Rory is a most brilliant presenter. And, if James Bond is listening, I hope he selects a Panamera with a gun metal gray exterior, and Black interior :)
This over an M5 any day - more exclusive and better looking. Plus, Porsches over £100k hold their value a lot better than other brands, which lose about a 1/3 immediately.
I wish the styling was a bit more aggressive on the Turbo model. It doesn't look special enough to justify the price IMO, but it's got that cool Q-car vibe. Side note - If we're really talking about an Aston Martin killer... I always wanted Porsche to make a two-door coupe on the Panamera/Bentley Conti/RS7 platform; Way more aggressive, sexy, sporty, wide-body styling with more luxury, space and practicality than the 911... Like a new 948 I guess? I think the Porsche range needs that car to complete it and fill that gap for folks who need a bigger car than a 911, but don't want an 'understated family car' with 4 doors. Obviously they won't make it because it would cannibalise 911 sales (possibly even Bentley Conti sales) and big coupes don't sell like they used to, but it would be my perfect car!
They could make a two door Panamera and call it a 928. It could have even more powerful engines/batteries than the 911 bc it would be more of a grand tourer than a sports car.
I understand but also disagree (not with the 2 door version though, I like that) Porsche, for the most part has always been a understated brand except for the GT Models. I for my part prefer it for a daily drive because it is so under the radar, nobody would ever expect this thing to go 300kp/h+ und the Autobahn.
Porsche Panamera is such an underrated super saloon, my choice over E class, 5 series, or Audi A6. Too bad they cancelled estate version but still love the update they did. And this spec with green and bronze wheels is just perfection ❤❤❤. Rory great video keep it up 🤟🤟😍
To be fair and honest, the 'estate' version wasn't really comparable to an E-class wagon or Audi A6 Avant. Gran Turismo was the correct nomenclature and it was my favourite Panamera shape.
I think calling any Porsche an Aston killer is a bit wrong... Porsche have ALLWAYS made the better car, but , put it this way: Noone "likes" Aston, they ADORE them, and how good the car is never really comes into it, they're just beyond anything else. Brain says Porsche, Heart says Aston, and the heart isn't so easily swained....
"because am man of certain age , I've spent a lot of time recently thinking in this case about james bond , and I've come to the conclusion that Mr 007 Mr licensed to kill , he's been driving the wrong cars" 💥 Best Line in youtub history
The Porsche is technically better in every way, no argument whatsoever. But I don't desire one. I do however desire an Aston. IF they made a 2dr Coupe of the Panamera as a spiritual successor to the 928, I may change that opinion!
JB drives flash cars not to hide his id but to show he belongs in the same circles as the villain he is investigating,turn up at the casino in a Aston Martin and it looks like you belong there lol
PS and horsepower are essentially the same. Both are units of power used to measure the rate at which work is done. * PS is a metric unit of power, commonly used in Europe, that translates to "horsepower" in German. * Horsepower is an imperial unit of power, often used in the United States and the United Kingdom. While there's a slight difference in their exact values (1 PS is approximately 0.9863 horsepower), for most practical purposes, they can be considered interchangeable. So, if you see a car advertised as having 150 PS, it's essentially the same as saying it has 148 horsepower.
Its the same measurment with different units. PS Is PferdStarke which Is the metric measurment. HP Is the imperial measurment. They are pretty similar in value, never really being more Than 10 apart. For example the McLaren 720S has 710 horsepower which Is 720 PS and thats where It got its name. If you want the most accurate value Stick with Kw
I see... Kinda like Celsius and centigrade almost. Never heard if PS before, i just recently managed to wrap my head about KW in the automotive world, now almost every week rory is throwing PS at me. 🤣 Thanks guys!
If you look on autotrader at all used Porsches from 2020 and newer you’ll find that the cheapest cars are diesel macans and the taycan. A 4 year old panamera vs a 4 year old taycan. Which would you choose.
No my friend Bond needs Aston Martin cars to keep up the identity of a globe trotting playboy among the rich.His swag is his cover as an agent.Thats why he drives the best, dresses the best, and dines the best.Thats why he is BOND.
Good God can you imagine trying to repair and maintain this car after it runs out of factory warranty? so many things these days to malfunction or break....
The Panamera is alwasy cool. Comfort and performance. But looks-wise, I like the A7 (I have one) and the Taycan (specially the touring) better. But it is a cool car.

Hey Rory, Aston Martin is not worried about this oversized 4 door VW bettle.
Aston
Nothing is more beautiful than the way this spoiler opens ups
Panamera is one of the most underrated car and sedan. Such a luxury car with sporty handling and lightning fast
Who under rates it?

I Agree FOR NOW!!
No estate version? That was The best One 😢😢😢
It's an oversized 4 door VW bettle
I’m genuinely gutted. I loved that version. At least I can keep my kidneys now I suppose
I agree 100%
Estate is the best one? Apparently sales figures told a different story.
Right? Estate should be the default
Bro really called it a Diseased Brown-Interior and said it handles with Pancake-Physics! 🤣🤣🤣
Rory is a gem!

This thing sounds amazing
Mission accomplished as always Rory! Excellent reviews! I love me this one; need one in my life Asap!
Pierce Brosnan's Bond drove BMW Z3, Z8 and 7 Series.
I think porsche lost their minds when they chose not to do a Sport Turismo of this gen, it was the one to have, not the coupe!!
Sadly. they know too few people would buy it, as they did the previous version
Didn’t sell… I think it’s called insanity. To do the same thing expecting different results 🤷🏽♂️
@@rong8889 thee definition good sir
Dream car is still the Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid Sport Turismo. The list of reasons it's amazing is as long as its name.

