2012 Porsche Panamera 4dr Sedan (3.6L 6cyl 7AM)
105 of 108 people found this review helpful
Really great car, shockingly so. It's a very comfortable 4 door sedan, decent headroom, comfortable, usable seats, both front and rear, smooth and quiet ride, nice interior. At the same time, it has absolutely unreal, incredible sports car handling. The only car I've ever driven that handled the road as well as the Panamera was a 360 Modena. But that was a very noisy 2 seater, you could feel every bump on the road, difficult to get in an out of, etc. Amazing, they basically took a Ferrari and made it pleasant to drive, with virtually no degradation in performance.

This car is very sexy. The lines are gorgeous and I feel like a million bucks when I drive it. The handling is wonderful, sport mode makes it even more aggressive and more of a racing feel. I love this car and could not be happier with my choice. I was looking for a high end luxury sports car that could still handle 4 passengers. There is no other car quite like this. I drove the Tesla and the Audi as comparison vehicles. The Tesla felt speedier, but not nearly as luxurious and the Audi while possibly more powerful felt like a fuddy duddy on the overall styling. Love my Panamera!!! Update- i’ve Now has my Panamera for about 6 months, I use it as my daily driver. Every time I get in this car, not kidding- every time, I think to myself or say out loud “I absolutely love this car”.

First Porsche. Overall this car is an exciting car to drive. The interior is reminicent of a jet cockpit. There are many "hard buttons" to access features which may seem daunting at first. However, everything is logically placed and easily learned, and makes feature selection much easier than drilling down through computer menus. I have a mixed review on performance. Once the car is rolling, it is superb. However, there is a big catch in my opinion. When pulling away from a standing stop there is a sort of stall/lunge sequence that almost throws you forward then back in the seat. My dealer tells me this is a known issue and likely not resolvable. If so, this is a deal killer.

First Porsche. Considered and drove several times the following: E350/550, BMW535/550, Jaguar XF, Infinity 37/56, Audi A6. By far the most fun to drive was the Panamera. A bit more expensive than most on the list but the most unique on the road. The competition is common on the road. It is fun to get the looks and the thumbs up from many. The V6 has ample power compared to the V8. Been getting over 23 mpg on combined city/highway with average speeds of around 45 mph. This car is a bit sluggish right off the start but it really picks up once you hit 35 mph. Getting from there to 60-80 is a breeze.

This is my fourth Porsche vehicle: Boxster, Carrera, Cayenne, and now this. All Porsche, yet all different. The car is deeply impressive and engaging. It compares favorably against cars costing twice as much, or more. Handling, cockpit features, design, power, etc. -- all top-notch. I think the Panamera is now the one to beat in the 4 door sports luxury category. Most people would be concerned that the V6 would be less-than-powerful. I drove both this and the S model, and came away preferring the V6 -- lighter, more nimble, and the engine was more responsive than the heavy V8. The looks have been criticized, but I don't see the problem -- the car looks drop-dead gorgeous to me!
Among the best! If you don't like the design - see it in person!

Got my brand new Panamera a week ago for my birthday! Traded in 2011 Z4 Sdrive3.5i. Have to say that: Panamera handles and takes turns WAY better that a roadster that was intended to do that better by definition. The car is very adequately powered, feels incredibly light for it's size and the interior is a killer! You get the feeling of getting into a jet cabin the second you step into it and that feeling never leaves you through the whole ride! It's not too soft (especially on 20" turbo wheels), yet road bumps do not bother you whatsoever. Very luxurious and unique. Test drive it and you will stop looking...

Good car. Super fun. When working it is great. Frequent very expensive to repair. Not a daily driver after about eight years old and sixty thousand miles. I live 53 miles away from my job and do not trust it to go to work daily.

This is one great car. Basically, a four door sport car with strong acceleration and precise handling. The four wheel drive really pulls the car through curves. The double clutch transmission makes almost instantaneous shifts when using the paddles. The cabin is strikingly attractive and very comfortable. I found the touch screen communication system very easy to learn and the Bose sound system is awesome. This car elicits attention no doubt. I've had multiple people take pictures of the car and many others asking questions. If you are looking for anonymity, this is not the car for you.

