Default Might be the perfect car....

Okay...1200 miles into my lucky ownership, and I gotta say...this car fits like a glove. Want to chill, drive slow to the office?,,,check. Want to get a bit nutty on drive home...check. Want to go all out and hear that motor gurgle...check. From the exhaust bark at start-up, to the way the adjustable seats hug me, to the sound of the motor when driving, to the BOSE stereo, to the handling (41psi cold all the way around) is the way to go.....Just love this car, and am so darn glad I chose it over any other....

Cole, so glad to see that you are enjoying your GTS. I am thrilled with mine, as I have said before it makes my long commute rather enjoyable! I think the GTS is just a perfect blend of performance, comfort and looks. I just wish it had 5 seats, not 4; it sometimes makes my life complicated with 3 kids to pick up. Oh well, it was an excuse to have a Cayenne for winter months and picking up kids.

you're killing me Cole - still can't decide but remember, i have deep snow for a few months a year so ground clearance is more an issue than in FLA - anyway, great to hear the car delivers because if i remember correctly you either did not drive prior to order or it was so short a test that it was little different thann ever having driven it in the first place

I took my car for four test drives before I made up my mind. This is the most expensive car that I've ever bought, so I really wanted to make sure that it was going to do it for me. And it has.

i have driven 4S's and Turbo's but never a GTS. having said that, i know what the GTS means in P - cars.

if i get i,t the first drive will ba as an owner. no doubts at all on the delivery of a great experience.

Test drove the GTS on track last week and it really is the perfect Panamera. I have driven all forms except the turbo S. GTS is my favorite for sure.

Cole - spouse killed the GTS decision.

i was waffling so I brought a P 4 home the other weekend to boot around. she drove it a couple of times but thought they were too flashy & too much attention in town. so there it is and so be it.

would have been an amazing machine but for now still having fun with the "other" GTS.
