What You Notice When Driving a Panamera After a Porsche Boxster

Panamera and Boxster Come to think of it, I haven’t written much about the Panamera on the blog lately. Since our home parking space only fits two cars, we rent several other parking spots elsewhere. And because the Panamera has been parked for a while at a spot a bit farther from home, it hasn’t seen much use recently.

718 Cayman/Boxster GTS 4.0 Debuts! What Does My Husband Think??
