Wednesday, December 29th, 2010
Anyone familiar with Porsche's options catalog knows that a nearly endless list of custom extras are available for the companies entire model range. However, Porsche is now offering something extra special for customers of it's fantastic four-door. Dubbed the Porsche Panamera personalization program, the PPPP incorporates styling and performance tweaks, depending on your budget and taste.
The top-rung Panamera Turbo can now be had with a Powerkit package that uses two new turbochargers and revised engine mapping to offer 40 more horsepower and 37 more pound-feet of torque over the standard Turbo, totaling 540 and 553, respectively. What's more, the Powerkit treatment includes Porsche's Sport Chrono Turbo Package, and if the car is driven in Sport Plus mode, torque output is further increased to 590 lb-ft. That's a whole lot of twist. This Holy Grail of Panameras will sprint to 62 miles per hour in just 3.9 seconds on its way to a top speed of 190 mph, yet it still manages to keep the Turbo's EPA-rated city/highway fuel economy of 15/23 miles per gallon.
Available on the full Panamera range, however, is the Porsche's new Sport Design Package which includes a unique front fascia with wider air intakes, a new rear underbody apron incorporating a new diffuser and fins, different side skirts and 20-inch Panamera Sport wheels available in a range of colors. It certainly does a lot to beef up the cars appearance, and we're quite fond of the overall treatment.You can hire a porsche panamera from us today.
