Stretched cars for China are nothing special anymore, but the Porsche Panamera Executive is the very first stretched performance car. The China-only Audi A6L, BMW 5Li, and Mercedes-Benz E Class L are not available in RS/M/AMG guise, leaving the Porsche as the only choice for buyers who need a superfast & very sporty stretched four-door vehicle, and in China those buyers exist.