Over the last 13 years, we've had a 2011 Pani GTS 4 and for the past two years the base Pani 4; get the AWD no matter what model you choose. Bought both used with less than 40k mi. My other two cars are a 2006 Corvette 4 LT GS and 2019 Audi RS 5. While the Pani 4 (V-6) is not as quick as the other two, it rides, corners and handles better than the other two. Got it for travel trips for the cargo room, ride, handling, visibility and @85k miles, if we keep it under 80, we still get 30mpg Hwy! The styling is unique to a 4 door and I've never met anyone who didn't like the car. Only minor repairs (head light washer pump-which should just be eliminated as it's unnecessary) and maintenance. The new models are just improvements to a great original car. Nice to see the base is now a turbo charged V-6. Will eventually get another low mileage used one. Dave n Holly

I purchased this car from the dealer brand new with 20 miles on it nearly two years ago. With all the features such as blacked tail light covers, 360 camera views, 20 inch wheels etc. the car is a looker. About a year ago I start the car to go to work and I get a transmission error. The warning says the car is driveable but I call the srevive department immediately! I notice the car won't go into 3, 5 or 7th gear. So I basically limp to the dealership for service. Two days later I get it back and I was told it was a software and transfer case issue. All is well or so I thought. Last week same scenario. Start the car, warning light again. I call the dealer, limp to the dealership get in my loaner and leave. This time I get a call they have to replace the entire tranny! !!!! Ok, now I'm upset. Almost 200k on a car with 27k miles and the tranny goes out twice?????? Again, I'm the original owner and all service has been performed by the dealer. Now it's time to reassess my intent on keeping this car!! I've owned various luxury Marques to include, Mercedes, Jaguar, and Lexus. Not one of them needed a new transmission! !! The 2002 S Class I owned had 14 miles on it when I bought it. I kept it for 9 years and put over 180k miles on it. The biggest expense I even had was replacing the front end suspension and that was due to normal wear and tear. How does Porsche get away with being called the most reliable and well built luxury car when their famous PDK transmission failed twice in less than 30k miles??? Having a conversation with my lawyer at this point.

Panamera Sports Sedan

After looking at the 7, A8, S550 and XJ, the Panamera 4 was the clear winner. Not only does it drive like my '09 911 4S, it has Sport and Sport Plus options to remap the engine and suspension. Pictures do not do this car justice, as the subtle curves that are Porsche design elements just do not show. The interior is outstanding, clearly the best of all the cars in this class. The cockpit feel and the multiple adjustment seats with ventilation are outstanding. This car just feels great. This is truly a Sports Sedan
I still look back when I park it

Regular Panamera 4, fully optioned minus sport exhaust. Car is just fun to drive, incredible for road trips. Still get comments from strangers in 2020. Yeah, Turbo would be nice, however the base models are still very engaging. Quality is top notch. Been very reliable for me over the years.

My initial attraction to the Porsche Panamera was its unique styling and rareness on the road. After less than a year of ownership, I had buyer's remorse. The transmission switching gears is prominent both in acceleration and braking. In comparison, the Mercedes-Benz and BMWs I've owned in the past have been silky smooth. Like both Volkswagens I owned during my youth, this car has electronic gremlins. Upon starting the vehicle, the climate control changes its settings at will about once a month. Every three months or so, the radio will not work until you turn the car off and start it again. As of 2017, my car only has 25,000 miles, yet things are breaking left and right. The horn stopped working after four years. The trim on the driver's window switch broke off. The passenger window switch is cracked. On a positive note, the car is roomy inside.

Just sitting in this car raises the hair on one's arms with it's dazzling interior! When you start the engine, the cockpit envelopes you and your passengers into a quiet and subtle road handling experience. Having owned other well known luxury sedans, sports cars, SUVs and researched even more models, nothing comes close to this hill-grabbing, incredible corner- taking, quick-stopping, fuel-sipping and heart- stopping chariot. My second Porsche, the Panamera 4, maybe the last vehicle I ever need to buy.

I've owned this car for a week now and it has surpassed my expectations. I was a bit torn on the design but everyday I grow more fond of the looks. I tell you, it looks fantastic in your garage. Handling is amazing, power is abundant and the interior is as classy as it gets. My wife has had several people come up to her and compliment the car. The Porsche dealer was great and the whole Porsche experience has been worth waiting for for my 40 years.

Wow, don't buy one of these unless you want to shell out $3,000 a year in unscheduled engine repairs. I just had to pay for my third such repair, on a defective valve cover solenoid. Before that, it was a complete replacement of all the ignition coils; replacement of all practically new spark plugs; and a whole bunch of additional repairs for other engine and non-engine components. I'll never buy a Porsche again! And I'll be getting rid of this one at the earliest opportunity.

We've been through many luxury cars, Lexus GS350, Mercedes CLK 430, CLK500, BMW 335I, BMW 535i, Audi A6 and to our opinion, none of those drive like our new Panamera 4. They are either too soft or too hard and none of them beats the comfort and the handling of the Porsche. We only have a few hundreds miles on the car but we can feel that the build quality is way better. The seat comfort, audio system and ride are first class. With the V6 at 5.8 secs from 0-60mph, it's not the fastest car but it's adequate for passing. We will update after a few thousands miles.
Wow, No disappointment here!

We purchased a 2011 Panamera 4, after looking at a Cayenne. There is no comparison, this vehicle is a home run. The vehicle is White with Beige interior, and you can't take your eyes off of it. You will turn heads on the highway, and it performs like a Porsche. Once inside, you know that this vehicle is a luxury sport car.
Great car!
