Pretty lame, really. I thought journalists always got out of these things and he was in the middle of nowhere. Oh well.

youd think a reporter would have enough sense to test a car on a track and not the road

I saw one in red with the top down and it looked amazing. I saw one in grey with the roof up and it looked like shit. The exhausts were disgusting on both of them.

soooo much presence on the road, and it looks like the batmobile in black. some guy down my street has a black one and its incredible. the trophy wife in the passenger seat always thinks im staring at her but she's wrong...

I've seen a few but the only time I've ever got the car was on Clarkson's video, "Thriller". As opposed to Michael Jackson's. Every other time it hasn't looked that great compared to the 430, so that says a lot for the Top Gear/Clarkson film crew.

It also says a lot that they clearly struggled with flattering angles to shoot the Panamera from in the new episode.

haha yeah it doesnt matter how good it is ill never want one because its hands down the ugliest car on the market right now and possibly ever. when theyre up against cars like the quattroporte quite how they thought that was a good design is beyond me.

the 599 is the best for sure.

the california is like the offspring of a 599 and turd.

The worst thing about the Panamera is it's just a four door Caymen with a vaguely Corvette front. If I wanted a sedan that looked exactly like the company's coupe offering I'd take that Aston Martin concept any day.
