20.000 units p.a. feasible (they say).

Re: Porsche pleased with Panamera orders
but the interesting thing is that is NOT what Porsche's PR on their wesite says!
Here is the actual quote:
"For its market introduction on September 12 in Germany, the Gran Turismo will initially be launched in 3 variations that will be equipped with a 400-hp V8 induction engine or with a V8 biturbo engine with 500 hp. Porsche is planning to sell an average of around 20,000 units of the Panamera over the entire lifecycle."

Re: Porsche pleased with Panamera orders
I still don't see who will buy this car. You don't drive children around like an F1 driver, so the performance is useless. All other high-end sedans look much better.
I only see novelty and and maybe viral marketing helping. IOW some alpha celeb/cultural figure owning one and starting a trend.

In traditional Europe and USA sales are expected to be normal IMO.
But I expect the car to be very popular in eastern europe and Russia in particular, and in Asia. It will open up a whole new market for Porsche there.

Re: Porsche pleased with Panamera orders
The Panamea will become a great success.
Guys - we are ahead of the next bull phase, big cars will be fashy again from next year on. The Pan will be the car to have, wait and see! Even myself, I still struggle with the rear view, but overall the car is great. And if Walter Röhrls words are true and the car really behaves like a 911 it is a no brainer getting one!
