Like It or Pan it

Let's go back to the first post on this subject. The idea suggested was to do a poll that we will all look back on a year later.

My vote is the Pan is a dog. The dealer in Grand Rapids has one on the showroom floor under a cover. With that Matador real end, they should keep it that way.

Stake a claim and make your votes clear.

Sorry about that. The majority of people I've spoken to thinks its ugly. I'm actually amazed as I've asked without giving my opinoin first. I just couldn't wear an ugly suit even if it were a Hugo Boss. Could you imagine everyone thinking "why is he dressed like a clown?" Thats what I think people would say of the Panam -but never to your face. Its big dollar for something that is so visually hit and miss. Im not very popular on this Panam thread but hearing what non Porsche car people have to say on other sites, press and over dinner. I wanted to like it.

I have not heard one person off this thread say it looked good. In fact I searched "Panamera" on Flicker. Read the comments under all the photos. It gives you a good idea what people are saying in the real world outside of a Porsche Panamera Thread.

Flicker photo comments gives a better perspective as to how the general public views it. Its very candid. Specific Threads such as this one are mostly people who favor the vehicle or mark. Not so with Flicker. But also take a look at comments for other cars.

No, I didn't read any. I was hoping you'd spare me the time and trouble.

What is the summary? Bad I take it?

You make a good point about them being a neutral source as opposed to Porsche boards.

Damn man, I'm just asking for your recap since you've spent the time. I just went there and there are over 350 photos, that's too much time to read them all.

that is funny. Not sure I agree with that completely, it is important to see how the public is reacting to this car. If it is that bad, and Porsche have a hard time moving the products. I could wait a little and pick up one up at a good deal. I myself is on the fence on this, there are enough to like, but there are also some issues that I am concern with. For a 100 to 150 ticket, I like to be more sure than I am 50/50. I will have a better idea when I see the parking lot is line up with 5 or 6 of them.

Pan fan

If it makes you feel better, AMC sold 17,752 Mattadors in its first year.

Agree, pioneers wear arrow shirts.

Who want to be first in line for what might be a giant depreciating turd? We are talking some serious coin here, enough to think before leaping.
