Sad for Porsche but great for your BIL.

There's a silver Panamera parked outside my office every day now. I have to say it's probably the least impressive looking car for that kind of money I've seen in a long time. It will not age well. I don't think the Panera looks like it's even in the same big dollars category.
Right next to it is parked one of the R Jaguars. Now there's a looker. James Bond's publicity agent made a good choice. I'm sure if a DB9, which has arguably the best sounding engine start ever, made an appearance it would blow the 2 others away. Granted the Panera is the best performing, but it's still a GT and that's not a car you buy for 10/10th's hard right handers. If that's your priority (big, heavy and decent in a turn) then you need a Carrera Turbo. But the DB9 is still better looking.
