Re: short wheelbase Iroc

Re: short wheelbase Iroc

Hmm, I think I like it... wait, no I don't. No, I think I do. I can't decide...

Whoever did this seems to have great fabrication skills, it almost looks factory. Or like an optical delusion.

Re: short wheelbase Iroc

I wonder if the front spoiler sees more actions since the rear wheels tilt the front of the car down sooner?

Re: short wheelbase Iroc

On the pic that shows the car the biggest, I zoomed in on the pic and it looks photoshopped. I see a bar of pixels that look slightly different in the middle of the door all the way up through the interior and especially the t-top bar. Same bar of pixels extends to the trees in the background. Then the bottom half of the door seems really blended in near the rear tire. Can hardly make it out though.

The amount of work involved to make this work in this real life makes me extremely skeptical.

Re: short wheelbase Iroc

+1 ^^^^ especially if you took the time and money to do something like that, why would you only ask $3500.

It does resemble a late 80s RX7.
