SpeedART to Unveil Porsche Panamera-Based PS9-650 at Essen Motor Show

The Essen Motor Show, which runs from November 28 to December 6 and is best described as Europe's answer to SEMA, will see Porsche tuning shop, SpeedART, revealing its take on the Panamera. The PS9 package for the German sports saloon ups the ante with numerous aero add-ons and a bevy of performance upgrades.

The tuner offers a power kit with larger turbo chargers, sport exhaust and cats plus ECU upgrades that's available in four flavors with 550, 600 and 650-horsepower and up to 890 Nm (656.5 lb-ft) of torque.

SpeedART claims that the most powerful version of the car accelerates from zero to 100km/h (62mph) in 3.5 seconds and goes on to achieve a top speed in excess of 320km/h or 200mph.

The modded Panamera will ride on unique 22-inch alloy wheels while the 650HP version will also feature a new brake system with larger discs and calipers.

As far as appearance is concerned, SpeedART's bodykit consists of a front apron, engine hood air outlets, a newly designed bumper at the back with air outlets on both sides, a rear diffuser, side skirts and spoilers on the roof and the boot.

Inside, the cockpit will get a SpeedART steering wheel with F1-shift paddles, real carbon-fiber trim and accents, new leather upholstery with colored stitches and a revised instrument panel.
