Hello my names Arash and Im an amateur car designer.
I feel I made a wonderful mix of designs (Huayra & Birdcage) today and thought I'd share it with you guys to get some feed back.

Seeing how the Avengers NSX was based on a shortened original, the second car in this video is a re-bodied convertible NSX with a new roof.

Lots of people get hung up on how crappy my modelling is... I think its the design that counts, but not everyone has the insight to see through that. I am learning software to fix this.

some of my previous work in the following thread linked in other pages.

Interesting design, Arash. Looks like a mix of parts from different supercars. I can appreciate the proprtions. Good luck with your future designs.
 
now I wouldnt mind driving that as the new NSX thats a bad ass design.

you should submit it to Honda of America Corp
 
---------Update----------
Thanks for the nice words... I plan to make a 1/5 toy car like the following which in reality could be made into a NSX kit.

I dont know if adding a LeMan style windshield top would take away from the cars stiffness... but it looks dam good to me :D

Very attractive design in the original post vid. But remember, one of the things that sets the NSX apart from other exotics is its ease of use. This includes relatively easy entry/exit and good visibility. The high sills in your design would certainly make getting in and out a challenge for all but younger and more limber drivers. The rear visibility is compromised by the oversize C pillars.

The bottom design "C" in the above post looks like the illegitimate child of a Porsche 906 and a Lamborghini Gallardo. NOT a bad thing.
 
The picture in C reminds me of the old jaguar xj220
 
The Isdera is my main inspiration

Nice, I didnt know that Porsche design existed. I still like the design in the first post, but it seems dated now :tongue:
Im going to be trying a more conventional top, perhaps the Huayra one, and see if it can still look as good. Some early modeling.

I really have no hope in multinational companies bringing exciting concepts to life... but yes feel free to message them any pictures.

I changed the design for these more dynamic surfaces...

I wont be bumping this thread in the future until I have a complete toy car perhaps. I'll be posting updates in a Volkswagon forum, in a thread called... "So you want to make a kit car?"
