I've owned both, a 2018 Sport Turismo Turbo that I ordered and thought I would keep forever (it was my 4th panamera) and the least favorite. Something with the tuning, particularly the transmission was off, even in sport mode it would upshift to 5th or 6th gear by 40mph unless you had the pedal down. Also as much as people say they love wagons clearly that is not the case because no one buys them. I took a bath on the sport turismo and now drive an M8 gran coupe - the driving experience is better (I'm not talking about around a track) and the vehicle still feels special. I would argue that other people tend to think of Porsche's as more special then BMW's but I don't care what others think. I don't think you'll regret the switch
