What you see here is one of the first tuned Porsche Panameras on the drawing boards of famed tuning house, Gemballa. Insiders say its called the Mistrale, as in the French region, and given its looks, is no stranger to the all to common uber-power and aesthetic upgrades Gemballa is well known for crafting.
The design sketches show a lower, more athletic Panamera. It features a full replacement of the front bumper and hood with pieces made from what is speculated to be carbon fiber. Both are vented for extra cooling to the massive carbon ceramic binders and rumored more powerful turbocharged motor.
Its stock controversial rear end wears a custom piece that mimics many of the tuner's other models with its striking carbon fiber diffuser and integrated quad exhaust. The element is also vented for further air circulation. From what we can muster, as a whole, it's a handsome aftermarket kit.
All four corners get 22-in. forged wheels wrapped in performance rubber. It's lowered, but by how much isn't exactly clear.
If any of Gemballa current models like the 750 GTS are any indication, the Mistrale will indeed be fast, exclusive, and of course, very expensive. If you can jack up the stock Panamera's price to over $200,000, imagine what Gemballa's additions will retail for.
Expect more details and real world pictures in the coming weeks, so stay tuned.
