Agree 100% with Mike's review. One hell of a car. Exhaust note is intoxicating. And the GTS looks a lot better in person.

Mike, it's not Burmeister, it's Burmester. I was corrected by the teacher at Porsche academy over my pronunciation, sure enough, no 'i'. I agree with the review, I love driving the Panamera GTS, in fact, we all love it at our dealer. What I don't love is the black/black '14 GTS with a PDK issue thats currently stuck in my bay and won't move. First one Porsche AG or PCNA has seen. Lucky me.

Good review. I owned a 2011 E63 and currently own a 2013 M5. I tested a 2014 GTS 2 months ago and I would say that both E63 and M5 cannot compare with GTS at all. This Panamera GTS wins over both Bs by miles in term of handling, interior design, overall craftmanship. I ordered one immediately and it will be arriving in early March!

I liked the review I would like to hear some comparison to other cars in class... How does it stack up against BMW, Mercedes, and the plethora of grand touring cars from the UK/ Italy. I love the concept that Porsche is sticking their finger right in the eye of the sports sedan market... I just wanted to know how close you think they got to making a place for themselves in the market. Or did they just make a splash with another nitch car that will simply become a unique exercise in engineering like the 928 but won't sell volume.

I understand why you'd use studio lightning for showing the car, but I don't think it looks that nice to show all the equipment surrounding the car. It kind of takes some of the magic away, it doesn't add to the composition either. It's like some red triangle suddenly enters the frame from the bottom, but doesn't really do nothing.

A really nice review on a GREAT car! I'm curious to know how Mike Musto feels about the 520 hp Audi S8 which has a base price of $110K (fully equipped close to $130K). Both the Panamera GTS and the Audi S8 are fantastic cars, and they're both manufactured by VW. I suppose the biggest difference between these two cars is not so much their level of performance, but rather their character and personalities. Different strokes for different folks. Mike - Please chime in on this one!!!
@drivebigmuscle808010 жыл бұрын
"but rather their character and personalities"... you hit the nail on the head. You're more inclined to push harder in the Porsche, whereas in the Audi you just want to cruise. Both are extremely quick, well appointed and wonderfully built machines, but with the Porsche you can go directly to the track, romp on it all day, and then drive home. The Audi simply wasn't designed for that kind of abuse in my opinion.
@1xtra29910 жыл бұрын
That's very true, but nothing in Infiniti's line up can come close to the panamera's performance or fit and finish, except for maybe that concept Q car but that's just a concept. It literally does not make any sense how well the panamera handles (4wd or rwd) and when you look at the turbo model the power is even more ridiculous. You gotta pay to play.

@mybikevideos10 жыл бұрын
***** But I find having them attached to the wheel means I DO have to hunt for them when I'm cornering - maybe not on a track but on the real roads going round roundabouts and pulling out of junctions etc you tend to cross your arms over and move your hands to different parts of the wheel. Hardly anyone actually drives with their hands in the perfect position to reach the paddle shifters 100% of the time. If they were mounted on the column and didn't move then you would always know exactly where they were
