A Panamera? Wow...
When Porsche unveiled their super controversial Panamera, the initial impressions were mixed. If it’s not the extra set of doors, it’s the oddly shaped hatch that has the enthusiasts up in arms. But regardless of the opposition, we can all agree that it is not a surprise to see Porsche racing and N.Technology leads this thought. They have extensive motorsport background in building and managing racecars from touring, rally and GT cars. They are renewing their long tradition of race engineering production leading to the building of the very first Panamera racecar. Back in February 2010, N.Technology chose the Porsche Panamera S as a result of their research and analysis of the present and future motorsport scenario on a commercial, technical sporting and regulations point of view as posted in their site.
