My car had a few recalls that had to be addressed so I got a loaner today. Very nice on the inside and out. SLOOOW!  There’s nothing impressive how it drives at all. All these technology bells and whistles and the car drives like my 1999 Honda civic I drove in college.

I think the 4-door Porsche sedans look weird.  That shape just doesn't lend itself well to a sedan model.  Just my opinion obviously.

That’s not a sedan. It’s an SUV. The Sedan(panamera) is what I actually drive and it’s not for everyone, but it’s definitely for me. Nothing drives like it. It handles incredible well, is fast and yet is a tank in the snow, which is important in NE Ohio

Then that's the tiniest SUV I've ever seen.  And I hate tiny SUVs.

It's a Macan. It's not terribly small, to be honest, but I'd rather drive the Cayenne.

Dude. Compared to real, actual SUVs, the ones built on proper truck chassis, it's tiny.  And ugly.

But I also dislike the Cayenne, so I'm not discriminating.

I think I rode in a Ferrari 412 (I remember that it was a 2+2 Ferrari, so I assume it was a 412--mighta been a 400) once in the mid-80s. I remember it being so cool that it was a Ferrari, but unimpressed when I actually took a short ride in the back jump seat.

I know its judgy, but I think of Porsches and Ferraris as two seaters. Boxster/Cayman are kind of the follow-ups to the 914/944 of my youth (back then I was partial to the 928), and the 911--well, that is kind of the Porsche.

But I bet your Panamera is a blast.

The Cayenne and Macan just look like VolksWagons to me.

To each their own.

Not everyone needs a huge SUV. 

Especially when you're 75, can't see, can't walk, can't hear and you live in SW FL.

But they sure think they need one.

Those folks don't need to be driving a vehicle of any size.  Revoke them licenses!
