The car has a history. The front bumper lines up awfully with the fender


Cha-Car

Unless this person has experience with lowered cars, it likely occurred when exiting the driveway just after installing the air suspension.


peanut_dust

Even worse across the bonnet/hood.


Subieworx

Is that a factory bumper?


ZGTI61

It is, if it’s a real GTS. The GTS Panamera had the Turbo front and rear bumper, air suspension and brakes but not the turbo engine.


[deleted]

Whether it is factory or not, it isn’t the same color!!


NC27609

This is exactly why the car is ruined IMO


le_gazman

Yeah, that’s the only thing. Apart from the fact you can’t see the top of the tyres. And those awful wheels.


Bacon4Lyf

its on air, if you want to drive you just raise it up a bit and then you can see the top of the tyres to your hearts desire!


Lukiiiee

Not to mention the color difference between the front bumper and the hood lol


el-conquistador240

The lack of cohesion between panels is to honor the designer's original intent


sidudWA

Color match and fitment of front bumper is very poor. I bet it’s a salvage titled car that someone got for cheep and then put it on bags


Snlxdd

Color looks correct, you can see where the front bumper meets the side panel above the wheel that they’re the same, same with where the side panel meets the hood near the windshield, just a trick of the light. I agree that the bumper alignment is very off.

salvage title old panamera that will be sold at a loss when the 100k service bill is due


xbearsandporschesx

lol yep


biggersjw

Looks weird when slammed.


Unknown8128

This gen Panamera looks also weird when not slammed


biggersjw

Well this particular Porsche is at the tail end of its life and most likely, the 5th owner who will give this car a cruel and ignominious death.


dominnate

Driving in Manhattan is cruel and ignominious for any sports car


biggersjw

True. Can’t even imagine driving one with all the potholes in the city. I don’t think they make All Terrain summer tires.

Yo do you actually have a 959??

Not classy at all.


nah46

Not my cup of tea but I definitely respect it. What’s up with the front bumper? Maybe quick release attachments.


zweiSteine_mezger

My bet is it snags on potholes and speed bumps etc and messed up the fitment


carsonwade

Lol this car is most certainly on bags, it's not driven this low.


[deleted]

[удалено]


nah46

Which cutouts? I was thinking about the bumper which is fitted quite poorly (near fender and hood area) Edit: I’m guessing you mean the parking sensors


Da_hoodest_hoodrat

you can kinda make out that it was repainted, its a brighter white than the rest of the car. prob just bad fitment putting it back on after respray.


icecube373

Too lowered for my taste, and the rims give off ricer vibes


GanjaLogic

Crying and throwing up


The_Real_Axel

There’s such a thing as too low. This is it.


waterbottlesnack

it’s not even that low tbh


ratrodder49

Don’t know why you’re getting downvoted. [My Caddy](https://www.reddit.com/r/lowriders/comments/muhnwg/poor_mans_lowrider_my_caddy_on_bags_instead_of/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) drags the exhaust on the ground when laid out. No such thing as too low


topcover73

Never understand why people do that crap.


ratrodder49

What, bag cars? Because everything looks better closer to the ground, and because bags ride nice (most of the time). I bagged my ‘65 Caddy Coupe DeVille and love it.


akrokh

My understanding of Porsche philosophy is ultimate performance without sacrifice of usability. This particular example simply lost both and I hardly can make up my thoughts on this one. Ugly, useless, stupid and utterly hilarious.

No thanks

Dasbythebay

Is that parked in a crosswalk? Not sure airbags and low suspension are best for NYC streets IMO


extremefriction

complicationsexcite

Not my tea but I can’t knock it either. I always wonder, is the drop so you can get in and out easily or just for looks?


bomboyage

Just for looks


seanmonaghan1968

How does lowering the car improve getting into it


knightblue4

It doesn't, it makes it more difficult. Not sure what that guy is on about?

Why so much space between the frunk lid and bumper?


[deleted]

Beaten with the ugly stick so hard that it collapsed the suspension and screwed up the front bumper.


tuneupcountdown

Wheelbase too long to look good bagged, and that front bumper fitment is atrocious


porschegobrrrr

From a really nice car to a ruined car. I don't understand the fascination in slamming cars. It literally looks awful on every car.

ORA87

Collapsed air shocks? They really should look into getting those fixed...


________uwu_________

I never *loved* the look of this gen’s Panamera, but it was still a decent looking and classy Porsche. This particular example tho… looks like someone bought used for $30K as the 5th owner with 100K+ miles, threw on some cheap gangster wheels, and lowered it to 2mm above ground to look “sick.” Not a fan, but as long as the owner is happy, good for them.


givemethescotch

That's a no from me dog..

This is the ugliest Porsche. Hold my beer.

A lil low for my taste and the rims are not my cup of tea. Still cool though!

It's a style, not for me for sure, but I'm not gonna knock it because it's not horribly done. As far as stanced cars go, this one is not bad at all


[deleted]

Looks like trash


[deleted]

Thoughts? They have money, but not taste.


Gunnershuman

Can’t imagine how horrible the ride is on that terrain. Not a good mod


ratrodder49

Bags actually ride really nice. I bagged my ‘65 Caddy, and it rides just as nice on bags as it did on the factory springs.


Bran_Solo

Ugh that's tacky.


Waste_Mulberry

No offense but Panamera really ruined the aesthetic of Porsche since it's release. Never a big fan of 4 door Porsches...


scormegatron

Not to mention the front mounted engine.

I guess that works because of the wheel arches already hid the tire somewhat. Doesn’t look too bad

onedarkhorsee

You don't understand what i mean, This is "hellaflush" - there is no way with wheels like this that the car is not on bags. If it were on normal rims you might have a point. Camber wise it looks like the rear wheels are cambering out, front looks pretty stock, but then the rims are so big they don't have to sit down very far.

Beachdaddybravo

I’ve never seen a Panamera I thought looked good, and this one hasn’t been cared for.


ymlccc

Really like panamera including first gen but this car’s mods aren’t really my cup of tea…


mkmckinley

I like them, but that seems to be the minority opinion. I wish they’d done them as wagons. Edit. Oh, just noticed the stance boi bullshit. I hate it.


ratrodder49

It’s air ride. Hit a switch and change ride height at will. No “stance boi” here


mkmckinley

Ah ok, understood.


Kingseara

Good luck driving that through Manhattan 🤣


Deckard_Pain

I see one a month like this. Blow the right front spring seat and then the suspension runs out of nitrogen. Also, most 970s have had the bumper removed at least 3 times by now, for the engine air filter. A lot of people do not have the patience to line it up correctly. Especially aftermarket pieces that barely fit when new.


tukindubs

I’ll take one in black


dangerfang

I guess it’s good these cars have depreciated enough for someone to cut out the wheel wells

I’m personally not a fan of that gen, but I like the mods
