2010 Porsche Panamera on Nurburgring

[Tygearianus]

Ok you guys, lets just solve this. YES the Panamera is a pretty ugly car (not that Porsche is known for its great aesthetics). But it is INCREDIBLY fast for its size and yes it does sell very well. It was quite popular in California when I was down there this summer. Porsche will never pull out of the US because without the US buying Panameras and Cayennes, Porsche could never have produced the 918 or the GT3.

[puffrooster]

This is my next car!!

[Doomsdaywarrior]

That camo is so funny looking... look at those rims!

[Lecksell]

kinda looks like an eclipse or 350z if you look at it

[mkgranger]

its here to compete with the likes of other super sport sedans and I think they've done a fine job keeping it a porsche.

[agsdude123]

haha I don't think any of the people cussing out Americans realize that Porsche is in no way influenced by American industry; its because of a partnership with Volkswagen, another German company. Well done, guys. Masterdanoz, go watch some more video game shows and stop trying to act like you know anything about cars. Hows that sound for "spot on"?

[Energonorama]

The USA is now Porsches biggest market by a factor of 2x. This car was built to satisfy Americans, that's why it's called Panamera, after the old Pan-American race.

You folks will happily pay for this car (perhaps due to the domestic competition) but most Europeans think it's ugly and a dilution of the brand.

[agsdude123]

Which is a perfect example of how America does not affect Porsche, due to the fact that both the Cayenne and Panamera are being phased out because of the total merger with VW (the Porsche Club magazine will tell you that). Its a perfect example that although they WOULD sell more Panamera's and Cayenne's in the American market, they are a purely European company, and are returning to their pure sports car heritage (thank god).

[Energonorama]

No it's a perfect example of how America HAS affected Porsche.

They already DO sell more Panameras and Cayennes in America than 911s. In fact that's where they're making their money because the Cayenne's their best seller in the US.

They've just spent a billion euros developing the Panamera, I don't think they're going to shoot themselves in both feet for no reason anytime soon.

Yes it's a purely European company, but one which now exports most of it's products to the USA.

[Klatretoesen]

lol did you guys miss the point where he said: it's covered up in camouflage ?? :D of course it's ugly ...

[aloiske1]

good for the porsche cayenne owners, they won't be any longer the only ones to drive an ugly ugly - damn- an ugly porsche.

[pacarama2k7]

the car forrest gump would drive. they do this for the u.s. market and is not in porsche traditiones

[treestump828]

piece of shit. gone all american on that its not a fuckin porsche. fuck you

[masterdanoz]

spot on - shitty fucking americans thinking they can do something better lol, fuckin shit

[killler73]

First off you don't even know where the word Panamera came from. It has nothing to do with Americans. Second this was Porsche's first failed attempt at a true saloon type car, so your comment is sooo way off of target you should shoot yourself in the head... wait you would miss with that one too!

[masterdanoz]

lol rage on - car is a pos - i have an RSR in the garage, so stfu you faggot, Porsche should stay unique and not try to fob itself off to the Japs as shitty upmarket 200sx type. Even worse new and improved Nissan 240z

[doldei]

i loved your videos of your RSR on your profile ....

[thing503]

lol killer, you're wrong, it was named the panamerica after the panamerican race HERE IN AMERICA. so it obviously does have something to do with is americans.

[mero40k]

omfg pwnt

[kingjimsixsix5]

Looks more like a 4 door TVR than a Porsche.

[XEH16233290]

Sorry, my mistace :)

[XEH16233290]

That's so not the panamera

[clingo316]

In the first 5 seconds he said it was camoflauged, which by deifinition means that it does not look like a Panamara.

[8MunchenBayern8]

M5 is better

[MaximKonyshev]

no, you're wrong

nein, hast unrecht

[8MunchenBayern8]

why?

[MaximKonyshev]

cause BMW have never a chance to Porsche

[chitpaul]

Have seen picture / sketches of this in CAR magazine about 5 years or more ago, much has changed over the years ... but the design is the same old ... take 1, 911 cut it in half, pull the 2 sections appart add 2 doors to the rear glue it all toghether again ........ charge a huge amount for it......may be they had been speaking to the Top gear boys on how to make a limo........... Waste of time and money.

[Fuchizaa]

Porsche engineers are pretty much like Jenna Jameson's plastic surgeon who, in the prime of her beauty and grace, decided to chisel her face into a wasp chewing bulldog.

So yes, this Porsche is a DOG!

[funbuggycaribe]

yes the 928 is a better design than this

[WonDerGirLS0394]

wow way to go kill urselves porsche

[miguelangdl]

please porsche, dont do it, stop the machines, dont do it, i beg you, this is terrible, ugly, horrible, horrendous, i've never seen anything like this, jajajaja i just thought about something, am expecting so much, for jeremy clarkson's review about this¡¡¡¡¡ dont you?

[GTIdancer]

sieht aus wie ne mischung zwischen 944 und den cayenne

[coracka]

it looks like a can of smashed assholes

[rexxxy81]

ive seen in the local rag, it looks like a x between a 911 and a chrysler cross-fire!! Bring back the 928 hehe!!

