Mansory, a foreign luxury car customization firm founded in 1989 by Kourosh Mansory, unveiled their upgraded Porsche 911 Turbo S Coupe dubbed the P9LM EVO 900. The decked-out sportscar features various high-end fittings including premium leather and carbon accents, as well as digital and performance upgrades.
Most prominent, the body of the P9LM EVO 900 boasts more aggressive, race-inspired, features than the base Porsche 911 Turbo S. Mansory has employed their team of expert designers and mechanics to completely transform the Porsche into an unrecognizable supercar.
With more bells and whistles than a freight train, the P9LM pushes the limits of customization, modern tech, and performance. As such, Mansory allows for extensive customization on their vehicles, the P9LM included, allowing the customer to create a one-of-a-kind P9LM EVO 900 suited specifically to their tastes.
Sporting custom Mansory badges and carbon-forged body elements, the P9LM is hardly recognized as a Porsche, yet it bears the telltale curves and profile of the legendary German automaker, Porsche. The P9LM EVO 900 is special order only, with a limited production run of only 10 models.
The Porsche 911 Turbo S Is An Impressive Sports Car
The base Porsche 911 Turbo S serves as the canvas for Mansory’s latest Porsche installment, the P9LM EVO 900, and although the experts at the Mansory garage enhanced it from top to bottom, the base 911 Turbo S boasts some quite impressive stats of its own.
The 911 Turbo S, after which the P9LM derives, features 3.0-liter horizontal-six with VTG twin-turbo, making 640-horsepower. Standard eight-speed PDK transmission allows the 911 Turbo S to sprint from 0-60 MPH in 2.5-seconds.
Sure, the performance specs of the base 911 Turbo S are impressive, it is a Porsche after all, but the interior contains elegant features more commonly found in top luxury cars. Premium leather and quilted upholstery paired with a large 10.9-inch touchscreen give the immediate appearance of luxury and high-end style.
Porsche Communication Management (PCM) serves as the infotainment control center, with standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, the 911 Turbo S make good use of the standard Bose 12-speaker surround sound system and 100-watt subwoofer. Understanding the quality of the base Porsche 911 Turbo S is crucial in appreciating the level of craftsmanship displayed by the design team at Mansory.
The 2023 P9LM EVO 900 Features A Redesigned Carbon Body
Starting with the stylish exterior, the 2023 Mansory P9LM EVO 900 sports a completely custom lightweight forged-carbon redesigned body that includes race-inspired bumpers with large air intakes and aggressive diffusers, as well as prominent aerodynamic features on almost every surface to facilitate airflow and optimize performance.
The custom two-toned vertically-changing paint finish is fully customizable by the customer and comes in a variety of stunning colors. Accents of visible carbon on the body including the hood, side mirrors, side vents, diffusers, and rear spoiler, tie together the race-inspired appearance while adding to overall performance with lightweight, functional designs.
The 2023 P0LM features a stylish and functional air scoop on either side, as well as a large air scoop positioned on the rear windshield. For added downforce, Mansory fitted the P9LM with a retractable carbon fiber rear spoiler, which is important because the P9LM EVO 900 has an upgraded engine that puts out an insane amount of horsepower.
To wrangle the many, many horses under the hood of the P9LM, the speedster features custom forged one-piece FV.5C-type 21 or 22-inch wheels with high-performance ZR21 tires up front and ZR22 tires in the rear. To add to the coordinated aesthetic, the brake calipers are painted to color-match the specifics of the customer’s order. With optional ride height adjustment, the P9LM can go from track demon to street cruiser without breaking a sweat.
The Mansory P9LM's Engine Is More Powerful Than The Porsche 911
Under the hood, the 2023 P9LM EVO 900 harbors a 3.8-liter bi-turbo six-cylinder Boxer engine that produces a whopping 900-horsepower and 1,050-Nm (around 774 pound-feet of torque). The P9LM’s 0-60 MPH time of 2.5-seconds is the same as that of the base 911 Turbo S, displaying similar sprint capabilities likely due to the large VTG turbocharger featured in both models.
The impressive powertrain applies its power to the road via an eight-speed dual-clutch gearbox, standard four-wheel drive, and newly developed Mansory suspension components. The custom FV.5C forged wheels pair seamlessly with the P9LM’s drivetrain, offering maximum performance in lateral dynamics and optimal stability at high speeds.
The Mansory P9LM EVO 900 stands apart from the 911 in the top-end speed department. With the aforementioned VTG turbocharger, upgraded downpipes, and high-performance exhaust system, the P9LM climbs slightly higher, topping out at 211 MPH, while the 911 Turbo S boasts a respectable 205 MPH top speed.

The 2023 P9LM Features High-End Leather And Carbon Interior
The Interior of the 2023 P9LM, like the exterior, is fully customizable with top-quality materials and elegant design. The premium leather upholstery, dash, and steering wheel are color-matched to the specification of the customer, while the forged carbon accents throughout the interior layout emphasize the sporty nature and race aesthetic of the enhanced model.
The upholstery features customizable stitching, seatbelts, and carbon accents which feature various embroidered Mansory logos as well as elegant patterns that can are tailored to the specific tastes of the buyer. If it hasn’t already been stated, THIS CAR IS FULLY CUSTOMIZABLE.
Top-to-bottom Bespoke upgrades adorn the cabin which, for the most part, resembles the base Porsche 911 Turbo S in terms of layout and features. For example, the 10.9-inch touchscreen featured in the base Porsche 911 Turbo S remains in the Mansory P9LM EVO 900, along with the PCM infotainment interface and its functions.
The 2023 P9LM features a 360-degree view, which is absolutely necessary, considering the paint is a custom vertically-changing finish and the body is forged carbon, repairs will not be cheap.
An interesting trait featured in the P9LM is the custom carbon fiber accented steering wheel, which displays shift light, digital speed, and engine rev display. The premium “glove-soft” leather throughout the cabin can also be found on the steering wheel’s lateral spokes, and are customizable as well.
The limited run of only ten units means the price is likely to soar beyond that of the base Porsche 911 Turbo S, which starts at $230,400 MSRP, but the official price isn't known. We can only speculate that it varies depending on the upgrade features selected by the buyer.
