Sports/Supercar Design Thread

Aesthetically, it may be a bit too futuristic for 2013, and has too many clashing elements - besides, this is built on a mid-engined body, not a front-engined one, so it should be treated as a true supercar and not a personal luxury coupe.

Thanks for your opinion.

I KNOW its mid engined. Ill incorporate vents on the rear in a revision someday, maybe. This car has been sitting on my computer for months. I liked it so I figured id show it.

Why should i have to treat this body as a true super car? Tell you what, if YOU ever use this body, YOU do that. Thats part of the greatness of this game that i love so much.

I’LL keep my vision on this particular design, on this particular body. I picture this as a mid-engine alternative/competitor to an Aston Martin Vantage or maybe even Lexus LFA.

As far as things clashing, thats what s up, im still learning but thankyou.

The Wolfram Wolfhound Lineage (1974-89)

Just showing off all three iterations of the Wolfhound, although one of them is actually a separate model.

Above, left to right: 1974 WLF-6 concept (red), 1984 Wolfhound GT (white), and 1989 Wolfhound GTS (black, originally silver).

The three iterations of this platform were as follows:

  • WLF-6: Original concept car, powered by an all-aluminum 280-bhp 3.5L DOHC 24V I6 with multi-point EFI. Was voted Car of the Year at the 1974 Letaran Auto Convention. This concept used full aluminum panels and a luxury interior and cassette tape player.
  • Wolfhound 3.6 GT: The first production variant. Engine size is now 3.6L; power up to 300 bhp. Submitted in Round 4 of the Letara History Challenge. To save costs, the interior and stereo were downgraded to premium level, and the bodywork to partial aluminum.
  • Wolfhound 3.6 GTS: Updated version with variable valve timing (all cams) and 17-inch wheels front and rear. Power has increased further, to 320 bhp. I am planning on submitting this for the next round of LHC, unless I can come up with a newer car that surpasses it.

I enjoyed making all three trims, and hope that its replacement proves to be a worthy successor.

1987 KMA KX12 GT Spider

Originally created for TMCC26 and fitted with a luxury interior and stereo (complete with CD player) as well as adaptive dampers. This build has pop-up headlights instead of exposed ones (it’s a late-80s performance car, what else did you expect?).

1992 KMA KF12

Cloned from the original TMCC26 submission, with the engine also cloned and given an AlSi block/heads, developing 20 more horsepower compared to the original. It now has a sports interior with premium CD player, in a full carbon-fiber body/chassis with pushrod-actuated suspension, but no driving aids or adaptive dampers, for a rawer, more visceral driving experience. 440 bhp in a 1,050kg supercar yields a 0-60 time of 3.5 seconds and a top speed of 202 mph - a sizable improvement over the original, but at a huge cost ($70,500 AMU instead of $39,900 AMU).

If TMCC26 had required me to submit a car from 1992, and if money had been no object, this is what my submission would have looked like - its exterior has been revised with exposed headlights (because aerodynamics), a more curvaceous front bumper, and bigger side intakes, among other things.

Those KMAs are probably the best looking cars I have seen from you this far.

1988 Premio Hussar GTS-R

The Premio Hussar GTS-R was a highly-tuned, track-focused version of the 4th generation Premio Hussar. Under the hood, the GTS-R was equipped with a potent 2.4-liter twin-turbocharged inline-6 engine that delivered a staggering 365 horsepower. This high-output engine was built to withstand the rigors of intense racing, with race-spec components like a reinforced engine block, high-strength connecting rods, and a forged crankshaft.

To complement the engine’s power, the Hussar GTS-R was fitted with a host of race modifications that helped to improve its performance on the track. This included a stripped-out interior with lightweight bucket seats and a roll cage, aerodynamic upgrades like a front splitter and rear wing, and high-performance suspension components like coilover shocks and upgraded sway bars.

In addition to these modifications, the Hussar GTS-R also featured advanced racing technology like a launch control system, adjustable boost control, and a high-performance braking system with ventilated disc brakes and racing-spec brake pads.

Overall, the Premio Hussar GTS-R was a no-compromise track machine that pushed the limits of what was possible in a production car. With its potent engine, advanced racing technology, and race-spec modifications, it was a force to be reckoned with on the track and a true testament to the engineering prowess of the Premio brand.
