Welcome to Happy Dream Life. Today, I will review Porsche Panamera GTS 1st generation.
Porsche Panamera GTS 1st Generation
Let's start with Porsche Panamera GTS 1st Generation startup video below.
How do you feel? Personally, I really like the startup and exhaust sounds of the 8th cylinder. Cars with engines less than 8 cylinders don't have much of a taste for driving, perhaps because of the flat startup and exhaust tones. It's been almost 10 years since the first generation of Porsche Panamera GTS came out. When it first came out, I thought its front design was okay because it was the typical Porsche look, but I still don't like the back design. But with the second generation of Porsche Panamera, I think the back design looks really cool. In the case of Porsche, the GTS model imply that the new model will be released soon.
However, people buying the Porsche GTS model seems to be enthusiastic about its best performance and options. If you look at it, Porsche is really good at business. Panamera is consist of the below models.
- Panamera 4
- Panamera 4S
- Panamera GTS
- Panamera Turbo
- Panamera 4 E-Hybrid
As you can see, there are various models in Panamera. Each model has a similar look, but they are different in terms of performance. Today we will talk about the GTS model among the five Panamera models above. Panamera GTS 1st generation has the following performance.
Displacement: 4,806 ccHorsepower: 430 hpMax Torque: 53.1 kg.mFuel efficiency: 7.2 km/lEngine: V8 Transmission: 7Top speed: 288km/h0-100 km/h: 4.5 sec
When you drive the first generation of Porsche Panamera GTS, it really feels like a sports car. It's really fast, and it's really good. When I first stepped on the full accelerator in the first generation of Porsche Panamera GTS, it wasn't as impressive as Porsche 911 but I was amazed by its speed even though its size is big, and the car itself is very heavy.
Also, since it is an all-wheel drive, the stability of cornering is quite significant. I'm very dissatisfied with the design, especially the backside, but in terms of performance, I'm really satisfied even though it's been almost 10 years. In the case of the interior, the alcantara material is used a lot, so it has a nice and luxurious look. Additional options include the GTS Interior PKG (Carmine Red), which has red needle lines and red seat belts, which further boost the look of sports cars. In the case of audio, an additional option is also available for the Bumester® High End Surround Sound System, which has a very good sound quality. The ride is actually not comfortable. Especially if you sit in the back seat, you can feel how hard and uncomfortable it is. However, the unique Porsche GTS exhaust sound, which can be heard in the back seat, makes people excited and feel that it is a sports car. Porsche is the king of options. You think you can buy it at the price on the Internet, but it's amazing to know how many options and how much you need to spend more to get the vehicle. Korean culture is not a tipping culture like foreign countries, but I think there are potential customers who go to Porsche stores with a good heart and give up after seeing the final price outside of their situation while adding options.
This concludes the first-generation review of Porsche Panamera GTS.
Summary: I'd like to give 5 if its back design was nice. In other words, the back looks that bad. Even though it's been almost 10 years, the performance of the vehicle is amazing. If you have a chance, I hope you test drive the first generation of Porsche Panamera GTS and feel why people are enthusiastic about Porsche. Personally, I'd like to give 4 out of 5.
Have a great day.
