My .02

Yesterday i drove a panamera turbo and a panamera turbo S, back to back...personally i could not tell a difference between the 2 cars...Lets go over this...the extra hp/tq was not truly notoiced by me and suprisingly the turbo i drove did not have the pddc, or the ptv...the S as we all know comes with those goodies...However on the track, as i never track my cars, these goodies might come in handy. But on the highway, and local streets taking REAL fast sharp turns the car turned on a dime with or without the pddc and ptv.....The sport exhaust, at least from inside the cabin was BARELY noticable.
So what have i learned from yesterdays experience. If my ordered car were still in a status in which i could CHANGE the order, which it is not, i would not have optioned for the sport package and just got the sport chrono plus, and did an aftermarket exhaust (cat back maybe) for more a true porsche rumble and send in my ECU to EVO or GIAC whomever has the best tune to flash on the computer as the do it yourself piggy back i am hearing doesnt net the highest hp/tq numbers compared to the former.

Oh, and if u noticed my post earlier, i drove the Bentley Supersports again and while I DO love that car, the looks hands down over the PTT, and from the drivers chair maybe even driving the B SS...it just doesnt function for me with the tiny rear seat offered in the 11's...and over uneven roads he car isnt as composed as the PTT...It's a beast for sure though but overall the PTT just does it all...
