NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Porsche will build a four-door car starting in 2009, the company announced Wednesday.

To be called the Panamera, the car will have four doors and four seats but will have a swooping, coupe-like profile. It will have a front-mounted engine driving the rear wheels. Pricing for the car, which is still under development, has not been announced.

The company expects to sell at least 20,000 Panameras per year, according to the announcement, which would make it the company's most popular model by far. Porsche is currently on track to sell about 9,600 Boxster sports cars this year, about 14,000 Cayenne SUVs and about 8,000 911 sports cars.

The Panamera has been rumored for several months and alleged "spy photos" of the car have been published on the Internet and in some publications.

The car, which will be created on an entirely new fundemental architecture, will be built solely by Porsche and will not involve a joint venture with any other company. The Porsche Cayenne SUV was created in cooperation with Volkswagen which sells its own version as the Volkswagen Touareg.

"The Panamera is a perfect fit for Porsche," said Dr. Wendelin Wiedeking, president and CEO of Porsche in a prepared statement.

"It has all the typical DNA characteristics of a genuine sports car," he said. "In terms of performance, design, and driving dynamics, it meets Porsche's high standards in every respect. Through this sports coupe we are making our customers a highly attractive offer in the top performance segment."

second that.

when i had my dsm, i went to my insurance company. i told the guy what i was getting and i planned on putting liability. he said it was the same as my old car (87 corrola) and that he had one before (non turbo) and that they aren't really sports cars so it wouldn't effect my insurance.

For me to insure a EVO is only like $127/mo for others I could see triple that.

Who buys Civic SI's? Not familys thats for sure, its the young male who wants to beef up his civic and beat the hell out of it, if you didnt want to, then you would buy the dx model...

Now try insuring a convertible, turbo, sports car classified eclipse... in minnesota.
