The trunk has a soft curve instead of a distinct bulge on some 54 models I found online. That top is unique, but I don't know which series. The trim seems to curve downward, but I can't understand that blotch of red below the trim on the door. Since this is a two-tone car, there should only be red above the trim line and black below. Either the red line is part of something other than the car, or this is an aftermarket job.

Commander 57 ◊ 2010-09-09 20:11	Could be a Super Panama or a Custom Constellation. To indistinct to differentiate. Agree the paint pattern is non-stock.
