Is A Panamera Cabrio In Your Future?

Porsche is still planning to build a four-door convertible version of the Panamera, a series of patent applications obtained by Autocar has revealed.

Recent comments from Porsche insiders indicated the car had been cancelled, but renewals and fresh patent applications in the United States indicate otherwise.

The new car has a practical four-door body that, without a traditional B-pillar, has required substantial stiffening to the Panamera’s floorpan and bulkheads to ensure sufficient structural rigidity and integrity.

It was cancelled- not gonna happen. German car companies get patents all the time and then change their minds. A good example would be when BMW patented the "555i" name and everyone thought for a short time this would be the new V8 F10.

Now we know better.
