Porsche Thinks The Press Is Way Worse Than Bloggers
If you signed yourself up for updates on the development of the Porsche Panamera at the automaker's minisite, you may have already received a packet of super secret advertising containing expensive ultra-glossy "first official images" of the new Panamera. It also contains what we assume is an unintentional backhand at the press corps.

Porsche Panamera GT: In Love, Indifferent Or Incensed?
The first official photos of the Porsche Panamera GT have caused quite a stir, though some would argue that stirring feeling is limited to the stomach area. With a growing four-door sports car market, Porsche clearly made an effort to differentiate the Panamera from production models like the Jaguar XF and concepts like the Lamborghini Estoque. From most angles there's no mistaking the production model from a Porsche, with the design picking up many of the brand's most important cues. Is that a good thing, especially after the lukewarm reception of the Cayenne by design divas? Are you in love, indifferent or incensed at Porsche for stretching the brand yet again? More »

Porsche Panamera Official Photos, Details
Photos of and details about the Porsche Panamera GT, the company's first modern effort at creating a four-door sedan, have officially leaked all over the web and it looks exactly how we expected it to look. From what we can gather from Google Translator and Auto Telegraaf, the Panamera will first hit the shores in Panamera S and Panamera Turbo trim, each fitted with a 4.8-liter V8 putting out 400 HP and 500 HP, respectively. Both will also get Porsche's PDK 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox.Though no diesel version is likely to see production, a 3.6-liter V6 option good for 300 HP and a V6-electric hybrid are in the works for sale at a later date. Given the sedan's unique look, the production numbers seem quite optimistic. UPDATE: Full press release after the jump! More »

Porsche Panamera Spotted Continuing World Tour With A Drive In Arizona
At this point, who hasn't caught a 2010 Porsche Panamera gallivanting about somewhere in the world? Porsche seems determined to test the car absolutely everywhere before releasing it to the public, and here we see it speeding along the Arizona I-10 in Phoenix. Honestly, unless someone bags one with the "ha-ha we fooled you" pudgy body removed so we see a car that doesn't suck, then it's not a surprise anymore. Still feel free to keep sending us pictures of your encounters, like these of the interior (the only part of the car which doesn't make us gag), whether it be at a Bennigan's in Iowa, a truck stop in Belarus, or a ramen joint in Tokyo. Just pick a spot somewhere, doesn't matter where in the world, eventually a Panamera will drive by. (Thanks for the pics Sean) More » -

2010 Porsche Panamera Interior: Maverick Approved!
The newest spy shots of the 2010 Porsche Panamera show an interior that just taunts you to do your best Maverick impersonation, surrounding the driver with an F-14 Tomcat-like bevy of switches, toggles and knobs. The radio and navigation controls appear to be operated by the console's touch screen while the leather-wrapped three-spoke wheel is actually devoid of any buttons besides the Porsche-DSG thumb pads. All in all, it's familiar yet upscale — we'll just have to wait to see how well-integrated the technology is. [Teamspeed] -

Four-Door Porsche Panamera Spotted In San Francisco
We saw a fake p-shop of the Porsche Panamera the other day (again), the official mini-site's live and we've even seen a teaser shot straight from Porsche. But now, what we've got here is a failure on Porsche's part to communicate to their engineers the need to strap on some camouflage. Thus, here's some of the clearest shots we've yet seen of the four-door super sedan from the German automaker. The Panamera was spotted by Flickr user Hysterical Bertha prowling the streets of Russian Hill, looking for potential customers among the affluent residents of the tony San Francisco neighborhood with some very crooked streets. Yup, it's definitely the Panamera — it even looks like the concept sketch. Well, except for the fact the sketch seemed to indicate the Panamera was made out of pencil lead. Our older spy photos of the new four-door "Bruce" below the jump. (Hat tip to Cord!) More » -

Top Ten Coolest Super Sedans Ever, And None Of Them Are New
Lately, a few brands have been defining their own modern interpretations of the super sedan, with efforts like the Aston Martin Rapide, Lamborghini Estoque, Porsche Panamera, and even the Fisker Karma. The problem is they all feel a bit vulgar, lacking the cool factor of super sedans in the past. But before we can define what a super sedan is, first we must define what an ordinary sedan should accomplish. More » -

Porsche Panamera Minisite Goes Live With Teaser And Tag Line
The Porsche Panamera minisite has gone live and, aside from the above — an advance teaser commercial — it has a concept sketch of the car, a shot of the nameplate and the marketing slogan: "Four, uncompromised." We assume this will be the marketing direction the folks from Stuttgart will take as they pitch the first-ever four-door Porsche automobile. The video is interesting in that it seems to acknowledge all of the negative press and complaints about the concept of, well, a four-door Porsche. If you want to add your details to their data mining campaign or see the video in full size, head over to the Panamera minisite; otherwise, we've pulled down the teaser images and dropped them below the jump.

