Maserati Quattroporte Tuned | By CDC Performance

Posted: 12 Jun 2012 06:00 AM PDT

Maserati Quattroporte Tuned | By CDC PerformanceIt is interesting to see that German tuning house CDC International chose the Maserati, over German luxury brands, to launch their subsidiary line, CDC Performance. Whatever the reason may be, the result is a stunning upgrade for the Quattroporte four-door sports car. The complete package improves all facets of the sports sedan, by modifying the exterior, interior, and under the hood. A full body kit is fitted on the front, side, and rear, showing off carbon fiber highlights. Reworked engine means that this V8 will produce 572 horsepower (580PS) and 570Nm (420 lb-ft) of torque. The power equates to running 100km/h (62mph) in mere 4.6 seconds, and it can max out near speeds of 300km/h (186mph). Watch the promotional video to see the work of art in motion and hear the engine roar. via: Carscoop
