2012 Porsche Panamera Turbo S Agate Grey Metallic on 2040-cars
Deal, New Jersey, United States
|
For Sale is a 2012 exceptionally equipped Panamera Turbo S features an extensive option list. The owner is a close relative; a high end fellow with a handful of high end cars at any one time, each with no expense spared in its proper care and maintenance.
This car was ordered specified to the exacting specifications of the owner who personally spent the time to coordinate the options and presentation of this special car. The Turbo S version of the Panamera is also the pinnacle of the Panamera expression as a Porsche- So make no mistake; this car goes as well as it shows. The Panamera represents the expression of a sports car, but without compromise with regard to everyday practicality and necessity. It's the best of both worlds, and herewith is one of the best examples you will find available in this arena. This car features: Agate Grey Metallic Paint (exclusive only to the '12 Turbo S model) Two tone- Black/Agate Grey leather interior Porsche Sport Exhaust 20" RS Wheels Adaptive Cruise Control Lane Change/Blind Spot Assist Ventilated front seats 4 zone climate control Rear compartment lighting Front & rear parking sensors w/rear view camera Navigation Electric individual rear seating w/center console Electric roll up shades- sides/rear compartment Soundproofing & Heat resistant glass Illuminated door sills- Aluminum Aluminum PDK gear selector Bixenon lighting Porsche crests- front & rear headrests Also- Car features 3M clear shield bra on front end Original list over $191k--- Don't be foolish enough to overlook this long list of equipment on a car that was spec'd to coordinate so nicely its exterior coloring along with its two tone interior and carefully selected wood trimmings. These highlighted options are in addition to the very long list of standard equipment as outfitted by Porsche to showcase the top line Turbo S. See the original window sticker in the photos. This car is so gawdawfully nice it will not require even a car wash to sit on any showroom floor or your own garage. Notes: There are 2 issues to be noted on this car 1) There is a scrape in the paint on the passenger side lower front side of bumper (See photo). This can be repaired as part of the purchase price if the winning bidder authorizes. 2) One of the keys is missing the cap on the back end (See photo) ------------------------------------------------------------ Turbo S Review: (the 2 photos in this review are not the actual car for sale) Think back to high school and your guidance counselor’s assertion that, given the right amount of stick-to-itiveness, you could accomplish anything you wanted. No one believed that. Except, it seems, the engineers at Porsche. How else to explain a 4448-pound all-wheel-drive vessel that’s able to carry four tall adults comfortably and also hit 60 mph in 3.3 seconds, complete the quarter-mile in 11.5 at 122 mph, and apply lateral forces of 0.97 g to its passengers? Perseverance in the face of, well, nothing begot the Turbo S, a higher-output rendition of the Panamera Turbo. Very little changes to provide an extra 50 horsepower and 22 pound-feet of torque from the 4.8-liter, four-cam twin-turbo V-8—why ruin a good and insanely capable thing? There’s a pair of lower-inertia turbos—the lightweight impellers are made of a titanium-aluminum alloy—and the engine computer has been reprogrammed to match. That might not sound like much, and it doesn’t even make a difference in the 0-to-60-mph time, which can be seen as both a nod to Porsche’s impressive launch-control system and an acknowledgment of the somewhat strict laws of physics. From 60 up, though, the S has the clear advantage: It beat the standard Turbo to 70 mph by 0.1 second; at 100, it opened up a half-second lead; by 150, there was a 1.6-second advantage; and the S got to 170 mph 2.4 seconds quicker, at which point we ran out of space for straight-line testing. On the oval, we managed a drag-limited 191 mph with the Turbo S. Credit the more-responsive turbos for improvements of a tenth or several when starting from a roll and in our passing tests. Achieving the best results in a Panamera Turbo requires a few additional pieces of equipment, most of which are made standard on the Turbo S: Porsche’s torque-vectoring system, an adaptive and adjustable air suspension, and the Sport Chrono Plus package with its accompanying launch-control function. The remarkable thing about the Turbo S isn’t so much its list of accomplishments but that it can achieve them while maintaining the serenity and usability that mark the best GT cars. This is not an either/or proposition, one where the aggressive settings negate the comfort; in Sport Plus mode, the suspension, steering, and transmission are called to attention but don’t call attention to themselves with flinty, darty, or unsettling behavior. There’s nothing keeping this Porsche from being drivable every day. While the powertrain tweaks are mostly academic in practice, those responsible can hardly be called underachievers. That said, this car breaks not the slightest of sweats, leading us to wonder what more the overbuilt-feeling chassis could handle. There’s really only one thing the Panamera can’t do: go unnoticed in traffic. If that problem has an engineering solution, we’re sure the Porsche folk would have found it by now. Never give up on your dreams, kids. ------------------------------------------------------ Car is sold as is / where is- Shipping cost is the responsibility of the buyer, although I can assist you in arrangements if need be.

