Ok I'm not sold on the blue bits but my word the engine note on this thing is unreal even at idle. It's like thunder! I quite liked seeing the engine too!

I like most of that mustang tbh. Tone down some of the details and it would be a looker.

Me too.

I'd bin the stripes, stickers, rear window & side louvres and de-tint the headlamps

I posted a similar but worse Z4 bodykit in the other thread this morning, with the impression it was supposed to be a Cobra kit. This has come up on my random Google articles feed, it's also a Z4 and it does look a lot better, and is designed as a mix of Maserati and Ferrari https://www.evo.co.uk/convertibles/206250/the-ares...




For reference, this is what I put in the other thread.

I do like the Z4 conversion to Z8 looks from a while ago on PH, that looked nice to my eyes.

Even the "good" version looks like something Liberace would have. Something very off about making a 2000s sports car look like a slightly lump iteration of a 60s GT.