Panamera's values drop like stone lately. This will not be different.
This car loses value more than any other in this luxury segment. What are you talking about?
Best fashion and style for any car reviewer ever!!!, ALWAYS KILLIN IT WITH THE OUTFITS
Another next level review. Love the Porsche Panamera Turbo 2025. I'm a photographer for my local Porsche Club and aspire to drive/own one some day.
I wish the styling was a bit more aggressive on the Turbo model. It doesn't look special enough to justify the price IMO, but it's got that cool Q-car vibe.

12:32 that was a cool shot
Mr Bond would have brand issues with that Porsche.
Hé droeve a BMW one’s ! So if Porsche pay’s Lots of€€€€ hé Will driver a Porsche
1:40 The 30% they didnt change is the outside of the car. True Porsche genetics.
Thank you. Except that the previous Panamera saloon (hatchback?) had a rear wiper as an option. However, fair point about the rear camera.
That spoiler though, holy crap!
Is that color Oak Green Metallic Neo? Mine arrives in one month with this color. Absolutely beautiful.
Enough room for Moneypenny and Ms. Galore.😄 As usual I enjoy your reviews so much my guy💪💪
Your reviews are the best and could not wait to see the Panamera one.
Love the Liverpool mention lol💪😂
This is just beautiful. I reckon is the best car ever
You’ve set the bar even higher with this one! Straight fire.
Great review as usual, Rory. However, why no rear wiper option? I think an owner would be very nervous reversing out of a parking bay in the rain.
Saloons tend not to have wipers. That funky rear camera is pretty helpful 🤔
Reverse in, drive out.

Rory kills it always 👌
Can you please test the Panamera GTS. Many Thanks
I'd have to lease and walk away. Lots of potential repairs. Great job Rory
The sports tourismo was the best looking panamera.. and one of the best looking Porsches… it’s a shame it is discontinued
Great colour Oak green shame Volkwagen don’t do it anymore Golf GTI big bumper 16v was a thing of beauty in Oak green
This is the best review i have seen
Pretty amazing work from porsche here gotta give the props!
Brilliant commentary and sharp British humour (compliment from a Saffa)!
The presentation skills 👏👏
This... This was a notch above!!! ✨✨✨
What a spec! Stunning
Awesome Porsche, looks great!
Love your stuff Rory keep it up, joking about the leaf by the way!🤣🤣
That car not tilting in the corners is making my brain fry! 😅
Loved it! That journo at his best! ❤❤❤

2:46 No Rory. They will not be in a jet. They'll be in that Aston Martin that Bond just traded in
Low profile car for Bond? Audi RS6 without badges, maybe even the estate? Thanks for the review.

Is horsepower and PS the same? Bcos i have been hearing him say it but i only know HP and Kw.

* PS is a metric unit of power, commonly used in Europe, that translates to "horsepower" in German.

Thank you for saying Liverpool as favourite team
The Saab 900 turbo was James Bond's personal car in the books 😊
0:40 _Almost like it's an entertainment franchise and not an accurate depiction of MI6_
Me - 🤔
Porsche made a huge mistake not doing a Sport Turismo version. That was the best looking one.
He said: “I also like these headlights, as well.” 🤦🏻♂️
Perfect example of “as well” getting out of control.
Sport Mode is the Mode for me
Panemera is the BEST.
Good God can you imagine trying to repair and maintain this car after it runs out of factory warranty? so many things these days to malfunction or break....
Wondering how this compares with the new M5
"Head back for safety" 👊
The Sport Turismo was actually the one to buy ..
10:52 like the rs6
¿german bond? dude
Fell to pieces when E-HYBRID appeared.Who needs 2 1/2 tonne car for public road use?Only 007 most like.
The guy hiding at the side at 7:03
The Panamera is alwasy cool. Comfort and performance. But looks-wise, I like the A7 (I have one) and the Taycan (specially the touring) better. But it is a cool car.
I recon your eyes need testing Rory, that leaf was not exact match???😂😂😂😂
It was when I first picked it in the morning. It got dried out 🫢
Pretty sure that Bond drove a Bentley in the Flemming novels. Changed to a Saab Turbo in the John Gardner era
i love this car
9:47 😂
James Bond should stick with AM…… The Tycan is far more sleeker than this…..
It is buts it’s electric- no thanks
Less Aston Martins on the road though, James Bond ain’t common either

@@subieasunayuuki ?
🥱 Porsche Panamera. 🥱 It's fast. Lovely. Anyway... The new Honda Prelude 🤩 Can't wait to see them on the streets.
a porsche is inconspicuous???
That's exactly what I thought when I heard him say that 😂
Panameras and Cayennes are common in my poor country, let alone in any more developed country.
Well yes, because they're so unattractive that your mind mercifully blocks them out.
Compared to Aston Martin, yes.
what a ride
It'll be nice to have a techart one
Which Panamera is louder GTS OR TURBO S
7:05 Lowrider mode? Shut up and take my money! 💰💰💰
Your garden oak really isn't an oak tree. I don't think that Porsche will sue for that though.
only 4s, gts and gt(i think they build her) deserve attention now, and base4)
Horrific value for money at £188k…
That's the case with almost every car in that price range.
In 15 years it’ll be 25k, that’s when you buy one of these. 😊
Those who drive a panamera don’t have such money problems. It’s not a car for the masses, those who can afford. Porsche but family
