I may be one of the few people on Earth who finds the FF to be a spectacular looking vehicle. Having said that, though, it only has 2 doors. With 2 kids, that is a nightmare. Not to mention the cost.

Owning a Cali and CTT, you can surely appreciate the differences between a natural engine and forced induction. I'd wager that it isn't very often you are performing 0-60 runs or pushing the car from 100 to 140mph. However, you can enjoy the SOUND at any speed ... you can enjoy the engine note and the thrill of high RPM grunt even on 1-2 and 2-3 shifts. The PTT and PTTS performance is blistering, without a doubt, but there simply aren't many real world arenas where you can exploit the extra oomph that you would get over a PGTS.

The real world performance/handling gains of the PGTS should easily make you forget the CTT. But with only the V6 as a reference, you should absolutely drive both.

 

This is surprising, Evo Mag says Panamera GTS 0-100mph (about 160.9 km/h) = 10.9s, which would be equal to the CayenneTT. I thought at higher speeds it would drop it. The same (Porsche given?) time I found on the site below:

Not sure where EVO got the first test data on the GTS, but in the above article, C&D has the 4S at 11.0 seconds at 0-100. In that article, it shows the GTS .5 sec quicker than the 4S to 60, so for sure it's better than 10.9 to 100 when it get's tested. I would guess it could be in the low 10's or high 9's when they finally get to test it. Should be soon now...

 

Yes P cars are allways underrated, its made for the track , it will perform. I was just surprised about the manufacturers claim.
