panamera. comin out in 2008 as a MY09 & will be offered with either a V8 or V10, starting in the low 100Ks (125Kish??), i believe...

They have been toying with the idea for years.
|
werrrrrrrrrd...
there is somethin special about the panamera name, but i'll leave it up to someone who knows more than i to tell that story. |
The Carrera Panamericana was/is a sportscar racing event that was held on the open roads of Mexico. It was founded as a celebration of the completion of the Panamerican highway. It was part of a series, called The World Sportscar Championship, that at times included such races as the 24 hours of Le Mans, endurance events at Monza, Spa, Nurburgring, Sebring, and Daytona. Targa Florio and Mille Miglia were also on the schedule at one time or another.
As you can see this race series and a couple races in it had a profound effect on what Porsche named their car models. In 1955 the Carrera name appeared and has been associated with a lot of Porsche race and special models ever since. So, Porsche is carrying on its tradition of naming cars after famous races from the golden age of sportscar racing by calling its new Sedan the Panamera. |
I could learn to live with it. ;)

considering they made an suv, this isnt that ridiculous.
Btw is it just me or does it seem like they are biting off of the aston martin a bit with this design? |

Is that suicide door equiped as well
|
I don't think it looks that bad, besides what looks like the immensely oversized wheels (maybe it's just the angle?) but personally, I think BMW has the 4 door performance car department covered quite nicely.

I don't know about you guys but I think it looks pretty good. BTW...Porsche engineers have envied the RX-8 for some time...
