With change comes controversy. Porsche enthusiast may be unhappy with the new Panamera, but we love it. Their new sedan doesn’t stray too far from the company’s design story, but does manage to make a bold leap into the sedan/coupe market. To us, there’s nothing like a sleek coupe. We’ll take a sophisticated coupe over a full fledge sports car any day.

As reported by Autoblog: “Porsche is no stranger to controversy surrounding its new models. In fact, the German automaker seems to thrive on the divisiveness. Some of the cars that purists have complained about most bitterly have been among its best sellers. Much of the same whining heard about the Cayenne and Panamera accompanied the introduction of the front-engine, water-cooled 924 and 928 in the ‘70s, and to a lesser extent, even the transition of the 911 from air to water cooling.” Check out Autoblog’s photos of the Panamera in assembly at Porsche’s Leipzig factory. Even the factory looks appealing. Clean precision at it’s finest. Click Read More for additional photos and information.
