Question is though, is it a station wagon? http://jalopnik.com/hell-yes-the-porsche-panamera-sport-turismo-is-coming-t-1792878185
Seems the major car publications, Autoweek, Car and Driver and Motor Trend are calling it a wagon. Mainstream is recognizing a wagon? VICTORY!!!!
I don't particularly care whether Porsche (or anyone) calls this a wagon. I do have a problem with the way Porsche is designing / styling their 4-door vehicles, with severe curves in the greenhouse area. This severely limits passenger headroom and gives a claustrophobic feel when sitting inside.
an automobile with one or more rows of folding or removable seats behind the driver and no luggage compartment but an area behind the seats into which suitcases, parcels, etc., can be loaded through a tailgate. Also called, especially British, estate car. Origin: 1925–30, Americanism
