the panamera definitely has less body roll than a stock e60 and the porsche ver of active steering come standard. it has a bit of understeer which is common with 4wd cars. I wish I had taken a more twisty part of hk for the test drive but in my even briefer test drive, it sure is several classes above a standard e60.

the thing abt porsche is that you feel special driving one, I dont think you will get the same feeling w a bimmer.

Guys, as i am stuck in the UK, am going to Merc centre in brooklands to test out their AMGs on track,
thinking the new E63 or C63, will take some pictures if possible!
I recalled mikes friend's cmt on his audi was it had quite a bit of understeer when pushed hard.

Agree that it has flaws - would be awesome if it had usb or some sort of card reader....

However, the system is good and works well! i used to use PC but since buying a macbook pro, its changed my opinion. Mac is the way forward!

Lets be honest, the iphone has flaws too - incredibly crap battery life! Limited memory! It still sells like hot cakes!!!!
