The premium GTS version of the first-generation Panamera carried the most powerful naturally aspirated V8 engine available along with an all-wheel-drive system, Turbo-derived brakes, sport-tuned air suspension, and a SportDesign front fascia. This example comes finished in Black over a matching full leather interior and features heated front and rear seats, front-seat ventilation painted side skirts, ParkAssist, the Bose Surround Sound System, and 20” RS Spyder Design wheels in a custom black finish. It also features an upgraded valve-operated Fabspeed exhaust installed at a cost of over $4k. A lifelong California car, this Panamera GTS has been exclusively serviced through Beverly Hills Porsche and is now being offered for auction by its second owner showing approximately 31k miles on the odometer.
Compared to a standard Panamera, the GTS version receives a SportDesign front fascia as well as black trim pieces, red brake calipers, and a deployable three-piece spoiler borrowed from the Turbo model. This 2013 example comes finished in Black and features optional painted side skirts as well as custom tinted taillights, tinted windows, and a black powdercoated finish for the desireable 20” RS Spyder Design wheels. The car rides on a set of Pirelli P Zero tires showing date codes from 2019 in the rear, while the fronts have been recently replaced. The seller notes several small imperfections on the front bumper, hood, and windshield, as well as a small door ding on the left rear and a blemish on the rear bumper. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a CARFAX report showing minor damage to the left-rear end in 2017.
The cabin is appointed with black full leather upholstery complemented by high gloss black trim and a matching Alcantara headliner. Optional equipment includes heated and A/C ventilated 14-way Power Seats with memory, heated rear seats, ParkAssist with reversing camera, and the Bose Surround Sound System including a SiriusXM satellite radio tuner.
The naturally aspirated 4.8L V8 engine in the GTS produces as much as 430 HP, an increase of 30 HP over the standard Panamera S. All four wheels are driven through a 7-speed dual-clutch PDK transmission while stopping power comes from larger Turbo-derived brakes. Other standard equipment includes the Sport Chrono Package and a lowered air suspension with stiffer dampers. This example has been fitted with a custom valved Fabspeed exhaust that works in conjunction with the factory Sport Exhaust button, allowing the driver to toggle between quiet and louder settings. The car is said to have been serviced exclusively by Beverly Hills Porsche including a recent 30k-mile service with new brake pads and front rotors. An extended 5-year 65k-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty began in June of 2021 and may be transferred to the next owner.
This sale will include a clean title.

@PCARMARKET_MODERATOR Thank you PCar Team!
@Duke_dallas The listing has been corrected, thank you.
@Duke_dallas Interesting - if true, then I concur. I’ll inquire for it to be editing because I had no control over their elongated description. For transparency’s sake, I think that everyone should know about the aforementioned 2014 “refresh”:
“2014 models featured a more-teardropesque shape to the headlamps, bigger nostrils in the front fascia, a flatter liftgate window, lower mounting for the rear license plate, and revised taillamps—but you’d have to be a Panamerologist to notice without the previous-year car alongside for reference.”

@cole.smith Thanks for the response. Understood. G1 had a mid-cycle refresh in 2014. I think The listing (which I know PCAR wrote, not you) is inaccurate in saying there was a major update for 2013.
I think it’s important to note two items:
1. The wheels show dirt and acquire brake dust pretty quickly, in the photos you can see a streak across one of the wheels, this is water/soap having just been added to remove dirt, not a scratch!
2. The vehicle comes with Porsche roof racks to satisfy your ski and surf needs!
@Duke_dallas Hi Duke, the 970 G1 Chassis generation remained unchanged until June 28th 2016 when the 971 G2 was revealed in Berlin! To the best of my knowledge, all 970 vehicles are the same - apart from factory options!
Bid in the amount of $25,000
Didn’t the Gen 1 Panamera get its major update for the 2014 mode year, not 2013?
