Smile Track Tested 8 Year old Panamera Turbo

Hi all,

We took my 2010 Panamera Turbo (roughly 40k miles) that I had recently purchased to our track to see if it's really a bad idea to buy one of these heavily depreciated beasts and drive it hard... The short answer is no, it's a great buy, but I thought you'd enjoy the video of us sliding it around our track (second half of the video)


The car had almost every performance option available except ceramics

We shot this about a year ago, and since ended up selling it but there will be more Porsches in the future. I put 12k miles on this car, many of which were done on track, and it held up just fine... Also sold it for nearly what I paid for it! Amazing car, amazing deal...

Have a great day!
Kyle
