It's competing with the CLS and the Volante. Its supposed to be that big.

front is nice, side is meh back is ewwww

Deda · 11-22-2008, 05:22 PM

i think in metal will looks amazing!

Los Angeles · 11-22-2008, 05:29 PM

I think if this car looked more like a sedan and less like a hatchback, it would be really nice.

Porsche dropped the ball big time.

I'm sure it looks much better in person.

Still, it should look hot in pics. It's a Porsche!

And yes, of course it will handle great and will be fast and yada, yada, yada....

Aston Martin Rapide FTW!!!!!

They nailed it in terms of design.

Prowess Symphony · 11-22-2008, 05:29 PM

I think its ugly and I dont think it will sell well.

BMWCali · 11-22-2008, 05:32 PM

I think front and rear look great. It's the side that could be improved upon. I wonder how well it will handle compared to their coupes though.

And people said the Cayenne was ugly....

*although, I like the Cayenne, a lot. I think its one of the best SUVs on the market**

Well, this Panamera is almost tied w/ the X6 for ugliest new design.

Those damn rooflines and butts are a tragedy!!!

The X6 has the best roofline in the SUV market. The front is where it's a questionable design. The Cayenne has only just recently been a respectable looking model since the facelift.

The front actually looks really nice. It's aggressive and at least slightly different from all the other models. The side isn't bad, but the roofline is horrible. They obviously did it for resemblance reasons, but I think they should've found a way around making it look like a rocket-hearse. The rear is straight up ass (no pun intended).

Eh, 6/10 compared to the Volante.

The front is nice because headlights are not vertical and it gives the nose a smooth look. Hood detail is also nice.

The rear is SO SO SO bad. I cant believe how fussy the lights are with the white corners. I hate every aspect of the rear right down to the exhausts. The car looks like a pig overall, doesnt look fast at all.

Man, I actually feel annoyed. The Rapide is stunning but I'd still take the Estoque over everything simply because it is so unique and doesnt resemble anything. The Rapide is still a DB9 +2 doors for me. It's nice though, but just not original.

How bout you sketch a car, scan it, then upload it. Don't knock Bangle. It's the ignorant/popular thing to do.

Blake · 11-23-2008, 12:23 AM

resemblance?

josephr25 · 11-23-2008, 02:48 AM

The profile reminds me of Bugatti prototype sedan (forgot the name) like nearly a decade old. Front looks like a C6.

PaulBailey@ltbmw · 11-23-2008, 02:53 AM

Totally Fail!
Porsche was not mean to have a sedan.

vladinecko · 11-23-2008, 03:14 AM
