Bizarre...looks like whoever has the camera guy wins...should be the other way around. I take from this video that it's a close call. Before buying the cls, I tried the Panamera and for almost twice the price, I actually found the car inferior to the MB in many aspects: handling, room and general feel. The panamera almost felt like I was driving an SUV...certainly not what I expected from a Porsche.

i just went on the AMG website again and yes the red calipers is a PP optioned car, so unlike the one we are seeing here its not a PP, if it had the ceramic breaks then we would have doubts if it was or wasn't a PP.

Actually, just to clarify this, you can order the calipers to be supplied in silver color for the PP packaged cars. It is code B06. The red calipers are code U70.
So you can't tell if the car has the PP package just by looking at the brakes. I guess there are many people who like to be incognito. :-)

My rims are the other option and my car is PP maybe it is a PP as GMW clarified it in his post, will have to pop the hood and see if it's cf engine cover I raced a panamera turbo when my car was stock and I walked all over him badly never tried with an S.

Faster is not always better IMHO... I have driven the PTT many times--- its a very impressive drive from launch to handling. The car feels great at high speeds (so does the CLS but the PTT is marginally better) And for me, the looks are growing. Pricing is steeper but money is relative.
