I think it's going to be tough to beat the original.

[quote=Lando_c]So. What do you think?

Past couple days I wanted to draw a sketch of something a crossfire might look like if it was in production with cars out today. This is what I came up with. I like it, I wish I could drive it. lol To be continued when I get around to it. Wish I had money to make something like this


Pretty cool drawing Lando. A little too "Cab Forward" for me, but with a horizontally mounted engine (for all wheel drive) it could probably work.
Don't stop drawing, it looks like you have some real talent.

I use to love drawing cars when I was in high school, always side views though because I never could quite master the 3/4 views. They would come out looking out of proportion.
Actually, I came up with a pretty fair rendition of a 1967 Camaro in the late Fall of 1965 (only mine had a little shorter wheel base). Being a Mopar guy, I put the name Charger on the fender because that's what I was hoping the new Charger would look like. Since I never throw anything away, if I ever come across it some day, I'll post it up on the forum.

I see no reason to update perfection. the SE is the most beautiful car I have seen. Just needs non metallic paint. Gary

Move those vents back to the front or at least add them with functional side pipes coming out of them and down along the underside and flare out those back wheel wells to accommodate a wider tire.

I did a 3/4 view and yeah it didn't come out as great as I hoped for, but practice right?

so i kept the vents in place and added the front vents back in, with pipes coming out and then in and finally the tip shows on the side only.

if you're doing a tips out the side (not my favorite) but you need massive rear diffusers out the rear. Lower the car a bit and tuck the tires if you can.

Lose the rear vents, they look like they're off a porsche. Porsche needs them for rear engine cooling, the crossfire has no use for them

Keep at it,

if you want to include some porsche design, take the rear wing off the Panamera. It looks like our retractable wing, but after it opens it gets wider
