Looks Pretty Hot- 3D Rendered: Ultimate Le Mans Dodge Challenger 2009

Would be cool if they brought the challenger to the LMS series. some renderings, it reminds me of the a R33-R34 JGTC car.

A Swedish car and boat design company called Vizualtech has left us all stunned at the WCF office with these stunning graphical images of their work. According to them, the company does all their work in 3D, thus giving their clients the opportunity to make absolutely accurate changes or improvements on computer before the physical work even begins. In fact, a number of racing teams with well-funded budgets already use these methods when developing their machines.

Inspired by Toyota's tight grip on the American NASCAR race series, Vizualtech wanted to draft an American muscle car that would challenge the endurance and GT race series of Europe. With all due respect to the dominating Corvette C6.R, their candidate of choice was the new Dodge Challenger. Decked out in FIA GT race specification and numerous liveries, the newly interpreted Dodge Challenger is a mean looking machine. Unfortunately it's only a virtual rendering, but the detailing, lines, livery, and shadows look amazingly real.

It's just a drawing of a car. Something we all did in high school. The only difference they used 3D software on a computer that probably cost in the 10's of thousands of dollars. The article says nothing about one being actually produced.
Initial interest faded into indifference.

Awesome find Alfy, I love this concept, here at the office we do 3D renderings of concept buildings and structures. Some one mentioned you need 10k dollar in software , nope just very good software for the fraction of the price ,this concept I did was done in sketch-up and rendered in kerkythea. Its a solar parking area for Hybrid cars, are client wanted is top come up with a fancy solar charging station. This rendering was done in low quality to give our client an idea, then from his/her input we go on to create our final design and render them in super high quality.
