I got my Turbo S in last Saturday, and then promptly took it out for a few hundred miles.. great car.

 

 

the car has the heated multifunction steering wheel and black interior trim. I'm changing to the sport design wheel and to birch anthracite trim, as well as changing the PSS tires to AS3+. That's it though. It needs a detail to clean up wax build-up and such, but is otherwise in excellent condition. I drive ~90 miles round trip for work, so I just need a reliable daily. 562hp is enough for now

 

60k mile scheduled maintenance complied with!

No "glamor shots" here.

 

 

A Pano owner who turns his wrenches... good on ya!

 

Black Mamba! 😈

 

Thanks, I've been working on my own cars for while now, so I didn't see that changing with a Pan. Now if it's engine internals or heaven forbid the PDK... rip.

 

Ready to roll onto a local cruise. Car can be comfortable and then capable and fast when needed. Great daily driver. And, this is the Turbo S with the sport appearance package which is effectively a GTS. Love the looks and love the power.

 

GTS for the win

you have a Turbo S without the carbon ceramic brakes? I'm envious.

 

There are folks that simply switch to the steel rotors when the ceramic rotors need to be replaced. Nothing like avoiding a $20k brake job.

 

I'm glad mine didnt have them either, I don't track my car so it would be useless to have. However, they look amazing and nothing else says $$$ when you see those yellow calipers. They made it an option prior to the facelift. 2014 and up, carbon ceramic brakes became standard on the turbo S Panameras

 

I've only found one option for cast iron rotors that work with the pccb calipers. Otherwise you have to go aftermarket, or go to the porsche red calipers.

I saw one Turbo S for sale last year that had pccb optioned out. I haven't seen another since.
