sounds like he knows how to drive it properly then.

Wait, I could be posting to BF while being whisked along the highway at high speeds......


.......nah. I'd still rather drive, because then I'd be doing two pointless things at once. My brain might explode.

True...That engine is very powerful. However, the car is very heavy, and therefore would not be very sporty/fun to drive. I prefer the back seat, where I could be posting on BF while enjoying the ultimate luxury experience.

They're more practical than 2 door coupes, and on the Aston, you can hardly see the back doors. Or at least you can't in the pictures.

Does anyone else want a "luxury" bike?

I would like to have a touring bike, brooks saddle and bar tape, brown leather panniers, handlebar bag, 700x35c slick tires. It would be awesome. I'm completely serious. Not as a main bike, but I think it would be nice.

I've seen the Panamera in person and it does not look like a Beetle. Yet, I'm torn. I feel that it is another step away from sports cars for Porsche, but they are generally very successful with new endevors. And they can't live on 911s alone.

The Aston is sleeker-looking. In this hypothetical situation, I would probably choose the Aston.

I was driven around in a Panamera. Very nice back seat. I like how you can adjust the baffles, but when they're open its a noisy ride back there.

I would like to have a touring bike. My wife only likes shorter rides, so she can drive the motorhome, and I will ride the bike.
