for the front and rear of the car, porsche wanted to have the car with a low “sports car” center of gravity… causing the raised fenders and quarter panels… which is classic porsche. as for the rear doors the want the door to be big enough to match the line of the rear seats when you open the door… plus the front needed to meet the back of the front door. less lines/brakes in the side if the body means tighter gaps and better seems ---

The Panamera doesn’t look any worse than the 986/987’s, or Cayennes which are ugly ass Porsches. Certainly wouldn’t buy it if I had the money as it’s not my kind of car but I’d keep it in the garage and drive one if given. I cannot say the same about the Boxsters or Cayennes. Way too much fluff on the inside though. Porsche interior = stick, wheel, and gauges…not “welcome to USS starship Enterprise” ---

So yea, it’s DAMN impressive. Compare it to cars like the Bentley Continental and Maserati Quattroporte and other cars in that class, and this car will beat them all.

it’s not a sports car… it’s a family sedan! people said the same thing about the cayenne and that become the best selling porsche for the last couple of years. the revenue generated from the cayenne helped to fund the development of the new 911.
