Porsche Panamera

Car lover husband's assessment - Porsche Boxster, Panamera, Mercedes-Benz SL

SL goes to the hospital

My husband recently purchased a 1997 SL500, which is old and has been neglected for some time since the previous owner passed away, and it is in various states of disrepair. The seats are worn out, and when the roof is opened and closed, oil leaks from the roof.

They say that once the hospital visits are over (w/e), this SL will be as perfect as a new car.(BTW, I haven't even been in the passenger seat or driven yet)

How does my husband rate each car?

Come to think of it, the other day, I was thinking about the "If it was a 911, a Boxster, or a Panamera, which would you choose?"I wrote an article about the Boxster, Panamera, and SL, and I asked my husband about his evaluation of the Boxster, Panamera, and SL. My husband said, "It's hard to say...it depends on the situation you use it in.

(1) Ashiyu Driveway (moderate mountain road)

Boxster: 5
Panamera: 4.9
SL: 3

(2) Rural National Highway

Boxster: 4
Panamera: 4.8
SL: 5

(iii) Expressway

Boxster: 4.3
Panamera: 5
SL: 4.8

4) Street Riding

Boxster: 4.5
Panamera: 4.3
SL: 4.8

What if I can only choose one of them?

He added, "If you could only own one of these three cars, which one would you choose?" I asked.

But the one that balances everything is the Panamera, so I guess I'll have to go with the Panamera.

He said.

Oh...I'm glad. If they say they are going to keep the Boxster, it will be impossible for me to go out with my family...(laugh)...I think again that the Panamera is the way to go these days.
