2013 650xi Gran coupe vs 2010 Porsche Panamera Turbo

Hey guys,

I currently have a 2013 650 xi gran coupe with 76,000 kms and have come across a 2010 Panamera Turbo with 93,000,kms.

Am I an idiot for wanting the Panamera? Would any of you make this move?

if cost isn't a problem, it sure would be a much more interesting ride, wouldn't it?

Just don't know if it's an upgrade or a downgrade. 3 years older and 20k more kms.

It isn't a whole lot faster, just a difficult decision lol

The Panamera should be the better driving car. Faster and much better traction, that is if the reviews are to believed. Traction has always been a word to describe Porsche. My first car was a Porsche (guess which one). Great cars, but along with traction you get ridiculous costs that add up. Before I bought my first BMW I compared the Z4 to a Boxster. The initial price was comparable, but the insurance and service were out of sight from each other.

The engine in the Turbo is a brute, but I would be leary of owning it 10 years old which is coming fast.

No. Buddy of mine has. 2011 turbo FBO Giac tune and intercooler upgrade and when I had my 2014 550xi with Ecu tune and downpipes I was faster from 0-150(by 2 cars) and from a 40-150(1.5-2 cars)

Over rated. BUT handling is a different story. It fucking hugs the roads!! Excellent ha fling compared to our boats.


Is it worth It? No way.
If you want to switch up my advice is RS7 or M5/6.
