It may even begin to steal market share away from Maserati as the new Panamera is retailing for less than $90,000. Not only is the new design really slick-looking, but the interior is very spacious for a sports car like the Panamera S. Definitely come by the Holbert Motor Cars dealership to test drive one today.

Have you Seen the 2010 Porsche Panamera S?

luxury vehiclesThe sleek and savvy 2010 Porsche Panamera S is one vehicle that will turn your head. If you have been wanting the sportiness of a Porsche and the convenience of a four-door sedan, this luxury vehicle is the perfect car for you. And it only took the company 78 years to offer it!

The 2010 Panamera is the first four-door sedan offered by the German luxury automaker. These reviewers were invited to Germany to take the 2020 Panamera for one of its first runs and they did exactly what I would have done had I been so lucky. They zoomed across the Autobahn, careened through the Bavarian Alps and took leisurely drivers through the beautiful and serene Alpine villages and towns. During their excursion, they got the sports car up to 170 miles per hour. I don’t know about you, but that’s more than twice as fast as I have ever driven!

But how does the new 2010 Porsche Panamera S really drive? We know it can go fast, but is it a smooth ride? The reviewers were extremely pleased with the handling on the various terrains. The S trim Panamera also comes with a rear spoiler which retracts until it is flush with the body once the vehicle gets above 55 miles per hour. At 100 mph, the wing angle goes up to 5 degrees and at 127 mph, the spoiler deflects to 14 degrees, its maximum.

Don’t miss out on this one-of-a-kind luxury sports car. You may have lived without it this long, but can you really say it’s been living if you don’t have the 2010 Porsche Panamera S?

Audi S5 Coupe Review

There’s nothing quite like the feel of a turbocharged engine, and the Audi S5 Coupe ranks right up there at the top of the list when it comes to satisfying that urge for power. This high-performance luxury coupe is ready to take on anything with a supercharged 4.2-liter V8 that puts out a stunning 354 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque – and it looks incredibly gorgeous while it’s at it.

Driving enthusiasts will find the Audi gives them plenty to love. The heavier set of the car makes it feel almost like a touring vehicle, but it handles so sharply and precisely that the feel is more sporty than sedate. The traction is fantastic with AWD, and the power steering is extremely responsive, needing only a touch to get you cruising down the right road. The acceleration feels amazing, and it’ll get from zero to 60 in just under 5 seconds.

Though the S5 certainly holds its own when it comes to the engine wars, when you buy a luxury vehicle you’re in it as much for the looks of the beast as the feel of the drive. Thankfully, the Audi S5 doesn’t leave you wanting in either department. The exterior is so sleek and beautiful you’ll want to keep it in your house as a piece of art, while the interior simply oozes luxury, with napa leather upholstery, heated power sport seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and a sleek dash-mounted control system with satellite radio and auxiliary jack.

The front seats are part of what make the driving experience of the Audi S5 so good, with a low seat and a high cowl that are ideal for cruising. The rear seats have been given a surprising – and welcome – amount of attention, considering this is a sport car. They’re not terribly roomy, but they have their own sets of climate controls, and the rear seatback folds down for more storage space. It’s not often you come across a sport car that thinks of utility features like being able to pack a larger suitcase, but part of luxury is having your car do whatever you need it to do. Audi delivers on that desire with aplomb.

If you’re looking for extra fancy features, we can hardly think of a one that the Audi S5 has left out: it comes with power heated exterior mirrors, tri-zone climate control, a panoramic sunroof, electronic parking brake, rain-sensing wipers, xenon headlamps, 19-inch alloy wheels, foglamps, Bluetooth, and Multi Media Interface with an extremely convenient control system mounted on either the console or the steering wheel. And that’s just standard – upgrade to a higher trim level and features like navigation systems, a Bang & Olufsen sound system, driver memory functions and more are available.

Short story: when it comes to luxury cars, the Audi S5 simply can’t be beat for looks, luxury or performance. There are cheaper cars, sure. But you weren’t looking for cheap – you were looking for priceless. You found it. Check out our latest Audi promotions at Holberts today.

