Anyhow it looks like a Cayman but flattened. Big surprise. I'm interested to see how gauche the spoiler comes out.]]>Jun 24th 2007 7:14PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/06/24/reader-spy-porsche-panamera-on-the-405-freeway/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/06/24/reader-spy-porsche-panamera-on-the-405-freeway/Jun 24th 2007 6:04PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/06/24/reader-spy-porsche-panamera-on-the-405-freeway/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/06/24/reader-spy-porsche-panamera-on-the-405-freeway/Jun 24th 2007 7:59PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/06/24/reader-spy-porsche-panamera-on-the-405-freeway/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/06/24/reader-spy-porsche-panamera-on-the-405-freeway/
Nonetheless, kudos to Herschel and Autoblog on this one. I never would have expected a Panamera roaming around in California.

Good call, it's a 330i that I picked up via Euro Delivery December of 05. I was on my way to a golf game and almost lost it for a minute, same green mule I had seen on World Car Fans months before. I have made it a habit to carry my camera in my car at all times as that's inevitably where I see interesting stuff.

Glad I could snap them and share. It's going to be uniquely Porsche when it's finally shown and I think that's a good thing.

a porsche has rounded lines and a heavy, rounded rear, and that does not work for sedans. Aston Martin, on the other hand, has the perfect, straight lines that gave birth to the stunning Rapide. That was a natural development. The Panamera is not. I really want this to be an amazing car, but I cannot imagine a Porsche sedan.

If it does lose the visual heavyness of the rear, on the other hand, it will no longer look have the classic lines of a Porsche.

This isn't looking good, I must say. ]]>Jun 24th 2007 8:02PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/06/24/reader-spy-porsche-panamera-on-the-405-freeway/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/06/24/reader-spy-porsche-panamera-on-the-405-freeway/Jun 24th 2007 8:20PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/06/24/reader-spy-porsche-panamera-on-the-405-freeway/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/06/24/reader-spy-porsche-panamera-on-the-405-freeway/Jun 24th 2007 8:23PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/06/24/reader-spy-porsche-panamera-on-the-405-freeway/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/06/24/reader-spy-porsche-panamera-on-the-405-freeway/Jun 24th 2007 8:33PM
