The Audi and the Miata actually kind of work. The Porsche hasn’t changed very much, the Mustang looks like some sort of dildo and the rest don’t really work.
I did a MKIV Supra with ‘15 Ford Mustang front end. That counts? :P
Have to say I do like the Ferrari
This is nightmare fuel, but it would probably be better the other way around.
Nr:2 was a Beetle…
1: Awesome
2: Yes
3: Meh
4: Barf
5: …Did I miss something?
6: Beautiful
7: Mmmmm
8: Not bad
9: Wat
10: CT stahp. What are you doing.
Now the other way around, please!
Mercedes 190E 2.5-16 Evo I/W205 C-class FTW!
Monstrosities, all of ‘em. The Diablo was the only thing looking half-decent
None of those work really apart from the MX-5 as they have all grown so much in the time they’ve been around. Also, a Muira should really have been used for the Lamborghini as it was the first mid-engined supercar from the manufacture.
