    I can’t decide on this one. Maybe I want it, maybe I don’t.

    I’m not sure either. It seems to me that the little streak fold across the driver’s door is trying too hard. Like the designer came to car design from cartooning. “Let’s indicate speed!

    I think you have to say to yourself: omg, it’s a sedan!

    I know–I’ve been saying that. I actually like it that they’re making a sedan. I think I might want that Maserati sedan more than this one, though. I guess I’ll just have to go out and pick one.

    Yes, that is quite nice, also. So many choices….

    I’m in the “no” category on that one. It looks too much like a Buick.

    It looks like a person whose skin is too tight due to several facelifts.

    The Rapide, Panamera and Estoque all look like they’re trying to be a four-door version of their supercar big brother. The Rapide nearly works, but not quite. The other two? Not so much.

    The Maserati Quattroporte doesn’t try to be a big ugly Gran Tourismo and it’s all the better for it.

    Can you get a decent bike rack for any of them? I don’t fancy losing my Cannondale when I’m doing 190 down the autobahns ;-)

    And Daryl, that’s the best description of the Panamera I’ve ever seen :-)
