The current Panamera is ass-ugly. Please, do not.

You would be better off going with the new, upcoming Celica

Absolutely love my 2015 650i GC. Just a JB+. Car does not really need any modifications. I do have the itch for an M6 rear diffuser and quad tips however.

Garage List
2022 BMW IX  [0.00]
Here's a look at my cars to date (since 2006):
  • BMW E87 118i 2.0 NA-L4 - My first new car. She was fun but troublesome. Spent as much time at the dealer as in my garage.
  • Fiat Palio EL 1.2 NA-L4 - Just a runabout car in my family. Was the go to when ever one of our cars were was in for repairs or maintenance.
  • Jaguar S-Type 3.0 NA-V6 - My first love. I wanted one of these for the longest time. She was written off when I guy t-boned me.
  • Nisan Almera 1.6 NA-L4 - Another one of our runabouts.
  • VW Passat Sportline 3.2 NA-V6 DSG - Pretty awesome car. Reliable but thirsty.
  • Mercedes-Benz W211 E320 3.2 NA-V6 Avantgarde - Awesome car. Reliable, fuel efficient and fun...if a bit old school.
  • BMW E39 540i 4.4 NA-V8 - Bought her, fixed her up a bit, sold her for a profit.
  • BNW E64 645ci 4.4 NA-V8 - Great drive and my first foray into retrofits and coding. Traded her in when the seal between the roof and windshield frame started leaking.
  • Mercedes-Benz C219 CLS550 NA-5.5 V8 Airmatic - Pretty awesome car. Plenty of power and comfort. Sold her after one of the Airmatic struts failed (and cost me $4000 to replace)
  • Jeep Grand Cherokee WK 3.0 TT-V6 CRD Overland - Reliable, fun, frugal. Loved this car. Only sold her because I was made a killer offer.
  • VW Touareg 4.2 NA-V8 - Boy, what a money pit this one turned out to be. Eventually drove her to one of those cash for cars yards and got rid of her.
  • BMW E65 LCI 740i 4.0 NA-V8 - She was wonderful. The N62 had mild valve stem issues, but regular oil maintenance kept it in check. Did plenty of mods and retrofits on her.
  • VW CC Sportline 3.6 NA-V6 DSG - My first car in NZ. Japanese import. Ran strong. Traded in on a new Tiguan.
  • VW Tiguan 2.0 TT-L4 TSI - Only my second ever new car. No issues whatsoever. Plenty of tech and toys, but ultimately boring. Traded in on the the 6-er
  • BMW F12 650i 4.4 TT-V8 - My current daily.

I'll keep an eye out for you Hugo! I'm in Penrose for work each day and do plenty of driving around during the day.

Nice one! I'm not out and about much during the day but I won't be hard to spot. Hardly any 6-series convertibles around Auckland. There's a mint 850ci that parks in the Britomart park though. She is quite nice to look at :-)
