Found this, finally. Not very excited to be honest.... Not sure its better. To translate: Seems v6 bitrubo and plug-in hybrid are comming with around 400 bhp and a v6.

The Turbo front end has some of the Sport Turismo in it, so not bad. But the base/hybrid Panamera front is a bit too tame for me. Sort of a Maser GranSport feel.

As for the rear: meh... Those new tails look like they are directly related to a VW Golf/Tiguan/Touareg.

Porsche could of...make that SHOULD of...done better here. The Sport Turismo had some fantastic design features in it. Almost all were passed up.

 

Have to see it in the flesh to make up my final opinnion, but things like dropping the signature turbo cloverleaf leds...I love them. The turbo front end is better, but overall so far I like the old one more.

 

Front end, I don't care compared to the GTS. I'm trying to like the rear end because it's currently so bulbous. Not sure if the new one is an improvement. But if it is, it might just be a couple thousand dollar bumper change.

 

It's on the official Porsche site. http://www.porsche.com/microsite/panamera/usa.aspx?ws=1



Turbo S is gone, replaced by Turbo Executive, a long wheel-based. Base and GTS got a 10 hp bump. S and Turbo gets a 20hp bump. There's now a front camera option as well as up to date safety system found on merc/bmw which are useless. There's a 1-3k price increase across all models.

Executive rear seats

 

Interesting. At first glance .....i like the current turbo/GTS front end better esp the LEDs around the turn signal lamps. The executive version is intriguing. The space is nice, but not sure how it will impact handling and looks. Will have to see the stretch version live. Maybe the airport limo drivers in the US will start driving them since the old Lincoln Towncars are out of production Net net, glad I got my GTS in 2013.

 

'Executive version'? That's what the Panamera line needs - a bigger car...

 

Break out the wine and cheese! It (executive version) is the new Maybach! The only thing missing is the umbrella in the door .... now that would be sweet

 

The new 3.0L V6 420hp seems very strong, are they going to use it for 2015 Cayenne S facelift? It's a good fit for Panamera but not sure about SUV...

 

Bummer about no Turbo S (yet?)...

Will there be a Sportsdesign Kit?

 

WOW, lucked out getting the 2013 turbo S!!

 

When do the face lifted cars start to show up at dealers?
i'm in the market for a used 2010 turbo but will wait till these hit dealer lots.
thx in advance
