it is also on the roof as well - flat look - it would be interesting too see in the flesh.

i love the blacked wheels on these cars

i see he blacked out the back porsche, stripe and model. i was trying to picture what the back would look like with the back strip blacked out - would love a better picture of just the back end

It's got potential but Lord with those tires and lowered like that it must ride harshly.

Never have been a fan of multi piece wheels with exposed hardware. Just as easy to put the fasteners on the inside... ala Fikse.


And if that exposed silver hardware on those rims is not real? It just SCREAMS poser.

I saw this car parked outside Katsuya in Brentwood, CA last night......I agree that it must ride horribly on those low profile tires.

I thought those discs looked a bit tiny to have yellow calipers...

I dig the matte black though.

Hey Fat cab, don't let all those negative comments put you off, clearly it's an acquired taste.
That said, I agree with you that is one mean machine!

When the look of a car is this customized of course the handling/comfort/performance goes out the window but that's not what this is about... this is about making an "senior" car look like Armageddon coming down the street!

Of course there's going to be some things that could be better or are not quite right (I agree those disks are just too damn small) but for anyone to arbitrarily label him as a poser is like saying Clint Eastwood is a phony because he never actually killed someone.

I admire the owner for taking a risk and putting his money where his mouth is, power to him.

Awesome pic's

Thanks for sharing!

Sid.

Funny, I've seen one and only one Panamera to date, and it was this car, while I was visiting LA (on Melrose near La Cienega) for just a few hours last weekend. Looks better in person.

He probably thinks they're fakes because they look too small...however it's not that the disks are small, it's that they are under 20" or 22" wheels!!
