There's an excellent supercar design in here. Somewhere.

Q: Why is the front end chopped off of the picture?
A: Because it looked like an undead rabid squirrel taking a poo.

Someday I'm just going to do nothing but try to make a decent front for a car design. It seems to be my fatal flaw.

Kinja'd!!!

GT3 wing for downforce, why? Trackday brah!

Yeah, I was intending to put a P1-style adjustable/retractable spoiler in there, but my mind went on autopilot and put in crossbraces. (Like this design would need more downforce... the original front end, though piss-ugly, would have made a Veneno look tame by comparison downforce-wise...)

Thanks for making me rest and take a second look at this, norskracer98! The front end, once I redesigned a couple times with an X-acto knife, actually worked out suprisingly well...

(Fun fact: Because I cut out the bits I didn't like, such as the accidental GT3 rear wing, the rear wing is now fully adjustable on the paper drawing, like in a pop-up book. (tbh happy mistake, I had no idea that was gonna happen!))

It's cool looking, but wouldn't there be some visibility issues? It appears the greenhouse is awfully low.

I designed it as a multi-million-dollar hypercar, where visibility is not an issue.

That being said, the same thought crossed my mind...

Due to NHTSA or what ever it is it'd need to be changed if it was to ever be produced, sadly. Stupid regulations and stuff ruining all the fun.
