' 2015 / 2016 Porsche Panamera Turbo ( 970 ) ' Test Drive & Review - TheGetawayer

The Porsche Panamera is a controversy. Much like the world of KZbin car reviews. Here's why I like it ...

three things that are always guaranteed with a Getawayer upload - engaging commentary, clean photography, and awesome audio. you are in a minority when it comes to capturing pure engine sound without it being drowned out by a rush of wind noise. good work Guido and thanks.

[@TheGetawayer]

+altern8ive I'm very glad you enjoyed it ! Still room for im improvements, but I try my best :)

[@ONE-jj5eo]

Great review. But what really stands out for me is the way of camera angles, polarizing filters and video processing. Well done, buddy!

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Great review Guido! Always beautiful shots and a very professional review. I guess I fall into the category of reviewers that borrow a car from a dealership and can't drive haha but in the day I spent with the Panamera Turbo, I loved it. Amazing handling (from what I could tell from my lame roads lol) and really exciting acceleration (for the short bursts allowed here in the states). Whoever doesn't like this car is crazy, the looks are controversial but the performance overshadows that in my opinion. Keep up the great work Guido!

[@TheGetawayer]

+subaruwrxfan I remember us driving way faster than 35mph when we filmed your STI review and that was a great road we drove it on :) Not refering to you by any means, my friend ! Thanks for the postive feedback. Hope to see more Porsche reviews from you very soon, Matt !

[@MattMaranMotoring]

+TheGetawayer Thanks Guido, hoping to receive cars from Porsche USA next year!

Awesome review, Guido! Lot´s of interesting thoughts that put the car in a whole new perspective. You also managed to capture the sound very well, makes me feel like I´m standing on the side of the road listening to this monster flying by at full throttle. And it sounds soo nice, love the huge crack on upshifts :) great work indeed. Cheers André

[@TheGetawayer]

+VQSeries Happy to hear you enjoyed it ! Thanks ! :)

[@scottoconnor3484]

Guido, nice review. Many of the comments indicate that viewers don’t understand the Turbo’s sport exhaust. With the “sport” exhaust engaged (by switch, or automatically in Sport and Sport Plus mode), a motor controlled valve opens up at the end of the exhaust system, opening it up to breathe better. What you hear on these passes in the video is in Sport Exhaust mode. In comfort mode, the car is quiet. I have this same car, a 2016 Turbo. I have installed a fabric air filter, 200 cell downpipes, and an FVD tune, and now have over 600 bhp. What was already an impressive car is now a supercar. I love it. It would be fun to have a 911, too, and compare, but there is only so much room in my garage!

[@TheGetawayer]

Thanks Scott! I remember this car being fitted with the factory optional Porsche sports exhaust, which I believed was priced at 3000 or 4000 Euro. So definetly not a standard exhaust, but OEM. I try filming all footage in "loud mode" to get exciting audio for you viewers. Glad to hear you enjoy your car, I sure love this generation of the Panamera :=) - Guido

[@dirk23thebest]

Great job as usual. I like the lean style you are taking. By the way, the interesting fact is that are the very regular Porsche owners that are teasing the Panamera, mostly about her look and design. To me, it's a great car, not the prettiest but as you said she has an important presence, not only from the outside but from the inside too, very very well made and something exotic in a way that amg, m or rs cannot achieve.

[@willembezuidenhout5254]

This is one of the finest Panamera reviews I have seen. I like your approach. You obviously know your cars. (Unlike the funny guy who hates Porsches and punches producers.) I will check your other reviews, as well.

[@911sebastian6]

I´m totally agree about your impressions of the Panamera Turbo Guido! Driving the Panamera GTS and Turbo the first time when the facelift launched over a year ago, I was absolutely blowed away by the driving performance of these car and how much confidence it gives while cornering on very small backroads. You completely forget that there´s a massive car with more than 2 tons around you. In my opinion the Panamera is a class of its own and that´s why I love these car a lot! Keep up these excellent work!

[@TheGetawayer]

+911sebastian Thanks buddy ! They really drive shockingly fast on a back road :)

You, XCar and Petrolicious (I know each of these are different) are ruling youtube "independent"/"non-magazine" car reviews! Congratulations for keep such high quality and even improving over time (other day, I was watching in nostalgy :) old videos)

[@dkvikingkd233]

This is precisely the kind of car I would love to own:)

[@findingrush]

I found this car revolting when it first launched, I know Porsche is not known for their designs, but I could not understand what was going through their heads when they designed this monstrosity. Later, I had the opportunity to drive this car in the GTS trim and the rest is history, it felt like a bigger 911 that was practical. I never thought I would prefer the Panamera over an M5, but I honestly do after getting to drive it. The looks also grow on you, once you tick the right color and exterior appearance options, especially in the GTS trim. Thanks Guido, for a great review once again!

