If you are a car enthusiast it always
pays to have a camera handy, especially if you are in an area where
manufacturers are known to test new models.
In the past I have spotted numerous prototypes out testing in Death Valley California, in nearby Yosemite and even a Mini prototype testing in murky weather in Oxfordshire.
This all came to mind when I found Hysterical Bertha’s photographs of the new Porsche Panamera – the new four-door Porsche that is expected to be launched soon – on Flickr.

The Panamera seems very little disguised with just a little disguise around the front and rear lights and an attempt to put a fake squarer line for the rear windows.
My own scoops in recent years have included the BMW M6 Convertible snapped while on holiday in Death Valley and the Mercedes McLaren prototype, also in Death Valley.
The BMW M6 Cabriolet prototype makes a sharp exit from the Furnace Creek filling station in Death Valley.
One of three Hummer H3 test mules at Furnace Creek, presumably hot weather testing.
The McLaren Mercedes out for final testing in Death Valley
