Well... not very much done.
I actually just wanted to show of the wheels. I did them myself... well after a tutorial but nonetheless I think they look damn good.
Did some minor body mods:
-different doorhandles
-shaved indicator
-a vent behind the front wheel
-removed that funny bump on the rear of the roof

No, they are Trabant 601. That was a little car from the DDR (you know, the "second" germany), when it still existed (The last one , a Trabant 1.1, was produced 1990, one year after the DDR became a part of Germany). The stock version hat around 26 hp. But the car was always being used for motorsport. Today we here in Germany have an own cup for those cars, the Trabant-Lada-Racing-Cup. There the cars have around 90hp. I really like these little cars especially with the racing engines, since they are allowed on the street,too. :) I'm hoping to get one once I'm allowed to drive.
Here, some pics of the car:

I hope whoever drives that doesnt like radio reception, cuz thats what that little bump on the roof was.
Looks really nice though. Keep them really clean, and easydesign may have some competition!

As for those car...I hope they are extremly extremly light weight, because with 90hp, the guys racing mine as well take thier helmets off...

Yes they are. The racing versions usually weigh around 540 to 550 kg. Depending on the transmission setting they reach speeds between 155km/h and 180km/h. If you take into account that the stock one can only reach 100km/h these are very ok speeds, I think.
By the way, the car is even used for rallying :D
