.8 seconds on a 1 minute and change lap is a lot.
Suprisingly, the regular turbo with the powerkit is even faster than the turbo S.
Either way, the performance of these big cars is astounding no matter what and the panamera has seriously stepped up the game as Ive never driven a big car that is as precise or composed. And when you consider the Panamera is about 4 years old it just shows how high the bar has been raised when two new to market cars (as the m5 and e63 are) cant beat one thats been around for many years now.
As for price, youve got to pay to play. Combine the performance, the exclusivity and the substanially (maybe exponentially) better quality/fit/finish it has over the m5/e63 youre going to pay a lot.
