The Leingarten-based tuning company JE Design has revealed its range of accessories for Porsche's Panamera.

Visually JE Design offers an aero package consisting of a front apron (at € 3,332) which features a 911 GT3-style vent and humongous intakes with LED daytime running lights, € 1,547 side skirts, a large rear wing for € 1,547 and a lower skirt (€ 3,332) with integrated diffuser section. A € 1,428 air suspension module allows the Panamera to drop by around 30 mm while the 9 and 10.5 x 22-inch Pandora alloys will set you back € 6,545 in a wheel and tyre package.

Apart from a stainless steel exhaust system JE Design can provide power upgrades for the 3.0-litre, six cylinder diesel model, raising output from 184 kW (250 bhp) and 550 Nm of torque to 221 kW (300 bhp) and 650 Nm. This results in a lower 0-100 km/h (62 mph) time of 6.5 seconds (down from 6.8 s) and a raised top speed of 250 km/h 155 mph, up from 242 km/h (150 mph). When fitted with JE Design's software the Panamera Turbo jumps from 368 kW (500 bhp) and 700 Nm to 441 kW (600 bhp) and 850 Nm. That sees a 0-100 km/h time of 3.8 seconds (down from 4.2 s while top speed remains unchanged at 303 km/h (188 mph). These modifications are priced at € 1,500 and € 2,000 respectively.

Looks lovely. Love my PanAm Diesel and don't miss my 997.
 
Hideous.

Best left alone - most Porsche models look better without the aftermarket add-ons, Panamera is no exception - standard Turbo S looks way better than the aftermarket dog's dinner we have here 8)

PanAm is growing on me and starting to see many on the roads now.

We're doing quite a few wheels too, but boy are some of the brakes humongous!

Nicest PanAm seen was on M25 Friday. This big black thing coming up behind me with really cool square formation DRL's within the main cluster, looks so much better than a strip of white, looked v futuristic. It was the Turbo S.
 
I thought the Carrara White Panamera GTS at Hatfield looked nice, yesterday.

Should I be worried?
 
That is quite one of the worst designs have ever seen. I think the front is worse than the back, but we are splitting hairs here on degrees of awful. Leaving aside the chin arrangements, why would you stick a grotty wing on the back of a car that has a rather clever fold-away item built in???

Lastly, I'd be amazed if they find a buyer for even one kit, however, does anyone know roughly how many of those would they have to sell, to break even?
