Porsche Panamera Tuned by 9ff and Russian firms Top Car and Cardi

(Update 1) Our Russian friends over at Cardesign have sent us a new set of sketches depicting one of the first tuning proposals for the just revealed Porsche Panamera sports sedan. Although it was initially believed that 9ff was the only one company working on the Panamera, turns out that the German tuner has also joined forces with two Russian companies, called "Top-Car" and "Cardi". The role of each firm in the tuning project is defined as follows: Top Car will handle the management and marketing, Cardi the design and 9ff, the performance upgrades and production of the bodykits..

This isn't the first time that the three tuning firms have collaborated on a Porsche project as last year, Top Car introduced the Cayenne-based Vantage GTR.

According to the folks at Cardesign, Cardi has designed two distinctive bodykits for the Panamera. The complete kit replaces every external body panel aside from the rooftop while the second package adds new front and rear bumpers, side skirts and a restyled bonnet. In both cases, the visual upgrades are rounded off with a set of newly designed alloy wheels. 9ff has not disclosed any details about the mechanical upgrades it is preparing for the Panamera

It remains unclear whether or not the Panamera project will be offered exclusively by Top-Car and/or by 9ff.
