They look much better in person. I'd like to pick one up in about 10 years when they're $4500

Looks like someone put a Dodge Magnum and a 996 in the transporter device from "The Fly." Bet it's a hoot to drive, but I couldn't get over the way it looks for that kind of coin. Maybe Motion is right, wait a few years and then buy one to drive the jeebus out of it.

certainly giving the Ferrari FF a run for the money...in costly ugly cars.

I could care less if they are a technical tour de force...so what.

In 10 years, they'll be trading under $20K.

You mean a recycled design?

You'd prefer a four door 911?? ( and you would not complain about their lack of creativity??)

Kudos for Porsche for actually designing something new. (even if it is not for everybody, it is a very succesful car.)

If you really want a Panamera go to Carmax. I was amazed at how much they depreciate- in two years they're losing half. Which says a lot about what they're really worth.

I went to Carmax and found that the cheapest base models were going for 50k. It was a 75k car so more like 2/3rds. I would consider buying one if it was half price.
