Panamera... [Re: beetle]

And I found this Panamera. It disappears between a 4Runner and a Camry. It's not as big as some think.

My new GTI has more passenger and cargo room than the Panamera, but has the same radio (I mean media center) and many of the same features, but for a quarter of the price.

Jade Green Metallic. I looked for a long time to find a Carrera coupe in this color and when I found one it had a bad carfax. Love the color.

Look how that thing is parked. The driver couldn't even get it between the lines. Sloppy... this is what I think of when I think of Panamera drivers. They can't even park the friggen things!

I suspect that the driver intentionally angled the vehicle to avoid door dings.
Patina that can be avoided.

We did Ocean Jade for a few owners many years ago, and in fact still have an Ocean Jade rear Boxster bumperette shot on our site today in our flash video opening!

That might have bought him a little room on the driver's door, but the tail on the passenger side is now especially vulnerable to a kid piling out of the back door of an SUV and whacking the hell out of the car. Another consideration is that the angle parking will piss off some jerk who will take a key to the side of the car.

It's always a roll of the dice. I seek out protected places. When I go to the airport, I am usually lucky enough to find my special spot in the ramp - a space that has a big concrete beam on each side of the spot! It's a longer ways from the terminal, so most people don't park in that spot. Keeps my Tahoe safe.

Nice. Jade green is such a sweet looking color on a Porsche. In 1998 or 1999 Porsche converted 2 Carrera 4 cars to run on desert dirt roads. The conversion included installing lift kits to jack the cars a bit. One of those cars was in Jade Green. Dang, I wish I owned that car.