Porsche Panamera Sedan Teased, Tuned By Roock
This shadowy image of the 2010 Porsche Panamera comes via 4wheelsnews, allegedly from tuner Roock Autosport.It's only the second time we've seen the upcoming Porsche sedan without any camouflage, and we can definitely see much more of the actual car than the first official teaser from Porsche.Though it's not clear exactly what has been modified on the car to turn the Panamera into the Roock RSP 555, but we're sure hoping that's not what the Panamera will look like stock.Turns out, this is just a rendering done previously for Top Gear. Make the jump to see the original. More » -

Are Four-Door Supercars An Easy Way To Make A Buck?
So the Lambo teaser images were for the Lamborghini Urus, a four-door concept car on it's way to the Paris Motor Show. The bovine Urus, the latest in a string of four-door supercar production or concept cars joining the Porsche Panamera and Aston Martin Rapide in the realm of the more-than-two door uber-cars. With seemingly every premium carmaker in the process of making a concept or production supercar with four doors, we have to ask: is the four-door supercar just an easy way to make a buck? More »

Porsche Panamera Official Teaser Hides The Ugly Parts
This is the first official photograph released of the 2010 Porsche Panamera Gran Turismo, and while it's obviously just a teaser shot, they certainly have done a good job at selecting which part of the car to tease with. The big sedan from Stuttgart may have a handsome face, but we're reserving judgment until we can see its bloated body. We're thinking if they had released a teaser shot of just the back end sticking out, more than a few pre-orders may have been canceled. More »

2010 Porsche Panamera Caught With Its Hatch Open
The excruciatingly slow striptease in which the 2010 Porsche Panamera is engaged has taken a big step today, as this is the first look we've gotten at the car with its rear hatch raised. We see a car loaded up with test equipment and displaying several features visible via the open hatch. There appears to be no power open and close mechanism in action here (thankfully) and it seems the rear seats fold flat permitting a huge cargo area. Also, aft of the front wheel there seems to be a fender detail which could be a styled fender vent reminiscent of the Porsche Carrera GT. Absent still are a comely design and brand self-awareness.

2010 Porsche Panamera Interior Is A Sea of Sexy Buttons
The slow, agonizing, bloated, excruciating march towards the Frankfurt Motor Show unveil of the 2010 Porsche Panamera continues unabated, and now we get a pretty good peek at the interior. The Panamera is expected to cross into the six-figure price range, and the interior we see here seems to stand up to that speculation. Leather, tons of buttons, big touch screen, stylish three-spoke steering wheel and Porsche's DSG transmission: all present. We'll just have to see how our bellyaching stands up when the front-engined four-door super-sedan eventually shows up. [AutoCar] -

2010 Porsche Panamera Threesome Spotted At Denver Airport
Thanks to a vigilant reader and his handy camera phone, we've been tipped off that there are a trio of lightly camouflaged, Georgia-plated Porsche Panameras out and about in the Denver area today. This terrible trio was spotted at the Denver International Airport, indulging in what will be common for the cars once they hit the streets: picking up popped-collar Germans at the airport. What we find most amusing in this set is that they're at the airport, with luggage, which goes in a trunk — and yet, no trunk action. Interesting. More » -

Porsche Panamera Stars in Suspiciously Convenient Spy Video
Two minutes of drive by and street level video seems hugely suspicious to us. 'Oh hey! Look I'm standing in a field in the German countryside and look what happened to pass by - 3 times - a Porsche Panamera.' 'Hey Dieter, what's that over there opposite the corner we are standing on while you videotape traffic?' ' Why Udo, it appears to be the much anticipated Porsche Panamera, imagine our luck.' We're not buying it. This close to its unveiling at the Geneva Motor Show and two solid minutes of footage comes out? We smell marketeers. And no, you aren't seeing things. Yes that is a trailer hitch, thus signifying the end of days. -

Ooh, look — a viewer of the video site that's all about living Daily in the Fast Lane happened upon a very green-looking 2010 Porsche Panamera over in Marina Del Ray, California.

Of course, only if you'd like to gag at yet another look at the winged hatchback sedan. Of course if that's the case — check out our previous shots of the German beast below.