[@TheGetawayer]

+MrHPJunkie I fully agree. In my town there's a black one, no model badges, blacked out with 911 Turbo II wheels and yellow pccb brakes. That's a stunning looking car imo

[@larsoestergaard2247]

Great review, which I have watched a couple of times. I have had the Turbo 2014 for more than 3 years now and you are absolutely right about it being a drivers car and going around corners like a sports-car. For me it is s sportscar that I can drive on a daily basis, I can bring my family and even my dog along for longer rides and that is where it is better than a two seater - you get to enjoy it often and together with others. Thank you for taking the time to do a proper test drive and share it!

[@TheGetawayer]

Glad you enjoyed the review and even more this fantastic car, Lars! Safe and fun driving :) - Guido

[@frankiealas1]

[@Sweetblood777]

I just love this car but it is beyond my price range. I have also seen invoices for repairs on these cars and they blew me away. These cars are obviously made for the rich. They are also made for Germany's very fast highways. Here in North America one cannot really enjoy such a car due to the low speed limits.

[@williamscott7763]

Great review Guido! Can you review the new Cayenne GTS with the twin turbo V6? I would love to hear your comments in comparison to the V8 you reviewed.

[@TheGetawayer]

I didnt know Panamera makes so good noise! That V8 rumble alone makes up for that peculiar rear design this car has. Great video, really liking the colors and superb sound capture.

[@TheGetawayer]

+lebacco The Performance Exhaust did its magic here :) Well worth the 3000€ I'd say :D

[@Salubrious101]

Excellent review, I have a Panamera Turbo 970 model and your description of the car is extremely accurate, even more so for the series 1 model as its not as refined visually as the 971 is and has looks only a mother could love. The capability of the car, build quality, and performance is breathtaking. As a former BMW guy who hot bored if his 7 series, I'm so happy I chose the Porsche over an F10 M5, it's not about horsepower, the panamera Turbo is truly greater than the sum of its parts and I'm only just scratching the surface.

[@TheGetawayer]

I appreciate your positive feedback, thank you!

[@TheGetawayer]

Thanks, most of my films are shot between Frankfurt and Heidelberg in the Odenwald:)

[@craignelson5689]

Awesome video as always Guido. As for the fact that "nobody sticks around for 50 minute in depth car reviews any longer", it's a true shame. A lot of people out there will never get the chance to drive these beautiful machines the way you do; even those of us who are shopping for them can hardly get such a good impression from a test drive. Any chance you could share those more in depth thoughts either in a separate "uncut" version of the review, or maybe a simple blog write up? Keep up the great work!

[@TheGetawayer]

+Craig Nelson Thanks Craig ! Well, it depends on the car for me. The Panamera felt so perfect in all the different modes, people wouldn't beliebve me I guess :) The other thing is I want a certain flow in the video and not make it boring to watch with me talking into the camera all the time. And recording even more footage for longer videos is challenging for me being basically a one man show. Of course you can always ask me if there's something you're particulary interested in ! - Guido

[@Geefiasco]

Excellent review. I'd go for one of these over the M6 Gran Coupe, CLS AMG, RS7 and Rapide.

[@TheGetawayer]

[@hunyango2k]

i hate this car the time it was out, but when i had the chance to have a closer look and drive this car... man that was a very different experience. yes, it is not a 911 but it doesnt suppose to. it is a different car with a porches DNA. i did change my mind and i totally love this car now.

[@TheGetawayer]

Not a 911, but still a Porsche :)

[@hunyango2k]

=)

[@MrSlash00r]

I didn't care about the Panamera until I drove one at the Porsche Experience Center. It was "only" the S model but I couldn't believe how composed it was on their tight test track. The looks are subjective (I like hatchbacks so I suppose I'm biased) but there can be no doubt that it performs as a Porsche should, regardless of it's size.

[@TheGetawayer]

+MrSlash00r I'd say the S and Turbo really are the best and the S is way more affordable too. I like the new 3.6 Turbo. In the Macan its also very nice imo :)

[@swein1992]

I really don't understand people's hate on this car. It looks amazing in person. The interior is very very well built and really gives you a high end feel thats way better the BMWs and Mercedes.

[@TheGetawayer]

+Tian Xu (swein1900) I'd say it very much depends on the color and wheels. In my town there's a black one with no badges and the 20 inch 911 Turbo II Wheels. That would be my choice too :)

[@headbud987]

great review, Guido. I did not like the Panamera until recently, where my Porschedealer was friendly enough to give me a 2014 Panamera Diesel for one week during maintenance. Then i was sold on the Panamera. Some weeks ago i've driven the Panamera GTS. Now i feel desperate to buy a panamera gts. i love These cars!

