    Are you sure that's not just Photoshoped? Given the clearances, I don't see any way shape or form of that functioning in the real world or track. Makes a cool photo however!

    Waterboarding is too easy a punishment for doing this to a perfectly good sports car.

    I'm thinking drawn and quartered is closer to where I'd go with this.

    Fugly doesn't even get you into the neighborhood.

    The car is CG, the artist is well known for making fantasy design cars, and has a website with great pics specially for screen backgrounds.

    This is a specific style that is popular right now amongst the youth. It has its roots in Japanese bosozoku and drift cultures. The artist does this with several iconic classic cars. I think it's cool as an idea. He knows it gets all the purists bent out of shape. It would never be done in real life. But if it gets a kid to look at a 308 and think it's cool then I'm all for it.

    Agree. Got a link to the artist's website?

    Like to see his take on a few of the others...I don't care for the looks of this 308 but I 'get' it.

    If you're going to publish car designs, at least get the basics right! - Such as drawing directional tyres fitted the right way round!

    I used to do quite a bit of 3D professionally; it's likely no one told the artist which direction the tread goes - and if they didn't, unless the artist was a car guy - they'd have no was of knowing.

    Photoshop has a lot to answer for...
    Can we please stop referring to these things as 'design' - rather, they are doodles which really take very little skill. At least a hand drawn sketch has some artistic value.
