Used Porsche Panamera for Sale near Irvine, CA

Great combination of performance when needed and comfort for daily driving.

Excellent performance car with fun interior and great retained value.

This is an example of when its nice, its really nice, when its bad, its really bad. The First generation Panamera offers style, comfort, performance and a grand touring option to the Porsche line up. Driving a nice example of one it offers a fantastic experience with responsive handling, engine and transmission performance. The interior can be well optioned with different styling and comfort features. I have driven many of all of the trims from Base to Turbo S and generally found them to be a solid drivers car. That being said this car will burn your wallet faster than you can blink if you are not careful. You can get a lot of car for around 25-30k but it comes at the cost of expensive maintenance. In addition these cars are approaching more than 10 years old, and will require age related repairs. I would not recommend owning one of these unless you have double the asking price for repairs.

Car is beautifully styled and workmanship is exceptional. Gorgeous interior.

My first intro to the Porsche brand and family of vehicles. Always heard about their reputation, have always been curious if it holds up. It does. I prefer analog cars. I like sports cars for their focus on connecting you with the road and world around you. I prefer manual transmissions because it was rare to find an automatic that shifts at the same points in the same manner that I would in a wide variety of conditions (even though theyve gotten much better recently). Ive driven everything from motorcycles, forklifts, tractors, sports cars, sedans, vans, classic muscle cars, domestic and import brands, 18-wheelers and more. The Panamera was the first vehicle Ive ever owned that felt like it was designed by engineers that understand driving and want the same experience out of driving it that I do, combined with none of the downsides of owning a pure sports car (practicality, passenger comfort, storage space). Driving it is a pleasurable experience in any type of road or traffic conditions. Its relaxing when you want it to be, engaging in all the right ways, and downright sporty if you want to drive at a higher level. The chassis and suspension hide the weight SO well, and there are enough creature comforts implemented mindfully that it isnt annoying to drive if youre stuck on a straight road or in a commute. The PDK transmission is impressive and a notch above; while I still would enjoy a manual option, it makes so much sense in a vehicle like this. Its like being wrapped in a car enthusiast cocoon with room to live your life too. Never have I wanted to understand a car company or the peoples mindset behind engineering a drivers car like this. A truly incredible accomplishment. It doesnt feel like a compromise in any way. Im so glad it exists.
