meh.

reminds me of the star site and the gorilla vines site of parallax fame.

for a decent web designer or front end developer, this is childs play.

I really like that expanded picture. This is the best view yet of something I've been curious about.

It looks like there is a 1.5" tall piece of framing that runs over the main car frame, and it's only purpose is for mounting the fenders. I think it's only a matter of time before we see some replacement front clips that do away with that bit of framing, and drop the hood and fender line dramatically.

I think that would give the car a more agressive feel, and get it closer to the original concept. which was the best in my opinion.
