2022 Porsche Panamera GTS - Driving the V8 Twin Turbo Sleeper (POV Binaural Audio)

[@torquedtd]

One of the rare youtubers who have respectably kept creating great content and are overly underrated. You deserve more. Keep up the good work!

[@yankee2yankee216]

Tedward is my kind of car reviewer. All (or most of) the cars he drives are among my long-time favorites, and he has exactly the right attitude toward them, IMHO.

[@yankee2yankee216]

That nice “connection to the powertrain” is what MTs gave us. You had to be in tune with the engine and the road to drive a MT properly. It is what kept most of us engaged, which is not only fun, but it’s a safety issue! This Panamera is a wonderful vehicle, but that is largely because it has a lot of power (also a fine vehicle in general of course). I would be OK with an automatic, only if it has a powerful motor! Power makes up for a lot! I also hate the new big-grill BMWs (and I do drive a BMW, from the opposite end of the price range), which are, IMHO, UGLY.

[@HANKBRAVO81]

Couldn’t agree more. One of the few I will watch now. And the Panny GTS is one of my all time favourite cars to boot 👌🏻

For sure

Porsche really have perfected the art of making cars. The interior for example is just so well laid out, unlike the other luxury sedans in this class that have just gone mad with large screens in the name of innovation. Also, thanks for putting out another great video as always!

[@_retrophile_7473]

Porsche is surely the best sportscars manufacturer.

[@Dave-tz9zx]

Reminds me of the e90, e92 interior of BMW. They were on to something back then.

I love Porche cars!

[@jenn9212]

I agree. I personally am not a fan of the new large screens at ALL. I don't want an iPad in front of me distracting me while I'm driving. 😣

[@ShaiyanHossain]

Absolutely LOVE the wagon versions of these. Nothing like a Practical Porsche

[@TekVi]

i've lost count of how many times i have come back to watch this video.

[@blazinmark1]

As a lifetime BMW customer I went into the dealership to spec out the F90 LCI M5. My dealership had the M5 Comp and an M550i on the floor, so I decided to give them both a spin. After stepping into the M550i I realized quickly that optioned with 19's the M550i is the right vehicle for me. I drive 12,000 miles a year in NYC. I could not for the life of me justify the M5. After watching your Panamera GTS review, I might consider giving it a whirl once my Lease is up next year. In the mean time I am in LOVE with my 530hp and 553lb/ft Bavarian powerhouse. Great review btw!

I see the Panamera as a modern 928 S4. A big V8 up-front in a simple, smooth executive body sending power to all four wheels to create the ultimate Porsche grand touring car. This one just happens to come with two more doors

[@theonetruerobb4852]

There's a rumor that they might be considering a Panamera Coupe. Panamera underpinnings, hatchback, and Two (count 'em) 2 doors! Keeping my fingers crossed....

[@raulsanchezjr4048]

Yes! 100% agree with you! It's the 928 sedan or Saloon as they say in Europe!

[@actionfurby3986]

I bought a 2018 Panamera Turbo sport turismo (you did a video on one) and I love it. Best daily driver for someone with a small family. I get more attention then I thought I would driving it lol

[@JTG_33]

The best video!

[@TedwardDrives]

Thanks!

[@Dave-tz9zx]

Low dash is the best. That interior is simple but screams perfection with straight lines.

[@TheMstwntdLMSV123]

One of my favorite cars. Definitely an aspirational purchase. As much as I am conscious of the environment, I'd love to be able to purchase one of these before they're gone

[@JeremiBulakowski]

I don't think these type of cars doing any crazy mileages and also they're not sold in high figures. Considering this they don't have such a big impact comparing to the main pollutants of our planet. But I understand that it's kind of lavish purchase, not guided by common sense.

[@ElliWoelfin]

It is worth saying that one of these, as with any car, is gonna be completely negligible in regard to its impact on the environment. You just cannot do enough with a car to make it worth as much as a cargo ship or a coal mine or a plane (in particular, the egregious private jets). It's a pretty guilt-free thing that has been made "your problem" because of companies pushing that with the carbon footprint idea, so they can make sure you get all of the responsibility and guilt while they can continue being the actual problem despite being in positions to fix it.

[@blue-tb2fd]

@@ElliWoelfin Exactly, and when you consider the mining operations that have to take place to gather some of the materials used in hybrid and electric batteries you could probably make the case that certain electric/hybrid cars do create more net pollution than gas cars. Sure, a fully electric car has no direct emissions but that's only half the story - you have to consider what goes into making the car, as well as the energy sources for the electricity used to charge it.

[@v119-h2d]

Having a kid is the worst thing you can possibly do for the environment. Get a vasectomy and get your Panamera

[@roroguapo3]

You’ll be helping the environment a lot more than buying an EV. EV’s cause way more environmental damage when you factor in sourcing the raw materials (such as the slave labor lithium and nickel mines) for the batteries and the increased power grid usage (most electricity comes from fossil fuels being burned).

[@surreal9558]

ted's gotten quite popular on here, glad to see you've gained a decently sized community since your early videos :)

One of the greatest vehicles you can buy. Our 2012 is still rock solid and tight, compared to our 2013 Mercedes SUV that was built out of squeaky plastic and baby rattles.

[@2011hwalker]

Porsche don't miss. Agreed that they feel incredible.

[@vvarioPL]

Finally my beloved GTS on your channel. Have it as Cayenne, but also test drove the Panamera GTS as well, because they didn’t have the GTS Cayenne at my dealership and I wanted to check if that engine won’t be too aggressive for daily driving and it definitely wasn’t - it was perfect. The experience of driving those are very similar actually - both have grip limits way above my limits of courage and skills 😂 Would love to see the Cayenne GTS review from you as well, I’m really interested in your opinion.

[@rogerdodgerxd]

Couldn't you custom order one like my mom? A down side to custom ordering is that it takes monthssssss for it to ship to us.

‘From the law’ when you voiced those words, that is what I think every time as I press thee foot feed on GTS, get it got it gone

[@K03sport]

I'm a fan of the Panamera too. A 4S is a nice place to be. The GTS is great, but sometimes less is more. I wish you could do three pedals, but I'm happy with fast wagons in general. We need more fast wagons.

[@joeshmuckatelli4447]

Ive never understood why youtubers trash talk the 970. Yet they sold well and if you weren’t a youtuber, you loved its looks. Couldn’t it be, that the vast majority of folks buying the 970 thought, and still think, the 970 was gorgeous? It would be refreshing for anyone making a video about the 970, or 971, to come out and praise the 970 for the beauty it was.

[@Zycx2]

As a European viewer, i love to see the km/h sometimes bro.

Definitely gonna order a Turbo S while there because none of the local Porsche dealers have a Turbo S in stock right now.

[@K03sport]

Why did you buy/lease a DBX in the 1st place? 🤔🤔🤔 😉 Such a worthless vehicle in all due respects. Might as well check out a Urus as it is not afraid to let you know what it is. And will do every thing you want want or to. I know this is a fake account, but it is fun to see what ppl say.....

Supply chain shortages. They just haven’t been producing as many. Pretty much every new one my dealer gets in is already sold or sells quickly.

I'd imagine Taycan cannibalizes some of the Panamera sales. Plus more and more people will just get a Cayenne

@@TedwardDrives I still think the Taycan is about 2 notches lower quality than a Panamera when you get to the interior materials side of it. But I can certainly see the EV popularity taking sales towards it. Idk about the Cayenne though. Did a quick autotrader search and there’s 54 new Panameras within 300 miles of me compared to 233 Cayennes. I guess I need to see average time on the lot to get a real feel of sell rate though
