    In the meantime how about an interpretation of LFs groundbreaking design that has influenced many cars after, the Berlinetta Boxer?

    Ok so I'm slightly embarressed posting this anywhere near one of Michiel's fantastic designs (or Nicke's or Single Serving Jack's for that matter), but I just got photoshop and started by doing a very (and I mean VERY!) basic conversion on a 360 Spider.

    It's inspired in part by thoughts I've had since the intro of the 360 Spider that the roll hoops spoil the lines of a long flat rear deck (as was used on the 348 and F355 Spiders and to a certain extent that most dangerously naughty looking of F-cars, the Slutmobile!!) and also the comments of Evo magazine Sept 2006 edition where they say how much less cluttered looking the Gallardo Spyder is than the 430 Spider due to it's lack of hoops. Also, these pics here: http://www.autogespot.nl/viewimages.php?id=377a11393 made me decide to use 430 wheels - IMHO they suit the cleaner look of the 360 far better than the slightly heavy-handed originals. I'm also intending to include some sort of Gallardo Spyder/BMW 6 Series style glass wind deflector.

    Let me know what you think (both about my design and the concept of flat rear decks on Spiders) - as I get better with Photoshop, I'm hoping to develop this design into something along the lines of a 360 Barchetta! Also thinking of adding Challenge Stradale front bumper, skirts, rear duck tail and filler cap (and possibly the mirrors as well), but am struggling to find a source image taken from the correct angle - my PS skills currently only go about as far as cutting and pasting LOL!! I may eventually try and do something similar with an F430 as well, although that will involve a lot more work as I'm not so keen on the rear styling of the F430 Spider and also feel that the F430's shark-nose intakes are slightly too close together. Also I'm currently only using a mouse, I think I need to buy a tablet!

    Great stuff! There's so much talent here. My modern breadvan can't compare (nor is it actually possible) but this is what I've got at the moment.

    It looks great, and I like how you didn't add any extra side windows. Extend it a little more and you can have an Enzo hearse.
