Big Guy's take on Panamera
I have been reading all of the threads on the Panamera since it came out but rarely have I seen anything about "Will I fit in the car?" that is usually reserved for the 911/Lambo/Ferrari threads.
I went to a small car show today at Porsche of Nashua(NH) I got to jump in various Porsche cars. I am the size of a NFL Tight End, 6'5 270lbs wear a 52L suit coat 57 inch chest 40 inch waist. Trying to fit into cars is a Bi*ch!!! Funny thing is I drive a 2007 Subaru Legacy and fit great!
Let me say, the Panamera is VERY comfortable for a guy my size but there is NO way in hell someone is going to sit behind me except for my 6yr old daughter. I didn't even have the seat all the way back which really surprised me. I did move the driver seat up and jumped in back. If the driver was an average size woman or < 6ft guy I had plenty of room, seats were great. Getting in/out of the back was tight but if it's my car ain't never gonna be back there!
The car was a P4 with stock seats, I would love to see what the 14 or 18 way seats feel like. The stock seats were a tad firm so going on a long cruise I could see them feeling not so great on the rump.
I also jumped in a Carrera 4S and same thing, the car really fit nice when I was in but getting in/out was not so smooth.
Just thought I would help out my fellow giants who may be researching this car.

So you and I show up at the local buffet and they close the doors on us?
I was on a business trip to Chicago 3 yrs ago and my co worker was my height and had 50lbs on me. We went to Texas De Brazil, I think the manager started to sweat. LOL
