I had the side stuff there and people hated it so I took it out. I like what you did with the front headlights though... except the outside headlight would still have to be a turn-signal/running light.

Good input as always!

Here's the latest with the headlight/foglight changes and I added a front aero piece. Made the lower cutout a little wider where the foglights are. Did more work on the back including reshaping the rear spoiler a bit.

Going back to try different things , can you show us what this model would look if you pull the B pillar to be flash with the rear fender
Just to have that clean look at the intersection between the door( lock side ) / rear fender / B pillar
While keeping the front portion of the door exactly the way it is
This way you may gain some extra interior usable space

So if I understand you correctly, you want to see the fender go straight up to the roofline; like a Lamborghini...right? I can give that a try; might look too much like a Lambo though and not enough like what people would accept as a Camaro. We'll see.

Here's a couple of snapshots with a door handle on the side; just that little detail make a surprising difference in the way the side looks.

This is exactly the kind of post I've requested people not make. That pic has been posted before so sorry, I vote NO on your NO. READ THE THREAD BEFORE POSTING!!!

Tried the Lambo look; way too much hassle. Requires a complete remodel of the entire back half of the car. Actually I feel the look from the front wheels back is pretty good; has the right feel to it. It's the front that's been bugging me. It was a good one, just not right for this particular car.

So I've completely reworked the front from the front wheels forward. It's still not quite right... not sure yet exactly what's bugging me but it feels like it's almost there. This feels much more like the right front for this car.

IDK I'm not feeling that front end. It almost strikes me a little bulbous. It might just be the angle though.

The wrap around on the lights are reminiscent of an old Maserati from the 70's or early 80's maybe a Ferrari. Not sure it's old Italian though. I'm not saying that as a bad thing BTW...

Ok fixed.

Perhaps more of a Boxy front end like a ZL1? It goes inboard in front of the tires which is something that just popped out at me.

I like the headlights ideas on the most recent one, but I think the whole console needs to be raised a few inches.... are you doing this work in a CAD program? Looks awesome!

I see Sabb Sonnett in that.

Ok been putting a LOT of work into various things; especially the front. I moved the cabin outward a couple of inches to give more interior room. Moved out the top fender lines slightly. Shortened the entire front. Lots of little things too numerous to mention.

I have 2 fronts I've been working with. The first is the one you've seen evolving so far. The second is something new and a bit more radical. It's going to take more work to get the second one to look "right" but I think it has potential.

The first front:



Different colors do have an effect on the look and feel:



And here's front 2:
