Call it a blessing or call it blashpemy, Porsche's four-door Panamera is here to stay. And despite an odd angle here and there, it has a certain charm about it. If you're a believer, or even if you're in doubt, Porsche has launched a new Panamera Configurator that lets you see what you can do to improve on its basic design.

The example above - a well-outfitted $143,110 example of the Porsche Panamera Turbo - shows that there's a lot of flexibility in the online design tool. There are some limitations as well, however.

It will give you a photo of the car you've built updated with the trim level, exterior color, wheel option and interior choice, but smaller adjustments - such as painted intakes, diffusers or rear apron - aren't included, leaving your imagination to fill in the details.

In total, however, the tool is a handy way to explore the options the Panamera offers, all the way from the $89,800 base S model to the $93,800 4S and on to the $132,600 Turbo. Options can quickly boost those prices, however, with a full slate of options bumping the base model up to $150,000 and beyond. How much for a fully-optioned Turbo? Open up that wallet, because it will run you right up against the $200,000 mark.

A wide range of options are available inside and out, including a choice of birch, mahogany, aluminum and carbon fiber interior elements, a range of custom and premium paint colors, four sets of wheels and more audio equipment than you could shake a 300-CD case at.

To see for yourself, and build your own Panamera, check out the Panamera's model page and click the 'build your own' link for the model you want.

    Two weeks ago I got an invite to go to my local dealer and spec out a Panamera. I now know it was a dry run for what is available on their website.

    The interesting part was the level of enthusiasm the sales force had. I could'nt tell if it was genuine as they feel the car is a sure fire winner or nervous that they may have a bad egg on their hands, just an observation on my part.

    This is an example of a car which solely relies on the brand image to justify it's existence. It's a disaster of a car and will leave a scar in Porsche's history.

    A neat option I found was the Sport Exhaust System.
    "Features modified main silencers and specially designed sports tailpipes. The "sport sound" is activated via an additional switch in the center console."