Audi and Philadelphia – Enjoying the Lap of Luxury

There is a good feeling that comes with driving your Audi cars around town in Philadelphia. You get looks at stop lights and you simply appreciate the luxurious appeal that only Audi can provide. It’s also the best way to get to your favorite elite places throughout “The City of Brotherly Love.” Here are a few places where class and luxury abound in Philly.

Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts
This upper class facility has a “discreet brick exterior” that goes up to a glass vaulted rooftop that extends another 150 feet. The views from the top are absolutely extraordinary, but the real fun happens every weekend because you can either catch a jazz band, the Philadelphia Orchestra or some other live event that you will enjoy.

Rodin Museum
For art lovers, the Rodin Museum offers some of the greatest works by the 19th century sculptor for which the museum is named. Some works include the ever-popular The Thinker, The Gates of Hell and Eternal Springtime, just to name a few. In addition, there are more than 120 works from this French icon.

These are just two of the elite facilities you can appreciate any time of the year in Philadelphia. When you arrive in your Audi cars, you know you will fit right in!

The 2010 Volkswagen GTI has Great New Features

The new 2010 Volkswagen GTI really has a lot to offer. It has a sporty and aggressive look to it, with its 18 inch alloys and new honeycomb grill. The GTI offers a 6-speed automatic transmission, which gives you a smooth and comfortable ride. It comes with one touch window controls, as well as, heated mirrors, both of which come standard.

The new, four door Volkswagen GTI offers a really cool new standard feature that I have to point out. It has bluetooth controls located on the steering wheel to make it easy for drivers to establish a wireless connection while on the road. Features like this make the new GTI very practical, yet it’s still very sporty and quick off the start.

We know that buying a car brand spanking new isn’t for everyone, which is why we do our best to offer some great pre-owned vehicle specials. So if a new car isn’t something you need at the moment, definitely check out our pre-owned specials.

Some Tire Terms You Should Know

Taking proper care of your tires is the best way to get the most life out of them. But do you know what people are talking about when they use “tire lingo”? Here area some common terms you may run into when talking about tire care so you can care for them properly.

PSI – The abbreviation PSI stands for “pounds per square inch.” This is the way tire pressure is measured. When you use a tire gauge to measure pressure, it shows the number of PSI. The recommended PSI is also shown on the sidewall of most tires to take out the guesswork.

Valve Stem – This is probably the most well known part of the tire because it is the part you use to add air. It is the little rubber part that sticks through the wheel.

Sidewall – The sidewall of the tire is just that – the side part of the tire. This is the part where all of the information about the tire is listed, such as the PSI, the tire size, manufacturer and more.

Tread – This is the part that makes contact with the road. Keep an eye on the tire’s tread to ensure your car has enough traction in various driving conditions.

Learn the proper terms and methods for maintaining your tires because the better you take care of the tires on your Audi cars, the better they will take care of you.

A Brief Guide to Auto Warranties

When purchasing a new or used car, one of the main decisions you have to make concerns the warranty or warranties you want to purchase. At first, they might all sound like a good idea – you know, just to make sure you are covered. But some of them may be unnecessary depending on your specific situation. Here is a quick guide to some common auto warranties and what they are designed to cover.

Basic Warranty
These types of warranties generally cover everything on your vehicle that is not subject to wear and tear. Although these are typically standard warranties, be sure to read it before agreeing to it so there are no surprises in the future.

Extended Warranty
Extended warranties are not as common as basic warranties but they can still be helpful. If you plan on keeping your VW cars or any other brand for that matter longer than the basic warranty covers, you may want to consider an extended warranty. Just be sure to read the coverage and compare the cost before deciding if it’s worth it or not.

Luxury Auto Warranty
This type of warranty covers luxury items within the vehicle, such as a GPS, phone, DVD player and more. These are fine to have, but most items can be replaced for less than the cost of the warranty price over time.

Warranties are sometimes a good idea to consider when purchasing your new Porsche. But before agreeing to any warranty, consider the options and calculate the amount of money you could simply save in a bank account rather than paying towards a warranty. That way, if nothing bad ever happens, you can keep that money and it has even gained interest!
