TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2016 Maserati Quattroporte is a rare sight, but shouldn't be—it's gorgeous, with sharp, Ferrari-flavored performance.

The 2016 Porsche Panamera looks like a sports car and drives like one, yet it delivers executive-level ride comfort and cabin appointments.

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

Strong, satisfying performance and handling (S and Turbo)
Super-quick PDK gearbox
Spacious rear seat

TCC Dislikes

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