2010 Porsche Panamera S
In 1923 Ferdinand Porsche moved to Stuttgart to become Technical Director at Daimler, where he assumed responsibility for the development of the famous S, SS and SSK models, while also helping to develop truck and aero-engines, etc. When his contract expired, he returned to Austria where he at first worked as General Director of Steyr. In 1931 Porsche went into business for himself, starting his own design company in Stuttgart. And the rest as they say is history!
What does one do when life gets in the way of owning that road hugging sports car from Deutschland that you've always craved? I have the simplest answer, visit our Hallowed Halls and soak in this consignment fresh through our doors. All the looks and styling of a 911 but with 2 extra doors and ample space to tote along your growing family. Why not check out this front engine 400hp 8-cylinder, 7-speed automatic transmission, family rocket ship with an ample trunk in the form of a 2010 Panamera S. This 2 owner car presents in beautiful condition, freshly serviced by a Porsche dealer, with a few minor faults seen outside and inside. It is mechanically very sound, well maintained, and has a mere 55,235 title verified miles clocked on her. From the minds of German engineers, and the spirit of Ferdinand Porsche a great sports car priced reasonably...Schnell!
Exterior
With the clean lines reminiscent of models that have come before like the 356 Speedster, this car cuts through the wind like a bird in flight. Seams are kept to a minimum, and the ones that need to exist are minding their gaps incrementally well. The entire car is bathed in beautiful GT Silver Metallic. We note a few scratches, chips and dings throughout the body as would be expected of a car this age that has been driven and enjoyed. Xenon headlights sealed in their aerodynamic environment lead the way, and on the sloped rear a speed activated spoiler raises and lowers automatically atop the rear hatch. On top is a factory electric sunroof to let Mother Nature shine all her glory upon you. Big 22-inch wheels with minor curb rash are wrapped in low profile rubber making this car handle like a cat on the carpet.
Interior
Sport luxury would best describe the interior of this sports car. Black leather abounds and has fine stitching holding everything together. The dual high back buckets are power adjustable, very clean and offer up a heated option as well. An aerodynamically designed console races forward towards the dash, has a nice storage compartment, and the leather knobbed and silver surrounded shift lever. A litany of push buttons, controlling nearly everything from the dual zone heater and AC controls to the seat heaters to suspension modes just to name a few, are flanking the shifter on both sides. The dash front houses the large screen infotainment system which includes navigation, an AM/FM/CD stereo, and Bluetooth capabilities. In front of the driver is a cascade of circular instruments, keeping you abreast of all the car's vitals. These are black faced gauges with white lettering and are fronted by the original steering wheel, which shows virtually no wear. Swinging open the rear doors allow us to make room for the family with 2 more bucket seats flanking the long low console which is fitted with heater vents and cup holders. Above, a headliner in black is surrounding the power moonroof and wraps everything up above nicely and tightly, while below clean thick pile carpet down below compliments the interior leather.
Drivetrain
A water cooled 4.8-liter V8 engine with 4 valves per cylinder drives the rear tires. This mill is fed by electronic fuel injection and has a 7-speed ZF Porsche Doppelkupplung, (dual clutch for those not up on their German), automatic transmission backing it up which puts power to a 3.55 geared rear axle. Our consignor notes that this car was recently serviced by a Porsche dealer and was also treated to new vacuum line, a thermostat and thermostat housing.
Undercarriage
All very clean underneath with a mass of belly pans for better aerodynamics keep things looking clean and concise. Slight corrosion is noted but is mostly unremarkable. Red caliper dressed 4 wheel power disc brakes are grabbed by 6 piston calipers in the front and 4 piston calipers in the rear and have anti-lock braking, and this car sports traction control.
Drive-Ability
This car fired right up and had the beautiful exhaust sound that is a signature of Porsche. My drive included some exhilarating acceleration, especially on the top end...it just wanted to continue to pick up speed. It handled very nimbly and was a thrill ride to drive overall. I even allowed my crack decoder some time behind the wheel as I soaked up the spacious rear seating. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
A very nicely preserved example of Porsche technology from 2010. This car has been well kept and maintained and put up after each play date. The interior is barely used looking, and it sports plenty of power to push you into your seat even more
snugly.
