If you look at this picture, the side scoop "character" line extends, unbroken to the middle of the rear wheel arch and possibly all the way back to the rear fascia. It extends the length of the door and into the front fender. NO renders that I've seen show this this line extending this far unbroken.
This photo also shows a pronounced "boat tail" look on the rear hatch (like a C7 has without Z51/Z06/GS spoilers).
Again, I think there is a LOT of stuff that we're not now seeing. The car may be butt ugly when revealed, I prefer to be half full.....
They did. The side scoops were heavily altered with obvious faux panels yet they've seemed to fool everyone doing the renders.
I agree with this. I stated the sides were fake from the first Ring photos and it wasn't taken too kindly. Now there is sufficient evidence that they are.
I am trying to figure out the images shown. I do not see what Dan has photoshopped in the first image?
In the rear shot, is the thinking that the scoop dips below the door ridge at the rear as shown? Not sure how this would look. I know Zaro and Pimp say it looks awesome...Trying to figure it out. If not, then it terminates at the ridge like my last rendering?

I saw this image back in May when the mules first hit the streets. I used the brightness/contrast tools to reveal the shape of the scoop under the fabric camo.
It was visible in the original photo, but the darkness of the fabric area concealed it. I only noticed it because the brightness on my monitor was turned up at the time and I saw the body line.

I've done nothing else to the photo.
Thanks Dan,
In that case, I see what you mean. Others have seen the same line. It is difficult to tell "exactly" the shape. In the photos it looks curved like a C2 side shape,,, but Zaro said it was more angular and others have said it was the V shape from the C8R. !!! : 0
From the rear image, the shape looks to bulge below the door ridge at the rear.? If not then it is closer to the rendering below as Zaro said.
Obviously this is an important area of the car and "should" have been scrutinized and perfected. The witnesses all say it is amazing so I am excited to be surprised. !
I believe it will look much better than the rendering but "think" the rendering gives a fairly good idea of the basic form and some features and stance.

Here's my original interpretation of the shape of the inlet. The outline upper part is pretty clear to me, but the lower part is obscured by the taut fabric. Your rendering above may be correct.
Here's an earlier rendering you did based upon the shape above.
I believe the horizontal ridge that runs along the middle of the door continues as the top line of the inlet, similar to Dan’s drawing. I think the triangular piece that appears to be another layer higher on the door gets smaller and is only a fender top detail.
