Porsche Panamera: The Plimo


Porsche is spending some serious advertising cash on TV spots like this one. The goal is convince buyers that the stretched-out 4-door Panamera is, in fact, a Porsche. Cool commercial. Cool special Web site with Jerry Seinfeld Porsche vids. Lame Car. And I've finally figured out why I hate it: The Panamera looks like a Porsche 911 limousine. And what could be lamer than that?

  1. you're obviously entitled to your opinion...having said that, I strongly suggest you go drive one, before forming your judgement. The car is pretty much everything Porsche says it is...including being more "green" than any car of this caliber has any business being.
    I've driven it - both at high speed @ Laguna Seca and up and down the Big Sur coast (a 4S at the track and a 2s on the road)
    The car does not photograph well...which I guess provides guys like you with the "low hanging fruit" opportunity to arbitrarily dismiss it as a lame piece of crap (or whatever). Where I come from that's known as a short-sighted armchair opinion. I sincerely hope people aren't spending hard-earned money to listen to it.

  3. All I can say is one word: "Posers!" If you actually owned one you wouldn't have this opinion. When you can cobble together enough coin, go to the dealership, drive one, buy one and own it, then your opinion would actually matter.
