Hamann’s engine gurus have been toiling away under the bonnet of the Paragon, the sickest Porsche Panamera you’ve ever seen. The project was unveiled last year on September 13th at the 2011 IAA in Frankfurt and created quite a stir.
Now, the tuner has announced it has done more of what it does best and has beefed up the engine to produce 603 hp/ 443 kW and 870 Nm of torque, which is 23 hp and 50 Nm of torque more than the previous version. This means that if your Panamera Turbo S had Sport Crono package when it left the factory, you will be able to go from zero to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 3.7 seconds and to 200 km/h (124 mph) in 12.4 seconds.

The most obvious thing about this project is that basically no panel has been left untouched on the Paragon. The arches have bulges, the fenders have flares and the sills are... well, everything is bigger now. The bumpers have been extensively modified to include new daytime running lights at the front and that huge exhaust at the back.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
