Nice to see you weren't afraid to ax the camo box and take a shot at the side scoop!

How do you know what the base price is going to be??

Pretty bland and soft.... not based on the reality of what we've seen to date. I'll take the real one.

It's got to be cheaper, there's no torque shaft...

You've made those same opinions abundantly clear in numerous posts, perhaps you're belaboring the point, a bit...

A vert I could do, orange might take Photoshop, which I don't have. I'll ask my son

Mike,
Nice work. No way the bird beak on the door survives. Rear quarters are too big. But still nice work!

Probably right on the "bird beak", I've been saying GM would never release that pointed door-edge since I first saw it on the mule. You wack the car in the next space with that and you'll punch a hole in the sheet metal.

The quarters are the same length and are actually not as high as the ones on the camo'd mule cars. Contour notwithstanding, what you see in terms of quarter size is what you'll see on the real car.

Thanks for the comments.

Nice work. My gut is the top of the scoop will end at the upper cove crease & not extend onto the door. But who knows?

Yeah, I like that a lot, and drew it before this version, but its awfully Mustangish, so I put the Kibosh on it...

Scoop looks like this... extends into door. Pretty easy to see in the most recent ring pics that came out today.

Nice work but I'm still on the fence. Will wait for reliability and maintenance feedback before getting on board.
