Found a replacement for my M6

[Earthmaster]

This is my dream car! Some day! M5 is great so far but getting into a true super fast drivers car would be a dream. Congrats! This thing is so fast out of the box....

I have been eyeing the new Panamera since a year ago, but now at this price I wonder if I should look into getting a base 911..

101K MSRP Panamera, volcano grey with red interior

7K drive off 1400 a month including tax, wheel/tire protection and 20k maintenance.

I drove the Panamera Turbo on the slalom course a few months ago and it felt comparable in power and handling to M6GC. The car felt very long and heavy and there's no way of hiding that. Interior was very opulent. If you're used to the M6 power, the base Panamera may feel underwhelming.

If you're thinking of 911, C4S or GTS are great options too.

That 2.5 secaunch a d the Slalom were heavenly
GT3 sounded crazy hooligan

Enjoy

If you enjoyed the Atlanta Porsche experience, I highly recommend the Barber Porsche experience too in Birmingham.

Got to experience Panamera Turbo, Carrera C2S, Macan GTS, Boxster 718, GT3RS, GTS, Turbo S. 1.2g Launch in Turbo S is giddy crazy. The handling capability of GT3RS on the hot lap with instructor is mind blowing. Oh yes, and they have a serious off-roading course too for Cayenne.

I ended up picking up a Panamera base.. yes it's heavy and sluggish, but the handling still has that Porsche heritage.
It feels good just sitting inside however. I used to get this feeling from my M6 Gran Coupe, but that has diminished over the years.
Perhaps when I sell my M6, I may get the 911 Turbo or Panamera Turbo.
I really need to go to the Porsche Experience Center here in Carson, CA. So close to home!

FYI this is the 9th vehicle that I currently have as open loan on my credit.. I was surprised they even let me have it with my income!

wait...you have 9 current vehicle loans right now? Just curious, how much are you paying per month for all of them combined?

2nd question: How the heck do you find room in LA to store all these? (I assume some of these loans are on behalf of family members? I get why you'll want a SUV, but 2 SUVs?)

haha, OP and I talked, he's running a loaner business. Still don't know how he's parking all the cars, but next time I'm in LA, I'm going to hit him up for a loaner!
