New Panamera Turbo, order

Last weekend I finally went to finalize my order for the new Panamera Turbo. This new Panamera Turbo is aNürburgring, Germany.He set the world's fastest time in his class (7.38 seconds).It's a hell of a car.

By the way, I tried to run the same course at Nürburgring in the game, but I couldn't make the curves and hit the bumps, and after a few frantic runs, I finally managed to get a few seconds under 9 minutes!(in Japanese history)in practice(Completely dead.)

Actually, before I started writing this blog, I had already decided to replace my current Panamera Edition, but last weekend, it finally became a reality. Unfortunately, though, this time it wasn't me who bought it, but my husband, so...The goal was to "buy a Panamera with my own money."It is still ongoing.

After Panamera Edition and Panamera Turbo, I'm a complete idiot for still setting a goal to buy a Panamera. ......For a long time now, I've had my sights set on wanting a "Panamera GTS," so...I will work hard to achieve that goal.

Now that this has happened, let's go out with a bang and "conquer the Panamera" (laughs).

At the dealership

Now back to the story... I went to the dealership to finalize my order and was promptly shown to my seat. Whenever I come to a Porsche dealer, I always order a hot latte.（I don't know.)

The procedure begins immediately, and Mr. H, the person in charge, deftly stamps his seal on the documents.

By the way, you are very good at stamping seals. I am clumsy with my hands and have never been able to stamp a seal neatly, so I really respect people who can stamp a seal properly. After that, my husband filled out the necessary information on the contract, but in fact, his handwriting is very dirty.

Beyond the level of being dirty, my husband's handwriting is so dirty that it gives me chills when I see it.(I wonder how he can write so dirty... he seems to be very serious.)Well, it didn't matter how clean or dirty the handwriting was in the contract, so the conversation proceeded without problems. After that, we negotiated the purchase price of the current 970 Panamera Edition.

I wanted to see what kind of negotiations and deals would be made in this important scene, but my daughter, who was too old to sit still, started cackling and running around the store, so I had to leave for a while to catch up with her. There were a variety of models on display in the store.

I knew the 911 was beautiful.

When we returned, the exchange was already over, but a summary of the new Panamera Turbo purchase is below.

New Panamera Overview

(1) Time from order to delivery

This new Panamera Turbo is the first of its kind.I placed my order on March 5 of this year. We were told that delivery would be as early as October, possibly November.But unexpectedly, they were able to get on the production line quickly and will come to the dealer where they were ordered at the end of September.(But the year is now the 2018 model, not the 2017 when you ordered it)

The car will probably be delivered in early October. The time from order to delivery is about 7 months. The Panamera Turbo is now on its way to Japan for shipping, so it should be enjoying its voyage on the sea somewhere.(Please, please don't let that ship sink or something.)

(2) Actual price

The price of a bare-bones new Panamera Turbo without any options is 23,770,000 yen.(...can buy a house...)From there, I added options such as sports chrono, sports exhaust, and so on, and the cost of the options alone was about 3 million yen.(Our Panamera Turbo ended up costing about 27 million)

I will blog about the details of what options were added and what kind of specifications were achieved after the car is actually delivered.

(3) Current Panamera Edition purchase price

In February 2016, the Panamera Edition, which was purchased for about 12 million yen, was able to be bought for about 7 million yen.(Mileage is 13,000 kilometers)One owner, 13,000 km, 2016 model, it seems to be about right.

However, in the case of the Panamera, the price does not fall far from this line, and even those on the market are rarely less than 5 million yen.

I once had a person in charge show me a graph of how much each manufacturer drops in price, and Porsche was by far the most expensive of all the other manufacturers. If this were a BMW 7 series, the price could be less than half of the original purchase price.

So, the new Panamera Turbo will be coming to my house in probably one month. I am not sure if I will be able to drive it... But for now, I will enjoy the few remaining drives with the Panamera and give it a good final wash with my own hands.
