Description Current work in progress: A concept car I've designed. It features a new style of door, which I've named 'gilotene' doors, since they have the potential to do some pretty decent damage. Anyway, it's still a WIP so I'd be very gratefull for any feedback you can throw at me, and I'll make the needed changes for my final render.

Fire away!

That's one impressive looking car man! The front looks like a Lambo Gallardo and it's got some McLaren F1 feeling in it... Nice door concept too, but I guess it's just to dangerous for any manufacturer to actually build doors like this... Some people *coughParisHilton* are just way too stupid with opening car doors...

Hah, I'd probably be doing the world a favour if she had a wee accident with my door. I agree with the Gallardo feel - I think that comes from the triangular lights. Cheers though

Looks good The front end to me looks a little squashed up. I know realisum proberly isnt what u are looking for, but where would the moter go? theres not much space there

It's a mid mounted engine - similar to any current super cars for example most ferrari's, lambourgini's, etc. The engine is behind the driver, which makes the car weighted more evenly to make handling better.

Ok good point I still say the front end is a little to short but thats up to you.