[ersguterjungeyeah]

at 0.40 it looks like a fiat coupe 20V turbo

[fenixvictorious]

By the way that´s a concept Car so it doesn´t has the final form, the front will change, i think it would be similar to the Cayenne.

[fenixvictorious]

I dont see what´s the problem, if they let the 911 (all the models), and the Cayman i am ok.

Despite this Porsche looks good i think it would be compiting head to head with the Maseratti Quattroporte.

[kza7]

I think someone at Porsche should be fired

[jmls1702]

u stupid fuck the fucking car is ugly ass fuck! not the fucking plastic on the front

[AlexAG007]

I agree, but it`s fast

[herooftheday12345]

Porsche did the Cayenne, the 912(Carrera's ugly little brother), the 924, 944, 914 and so on. Where's the problem with this car then?

[miguelangdl]

please porsche, dont do it, stop the machines, dont do it, i beg you, this is terrible, ugly, horrible, horrendous, i've never seen anything like this, jajajaja i just thought about something, am expecting so much, for jeremy clarkson's review about this¡¡¡¡¡ dont you?

[jmls1702]

made in china????? looks ugly

[mondt]

OMG fucking retard, it got its plastic cover on

[theinneruniverse]

looks like something the current WRX wants to be when it grows up.

This car looks absolutely hideous in camouflage, and I've seen it without the camo (which alters our perception of the roofline, greenhouse, and bodylines of the car) it it looks a LOT better. Barely looked like the same car.

[DavidOnBass]

Seriously he even says that it got hideous camoflage on it... Its ment to make it difficult to see what the car looks like...

[forsteaua]

I couldn't imagine a Porsche ugly utill I saw this...

[blkkueffer]

If it looks like shit, smells like shit, chances are it is probably shit

[blkkueffer]

oh my god it looks like shit

[nazar2007paris]

sucks!! Looks like da new citroens!!! WTF ??

[GeneralHog]

Ok listen up. ITS GOT ITS CAMO ON! Camo is designed to look ugly, that way there is still hype over the car. Nor can anyone steal its cues.

[manuel0850]

i agree very ugly car! why porsche why!!!!

[sjs2011]

looks pretty awful with its camouflage on lol.. but the artist impression looks sexy

[aparadektos80]

UGLY SHIT!

[Iridium725]

You can just google all these cars and you'll get a better idea of what the look like. I googled this Porsche and it doens't look that bad..quite nice actually.

[jinxplaya]

lol when they sell this thing and put a better body on its gona look nice

[blazingcoolM]

ugly car

[amirrozlan]

looks like its going to be U G L Y

like when the cayenne first came out

the back is just wrong.. and looks like a bit of quattroporte in the rear doors

[sean2147]

at 0:15 to 0:19, it sounds like a Lamborghini Gallardo V10, but the exhaust sounds like the 4.8 V8. Wtf?

[jerrylee76]

hideous=understatement

[artie1004]

It looks like a pregnant 944.

[UnreleasedWKR]

The back looks like a 350z

[SkittleLover1989]

hmm. i love the geen hell (nordschleife) drive there every month at least once

[yoman2002]

suicide yourself

[MeachamProductions]

"suicide yourself"

Apparently, the word "kill" isn't in your vocabulary.

[yoman2002]

i'm french, so sorry for the error. how many language you speak?

[moelicious1]

I'm holding off for the Porsche station wagon. I need soccer moms with rich husbands to be able to get their kids to their private schools in less time, so they can spend more time at the coffee shops. Of course this will increase my time in line and I'll be late for work! Woo hoo!

[Arturaskopytinas]

you're funny:)

[IllinoisHighwayMan]

The Nurburgring is nowhere close to the Artic Circle!

[HelmutRanff]

The ring is known as the cold circle

also do you realize this will be the

first Porsche sedan and will be a well

handling 6 speed and maybe AWD?

[ArT2Oo0]

DOUBLE CLUTCH?????????? Thought only 18 wheelers can have double

[xxGxx46xx]

might be a paddle shift double clutch, like a dsg on an audi or golf for example!!

just a guess!!!

[brocky]

Aren't you a bit behind. Dual-clutch gear boxes have been around for quite some time now. Became popular with VW's and Audis and now Mitsubishi, BMW, and Porsche have created their own variants. They all have different names for their dual-clutch gearboxes but they all share the same idea. VW = DSG, Audi = R Tronic, Porsche = PDK.

[akimm17]

says who? you must be clueless. the new mitsubishi lancer evolution X has a dual-clutch sportronic shift tranmission similar to the audis DSG transmission. its basically a manual clutch capable of hold two gears at the same time. almost any car could be fitted out with one

[GRAWpcsucks216]

Maybe they were referring to double clutch as in plates. Some cars can handle up to three clutch plates.

[xtiger357]

wtf it looks so big

[lesmcluffalot]

Kewlios

[bdivy1]

The Aston Rapide is going to make this look like shit. The Panamera will prob handle better though.

[rinkotsa]

LOL, it is pretty pethedic comming from Porsche.

[librano]

pleeeeeeeaaassse porsche make it look good unlike the cayenne...please...

[brownguycarlover]

The Aston Martin Rapide looks better.

[AreuNoob]

nice

[porschecarreragtmay6]

The Panamera GT was supposed to get a CGT engine.

[Mayot22]

they need to take the camo off.