[@TheGetawayer]

+headbud987 Great to hear that you agree with me ! I could have tested this or the GTS but went for the Turbo, because I miss low end torque in that engine. It sure makes a great sound and performs great though :)

[@michaelgoodwin593]

Make your opinion public and you open yourself up for criticism. There is always someone who's going to think differently than you do! Great video as always.

[@TheGetawayer]

+Michael Goodwin Thank you ! I guess this review was abit of a statement. Fits the car which does set a statement too :)

[@goons123flofy]

INSTANT LIKE AND SHARE :D Guido my family owns this car and i mentioned how i'd love for you to drive one recently in a comment.. thanks for this! such an amazing car! ZERO body roll. I think it actually does a better job defying what you think is possible in a car than a 911 because of the mass it overcomes. truly a remarkable machine! keep em coming! this video is really getting to be at a high level :)

[@TheGetawayer]

+zhbroder Thanks ! Well with the limited amount of cars I can get, it took a while, but I really enjoyed my time in it. Hopefully the videos changes people's mind a little bit, haha :) What options are on your car ?

[@zhbroder]

TheGetawayer well i daily drive a b8 S4, and one thing i want to say is that when i drive the panamera for a couple days (has PCCB) and get back into my S4, it feels like the brakes don't work and i get scared XD. but the panamera feels like the best do everything car: special, luxurious, and sporty when you want it to. it is so heavy yet it outperforms basically everything you encounter in everyday driving. just an amazing machine, truly a great host of porsche DNA :)

[@xSixPathsofPainx]

[@xIseVenIx]

In opposite of most opinios here I kind of liked the background music. At no point I was distrected by it or annoyed. I think Guido is finding his own style of videos, which I love! It is different but that makes it really interesting, at least to me. I never liked the interieur of Porsche either... but with that filter all that metal shiny elements start to glow in the darkness of the shot and I think it visually catches the character of the car. Just one mino thing: The video quality exceeds the quality of your audio, thats also probably the reason why some viewers ask for less backgroundmusic. If you could somehow get a bit better audio from your voice it would make a huge difference. I know there is the problem that usually you want to have the same audio quality in the whole video and thats difficult but still, it would improve it alot. Danke für die super Videos! Kannst du noch andere KZbinr empfehlen die ähnlichen Content produzieren? Weiter so!

[@TheGetawayer]

+Patrick Wilczek Thanks Partick ! I try to improve with every video. My Canon DSLR isn't the best for audio and I already tried a bunch of different mics on it. If the view numbers get better again, I will see if I can upgrade to some better equipment. Music is always a challenge because it has to be royalty free with a proper license, since i can't afford to get copyright strics from KZbin. All feedback helps, so I'm glad you enjoyed the video and I will try to improve the quality ! - Guido

Outstanding video! +1 on these supposed 'experts' who talk about body roll at 30mph.. Strange & maybe it's just me but I think this facelifted Turbo makes more noise than its predecessor? Might just be the camera.. Never remember them sounding that aggressive.Ever try an E60 M5? A different animal to this but definitely worth a go if you ever get the chance to get behind a good one :)

[@TheGetawayer]

+Connor M. I think its just lame to share your opinion about the exterior, while the driving dynamics are so overwhelmingly good. That's how I came up with this comment.

Excellent review, as usual. Looks like you have a new camera? Looks great! What is the camera model? (Also, I suggest a new microphone for your voice-over. Shure SM7 - it will make a big difference!)

[@TheGetawayer]

+aninstrumentalvision Still a normal Canon EOS 600...I use a Blue Mic for the voice overs. I'm pretty happy with it. After all I'm just doing these as a hobby, with no sponsors or anything. I would love to upgrade to 60fps equipment, when the views get better again and I can justify the investment :)

[@atthelord]

I really want to know if the ventilated/heated seats are a worthy option. Do they add weight and are they good? We see extreme temperatures .. 45-50 degrees Celsius of sorts .. And winters are about 0 degrees Celsius no colder than that in most cases. Also .. I'm curious to know what happened to the G63 review ? Is it in the works ? Or was it just a sounds/ impressions thing? Great video as always! Always look forward to them all! Cheers :)

[@TheGetawayer]

+Arman Talwar Yes, they work excellent, sadly no message feature available. That G63 was only press footage, I tried to get an invite for the driving event which was just 20 miles from where I live, but it was during the IAA and the contact at Mercedes was too busy to answer. But I will try a normal GLE next month if that's helping you :)

[@stevecook706]

I would like to think (hope) that this review was conducted on closed roads as the speeds driven in the fog were irresponsible and most definitely dangerous. It is unlikely, but possible that visibility in the moment was far better than it appeared on the video. I would be interested to know what Guido has to say. I do however enjoy his reviews as they are different to so many others. Keep up the good work.

