There’s Ferrari, and there’s also Aston Martin. Those 12s sound more muscular and less shrieking. BUT, a Ferrari 12 is the stuff of living legend and for good reason. The most outrageous car I’ve ever heard with my own ears in person was, believe it or not, an Audi. Here in Charleston, SC, for some odd reason, I’ll often see cars driving around which are highly praised on car shows, and it blows my mind every time. There are several McLarens, R8s, 430s, 512s, 612s, Murci’s, Gallardos, Model S and X are everywhere and have been since about 2013, so my ears are experienced. The car with the most outrageous sound was an Audi RS7, and it was getting on our majestic Ravenel Bridge, about 1.5 miles long and four lanes wide.I wasn’t even on the bridge yet, and I would have sworn an F1 car had snuck on it the street. An Audi RS7, and it was blasting through traffic like laws didn’t exist, and it sounded like a freaking F1. Unreal.
Never thought I would ever say that a Panamera looks better than a Ferrari, but the Porsche actually looks really good and the Ferrari not so much. They should have used the Porsche Panamera Turbo S hybrid though.

Hey man.. any idea on how the car sounds compares to the direct previous 2015 panamera gts 4.8 v8 na? Did u get urs with the sports exhaust, hows the sound like?
Ashdown SaDingDing sounds really good compared to the 4.8 and yes I did get the sport exhaust option. It will never sound as good as the ferrari NA v12 but I am happy with it. A little less growl than my E63S while sounding a little more exotic than the AMG
Holy smokes, how good a driver is Chris, manages to stop from 160+mph to just a few meters (two?) from the metal pillars at the edge of the sea. That takes a hell of a lot of guts and skill, maybe some luck too. Wow...

@@bradulovic82 Would be interesting to see Catchpole let loose a little. I find Ciro utterly hilarious. I'd keep le Blanc, he's funny but he also keeps it quite 'real'. Why not four? 😁
@@AB-80X The fact that most of the GTC4 buyers have the V12 version (we don't know if it is true, but it is very probable) doesn't mean that the comparision between the Panamera Turbo and the GTC4 with the V12 is fair
Well done guys! Chris is amazing!🙋🏽♂️ The Ferrari is nice, but that Panamera Turbo, boy Oh-Boy is a monster. I got a chance to test drive one. I think it was a 2018 or a 2019 Panamera Turbo. When I was at my Porsche Dealer ordering my Panamera GTS, I got a chance to test drive that Turbo, but it wasn't a Gran Turismo. It was a regular Panamera! That thing pulls like a rocket!
Fran K The lusso is a nice car and has a cool engine, but it is not daily driveable in terms of reliability. The Porsche has a lot more to give and has even 4 doors. The gtc 4 lusso is a car you buy when you already have a Panamera
@@Dan81825 yes they are even more reliable that Porsche in most cases!!! They can be absolutely brutally beaten on while at many many track days and then daily driven without incident!!!
The prices of all these things are horrendous in Aus. A 'stock' spec (a silly concept, but you know what I mean) 911 Turbo is $419,000. I'd hate to imagine what a Bentley Conti GT is.
@@revertedrf978 ok so tell me where the Ferrari is better. Handling? Interior? Comfort? Practability? Alle these Points go to the Prosche. The Ferrari just got more Hp so went a little bit faster😂
Love Harris on the show. Lately he's seemed more engaging and less taciturn. Also like LeBlanc on the show although having an American on the BBC show seems wrong. Probably would love the show if the Holy Trinity hadn't preceded them. Can't wait to see what those three have coming next. Would totally buy the Panamera over the GTC4.
If I had wanted a stationwagon and got the boot in the Lusso, I'd be pissed. It's smaller than in a Golf GTE. Yet it's still a brilliant car and wonderful to live with.

Because it sounds way better than the Panamera

Cause it has a very very nice sounding Ferrari v12
Because the Panamera is built to drive in citys and should be quit tho
I think they needed to compare the GTC4 Lusso with the Panamera Turbo S Hybrid...
Here, the cars don't have the same power
