VW: Say no more.
Customer: I also don’t want to be able to drive it in the center of mayor cities in less than five years. I want an archaic engine that does not fit at all the character of this hypothetical car.
VW: We got ya
Customer: Oh, and all that work you’re putting in the suspension? I don’t give a fuck, I want at least 21 inch wheels.
VW: Sure.
Oh, Also I want it to be less practical than a Panamera.
VW: We know exactly how to do it sir.

Customer: The guy in the office next to me just bought a Panamera, I want him to feel like a peasant.
VW: got ya Sir

Yeah but whoever buys that could care less about milage and they are a different type of person, probably old and had a previous model. A Panamera doesn’t have the same cache with their demographic. I’d personally take a metallic brown Panamera 4 Sport Turismo hybrid with a red interior.

the rivalry that spans the entire corporate ladder is tightly held in Monopoly by VW.
The interns have a Golf
Their boss has an A3
Their boss has an A5
Their boss has a Porsche Macan
Their boss has an RS7
Their boss has a Panamera 4
Their Boss has a 911 Turbo
Their boss has a Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid
Finally, the CEO has a Flying spur.

In that market, it’s not about the speed or efficiency.
I’d rather have the Bentley

Looks better than a Panamera at least

It’s a high bar, the new panamera is very handsome. But I agree.

And uglier.

If the bentley came with the hybrid V8 of the Panamera, I’d be head overheels. But that W12 is simply too old.

The red interior looks killer in the Panamera.

I think both cars are much more attractive than their Mk1 counterparts.

Yeah I saw the combo I mentioned in a parking garage and I was impressed. Too bad Porsche maintenance is not cheap.

Looks much better than the prior version, but yeah a Panamera Turbo S Hybrid has a way cooler powertrain.
I think the smaller V8 option Bentley offers is more well regarded than the W12.

I think the Bentayga hybrid is the best car they make because of the powertrain

In my case, the intern has a Jetta and the CEO has a Mulsanne, but close enough.

It’s not supposed to be racier or more efficient than a Panamera. It’s supposed to be a big, fast, ultra-isolated luxury sledgehammer, and my money is that it’ll do that quite well.

Plebeian take

For it to be a truly plebeian replace Bentley with porsche and panamera with stinger

This actually looks good the Panamera does not.
