Well not have but it is definitely what I am setting my sights on as a goal in the next year or so.... The Porsche Panamera...All I can say is OMG!... It is a 4 door but is pure sexy.

Just got back from LA on a biz trip and my friend and soon to be business associate let the wife and I borrow his for a night out and all I can say is wow... I am not one to jock a car, but this one.. Man... If any of you guys are into Porsches or whatever you have to test drive this one.

Hey N8 that's great! I just got back from a family weekend in LA and we parked next to a Panamera Turbo at dinner one night. I'm not sold 100% on the styling, but if you're after the baddest four-door ever made, this has gotta be the one.

Did it happen to be black and over by Rodeo (Santa Monica Blvd)? Dude was getting us into some exclusive shit all week. But yea man, this gotta a brotha wanting to get his grind on extra hard in 2010. I mean I could possibly get one right now, but I would be hurtin...lol. I wanna get it and be able to enjoy it.

Someone had a post about what car to get. I would suggest this one. MFs was wondering who the hell I was pulling up in it. People were crowding the car taking pictures and shit. And I was parked next to a canary yellow Rolls, and they were still jockin the porsche. Honestly I am not a ttention whore so it was irritating, but people was on this car.!

It was pretty dark, but it looked like it was a dark blue color. It was on Woodman between Moorpark and Ventura. I can't really see that car getting a whole lotta looks, to be honest, except for the fact that maybe people were like, "What the hell is that thing?" That whole area is just ridiculous in terms of every 2 or 3 cars being a benz/BMW/lexus. I actually saw a McLaren Mercedes roadster driving in that area over the weekend too - first time I'd seen one of those on the road.

That being said, I'd love to go rip around in it if for no other reason than it is a turbo Porsche. I don't know your financial situation, but I'd expect someone would have to hustle pretty hard for a car like that. What's the list price?

Not going to be a popular opinion, but for the first time I saw a ZR1 at the Chevy dealer down there, and THAT is a car I'd love to own!

I would look at the caddi CTS-V that car would blow the porsche away

I'm not sure about that. I think the Panamera Turbo does 0-60 in 4.0 seconds. Either car is impressive for a four-door...

yea it is my friend got his for just over msrp (about 140k). I just got to get on my grind a little harder. But after driving that, driving a mustang is a disappointment unfortunately.
