Porsche Panamera
So today, Tuesday, it is an unexpectedly lucky day. A good
friend of mine who has returned from Melbourne for a short break called me
during breakfast, if you have read the previous post on the Panamera he was the
one who owned the white Panamera which we got busted by a speed camera. It was
very kind of him to drive me yet again in his Panamera while we were hanging
out and catching up.
This time I paid closer attention to the way the car
performs. I am not sure what model this
one is but it is a naturally aspirated (I believe it is a V6). Even though I
have gone faster before this car’s acceleration really stuns me due to the fact
that it is a really big and heavy car, I will admit I was trying to hold my
bladder each time my friend floors the gas, the excitement does physically draw
things out. Most of the Panameras I know in Kuching are pretty quiet even if
they accelerate fast but in this Panamera my friend got the sports exhaust.
Bless him! I mean what is the point of a fast car when you don’t have the
noise.
The guess the only thing I am still not used to is the
number of buttons on the center console, having so many buttons makes it feel
like as though we are an actual speed rocket which probably what Porsche was
trying to make us think it is. On the good side the buttons are not messily
placed about and they are easy to press and despite being rather sophisticated
it does look to impress. It is elegant and very posh.
It was fun; the only sad thing was the traffic and the fear
of speed cameras which slows us down. Hopefully one day I could get the chance
to test drive a Panamera. I’ll be sure to bring up a review on that.
