Very nice!

Hey, PhantomDesign. I love the front lights! Very, very realistic and very nice looking. I think they are very fresh-styling. The rims proposed by someone from BMW Z8 are not quite what I was talking about. I really like the place for rear headlights. It looks in place. Add some realism to them. They will look awesome. Make them match the front. That will be really nice. I don't like the Door Frames. The back has very awkward angle which sticks out and feels like it should've been equaled with the body.
I love how it looks in black!
Sorry for a long time, but my computer had to be rebuilt.
I still can't manage to upload pictures. It just doesn't work. I tried to send it to you by e-mail by i got my message back with an answer that " ... the following address had delivery problems ... ".
I'll try to send them again.

With respect,
---Valera---

Could you describe the problem with the back further? Is it a problem you would see looking from a proifile of a side view? Please respond in this...cuzz I'm delaying refining the back end....and workign on the front first instead.

hmm

cool design, looks like you put some hard work into this. i don't know if i would call it a concept car, more like a supercar. there isn't really anything conceptual about it.... actually, i don't really think it could be a super car either because although it is kinda nifty, its extremely impractical in some areas. for example the only company that would be close to being equipped to produce somehting like this would be ferrari, maybe mclaren, would say maybe lotus but they aren't doing to esprit anymore, which reminds me of this car. production costs would be unbelievable. if i would change anything on it(besides making it a more conservative and practical car), i would say the exhausts. i am suprised nobody has pointed this out yet (if i missed it, my bad) but what would have to power that thing... a chunky v8? maybe supercharged, twin turbo'd? that would produce some heat. and exhausts that go through the bumper have never really been a good idea.

plastic no likey the 200 degree temps.

taking another look -- i can see the drag coeeffecient WAY WAY WAY up there. everything would have to be realistic for a company to purchase the design... and i just don't see it at that point yet.

I've started to build my web-site. Take a look around...It's very incomplete, but I jsut started building it 1:00 a.m. and it's 4:30 am right now.

Add it to your favorites if you want. That'll be be my web-site for a few months.

My sit eis more complete....

Anyways I've started a chasis design. Suggest any parts, layourts, materials, etc if you have any ideas. Remember this is a $500,000 U.S. to $1,000,000 U.S. car. So price really doesnt matter. Performance , use, and styling do.
