Ignoring the various bugs, this car is a great start to UE4 for you. However, I reckon it can be improved even further - quite a fair bit, in fact.
First of all, it is quite heavy for what is claimed to be a small, lightweight sports car, at nearly 1.6 metric tons. I would suggest using a glued aluminum monocoque chassis (if you are OK with the fact that it only allows for limited production) and switching the engine block and head materials to aluminum/silicon alloys (for better weight distribution) to keep the weight down. Also, unless you want to save even more weight, a 60-degree bank angle for a V8 seems odd in my opinion - a 90-degree bank angle, with either a cross-plane or flat-plane crank, would make more sense here - if such an engine still fits. Moreover, even an advanced automatic gearbox would not be the best fit for a car like this; a manual transmission would suit the car better and save even more weight. Finally, the engine’s performance is limited by the fact that the power peak is exactly at redline - extending the rev limiter a few hundred RPM past the peak is generally acceptable if the engine internals can withstand the extra revs.
Nevertheless, this is the best-looking car you have designed so far in any version of Automation, at least in my opinion, and one that clearly shows potential for further development - in the future, there could be a more affordable variant of this car, with a smaller engine. I’m looking forward to more designs from you in the UE4 build - they should all belong in this thread, while cars made in the current Kee engine version (if you are still using it) should be shown in a completely separate thread. And while you’re at it, you should make one thread for each of your companies.
60 degree V8 is not only lighter than a 90 degree one, but also slightly more effective IIRC.
@mert5100 Could you please stop making new threads for nearly every new car? Commonly accepted standard is making one thread for one whole company/brand. It not only keeps the forum tidier, but makes it a lot easier to create some brand image when most cars are in one place.
That looks pretty well though
