Panamera

I'm looking at trading out of my 996 tt for a Panamera. I want a 4s or turbo with most if not all the opt, my question is is there anything I should be on the look out for?
In the market for a 10/12 any help or advice you guys can give I thank you

Go drive both - the power of the Turbo is intoxicating.


Only real must have is a rear camera I believe.


Good luck

Bought my 4s 8 months ago. Had all the options loved it. About 3 months in started paying attention to the turbo posts. And what gains they were getting realities easy. Needless to say I just got my tt 3 days ago and when I drove it was a big difference. Can't wait to tune and all the other goodies. Definitely a rush. Save the money and get the turbo u will be glad u did. Wish I would have

I think PDCC + PTV are standard on PTT, but not 4s. Can anyone confirm?

Either way, you will want to look for a car w those handling options - the Panamera is much bigger and heavier than a 996. PDCC +PTV make it feel like much smaller in twisties.

Agreed - PDCC is great to have on such a large vehicle.

Thanks guys I have found 2 turbos that I am working deals on right now. After the advice to get as much as I can now I stoped looking at the 4s and just focused on the TT with all the options. I drove both and like both but for what I am going to pay I may aswell get the TT for a few $$$ more. Thanks again I will keep you posted

From my understanding the "rear options seat H&C, Air control, adjustable setting" are what they note as the "EXC" but with the 14 they also have the extra length now I maybe wrong but OH well lol still HAPPY
