It's going to be difficult to introduce the Panamera in this economic environment; things were alot better when the Cayenne was introduced. My friend that presently owns a 993 "RS" clone, a GT3 and two Cayenne turbos may be a candidate for one of these, but he likes the pepper-wagon so much, maybe not.

The recent factory photos look far superior than the pre-production shots...it will be interesting to see how the car works in person. I passed on the Chicago Auto show this year because Porsche chose not to exhibit. Had the Panamera been present, I would have likely gone.
