i wonder why they did the panamera s instead of the turbo? i imagine it's the ridiculous price difference, but it still looks weird that they used the top end from the other three makes and then "just" the S

Very poor choice of cars, though, which is unusual for EVO. This isn't their best work. Putting a 400bhp Panamera S in the running isn't comparing apples to apples... They ought to have run a Turbo or Turbo S. If the roles were reversed, and they'd pitched a 400bhp 550i against the Turbo it would have been just as ridiculous. Not EVO's best work, and more for show that for any meaningful conclusions....
