The car has now crossed 15,000Kms in nearly 2 years - which isn't a whole lot but my daily commute isn't very long. Overall it has been a fantastic experience so far in terms of reliability and performance. And whenever minor issues have propped up the Service team at Porsche India is just excellent, they go over and above to go out of their way to provide a great experience to the customer; so at the risk of sounding like a sponsored post - high props to them!

As I mentioned in the previous post the following mods carried out were:
Roof Blacked Out
Front Bumper Grille Blacked out
Front Fender Slats Blacked Out
Rims Blacked Out
Rear Diffuser Blacked Out
New Quad Exhaust Tips Blacked Out
All Chrome Badges Blacked Out
Brake Calipers Painted Lamborghini Aurora Borrealis

and I'm attaching photos of the same.

Another reason for the low mileage is because the Panamera got another stable mate in November that's unintentionally become kind of a daily driver for me!

After a few more miles, and time permitting I might do an ownership review on it too!

Congratulations on your new ride! I wouldn't blame you...just a lop-sidedly poor comparison from my side -- I have a Hyundai Xcent diesel and my parents have a Hyundai Grand i10 petrol automatic. I prefer the petrol anyday for daily drives because the drive is absolutely magical. Maybe even you would have felt it? Diesel engines have that brrrr (vibrations) which I find irritating whereas Petrol engines are so smooth as silk, as almost driving on air! Enjoy your new ride.

Hey Porcupine, do you still own Panamera? It would be great if you could share your ownership experience, if that's possible.
