TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2015 Maserati Quattroporte offers a selection of strong twin-turbo engines and a bold look, inside and out, as well as available an available all-weather-capable all-wheel-drive system.

The 2015 Porsche Panamera keeps delivering its phenomenal balance of utility, luxury, and performance.

TCC Likes

Flowing Italian design
Tasteful, refined interior
Strong twin-turbo engines

Fantastic acceleration and impressive steering (Turbo and Turbo S)
PDK gearbox remains a benchmark
High-speed stability and handling are excellent

TCC Dislikes

Poor gas mileage
Interior not as roomy as you'd expect

Exterior styling still an acquired taste
Interior design can be busy, button-heavy
Driving aids sometimes interfere with driving feel
