NEW PANAMERA ROCKS OLD PALM
The Unveiling of the Braman Porsche Pan- amera was held at a private Mediterranean estate in the Old Palm Community in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. This exquisite event attracted a crowd of over 400 Club Braman Porsche owners, enthusiasts, friends, me- dia, and potential Porsche owners. Guests were welcomed onto the property with a red carpet entrance that led to an array of high‐line Porsches, including 911’s, a Box- ster, Cayman, Cayenne, and Macan.
Entering the home, guests were photo- graphed on a step and repeat alongside the lovely and gracious Braman Motorcars Brand Ambassador, Celine Pelo – former Ms. United States. After check-in, ra e en- try (for a trip to win a vacation to Ritz-Carl- ton St. Thomas!), and escort to a lavish outdoor terrace venue for cocktails and hors d'oeuvres.
An apropos display of Porsche nesse enriched the evening, including a video showcasing Porsche’s theme for the unveil, “Courage Changes Everything.” Guests were enchanted by “mermaids” who frolicked beneath the bridge – constructed special for that evening - that created a pathway across the pool as anticipation of the big reveal mounted. To open the show, Celine Pelo and Connie McGinnis, Director of Sales of Old Palm Real Estate, pulled the winning ticket for Ritz‐Carlton door prize to winner Abby Keller.
Finally, the grand nale kicked o with a mind‐blowing video and audio show with visuals showcasing the Panamera under- scored by a “mash‐up” to Bruno Mars’ hit song “24K Magic.” The Panamera was then exposed as the sounds of a dynamic band singing a word play on the Van Halen song “Panama,” re‐worked as “Panamera” rever- berated in the background. The crowd was electri ed as the cover was pulled, reveal- ing the stunning 2017 Porsche Panamera Turbo!
Braman General Manager, Stephen Gross- man, then thanked the crowd and intro- duced some of the sta who had brought the party to fruition. He then introduced Porsche General Manager, Raj Alexander, who was poised across the way accom- panied by 5 brand new Panameras for real touch and feel! The crowd gathered to experience rsthand the magni cent machine while the band rocked for the remainder of the night. And oh, what a night it was!
