[sketch] Lancia Montecarlo

One day I felt like to design a new Lancia Montecarlo, a coupé that would have been made on Ferrari FF's chassis, with the incoming Ferrari twin-turbo engine equipping the California.
I got mostly inspired by the Beta Montecarlo, which was built and sold before the Montecarlo (the base-car of the awesome 037).
I drew only the front. I didn't designed it with a real photograph in front of me, so proportions could be a bit weird. My purpose was to make a proper Italian muscle car, with the elegance of Lancia.

Can we see the whole front and not only one half? It's a bit foolish imagining the proportions and balance with only seeing half of it. Just mirror that and you're all set.

But from the looks of it the car looks alright. Front bumper design is quite conservative and old-fashioned though.
Thanks for the comment Ollite.
I generally hand-draw a half of front/back since if I had to draw the other one, I'd have to reply the lines perfectly.
Instead, with this one, I drew only a half because after a while I was brushing I noticed some lines - which should have been horizontal - were a bit sloping.
I thought it was better for the final result not to go on with the other half because those criminal lines would have been noticed much more.
But as you requested the whole front - I'll do it this evening.

For the bumper - I wanted to keep the lines a bit old fashioned (meaning just old-like shapes, not boring design) since too curvy or modern lines would have been too japanese-coreanish (I also tried some different lines).

Any other comments?
