    Paris Auto Show Surprise?

    I am sure I am missing a thread discussing this (I did search for it), but what is the "surprise" Porsche plans for the Paris Auto Show?

    Okay, since I can get nothing from you on the surprise (understandably so), can you post either here or on the Panamera thread how you and enjoying your Panamera Turbo S?

    And always, thanks for your Rennteam work, RC!

    Officially Panamera SportBack will be a concept car. Porsche wants to see public reaction.

    Interesting that the covered car is paired with an early 911, probably a 1965 or 6...

    The surprise could be

    "...a model boasting impressive performance and dynamic looks, exuding unadulterated driving pleasure...."

    ...oh, I just love this announcement for the Cayman R at the L.A. motor show last year.smiley...

    Was that for the Cayman R or the Panamera GTS (which added a bit of irony to the announcement, if I remember correctly)?  Smiley

    Re: Paris Auto Show Surprise?

    ...you should be in a position to answer your question yourself..."the big deal" is, that there are certain rules about release dates / press embargos etc. and the internet is certainly not a closed data room to keep any secrets...so, before (RT) people in the know end up getting into trouble, I would rather enjoy myself guessing what could be in the box for us, for example, in Paris and wait...Smiley
