting for its life these days, and if this is another boxster or Cayenne that saves the company, so be it.

When the Cayenne first came out, I really didn't like it. When the Cayenne GTS arrived, I warmed up to the design. Now I am really considering one. Seeing them on the road for a few years really also helped.
I suspect the same scenario for the Panamera. Once I see them on the road I think they'll grow on me. But for now they don't appeal at all. I'd rather have a MBZ CLS.

Nowhere near as cool as the pics that Wayne posted, but I was really scared with some of the earlier shots posted. Appears not to be totally ugly at least.

I like it. I'm not a huge fan of the side profile but front , rear and angle shots are great (to me).

I like it.
Instead of creating an outrageous car of which the design gets boring after a certain period of time, they created lines that do not jump out but have to grow on you. Like I said, I like it and I think I will still be liking it in 30 years. just my two (euro)cents G
