    Although it'a test mule, the shape is obviously finalized. Tailights, metal sheets, flanks (behind the camo panels). It's pretty easy to see it. Put designed exhaust pipes and it should be it.

    It's just so hideous. I know I am going to be disappointed with the final form.

    Re: New Panamera shots

    The very first picture on the forum made me feel very disappointed with the looks of the car. But trying to see the car without the disguised plastics I think the car will look quite cool. I mean it looks wide enough and aggressive, so I think it is better than the Cayenne/

    Well, they didn't set the bar too high to surpass the design of the Cayenne

    So I guess the Toyota execs still have a say at Porsche.

    Can you say Lexus GS?

    Forget about it...the Panamera is still HEAVILY camouflaged, you don't get even a glimpse of the final look, just "slightly" the shape and the size.

    Another hint: Porsche uses Panamera technology in Audi and BMW "camouflage", so the REAL DEAL is actually driving around looking like the competition.

    It looks massive in the side shots and awkward too. Thnx for the pix. I agree with another post, a chopped and channeled cayenne.

    Looks like the bastard lovechild of the Opel Signum and the Cayman, who then decided to give its baby a nose job a la Turbo. Voila! Le Panamera!

    Must've been one hot threesome. Coolant and oil spilling everywhere.
