Just get it going again. If you're going to join this site just to overload it with spam,take it somewhere else,that's reason why Harv let it shut down,too much bullsh*%

Present Contest

Well I have been given another year. Nice of my provider. Now what do I do with it. I dont like this format with all the spam. I think just a gallery is the answer so Ill see if I can start chaning things around.

What are your favorite designs and why? This can be exterior or interiors of cars or even small details.

One of my favorites is our Volvo's floating center console, it's very elegant and timeless (introduced in 2003!). It makes the whole interior much easier on the eye than our Mercedes E-class coupe's interior, which is a mess of buttons and screens.

I'm also amazed by the new Citroën DS5, it looks like a concept car but it's not.

It's not a pretty car but it will make other cars look old. It's even more amazing when you know that this will be much cheaper than any BMW or Mercedes.

I agree with you on the DS5. I just wish it was kept a little cleaner, too much details ruin the overall look.

One of my favorite designs is the Fisker Karma (exterior):

Wide, low, a long wheelbase, small greenhouse and a strong arch above the rear wheel.

BMW GINA

I really like the theory behind it and a lot of BMW design which is the structure under the skin defines the form, and that's all you need. Simplicity.

That Fisker is very nice. I was fascinated by this picture of it a while ago, its curves and proportions look so dramatic next to this Volvo. Also that Volvo is wearing 17 inch wheels, look how much bigger the rims look on that fisker, 22 inch? Huh?
