TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2018 Genesis G90 is the modern interpretation of a luxo-barge—and it’s a great value, all things considered.

The 2018 Porsche Panamera is a worthy four-seater for the vaunted Porsche badge.

TCC Likes

Among the best-riding cars ever
Hushed, silent operation
Strong engine choices

Enviable composure
Wide range of engines
Beautiful inside

TCC Dislikes

Limited brand cachet
Fun to drive? Nope
Design isn’t terribly distinctive

Phenomenally expensive
Not a total knockout outside
Perhaps too many choices?
