    This color is horrible, it looks like a car for a 90-year old.

    Good that you state this RC! I was just wondering how many more pictures of this horrendous color we are going to see.

    I don't like this color either, but similar beige metallic colors are very popular in the U.S., especially California.  Porsche no doubt recognizes this...

    After so many pics of luxor beige in this thread, I'm not sure if that was the colour I've seen. Indeed it looked much more like the one in the pic in the car park.

    Could this be another, special colour? Smiley

    Not really, Lars, but I'm wondering if it was the one I saw at the Panamera last week. The pics of luxor beige here look much too pale for what I have in mind.

    Again, I would not order a car in that colour, but it looked...

    ... interesting. Smiley

    I suspect Porsche specially formulates this color for the China market, those newly mint rich people love gold.

    Hope , this is better  ( this car is totally ' crazy '  - how much it changes ' shape & size '  from photo to photo , must be remarkable in ' flesh ' )

    With the drastic drop in car sales getting a girl for free is not a bad way of sales promotion. If you are in car sales think about it!

    Re: Panamera - Not a good start

    You may be able to get the girl for free BUT it could be a high maintenance cost one ruining what originally looked like a fantastic deal ...

    By the way, Panamera IS NOT a good vehicle for having fun with a girl in the car .... just because of the central console.

    911 or Boxster/Cayman are 1000x times better in that respect.

    Panamera is a Driver's car not a lover's one

    No way Aldo... I'm shocked to hear that. I thought this is Standard? I always expected the car comes as 4 seater and only on demand as 5?  Not that I would need that, in fact for me, as I want to go Golfing with that car a full bench might be better to flip over anyway

     Lars, you have always two seats at the rear. You can just order an extra console (very high at least 20 cm high) in the middle. In this way you separate totally the two rear seats from each other. Standard you have two seats and a mid arm rest you can pull out of the back.

    Thanks Aldo! The most pictures Ive seen so far had the middle console. Its a must I would say!

    The picture above looks stunning, this rear seems to be very comfortable!

    No the rear console isn´t a must. Personally I wouldn´t take it even if it where for free. It separates to much.
