My car collection (FF Auto).

I've always been a huge fan of fast four door vehicles (everything from Subaru STi's to BMW m5's), so here's my attempt:

Image

A new tail light set up I've been working on:

Image

Image

The engine compartment will house a 3.2L turbocharged motor designed for reliability, efficiency, low weight, and close to 400 hp. (Although it could still use some tuning to smooth out the torque curves)

Image

I think I'll call the car FF-3.

Comments/critiques?

This is a small, cheap and efficient city car (mostly cheap). Again, nothing too fancy:

Image

Image

Image

It will use a simple and cheap 1.8L 16V motor producing 155hp at 6600RPM:

Image

It's called the FF-1.

This new model is inspired partially by the BMW 8 series and partially by the Ferrari 456. I call it the FF-4:

Image

Image

Image

Image

It will use a 6.5L NA V8 producing a conservative 683 HP at 8000 RPM. And as you can see, despite being so powerful and high revving this motor is still quite efficient, responsive, and reliable.

Thanks for the feedback!

As you can see in the image below, the build time for the cheap eco city car (FF-1) is much more reasonable. However, I've spared no expense on the performance models.

I like the city-car. Like you made a Fiat 500 make sweet love to a Chevrolet Spark and their child was this. Has something of an Asian look to it, dunno why.

The FF-4 was a nice touch too, but the yellow color want me to scream, i would suggest a darker, more sobre color to go with the "conservative" engine and so forth.

Like the cars you made man. But a 1.8L engine in a small city car!?! haha maybe a 1.2 would be better with 60-80hp!
I like your sedans, too!

I see your point :D . Let's pretend it's a performance version and call it the "FF-1 GT Superleggera" :lol:

Just like many of you, I absolutely adore the GT-86. I attempted to create a vehicle which could compete with it in the market place of affordable RWD sports cars. Ladies and Gearheads, I give you, the FF-2 (insert dramatic music here):

Image

Image

Image

It will be powered by a simple ~200HP DOHC 2.2L inline 4. Nothing ground breaking, but the motor is relatively cheap and the 200HP at 7000RPM should be enough to put a descent smile on your face.

Hmm... maybe make it a 2.4 and lower the RPM a bit, for the MTBF.
I dont really like the round headlights on this one.. could have done something else
(BTW you've got a PM)

This new model is intended to be a market competitor to luxury sedans, specifically vehicles like the Audi A8, Mercedes S-Class, and BMW 7-series. It's called the FF-7.

Image

Image

Image

Image

This model will eventually come with a large array of engine options, including several high performance motors to compete with cars like the AMG S-class. Initially however, all FF-7s will come with this 4.4L twin turbo V8 designed to provide low-rev torque and "wooshy" acceleration. This engine is also designed to be as quiet as possible and just like every other FF engine, economy is well above 20%.

Wow I like it!
Back end looks a bit like an Alfa Romeo.

683 HP is conservative? Lol
