just received email from my OPC for an invite to the launch of the panamera on 2nd sept, and i only have a 944S and no chance of affording one short of winning the lottery, anyone else had an invite ?

Scotland Region were invited to the launch in Glasgow on Sept 10th and to put on a display of Porsche models.
Especially 928 apparently as they regard it as the forerunner of the Panamera.
Three Panameras will be there.

I got an e-mail invite too yesterday. The only thing I've parted money for at the OPC is a key fob. Mmmmm, are they desperate??

just got back from sutton coldfield OPC, car not as big in the flesh as i thought it would be, 3 cars, S, 4S and turbo, all well spec'd, turbo priced at over £113k, 4S had the most impracticle almost white interior and was showing a few marks already ! in the workshop they had the rest of the range and a lovely guards red 928GT which attracted nearly as much attention as the panameras

I'm surprised the 928 only attracted "nearly as much attention as the Panameras"

Hi All :)

Went to the Panamera launch at the OPC in Bournemouth tonight.....

Nice car particularly the Turbo S....

Matching luggage that fits across the back that when removed would fit 4 x 15 lb Nitrous bottles perfectly :) :)

The back seats fold down forward precisely the same as a 928 lol...


All the best Brett :)

Yup, just back from Nottingham. Panamera is much bigger inside that I thought it would be and was told it was longer and wider than a Cayenne. One of each model in the garage including a "Do not tougc" GT2.

Car park was full of poseurs in Masserati's, endless Pork of all models, couple of Beemers, nothing over 10 years old.......oh and one classic 911SC getting some unexpected attention :shock:
