I want so much to love it.

I read the Autoblog review of this event and the car is just absolutely amazing. I am hoping the car's rear looks less like it has a glandular problem and more like just a Porsche in real life. I think most cars tend to look better as you look down on them. Too many photos are straight side shots and it exemplifies the rear bulge. If you're standing next to it looking down on it, I bet it is much prettier... at least I'm hoping. The performance and mechanicals are so sexy, I really really want to love it. I guess it took the latest Cayenne GTS for me to finally like the styling of that. Too bad because I know the car is going to be just a joy to drive.

Duh... wheels!!

Oh yeah... and 20" wheels will help balance the stance immensely. Those little wheels just look funny on such a big car. I know they're there for performance so don't flame me... I'm in the biz after all. But when it looks like the car is swallowing the wheels, it is out of balance stylistically and some purposeful 20s (no bling) will go a long way to visually lightening the car and making it look more aggressive.

I fully agree Misha.
The Panamera in Ruby Red is very attractive, especially with those rims.
The only thing I would change in this car is the color of the interior and the type of leather.
I think that a cream interior with the "normal" leather seats would be absolutely fantastic!

yeap definitely. hopefully porsche offers "better" standard turbo wheels than those on there. those wheels on turbo seem too small and look quite cheap(?).

Which ones are your referring to?
From the looks of it there is no "turbo standard" wheel. It looks as one can choose the design (see the dark blue Turbo and the Ruby Red Turbo). the size might be standard, but there is a choice.

still an ugly car. If I need to haul 4 adults, I will get a Cayenne, not this. It wasn't too difficult for Aston to make a true-er "4 door" coupe, the right way. All the proportions on the Panamera are just wrong
