I'm A Baller - Chapter 205
Chapter 205: Limited Edition Porsche
Porsche’s Panamera was created to solve the problem of the lack of spacious models in Porsche’s high-end market.
But before Panamera could be mass-produced, Porsche solved the problem of spacious models with Cayenne, and solved it very well.
Panamera was completely embarrassed.
As a four-door “sports sedan”, what was the significance of my existence?
Those who knew would not say anything, and those who did not would stare at the Porsche brand and smacked their lips, which was basically the case.
As a Porsche sales person, Wang Yan did not need to understand the meaning of those parameters. She only needed to look at the enthusiasm of the customers and the actual orders, and she could do it in her heart.
When a customer opened his mouth to look at the Panamera, the actual transaction rate was at least 50% higher than when a customer wanted to look at 911.
It was just that exaggerating.
And the Panamera Exclusive Series 4.8T was an exceptional pearl in the Panamera Series.
The direct translation of Exclusive Series was ”exclusive series”.
In Porsche, they called this model a high-end custom-made car.
The new model was released at the Los Angeles Auto Show last year, and it was limited to 100 cars worldwide.
As for the selling price…
It was twice the price of the 14-model Panamera.
He didn’t look at any other models, but asked for the limited edition when he opened his mouth. What did it mean?
Wang Yan was extremely excited, but she was also a little nervous. She hurriedly put on a smile that was even more enthusiastic than politeness.
“Mr. Wang, did you come because you heard about our event?”
“What event?” Wang Yan was stunned.
When Wang Yan saw it, she immediately knew that her thoughts were wrong, and she had mixed emotions.
“Mr. Wang. Last month, a large-scale car exhibition was held at the Window of the World. Our Porsche 4S shop specially transferred an ES4.8T, and now it’s being displayed in the shop.
“The one in our stop is the only one in the central region, and there won’t even be more than three in the entire country. After all, it’s a high-order edition with a global limited edition of 100 cars.
Recently, many people have specially come to visit this car!”
As she spoke, she nervously observed Wang Yan’s reaction.
She wasn’t telling the truth.
It was true that 15 limited-edition models were rare, but the domestic stock wasn’t really that low. Just in The North, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen, there were at least eight of them.
After all, ordinary people could not afford them.
And the high-end customers’ recognition of the four-door Porsche was mostly concentrated on the Cayenne. Panamera was not well liked.
Therefore, although all 100 cars were booked at the Los Angeles Auto Show, a considerable number of them were the orders of car dealers from various countries, which were now slowly circulating.
The reason why Lin Baizhou specifically mentioned this model was because he was certain of its availability in the market–there was one in the capital 4S shop.
To the public, it was not for sale, the players understood.
However, Wang Yan really did not know that this car was a limited edition model, and his heart was instantly moved.
The first car was limited edition, it was very cool…
He replied without batting an eye, “I’m not interested in viewing other people’s things. It’s good that you guys have it, let’s go and take a look at the car.”
How domineering!
Wang Yan’s mood instantly brightened. She hurriedly led Wang Yan to the central exhibition stand.
However, Wang Yan’s target for this trip was displayed on the lifting and rotation chassis–a 15-year limited edition high-order Panamera.
At the first glance, the mysterious and deep black body of the car was as eye-catching as a black hole.
When the body of the car started to rotate, Wang Yan noticed that the car door was actually a maroon paint with a gradual change.
The metallic maroon color of the front door gradually changed to black as it moved to the back door. Finally, it completely merged with the body of the car.
It was beautiful!
Wang Yan felt that it was very stunning. Black itself could satisfy his low-key needs, but the maroon color added a bit of fashion luster to the low-key. It was great.
Wang Yan timely introduced, “Mr. Wang, the 15 limited-edition car paint was completely hand-painted by Porsche’s professional technicians. You can’t see such an effect on mass-produced cars.”
It was indeed beautiful.
Wang Yan nodded and continued to look at the body of the car.
How should I put it…
On the overall car model, Wang Yan could not see any big difference from the 14 model Panamera.
Next to it was a 14 model Turbo 4.8T. If one had to say that there was a difference, it would be the exhaust pipe. The 14 was square, and the 15 was round.
Then the car butt was a little different, and the 15 model car paint seemed to be brighter.
Other than that, Chief Wang really could not distinguish the difference using his naked eyes.
Of course, it was very beautiful overall.
There was no doubt on Porsche’s, Ferrari’s and other supercar brands’ industrial design abilities. It all depended on individual’s preference of style.
Wang Yan preferred a more fierce style.
His look was such. He was always afraid of being too soft.
It was the same with writing. After the master-level hard-pen calligraphy was integrated with his personal style, there was a hint of sharpness in the middle, especially in the vertical end, which was like a sword.
As for Panamera, how should he put it…the lines were very fashionable, but they were a little soft and round.
If it was a serious supercar, Wang Yan would definitely pass it without even thinking.
But as a daily use car, a five-door four-seater coupe, its appearance was very suitable for Wang Yan’s low-key needs.
It was not as flamboyant and sharp. It looked good, but it did not cut the eyes. It did not need to be tense all the time as if it wanted to tear something apart.
Considering its use, it was very perfect–at least in terms of appearance.
Then, the remaining problems were only the handling and comfort.
“Mr. Wang, this car’s…”
“Can I test drive it?”
Wang Yan interrupted Wang Yan…so awkward, why didn’t I just call you 93% car sales girl?
In short 93 car.
Chief Wang didn’t want to hear her reading out the parameters. It was meaningless.
If it looked good, he would test drive it. If it was comfortable, everything would be okay. Everything else was just a story. The godly tycoon didn’t need to care about those miscellaneous things.
The 93 was interrupted. She was not angry at all. On the contrary, she was even more excited.
It was very difficult to fake one’s imposing manner. Whether one could afford it or in the mood or not, a few words from the person would reveal the truth.
“Please wait a moment, I will apply for it right away!”
The limited edition test driving process was relatively more complicated. Not everyone was qualified.
However, the exhibition hall manager had been paying attention from his side. After observing Wang Yan for God knows how long, he immediately agreed.
After getting the keys, Wang Yan waited for the lift to land. Under the care of the young lady, he sat in the driver’s seat and felt very comfortable.
The seat and steering wheel were all very comfortable.
The central control console and the dashboard appeared to be extremely complicated.
Wang Yan was just about to greet the young lady, 93 car had already taken the initiative to go around to the front passenger seat. He got into the car to show h Wang Yan the dos and don’ts.
The 15 limited edition key hole was on the left side of the steering wheel. It had to be inserted into the car to start the engine…the introduction of starting the car ended here.
The sound of the engine was very pleasing to the ear. It was a strong and deep whistle.
It was not as shocking as a real sports car. It was one level lower than a roaring car, but it was very sensational.
The young master carefully drove the new car out of the exhibition hall and arrived at the test driving venue at the back. He could not wait to start enjoying himself.
“Mr. Wang, we can start a little more gently. This limited-edition 100-kilometer acceleration is 3.9 seconds, far better than all the rest in the series…”
Before Wang Yan finished his sentence, Panamera shot out like an arrow.
