Porsche Produces 25,000th Panamera

Saturday, July 31, 2010

Polarizing designs and groundbreaking new introductions often result in very strong reactions. If there was ever a car that generated strong reactions, the Porsche Panamera would have to be one of the those cars. Firstly, it drew opposition from purists, who were still bent out of shape over the Cayenne. As for us, we would [...]

Porsche 928 Sketch Leaked?

Here at CarThrottle, we are big fans of the Porsche 928 – and indeed most all Porsches. The new Panamera four-door brings a suitable front-engined, rear-wheel drive platform to the table yet again. Why not use that platform to build a exciting new 928 GT, increasing economies of scale and profit margins at the same [...]

On Lady Gaga, Mad Money and Ridiculous Cars

One morning after breakfast I was browsing through YouTube and I watched Lady Gaga perform at the Brit Awards 2009. She was wearing one of those jackets on top of something that looks like a one-piece swimsuit or leotard. I then started browsing photos of her and I realized something. The realization was that having [...]

Porsche Panamera is Top Seller in the U.S

Often designs that are hated by a small section of the automotive community will go on to be big successes. This has happened with Porsche and the Cayenne. It looks like history is about to repeat itself with the Panamera, Porsche’s first four-door. It has recently gone on sale in the United States and it [...]

Patent Images Reveal Panamera Convertible?

Patent filings are proving to be a good source of information today, with a General Motors filing potentially showing the look of the next-generation Malibu and now a Porsche filing that points to a Panamera Convertible. Last year, we reported that a convertible version of the Panamera was coming, as a way for Porsche to [...]

A New Porsche 928, Rendered

One of the most persistent rumors lately has been the introduction of a new Porsche 928. When the original car came out it was thought that one day it could replace the venerable 911. Obviously, that didn’t work out quite like Porsche anticipated. Porsche has expanded quite a bit since then, introducing the Panamera, whose [...]

We look forward to the videos released by manufacturers for the action that most of them have. Or at least, seeing something that hasn’t come out before. The Porsche Panamera V-6 is new, so Porsche released a video of it. Got to hand it to them – besides a walk around (like Audi and Infiniti), [...]

Delays Result in Free Luggage for 200 Panamera Owners

While derided by critics, the Porsche Panamera has been doing quite well for itself in the only baromoter that really counts – sales. It was reported recently that strong customer response for the Panamera has resulted in over 968 firm orders for the car. Could it prove to be that yet another critically-derided car has [...]

Porsche To Share It’s Platforms

There has been continued reports about the VW-Porsche saga in the automotive press – about the percentage of the stake, the process of VW making the purchase and the like. To me though, from the very moment Porsche’s longtime chief Wendeling Wiedeking left the company it was clear to me Porsche was on it’s way [...]

Like the Cayenne that came before it (but perhaps to a lesser degree) the Porsche Panamera has met a lot of controversy from Porsche purists. There’s no denying the proposition of a four-door Porsche making sense to many. Who wouldn’t want to carry around four passengers in comfort at crazy speeds? To me the problem [...]
