I can definitely see the shadow of koenigsegg on the front bumper and hood. Might not be 100% alike, but still there's similarity.

I will still hold my words by saying the interior is not well designed. Not matter of taste but it just doesn't look right.

It's sounds funny reading this :) "it looks similar" :roll:

Maybe they look similar but i didn't use any other pics as i wrote. If you don't believe it, you don't have to. Everybody who knows my works (even from digimods time) knows that i don't do such things without mention them. There are so many car pics on the net so can say that for every chop existing. Don't missunderstand me mate, but you are thinking wrong. ;)

Im doing it, its happening, Hall of fame-ing it!

I've lost count how many times I keep clicking back into this thread, I just love the work put into this project and the result of the chop.

Hope this sparks some ideas for other choppers and we'll start seeing more concepts on here.

Nice one Dani, well deserved if you ask me.

Awesome!!! :omg:

Thanks a lot mate. Now i'm more motivated to do something bigger and i think that i'll give it a try.

Thx again

Very impressive stuff here! I'm glad I took a peek to autemo after a long time. Unique works are always more interesting to look at, especially when it's been well thought out and the effort shows.

First of all, I love the design on the front. I can see the similarity to Koenigsegg as well. Similar shapes and proportions happen unitentionally so I don't see any point in shouting about a missed listing of a Koenigsegg in the references. It's definitely not a copy and, to me, the front looks better than the Agera's. I love the headlights, I love the front cover and the little crease details on it.

A small pointer about the front though.

Thinking about how it would be best if it was built in reality. This way you could avoid the super-sharp spike on the bumper where the air vent module is set. Those parts are critical when it comes to smoothness of the surface. Without the spike that corner would be more rigid, thus ensuring a smoothly flowing reflection. Easier to manufacture too.

Great work on the rear view too although I'm not feeling it as much as the front view. It does have a lot of sweet shapes in there (I love the tail lights!). And also, I should mention, the edge of the rear bumper is exactly what I was talking about on the front bumper. So, it seems you know what I mean about that. Maybe you just overlooked that when making the front?

Looking at the rear view for a bit longer it starts to settle in better. Still not as sweet as the front though. At the moment it looks like none of the lines on the side connect to or parallel with anything on the rear. Here's an idea:

(EDIT: Just noticed. The edge of the side vent does somewhat parallel with the edge of the rear diffusor.)

Another pointer to think about when making concept cars as realistically plausible would be to think about how and where the license plate would go, especially on the rear because at least the rear license plate is mandatory everywhere, as far as I know. It's also a nice detail. It's pretty easy to imagine where it would go on this car but the angles of the surfaces don't really support that at the moment. Nitpicking to some extent as well but as you're working on such a high level with these I thought I'd mention that too. ;)

Dashboard looks fantastic as well. Seems it's got all of the instruments in there. Looks easily plausible as is. Maybe a slightly wider black stretch for the edge between the interior and the exterior paint would have been in order (for the window glass and it's rubber sealing. Currently it looks so very thin. Another nit-pick. :P

Congrats on getting it to HOF! Well deserved in my book.
Thx blackdogg and thanks ollite, wow what a comment. It's nice reading such comments after investing that much effort because you took a near look at it and thought about the small things.

Your're right about the rear diffusor and the carbon lip. I was thinking about that but made them because it's "just" a concept and it would be possible that the car would look better if they're less extreme. I also have imagined where the licence plates could be. On the front version between the vents and on the back between diffusor and upper carbon part of the car.

I'm thinking about two options....
1. making a second version to add licence plates, rework the diffusors, the parallel thingy etc. and making a high-end racing version.
Or
2. start a new bigger and better uber-concept project

But i think it will be option 2
Or what do you say guys?

Thanks again ollite for that detailed comment, that was very motivating. ;)

I'd say go for the new concept! I'll be happy to wip-watch for you if you'd like.
