Well what can I say more than W O W ! I really love it, it looks sooo sexy without a wing and the blue pearl effect is just incredible.

Very well done!

Be fair Rob, this is the car MODEL forum, that's got to be a real car, right?

Amazing work man, the engine detail really had me wondering about whether it was really a model, and I love that C/F decalled body, you brought it off perfectly!
