I go over 5 things that I Hate about my 2010 Porsche Panamera S.

So the visibility out the back is bad in a dark garage. How is it when you have your eyes closed?

I just picked up a Panamera GTS 970.1 and so far I absolutely love it but I can definitely see and agree with everything you’ve stated in this video.

I wanted to hate on this video but this guy is spot on lol... I LOVE my Panamara but yes...I have the SAME issues

I was reluctant to watch this video for months due to its title since I love mine so much. I couldn't imagine what you could say, but eventually I ran out of other Panamera vids and watched this. I was pleasantly surprised. I totally get your issues. I have a 2013 twin Turbo 4.8 Liter V8, same color as yours, and it's not only gorgeous but it's incredible to drive. I agree with all of your choices even though I dont personally "hate" those features. I hate that it is expensive to fix/maintain. Well worth it, though.

I completely agree with you on the radio deck. I just recently purchased a 2010 Panamera S, that I found on car gurus at a horrible dealership in Atlanta. Anyhow I quickly realized how difficult it is to navigate the simplest features on the deck. Notably it is a 2010 and it’s 13yrs old but the deck is just lame. To boot, the car didn’t come with a reverse camera. So even though it’s reverse cam compatible, it’s a pain to back this car into a space, only relying on the back up sensors. Especially with the tinted windows the car came with and especially at night. To remedy this, I plan on getting a new Pioneer Apple I touch deck to replace the old one. After that I’ll definitely have a reverse cam installed.
Outside of that, my only other issue seems to be electrical, regarding chassis system failure display, that pops up often. Not the cars fault, it’s the dealerships and mines for not having a mechanic inspect the car before I purchased it. Hopefully tomorrow, when I go to my appointment with a respected local Porsche mechanic. I’ll have this issue resolved because I really love my car.

You can vinyl wrap the running boards. You can paint you clock matte black.

You had good points! I also don’t like some Porsche models(after 2017) still do not have the Keyless entry and start option! Also, there is no next button to change the song on steering wheel! 😮 it’s pretty annoying when you want to change to next song! After driving all the German Cars, and thinking that how the Porsche Engineers think about that! 🤷🏻‍♂️ Porsche is still European!

Love the video man everything is so genuine, straight forward and packed with content when it comes to your Panamera. I'm trying to save for this car as I think it's a steal for the specs...I really hope by the time I grab one you're still banging out this content man, haha. Thanks for bringing up the parking since I'm in NJ and parallel parking will happen eventually

As to #4, I hope you’ve not disabled the touchscreen in settings? With the touchscreen enabled, the system is super intuitive.

I have a Panamera GTS and it’s awesome! She’s a screaming beast!

It is not a clock, it is a timer for laps. The clock is the digital time in the middle. So your attracted to watching it tick tick? Maybe psychologist? It again is it is. Not a clock. It is a lap timer. Which is useless even in the 911 it is useless. If you want more hp - buy the next upgraded engine models. Buy the next jazzy model up the range.

You got my attention at “guns and horse power” 👍🏼

[litreho]

Good job, very informative!! We just bought a 2015 Panamera Turbo S. I can relate to everything you pointed out. Not looking to boost the power, as it is plenty powerful....

[red_j_ruff_wood]

for the clock, put some non-reflective tape over the chrome top. problem solved.

*I'm sorry for your pain! You deserve better! So give me the car and find something worthy of you!* 😁

What more power upgrade to the turbo. I’ve got a 2011. Just awesome 🦘🇦🇺🤯🤯🤯

There are ECU tuners out there and a few brands of body kit mfg from Germany and Asia. You can do the pedal master mod to change the throttle response too. But if you are driving around in sport plus often, I can't see how that's not adequate.

Love this car and great vid! Keep up the good work 💪🏼

How’s the space inside. I’m 6’6 and currently drive a S550. The S550 fits me like a glove would you say this is similar to size? Thanks and great video.

I have a 2010 Panamera S and I love it!
True, regarding the little irritating "features" that you mentioned. But I don't have the clock, as I don't have the system associated with it. (Chrono sport package). But that's okay with me. I bought it with 66, 000 mi on it and had to perform some items that weren't listed on the records. That totaled a few thousand more in cost. But that's fine.
I come from ownerships of a few BMWs, including an M3, of recent vintage.
I can say, without a doubt, that this car is absolutely fantastic! No regrets about its purchase, even though it was an afterthought, as I just wanted to get rid of the BMW. Ha! Seriously.
I suppose I fell in love with the ass end of this vehicle, first. 😂 It's so wide it would be hard to imagine losing any stability in the corners.
I have found the infotainment system to be a bit frustrating and not very intuitive, as you have. But it's been fun going down the rabbit holes.
Well worth it!