Can a Corvette really be compared to a 911 with options costing more than the Chevy?
Wed, 29 Jan 2014In this latest video from Drive, Chris Harris asks straight away, "Can you still compare a base Corvette to a Porsche Carerra?" That's an particularly interesting question in this film, as the 911 in question is a 400-horsepower Carrera S model that's been fitted with $60,000 in options. Base price of a Corvette Stingray? $51,995. Harris' tester features an automatic and some other goodies that push it right up to that $60,000 range. So yes, the options on the Porsche cost as much as this entire 460-hp Chevrolet.
Harris stresses that this isn't a full review, but he does exercise both cars in a more composed manner before reverting to his traditionally exuberant driving style. The impressions are, as always, spot on, with Harris favoring the pointy nature and V8 power of the Stingray, while enjoying the gearbox (Porsche's exceptional PDK transmission) and just about everything else on the 911.
Take a look below for the latest video from Drive, and let us know if you agree with Mr. Harris' views on these two sports cars.
NHTSA, IIHS, and 20 automakers to make auto braking standard by 2022
Thu, Mar 17 2016The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and virtually every automaker in the US domestic market have announced a pact to make automatic emergency braking standard by 2022. Here's the full rundown of companies involved: BMW, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar Land Rover, Kia, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, Tesla, Toyota, Volkswagen, and Volvo (not to mention the brands that fall under each automaker's respective umbrella). Like we reported yesterday, AEB will be as ubiquitous in the future as traction and stability control are today. But the thing to note here is that this is not a governmental mandate. It's truly an agreement between automakers and the government, a fact that NHTSA claims will lead to widespread adoption three years sooner than a formal rule. That fact in itself should prevent up to 28,000 crashes and 12,000 injuries. The agreement will come into effect in two waves. For the majority of vehicles on the road – those with gross vehicle weights below 8,500 pounds – AEB will need to be standard equipment by September 1, 2022. Vehicles between 8,501 and 10,000 pounds will have an extra three years to offer AEB. "It's an exciting time for vehicle safety. By proactively making emergency braking systems standard equipment on their vehicles, these 20 automakers will help prevent thousands of crashes and save lives," said Secretary of Transportation Anthony Foxx said in an official statement. "It's a win for safety and a win for consumers." Read on for the official press release from NHTSA.

Automakers making the commitment are Audi, BMW, FCA US LLC, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar Land Rover, Kia, Maserati, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi Motors, Nissan, Porsche, Subaru, Tesla Motors Inc., Toyota, Volkswagen and Volvo Car USA.
Porsche Exclusive showcases custom-order 911 Turbo Cabrio
Sun, 06 Apr 2014Porsche is one of the most profitable automakers in the business. In fact, it's said to make about $23,000 on each car it sells, thanks in no small part to an options list that can send the sticker price accelerating quicker than one of its own sports cars. But there are always those for whom even the extensive option list won't be enough, and for just such customers, there is Porsche Exclusive.
The division in Zuffenhausen is tasked with creating even more individualized examples of Porsche vehicles, and it recently did up this 911 Turbo Cabriolet - which, at $160,700, is already one of the most expensive Porsches you can order this side of a 918 Spyder: more than any Boxster, Cayman, Macan or Cayenne, any Panamera other than a Turbo S or Executive - not to mention any other 911 short of a Turbo S.
This particular demo vehicle features a Slate Grey paint job and red interior decked out in more leather than an S&M dungeon - which, come to think of it, would probably be less financially painful than ordering up this car from Porsche Exclusive.
