We bought a new base Panamera last year to replace our Cayenne Turbo. I was really torn about buying a new base vs used turbo and finally decided to buy new base with all the options we wanted. 0-60 in the base is about 5 seconds. I remember when 5 seconds was supercar territory but I constantly see folks on the Panamera sites telling other potential buyers how disappointed they'll be if they don't get the turbo! To me, the base is plenty fast on the street plus it's the lightest model.
