I really like this package. Congratulations Super Darius and Lucas, great choice.kiss

Well RC, the Panamera has the same engine with even 420 PS, is that too much in your opinion? 

Cheers.

It isn't exactly the same engine, there are some differences in details but the Panamera doesn't need more than the 420 hp because it is the last facelift of the current generation.

If the 3.0 l Macan engine version would have been that OK for 450 hp, Porsche would have used it for the Macan Turbo as well. Smiley The Panamera 3.0 l with 420 hp has been, according to rumors, some sort of "provisory" solution nobody really felt happy with. The next generation Panamera S will very likely get a newly developed small V8. Smiley

True, you're right, the application is for sure quite different. Well even the V10'of the R8 and Hurracan are different, although they have the same power output. Back to the V8 in the Panamera S sounds really great, so the differentiation between "S" and "Turbo" will be probably reduced to the turbochargers application, right?
