Automatic transmissions are going to be your only option soon. The new double clutch 'automatic' transmissions are less fun but much faster than humans. Manual is being eliminated in the Corvette. Ferrari is killing the manual gearbox. So is Lamborghini. BMW soon to follow. Mercedes pretty much already there.

See where this is going?

Not saying it's right but manual gearbox options are extremely limited now. And the manufacturers who are still making them are doing so from pressure (like BMW).

I've been looking at a Panamera as an everyday car, i currently have an Accord and a 4 door Silverado, any experience with them? Thinking about selling one.

Agreed but they're making it harder for us who like manuals. Yes their new transmissions are faster but some of us like old school manuals.

There will always be a market for manual transmission cars. Purists will demand it :yeshrug:

I never loved driving until I got my first manual car. I recommend that everyone learn. For myself, being "part of the road" was never understood until I purchased my first stick shift :banderas:

eh with these cars getting more and more advanced with their transmissions and clutch systems; electronic shifting will phase out manual. yes there will be a market but that market won't be worth producing for. most people have transitioned over without a fight.

I know people try to race u...have u caught any bodies yet :lolbron:
I dust BMW's especially 300 series, G37s, M3's, Cadillac CTS's all day.

Cars that are very fast and difficult to beat (Tesla sedans, Lambos, Z06's)

Overall car is still one of the nicest looking cars on the road.

The Panamera is an excellent car IMHO, but the styling isn't for everyone. You most definitely can get them at a reasonable rate, so i say if your interested then go for it.

Be warned that the maintenance on the Panamera is far more than the Accord's, so prepare yourself for worse gas mileage and eve more expensive maintenance appointments. However the Panamera shyts on the Accord in every way imaginable.

How it that far fetched? He has 2 cars and is looking at a 35-50k car. It ain't that hard to get a Panamera lol

You don't have the income to get panamera if you're driving an accord. Sounds like he should be saving that money or investing it.

c00ns buying cars they can't afford to flex instead of investing and building that capital

Its white exterior, blue interior convertible. Only had 16K miles on it. I swear, driving this beast is such an amazing experience....:banderas:
Only 16 k miles?

That makes me wonder if there was some tampering going on
