might have to go back to M5 again sooner than I thought!

What you need is the now defunct R63 AMG

Yep, and that's why when rich Asian kids move to the US for school they get to upgrade and buy Ferrari and Lambo because it's the the same price they pay for a M5 back home.

US really is a heaven for car enthusiasts.

Not sure about NA market, but the cup holder covers shown in your original pictures are a zero cost optional extra in U.K. market. Should be standard as they otherwise look low rent IMHO and saves having to fork out as dealer fit. Can understand the sports cars being stripped down; Panamera should have more equipment as standard to offset depreciation.

Prefer this interior to g30 and w213 and bodes well for next gen Cayenne which would be my choice over Panamera.

Very very pretty. Hope it goes into the new cayenne. I'm not really a sedan person.

I saw the new Panamera at the LA Autoshow this week. Definitely way better than the first gen. I was far most impressed by the interior. It looks like a spaceship in there. The RSR was cool too, but I was hoping they would have a 911R but they didn't, oh well.

Interior is indeed nice, but I just don't like sloped back cars, to be fair, not a fan of RS7 nor CLS.
