Most likely photoshop as that rear door intake is kind of weird.
I have an idea. Yesterday whlie researching for my QFC, I came across a SWEET concept mustang. It was called the Mach 2C. This is a good article on it https://performance.ford.com/enthusiasts/newsroom/2021/04/mach-2-concept.html
Anyway it would be cool to see “what if” Ford made this car and modernized it through the eras.
This is the concept
It’s got a sick little vent up front, where the air rushes up through the bumper over the hood, like modern 2023+ concepts do (like the new Challenger.)
And the back
I gotta say, there’s got to be a universal timeline where this thing became a reality. I’d like to bend that timeline my way (unless it ended in nuclear war or something.)
ps. I’ve been working on an Automation model of this monster.
This what I got, it’s kinda generic from the 70s onwards.Part of it is that there aren’t many pictures of the car and another is that it kind looks like a generic 80s 90s car from the front, reminds me of the Honda NSX. Image 2 image didn’t work too well on it so I had it generate the car, at least a close facsimile and change the years on the prompt. You be the judge.
Some more random mashup attempts
Peugeot 307, Hyundai Atos, Jaguar 420G, Citroën XM and Renault 4.
Saab 9-5, Peugeot 206, Wolseley 1500, Iso Grifo and Alfa Romeo 159.
Volvo V70, Ford Sierra, Toyota Yaris, Volkswagen Karmann Ghia and 1935 Ford Tudor
Same as previous time because I like this too, haha.
Dodge Shadow, Citroën DS, Dacia Logan, Range Rover Sport and Rover 620.
Chevrolet Styleline, Opel Kapitän, 1920 Chevrolet Touring, Citroën DS and Mercedes-Benz CLK
As a former Flex owner (2 of 'em) I like this direction.
Subaru WRX decade by decade. I tried hard to get them to vaguely look like a Subaru and if you squint you can see some common design language, but yeah… its hard…
Oh, and starts in 1922 since the WRX was released in 1992

The triple lights are what puts me off, the lining above them kind of reminds me of some Jaguars.
Agree, they look terrible, lol.
What if Citroën had made a BX based crossover?

Shovel?
So, I saw an Audi TT what if…? being made in Photoshop a while back (sadly can’t find it). I was interested if I can get close to that with AI.
There was a really cool looking concept based in the 80s which I was trying to get, more or less successfuly:

E: Found the original, and turns out it was AI generated as well.

Finally I got a rather interesting result from an Automation vehicle, the Sanju MDM44 Wolverine.
I am not 100% sure what I think, the background is extremely cool, so is the vehicle but it is still really not the original truck anymore so…
…I did a compromise too.
What could I do from an evolution standpoint, using the 1958 IP Lily as a base image?
