Rinspeed is the new Mansory?

I recently visited the Rinspeed website and aparantly they were bought out, or were partnered up with a company called Mansory.

Anyone know anything else about this? Their rear bumper was put on my "i want" list, and i hope that their line wont be effected.

What a ripoff. All they did was replace the Rinspeed signs with Mansory ones...

Mansory is a WILDASS mod company. Seriously guys. Have you seen their stuff? Either they have insane clients who are insanely wealthy, or they are insanely well funded as a company. I like some of their stuff, I do. Some makes me think pretty hard. I think that Rinspeed, with their crazy *** Lambo door kit and all, might fit them well.

Rinspeed's Porsche Tuning division was purchased and taken over by Mansory November 1. They will continue to offer their aero packages and wheels for the current models including 997, 997 turbo, Cayman Imola, and Cayenne X-treme. In addition to converting the existing Rinspeed aero parts to PU-RIM (previously GFK) they are also working on new products as well including new aero designs and wheels.

The rest of Rinspeed as a company remains as is, only the Porsche tuning division was sold. Wheel Experts will continue to be a dealer of the new products.
