Anyone here have real ownership experience? I’m thinking of replacing my Taycan. I’m not worried about the weight since I have other cars for driving enrolment. I love the idea of a V8 with some electric range for city driving so I’m between the M5 and the Panamera. Most reviews say the M5 as it’s more dynamic and less dull. Would appreciate feedback from actual owners.

Also after the massive hit I took on the Taycan I’m worried about depreciation. Presumably this will be the same again?

Picked mine up back end of June. I wanted another V8 (was in a X6 M50i) but was tired of the 3 fill ups per month.

Does exactly what I need it to do. Elec mode for around town short journeys, petrol for longer distances and a V8+717bhp for when you want to open it up.

It's running over 40mpg since new with about 1,100 miles on it now.

Great performance and dynamics, people moan about weight but unless you're tracking it you don't notice that on the road.

A lot of hate for this when it first came out but that seems to have all went quiet.
