I think you might be right sir, as the registration of that car says its been done recently as in within last 6-8months,as its AP9 BS series , and its AP9 BV going on right now if iam not wrong.

That sure does look like a U.S spec SLC to me too. Although it Might be restored rather well maintained !

Great Find there Syed

Panemera looks not bad at all. Somehow the interiors look tacky though imo

The Panamera does have lots of switches in the front as well as rear. I'm sure every one of them has some purpose from driving to pleasure. The reviews say that it has the best rear seat comfort compared to Maser and other 4 door super cars. Lets see what AM has to offer with its Rapide

Spotted a brand new White Porsche with T/R plates last evening at Rd # 14, B.Hills.

It crossed me from opposite direction and as it was dusk and going quickly could not make out if it was a Panamera

I love the exact stating of "Time Spotted". Its so cool how excited we get at sightings and register that kinda like a historic event in our minds :-)

Great! I thought Infiniti brand was only for US, rest of the world it sells under Nissan brand. Was it a LHD? It should be Q45 if its big in size, I'm not aware of any Q4S sedan. Its the flagship model for Infiniti and is compared to 7series, S class and A8, not that successful though.

The panamera sure looks the Porsche head on . But at the back not quite sure what happened.
I know this is going to sound silly but the rear of the panamera reminds of a hearse vehicle.
Sorry if i hurt anyone's feelings, but its just my thought.

Good point there! I'd say that the Panamera looks sort of like a stretched Cayman. Think about it! Take a good long look at the rear of the Cayman and the Panamera.

Definitely does resemble a cayman , but the cayman looks a million times better. Something terribly wrong with the back of this car.Would you buy it for 2.5 crore's showroom price. No way .Way too ugly.Would rather go in for the S65 AMG ,quatropotte,or the flying spur speed.

There are few cars manufactures in the world who dont and will not change their shapes no matter what! good example Ambassador
Porsche's will never change their designs to the extremes. Their goal has always been to deliver that shape whether its an SUV, Coupe or a Sedan and a lot went into the design of Panamera to preserve its history. The design of 911 didnt change much since 60's. I know looks matter but eventually you will like it, you have no option

Edit: There's a assembly for Dynamic spoiler in the trunk which comes up at speeds beyond 60mph and and 2 wings spread sideways for speeds beyond 120mph to reduce the air lift. So the trunk shape has some functionality.
