Well, honestly, it's Russian and you can't trust those guys.

Re the important stuff, I think it is becoming glaringly obvious that Porsche has misdesigned the Panamera. It is far too big and far too heavy. Porsche has always had a design philodophy around being compact, light, excellent visibility and superior usability. The Panamera is as big as an S class and almost demands a driver to allow you to sit in the back. It SHOULD be at a maximum, M5/E63 size, although a little large than an RS4 would be even better, weigh 1650 kgs maximum, have low capacity, free revving V8s (not the lumps from the Cayenne), have no straight lines on the body, have a transaxle layout (ala 928, and Maserati (I know, not the autos)) and have an expensive solution for 4wd like the Nissan GTR with a carbon fiber prop shaft back to the front axle.

It does not. It may have made sense being designed 4 yrs ago, it no longer does. Pull it and releae the right vehicle.
