Hey guys! Just wanted to see if I can get your input.

I decided that it's time for a new car... i'm in a dilemma right now. 2017/2018 Panamera base or 2017/2018 M6 gran coupe? I'm a girl so I don't know much about cars, only that it looks super nice. I've read that the Panamera isn't good for short people since the roof of the car slopes down because of the hatchback. Does that also apply to the gran coupe as well? I'm standing at 5"0... Which do you think is the better car in general?? Thanks in advance!

 

They are both nice cars. It really doesn't matter much what the opinions are of a bunch of car guys on a forum. It only matters what works for you. I think the best advice is to get in each of the cars and spend some time driving. I'm very confident you will prefer one over the other. It could be any number of reasons. Only you will know what reasons and why. Enjoy the process. Have the dealers deliver test cars to your door and let you spend some time. You will end up with a car you love and won't be wondering if you made the right choice.

Good Luck and have Fun!

 

second what Small Car Lover said.

 

@Small Car Lover thank you!!’

 

BMW has more after market support and ability to modify it. If you don’t plan on modifying it nothing beats the prestige of driving a Porsche!!!

 

I had a '18 BMW Alpina B6 GC (600 HP similar/different than M6 GC) - every time I drove it (even after Euro pickup) .. I said, nice car, but not a Porsche. Turbo lag is silly, moonroof only tilted and depreciated STUPIDLY .. the 6 series IMO is a unicorn ... I ultimately sold it for a '16 Turbo Cab

 

Not a direct comparison as I'm talking about my Panamera GTS vs my M6, but it still may be helpful. Check out my post #3 on the forum below:

I'm 6'2" and the back seat of my Panamera provides plenty of headroom FWIW. It's really not fair comparing a BMW to a Porsche. Perhaps compare it to a Mercedes, but a Porsche is on another level above BMW, IMHBAO.
