Panamera is Porsche's first ever four-door sedan and it should be going into production very shortly. Price estimates sit at anywhere from the high-$50,000 range all the way up to a $100,000+ Turbo model; competing right with the BMW 7-Series, Mercedes-Benz S-Class, and Audi A8. Fast Lane Daily has also learned that Porsche will integrate their new hybrid technology as well as their exsisting all wheel drive system into later model variations of the Panamera.

These recent shots show that the prototypes are close to production; nothing compared to the Cayenne drive-train mules we saw two years ago dancing around the Nordschleife test circuit. Even with the mask covering most of the lines of this prototype, it is clear that the new Porsche flagship will feature an integration of LEDs in the headlights as well as a retractable rear-wing.

I've seen better pictures than that one. You can see masking on that car to try and hide lines. I found these pictures that I think show the car better. And, no I don't want one.

Nice. A 911 and an Aston Martin had a kid.

Sad thing is, it will probably sell well. The Cayenne currently sells more than all other models combined.

As much crap as the Cayenne got when it came out, as Leon mentioned, it sells better than all thier other cars together. It obviously hit a chord with someone.
