More special edition Porsches in the pipeline

Following the outstanding response to the limited-edition Porsche Panamera Turbo S Executive Exclusive, our sister publication Autocar UK understands that Porsche is planning to come up with more such high-end special editions. The Panamera Turbo S Executive Exclusive was limited to 100 units for international markets, and it got sold out within 48 hours.

“I wish we’d offered more cars for sale; the response has been incredible,” said Wolfgang Hatz, head of R&D, Porsche. “But we have tested the appetite for such a car, and we have tested some suppliers to ensure they can deliver. We have learned from the project, and I’m sure we will do more in future.” he added, at the Los Angeles auto show this year.

The special edition Panamera Executive Exclusive is long-wheelbase version of the Panamera, and gets options like rear seat entertainment package, special hand-finished two-tone paintjob and choice of premium leather upholstery from the Italian company Poltrona Frau.
