ROAR, ENGINE, ROAR HOW THE 2017 PORSCHE PANAMERA IS INJECTING FIRE AND GROOVINESS INTO BOSTON'S LUXURY CAR MARKET. BY ROBERT COCUZZO Hatchback, what hatchback? The Porsche Panamera oozes sex appeal as well as pragmatism. A PORSCHE HATCHBACK WITH ROOM FOR THE KIDS— AND A 330-HORSEPOWER ENGINE THAT COMBINES SPEED AND LUXURY. BOSTONCOMMON-MAGAZINE.COM  75 Thank the almighty motor gods: Porsche has sculpted a set of wheels that just doesn't quit. The 2017 Porsche Panamera 4 Hatchback packs the sports car spirit into a sleek city whip complete with four doors, a spacious interior, and all the mystique we've come to expect from this most storied car company. When Porsche first revealed the Panamera model back in 2009, its lanky, limo-like shape made some scoff that the car company had lost its way. Back then, the sedan had that newborn giraffe look: slightly awkward and unsure of itself. But this 2017 model has fully matured, its body honed into the confident tear- drop design that's been turning heads for Porsche for nearly a hundred years. True, there's a hatch- back, but don't let that fool you. Its 3.0 liter, V6 engine gallops 330 horses that will scratch the itch of any discerning supercar connoisseur. And with a world of room in the back seats for the kiddies, the Panamera truly revolution- izes the idea of a family car. Available at Herb Chambers Porsche, 1172 Commonwealth Ave., 877-384-6233 .
