Today’s featured car in the MURDER SHE WROTE series is the TOPCAR Porsche Panamera Stingray .

WIth Gemballa out of the game, it seems like other tuners are popping up willing to take its place. One of which is the Russian tuner TOPCAR with their flat black Panamera Stingray.

TOPCAR premiered their Panamera Stingray last month during the Dream Car 2010 in Moscow and made it’s debut in Top Marques Monaco couple of weeks after.

The car that premiered back then was the basic gloss black but here are the first pictures but in the matte finish.

The Stingray package includes a new front bumper, redesigned cf hood, sideskirts, rear bumper, diffuser and a rear spoiler.

Under that hood, is a tuned engine claimed to produced 542 hp.

TOPCAR also offers a new exhaust system with some tricked tips.

Here’s a shot below showing the factory rear wing in the up position.

The ride height was lowered with a stiffer set of suspension components.

Some parts of the car reminds me of Gemballa’s design like the hood and the exhaust tips. This car also reminds me of Gemballa for its mater finish and the blacked out headlights. Not that Gemballa started the whole matte paint finish but just saying.
