FIRST GLANCE - Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo

- Опубликовано: 16 окт 2017
- Porsche Centre Portsmouth invited me to the unveiling of the new Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo and I thought you guys would like to come along. The Panamera is a superb car anyway and I think this estate/shootingbrake version is actually better looking than the standard car.
Practicality meets Porsche sports car performance. I can't wait to drive it and will be bringing you a full road test in the very near future.

The fact that you have so much in common with myself in view of cars is scary Peter. You are gifted in that you are invited to functional events, very much in awe of you fella. Keep up what you do. I look forward to the day I am lucky enough to meet and say hello.
I'm sure we can sort that out Buddy !
Very nice. Love the styling!! Pete, next time you get an invite for these events have me as your +1😆
Liked the original but wasn’t so sure about the rear, however I totally love the new version and the Sport Turismo is even better looking! Stunning!
I totally agree mate. The ST is a proper looker :-)
Great vid bud hope u are well. Look forward to the driving video
Hopefully later in November :-)
Was never sure of the Panamera but this beats looks lovely...gutted I couldn't make my appearance I was invite VIP to the london launch!
Great video Mr Ped, make a big step up from my A6 but for 3 X the price! Love the bigger boot, just right for those blasts to the South of France :-) in my dreams.
You could get lots of wine in there !!
Sport Turismo; nice.... but as soon as soon as you showed us the GT2RS followed by GT3RS and than a 911R!!! wow....Porsche heaven..
:-)
Couldn't help myself !!!
Peter You know you can take medicine for wind😊 Love the Porsche Brand this is a beast , when are they lending you one 👍🏁🏁 better still they need to lend you the Gtrs
My wind has dies down now ! Hopefully their demo will arrive late November. I'm working on a GT2 RS but don't hold your breath !
Hey, 1 minute 55, did I hear the presenter say 'shooting brake'? That's a blast from the past. Haven't heard that name used for an estate car for years. Love it. I hope they bring it back. Very beautiful car Peter. Love Porsche. Jon.
merceded have one too - its a sloping back estate.
Jag have their new sport brake coming too I guess so a bit of a buzz word at the moment
My father had a Hillman Hunter Shooting Brake....I love the name too :-)
Good video Peter, my invite to this event must have got lost in the post lol
:-(
That blue one looked lovely. Porsche are really making a wide range of models now to get people into the brand. Would I take one over a Cayenne ?, probably not, but this is very tempting. So are you going to go for the same review format when you get your hands on the demonstrator as you did for the RS5 ?
I'd love to but it depends how long I can get it for.
Panemera as a second car (for the missus), yes please.
Maybe in a couple of years. I've got my Audi SQ7 to contend with first.
First world problems ;-)
More Porsche content please Pete 👍🏻
OK :-)
Greeting from the street vault in York buddy. Me and kate having one for ya
Nice insight Peter. Shame the guy presenting from Porsche in the first part of the video was super dull at reading his script, reckon you should have got that gig, much better delivery and passion for sure! Roll on the demonstrator...
I actually want to get into doing that kind of thing :-)
If I could afford one I'd order one tomorrow. I doubt it's easy to park up in multi storey and supermarket car parks in the UK, though.
It's a big car but easy to live with than a big SUV.
Blue Turbo would be my choice, I slightly prefer the GT over the standard body Panamera
It was a lovely colour !
That GT-2 does look sweet. Deep dish wheels.
It was stunning !
I have say Im not too fond of the original Panamera, but the Sport Turismo is a beautiful car. That rear end is gorgeous. Forgive my ignorance but what is the difference between a Estate and a Shooting Brake? I seem to recall reading that the Shooting Brake name goes back to the 19th century and was in reference to a 2 wheeled cart used by hunters. Is there a difference between a Estate and a Shooting Brake or is it just a umbrella term for what we call over here across the pond, a station wagon?
Over here the most common word used for this style of car is 'estate'. If you go back 20-30 years 'shooting brake' was used by a few manufacturers but fell out of favour. So they basically mean the same thing. You are quite right about the origin. It a British word dating from the 19th century describing a vehicle used to take people shooting.
Loving those 911s!!!!!!!!!!! GT3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ♥ :¬p
What was that thing at the start? Can't remember.
LOL !!! I couldn't help put those it :-)
Love the Sport Turismo design. But struggling to see why - if you want space for long family travel, good cruising in all weathers.. why you would go for the Cayenne? Apart from the stying, this (imo) has no practical advantages over a Cayenne.
It has no practical (or performance) advantage over an RS6, which can be bought for 2/3rds the money....
stubones Or a SQ7 ;-)
I guessing some people aren't keen on the SUV raised ride height and form factor ?
I'm so lusting forward to seeing the review this one Peter. Shooting brake sounds a bit too American for me. Shame the guy dressed in the country threads was so boring to listen to, a bit more enthusiasm on his part was much needed. The workshop was, oh yes please !!
See you soon.
Cheers,
Geof
It should be a great drive. I think 'shootingbrake' originates this side of the pond.
As much as I love the idea of owning this car, I can't see how anyone would benefit from spending 50% more to own this over an RS6 performance, which has more power and more boot space. The new version of the RS6 will be even more powerful, will feature Audi's latest technology, interior and still undercut the Porsche massively. I get that the car is aimed at people who have money to burn and would take the Porsche brand over Audi, but it is literally just spending money for the sake of it. I still want one :)
Or your could buy a Ferrari GTC4 Lusso which does the same job but is twice the price of the Porsche !
come on, gtc4 is much more advanced from the rs7 / panamera.
The speaker at the event has no charisma. Mono tone reading from the dull literature! At 0:58 is that what a modern porsche owner looks like? I dont want to be mean but from the footage it looked like there were no "cool" or stylish people there. I think a lot of customers these days are antisocial car nerds that think a fun car will make them look like a fun person. The amount of people wearing shooting jackets that don't shoot and specific running shoes that dont run, they want a porsche to finish the facade to make them appear to be interesting people. I love the marque but its a bit depressing. Great video and very informative, Im interested how it compares to a macan. Im surprised they didn't supersede the panamera with the macan.
I think it will be a great drive :-)
PP - If you... Sorry.... WHEN you review the Sport Turismo, please, please make it the Turbo and not some dull (By comparison only) diesel.
They are lovely cars though. Porsche are also more than just looks and go. They have reliability too. I recall watching some Yanks in the 911 Turbo or Turbo S and they did 50 launch controls, one after another without any hitch or hiccup what so ever. Imagine trying to do that in another make of car!!
Now the Turismo is out, it begs the question.
Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo Turbo.
or
Mercedes Benz E63S Estate.
3.6 v 3.4secs to 60... Or just buy one of each!!
I'll see what I can do. When I drove the new Panamera it was the 4S Diesel and I have to say it was SUPERB !
Generally speaking, any Porsche is either good or going on great. But the Turbos. Well.... What can you say? High time to self Catheterise yourself before you get into a Turbo Porsche because you know, as soon as someone floors the go faster pedal, little pit of pee is bound to come out.
Still not sure of them. Been in one as a passenger, yes, very nice, but when I look at the ‘rugged’ stance of the Rangie Vogue, I kinda think yeah, have it for off road fun and the RS for “ holy poop, I’ve just left my kidneys at the traffic lights”!
That car is just pure sex - luckily for me, everytime my wife suggests having sex I say
"i'd rather have a beer" - I would pass on a beer for that car - I can offer no higher praise than that - DREAM CAR end of
You like it then ?! ;-)
lame hahahaha
horrible man
