nice car

Very good execution here. Nice paint, good interior... but it needs one thing...Porsche wheels (80's turbo Fuchs to be exact). Keep up the good work!

You should have made it like this one I saw at a car show, I swear on my life that it is not photoshopped in any way shape or form.

Excellent work Ales.
And great photographs too. Hard to believe is not a real car.
Like especially the first one, with the sun shining in those chromatic parts.
