Default Ever want to make up your own car?

I got bored as **** last night so I decided to try and make up a car. The front half of it turned out looking just like a newedge Mustang with a different headlight shape. So I redid that and extended the c pillar into a fast-back shape and added some other non-mustang ****. Tried my best at drawing BBK RK's

I don't know what it looks like, camaro tail lights, maybe corvette headlights, rear 1/4 of a ferarri, front might be something from Mazda. lol

I didn't look at any cars while drawing it, only pics of the wheels for reference. Kind of weird how it came out.

damn, that would look good, short wheelbase makes it look so agressive. from the front of the doors back, it looks like a mix of a new camaro and a Ferrari testarosa.

I used to do this all the time for fun. I didn't save any of from scratch designs but I did find this. I wanted to graft a Roush STG3 bumper onto my 86 fox.

It might just be me but the front kinda reminds me of an NSX.

I don't see too much of a NSX in there. They are lower and more straight lines. The back half definitely resembles a ferrari.

Front looks more rounded than the NSX it's more like the front form a mid 80's Porshe 928 / 944

This however is my dream car. If you're good with a wrench and have some free time you can build it yourself for @ 50-60k possibly less. Depending on whether you use new or used parts and how drastic you decide to go powerwise. http://www.factoryfive.com/gtmhome.html

Some day... My only gripe about that car is it's use of a Chevy LS type engine, but I'm sure there's some way to use a built 5.4 4v in there.

That's kinda what I was thinking.. Ferrari with a bit of Audi R8 thrown in there.

Thats pretty damn good. I could definatly pick a car that resembles each part, but it all together it looks like it's a one off original. I'd buy a car like that if it had a little more hood length, or stretch the front wheel a little forward and put some more length between the front wheel and the door.

I try to draw FR500 rims all the time and fugg it up. Kevin drew BBK RS and owned it.

well since everybody is throwing drawings in and all guess I'll throw in my last one....it was late 2007, haven't done much drawing since. Sorry if you've got to tilt your head a little too...this is just how it was scanned in and I'm too lazy to rotate it. I've since added flames and a number since it's a nascar.

LSx engine > modular 5.4 4v

the LSx motors have such more potential N/A than a 5.4. plus, the LS is soo much lighter than a modular since it is still a pushrod motor. have you ever seen a DOCH modular fully dressed next to an LSx fully dressed? you would **** bricks the size differences.

While a 5.4 4V is badass, a LSx is better. Take a LS7 twin turbo and say bye bye.
