VIDEO: E63 vs Panamera turbo vs 4S vs 911 C4 vs S8

I would say the E63 performed well if you look at the competition...

Amazing video! Both the Panarama and the e63 are beasts on track! Really glad to see the E hanging there with its 4wd competitors.

The Panamera in the race is a non-turbo S (400hp). Just wanted to throw that out there since the title of this post and the video caption incorrectly states that it is a Panamera Turbo.

There were 2 Panameras in the race if you didn't notice, one is turbo and one is not.

For the hundreds of people that would like to see what a 63 should shift like watch this video. Amazing had I not seen the star on the wheel I would have not known the in car vid was a 6.3 tach..

Great find Kip! Subscribing to the Best Motoring series. The GT-R's that they run against top of the line Porsche and the Lambo's is impressive as well.

The E63 AMG looks deceiving (I saw a video where top gear drove it and thought going around corners would be less than stellar), but this video puts all doubts to bed!

The Panamera chasing the E63 for the entire second half of this video is a TURBO at the very last curve the E63 gives 2nd place to the PANAMERA TURBO.
