Crayphile: I guess for a long, fast and relaxing journey on the Autobahn the Panamera is the better choice? The only question I asked myself after the test drive was how it will feel when you are not in race mode. Is it then too much, and not relaxing at all, or will it handle this as well? Also the Panamera has the advantage of not beeing a Ferrari and blends in better as a daily drive, I guess. 

Not really a problem as you would most likely do the long drive in Comfort or Sport mode, and the more raucous engine note will only come in when you overtake. With the dual clutch system these cars will happily stay in 7th gear even at high speeds.
