Sports/Supercar Design Thread

Even more pics of the gorgeous LVC LS60, this time in a different color combination:

The more I look (or think about) this beauty, the more it reminds me of what a mash-up between a GMA T.33 (overall shape, front and rear lights, and central exhaust pipes) and a Pagani Huayra (upper and lower side intakes) would have looked like in the (mid-late) 1990s, but with an elliptical grille reminiscent of those found on the Jaguar XJ220 and the Ferrari F90, the upshot being that the resulting design is essentially a 90s interpretation of a street-legal 330 P4:

Couldn’t agree more. In fact, I think it’s my best-looking design so far, and among the various color schemes I tried on it, a metallic cobalt blue exterior with gold wheels, combined with a two-tone cream and dark blue leather interior (as shown above) is my favorite.

2007 Primus Ultima II

It looks angry? Well, this might be the case because it is. With almost 1.200 horsepower, this car propells you to 425 kph, if you are brave enough.
The service cost per year equals buying a bearable used car, but: If you consider buying an Ultima, you are definitely not among the poor.
The quad turbo V12 behind you breathes more fire than your wife when she saw you with your secretary, so beware of this vehicle.

Well, since F1 has very strict FIA regulations, the first option is more reasonable, although I like the second one better.

I decided to rework the LS60 for 4.3 - it’s now a 1995 model, and develops a frankly staggering 675 bhp, enough to push it to over 230 mph. I even made a poster for it!

And here’s its engine in its current form:

Imagine seeing one of these on the road back in 1995 - anyone lucky enough to do so would have been left utterly speechless at first sight!

Using an intake snorkel/scoop fixture to simulate a pair of headrests on a Sixties car? I’m not sure if I’ve seen that before - but it lends a sportier look.

some bodies from the stone age and most kee era fixtures that are still in the game in their original shape are rarely used, for obvious reasons. But sometimes I ask myself if I could create something acceptable with those antiques.
