Goodbye RS6, hello Panamera Turbo

I traded my RS6 in and picked up my Panamera Turbo last week. It was bittersweet, as the RS6 has been one of my all time favorite cars. The PTT is amazing however. You might notice I completely debadged the rear of the car.

Congrats!!! The RS6 is an impressive machine, but these Panameras arent too shabby either. They also turn heads unlike any car I've seen before.

Enjoy making her 'your own'.

Congrats. I think you will find this is a far superior replacement for the Audi. I like the carbon interior.

Bluetooth interface
Rear camera
Universal Audio Interface
Sport Chrono Plus
RS Spyder wheels
Delete model designation
Carbon fiber interior
Sport seats
Diffuser painted
Rear apron painted
Carbon fiber door entry guards
Heated steering wheel
Rear interior lighting package
PDCC

And of course.....floor mats!

The car is amazing and garners a great deal of attention. I have received more comments in a week on this car than in a couple of years on my 997 TT Cab.

Thanks for the comments. I am loving the car. I have about 700 miles on it and have not driven it very hard yet, but that is coming soon. I am not waiting 2000 miles as per the "break-in hints" in the owners manual.

I ordered the car with "Delete Model Designation" (a no charge option) and I removed the "PORSCHE" myself. I heated the letters with a hair dryer and then used dental floss slipped underneath the letters to remove them. This left a little adhesive residue which was easily removed. It was about a five minute job.

Thumbs up new to the forum

Hello all,
I am new to the forum and glad to see that there are so many other car fanatics like me. I got my first porsche last year a 09' C2S with PDK and all the goodies. Anyway my wife wants a Pan Turbo so I went to drive one at the dealer yesterday. Per the speedo I was accelerating much faster then my C2S but it lacked the feeling of being pushed back in my seat. It handled like my car but was quiet smooth like a lexus even with the sport suspension set to stiffest. I was very impressed except for the lack of feeling the torque. Cant wait to get one, probably not for another year though.
