Hey J,
Have not seen you on the forum in some time. I had a Panny V6 as a loaner car for a week. It was very impressive in acceleration for a V6. I drove it to LA a few times and was stuck in traffic, the seats were no good for long periods of seat time. For short spurts around town driving its great, but for long distance its not. I have a E350 Bluetec with massage seats and I get 42mpg hwy. It is not a sporty drive but it can go with its 400lb tq, and the sport pkg gives some decent handling. Its a great DD for the money, $600/mo; month lease and great mpg.
The lack of 3 seats in the back may become very limiting for you and the whole family at some point in the panny.

Interesting you say the seats weren't very comfortable. Will def have to spend some time in them to see.
Even though we are a family of 5, the panny having only 2 seats in the rear isn't really a problem. To go to school each morning, my 10 year old sits in the front and two younger ones in the back. On weekends with the whole family, we always take wife's escalade anyway.
Thanks to all of you who posted. Glad to see there are some drivers here.
