TTAC Commentator Boff says the new Porsche Panamera sounds like Ye Olde 928—which would make my previous headline seem pretty pig ignorant. He may be right. We retort, you decide.

I was thinking the new Porshce sounded like the 928 too. I was also in awe of it when I was small. It was the summer daily driver of an airline pilot in the town were I grew up. He never drove it hard. Metallic gold, and always spotless, way before the word "detailing".
Call me wrong - the sound is very, very similar to my vintage Porsche 911

Ah, nothing like the sound of a man-symphony in V8 flat (out). My 740iL sounds pretty good but is way muted. By the time I hear the V8 wail (very muffled), I'm way past the speed limit and have to slow down... Perhaps I'll be able to run it down at a racetrack some time and flog it a little... heh heh.
