What is it? The Porsche Panamera, now in its third-generation form, is the flagship sedan for the German maker.

What does it cost? It’s $236,000 plus on-road costs but it’s also a Porsche, so the price accelerates when you even look at the options sheet. Our car had nearly $50,000 of extras, including a passenger-side touchscreen, Neodyme (bronze) wheels and interior highlights, a sports exhaust, and a terrific Burmester sound system.
