Video: Porsche Panamera gets the taxi treatment

If you want to buy a used Crown Victoria taxi in New York city, it'll cost you about $805,000. That's $5,000 for the car and another $800,000 for the medallion. But when it comes to taxis (and almost everything else) New York is generally the exception to the rule – unless you're in Stuttgart and you're hailing the Autobild TV taxi.

The German auto rag apparently commissioned a $132,000 Porsche Panamera Turbo as its high-end taxi of choice, and customers were the ones who got more than they paid for. Hit the jump to watch the taxi-goers as they receive first-hand knowledge of the raw power of the boosted Panamera. Unfortunately the audio is 99 percent German, so all we could do is watch.
