2017 Porsche Panamera 4S

Stuttgart’s latest four-door is just like the original—in name only.

Remembering David E.

UNLIT ARTURO FUENTE in hand, I scanned my home library’s shelves for something to peruse while enjoying an afternoon cigar.

Dreams Delivered

IT’S CHILLY AND gray, and reasonably hard rain is coming down, casting a pall over the otherwise lush, rugged beauty of this German-flavored slice of Switzerland. A terrible day to drive, a great day to be driven. I’m in the backseat of the all-new Rolls-Royce Phantom, and I roll down the double glazed acoustic-glass window to get a quick blast of fresh Swiss air. A cacophony of wind and water rudely intrudes into the cabin. Enough of that. The metal window button is cold to the touch when I press it, and as the window hits the seal it’s as if a set of noise-canceling headphones has suctioned over the car. Time to recline the seat, let my head hit the pillow, and enjoy the magic carpet ride.

The 33-Year Engagement

THIRTY-THREE YEARS. That’s how long I’ve been in this business—test-driving cars, writing about cars, learning about cars, and telling curious onlookers in the next lane, “This is not my car.” But never could I have guessed, way back in 1984, what wonders would await in the automotive world of 2017.

Hitting The Break

AS I WRITE THIS, IT HAS BEEN precisely 47 days since I last drove an automobile. Translation: It’s been 47 days in Hell.