[@TheGetawayer]

+Steve Cook These senses are filmed with a camera car driving ahead, doing the german speed limit, on roads I drive on a daily basis. It might look dangerrous, but some of it is because of the camera angle and without the speed limit I could have driven way faster actually. So don't worry ;) - Guido

Great video as always. I have always liked the Panamera, though id settle for the 4s or the GTS, also wondered why Porsche have never fitted the V8 diesel from the Cayenne into the Panamera. Also think the rear drive Panamera and the Aston Rapide S have quite a bit in common, would be interesting to hear which would be your choice.

[@TheGetawayer]

+Phill Smith The GTS doesn't have the low end torque, but the new Turbo V6 in the S and 4S would be great I think. Loved it in the Macan Turbo I filmed :)

Fantastic job

+Paoby Obounou Thank you !

[@maxhi88]

You've made the Panamera interesting. +1

[@TheGetawayer]

+Guy Incognito I'm very glad to hear that :) Thanks !

[@3232schmitty]

+Guy Incognito My dad had a 4S the first year they came out. I loved that thing, so fast and smooth and sounded like an angel. I wasn't old enough to drive at the time, but man I wish he'd kept it and given it to me.

[@maxhi88]

+Bailey Smith Well maybe he will buy you a new one. :)

[@3232schmitty]

Haha I that'd be awesome but I'd get into so much trouble with that thing, I'd just probably leave Uni and drive it all day.

[@maxhi88]

Not to mention the speeding tickets. ^^

[@ejs93033]

Now that you are friendly with BMW, how about that m235i?

[@nikb6528]

[@mohameddalghous]

So this steering wheel is optional for extra cash and it doesn't have an audio controls on it?

[@3232schmitty]

+Miro Malinik that's the point actually, its indicative of a few things:1) Porsche loves nickel and diming people, if there's a better or prettier version of something, charge them a shit ton of money2) proper driving enthusiasts who buy this car to actually use its performance instead of as a status symbol will pay up for the better wheel3)the standard wheel with audio and infotainment controls is actually ugly as hell 4) last but not least, we were given two hands so to use one to control all of the features on this car isn't a big deal since Porsche did the courtesy of providing physical buttons in place of haptic feedback or touch screen (though you can use the TS if you'd like.

Really great camera angles from the inside, Guido! How did you get the angle at 1:35 ?

[@TheGetawayer]

+Elias Evers Thanks Elias ! You can either use a Tripod on the backseat or a suction-cup mount from the soundroof, which is what I did here :)

[@eliasevers9172]

+TheGetawayer I tried that in my car but I couldn't get it low enough (from the sunroof). What camera are you using?

[@rykalskyes8888]

Or maybe you have to be a CEO. Everybody who tests these cars says they're great and way aboue anything you expect. OK, I believe you. But I'll never be allowed to drive one, just like I'll never be invited to the parties that those who can afford them have. And I'm pretty much OK with that.

[@ID1visor]

Lovely sound.

[@TheGetawayer]

+D1visor Thanks man !

[@ID1visor]

+TheGetawayer everything is lovely in this to be honest, espscially like background music in combination with the sound of tge car and autumn colors.

Hey, any plans to review newer panamera? Not sure what is a better buy, a slightly used panamera of this gen who has 3 lvl suspension or the latest gen audi a7 that also now features a 3 lvl air suspension, previously it was easier as audi was 2 levels and rougher, but now... not sure if premium is worth it, not to mention boring porsche looks

[@TheGetawayer]

No, not any time soon. I have driven many of them at Auto Bild, but don't feel like having another video on one. I liked the Turbo Sport Turismo best: www.autobild.de/artikel/porsche-panamera-turbo-sport-turismo-test-13413695.html

[@agreatd]

@@TheGetawayer thank you!

[@Baerchenization]

Als ich das letzte mal bei mobile.de nach dem gloriosen V8 GTS gesucht hatte, mußte ich mir derb die Äuglein reiben ob der heftigen Gebrauchtpreise... wegen dem Klang allein würde ich den alten GTS jedem anderen Panamera vorziehen.

[@TheGetawayer]

+Baerchenization Der Klang ist toll, aber das Drehmoment setzt sehr spät ein für so ein schweres Auto. Ich würde deshalb einen der Turbo-Motoren vorziehen. Aber der Klang des GTS ist wirklich Schauer erregend :)

[@jefffenn5016]

Did this panamera turbo have the regular, factory sport exhaust?

[@TheGetawayer]

Yes

[@jefffenn5016]

@@TheGetawayer 😱😱☠️ Wow, the sound is so impressive! Thanks for the quick reply! Great video! Cheers
