    Looks like most of the camoflauge that was on the hatch found in other spy pics is off on this one.

    The rear and the rest of the car is still covered up with fake panels but less before.

    Nontheless I'm thrilled as hell. This is going to be one hell of a performance sedan smoking the M5, E63 and RS6 off the road.

    already posted in this thread, but I agree these photos merits a thread of it's own . I'll just quote myself into this thread then:

    Do you surmise that those front intakes could suffice for requisite airflow for twin turbochargers?

    BTW: just spotted that the car is equipped with a very unusual option for a Porsche - must be the version for our Dutch friends

    Thanks a lot, Ron. Great finding. These pictures allow people to actually look "beyond" the camouflage, very good shots. Thanks.

    Re: New Shots of Panamera

    Still curious what's so special about that rear wing that they keep it covered with cloth. I never saw them doing that with a GT3 or GT2 mule... Can anybody shed some more light? Is it a retractable wing,or not, etc.

    Re: New Shots of Panamera

    surely retractable wing as is standard today on virtually all P cars, esp somethign as conservative as a sedan, a GT2 fixed wing would look dumb imo.

    Re: New Shots of Panamera

    Thanks Ron, you can start to see what's under the camo now.

    And I have to say that I am not too impressed so far. Especially the rear end looks just...boring
    It doesn't really have a distinct rear end, it just ends

    I hope it will improve with the camo off...

    Camo or no camo, the design is still not impressive.

    Re: New Shots of Panamera

    I must say that the first on I saw I mistook for an Aston Martin of some sorts. The BRG paint probably had something to do with that. The nose initially appeared longer, and I must say I thought it was be a tad better looking than the current crop of photos seems to show. I drive by the Porsche tes centre on a regular basis but have yet to see it there. I've only seen it on the road between the tst centre and the 'ring.

    Looking forward to hearing it at full song up Dottinger Hohe though, as it sounded great on the street.

    Well that's what the camo does, hide the design.

    Re: New Shots of Panamera

    Based on the pictures I'm hopeful that it'll have a unique looks to it, I hope.

    I'm just hoping that It'll be competitive to RS6, M5, and E AMG not A8, S, or 7er.

    Did anyone see this one before ? the rear wing is gone.

    Re: New Shots of Panamera

    There's something about the back that's making the car not flow that well together...of course it's still camo'd however I don't think the back would be as smooth as I was hoping.

    I still laugh at saying Porsche Sedan lol

    Re: New Shots of Panamera

    starting to look like a "car".
    I have read in auto motor sport, that the panamera will be the first 4 door sedan with a rear spoiler, that comes out at 120km/h.
    Man, I cant wait to see the final looks of that car. I am sure it will look very special.

    Re: New Shots of Panamera

    Very nice find, Ron. The front is still heavily camouflaged but if you look VERY closely to the rear and pay a lot of attention to details, trying to see through the camouflage, you get a pretty good idea of the final thing... The rear camouflage doesn't "work" too go on this colour.

    Hope the disguise is deceptive, otherwise it looks as nearly a good a styling job as the Cayenne

    This is ancient!
    This is off a Spanish web site, and its a projected view of what they though the Panamera will eventually look like.
    It was based on the first spy shots:i.e with very heavy camo.
