Re: Camoria Automotive Official Thread

I like the 1992 Camoria, has a bit of late 90's Honda Prelude look to it. The rear lights are also a fit for the time.

Agree that the engines are quite expensive - under the Auto magazine price modeling, the 700HP V8 alone would cost over $80k. Based off that, the car would cost about 160k to produce, dunno what you'd sell it for, 200-220k?. Which for a luxury hand crafted car seems appropriate.
But 16k annual service costs...? Thats the price of a brand new Toyota Corolla every year...

But if thats what you're aiming for, then stay that way - its what makes all the manufacturers here unique!

Grille

Signature Camoria!


Through careful design and research, Camoria Automotive has managed to successfully create one of the first brand-recognizable designs on the forum. Through repetitive introduction and reintroduction of a design, Camoria Automotive has created a brand image. Our designs center around the grille. They always have. Some of our first production cars have our grille design. Only a few car companies in real life can say that they have stayed true to their image (Cadillac, Alfa, maybe a few others). What makes the design brilliant is its ability to transcend design ages. Regardless of the design age, the jet-aged 50s-60s, the rounded 00s, or the sleek 10s, the design recalls to our heritage while furthering ourselves into the future of design.

History:
Known records of Camorian design trace the look to the early 1960s. The grille was inspired by the increasingly popular "jet-age" design of the 1960s. It's center division resembles that of a set of plane wings.

Image

Modern Interpretations:
Despite the design itself being over 50 years old, it has managed to stay both relevant and modern in design. Pictured below, the D-Style (full description in further pages) features an interpretation of the design in which the grille extends the length of the car. It also houses the fog lamps. The design also works brilliantly with our design motifs:

Image

Unity
Flow

The roof bump flows down to the centerpiece of the grille design, as pictured below:

Image

How It's Made:
Camoria Automotive considers copying to be the highest form of flattery. We are not ashamed to give out our secrets on the designs. For those who do not know how to make this grille design, the steps are listed below:

Re: Camoria Automotive Official Thread

Do you have a race intake on the engine? That may contribute to to the high service costs per year. Even a performance intake results in higher yearly service costs.

Re: Camoria Automotive Official Thread

It does have a race intake. While this does make for a higher service cost, Camoria is pricing and making cars for a special group of people. These are the rare treats of the road, and the cost of maintaining that exclusiveness comes at a price.

Hierarchy of Speed

Thank you all for your attention to this thread. I really appreciate all of your feedback towards the bettering of my company. In honor of the moderately increased hype over Camoria Automotive, it has been decided to feature a new vehicle embodying a new Camoria design language: Sculpted Physics. This language revolves around the combination of elements of scientific aerodynamics and artistic beauty. With this comes the establishment of Camoria's Hierarchy of Speed. This means that special cars will receive the G package, which boosts speed tremendously. The first car up for demonstration is the all-new,

Camoria C-Style

Two models shown:
1. Camoria C-Style Base
Engine: SP-Turbo
216.7CI DOHC EFI Turbo 16V I4
246bhp @ 4800rpm, 349ft-lbs. torque
Engine Price: ~$13,000
Price: Starting-$50,000
2. Camoria C-Style G Luxe
Engine: SP-GT
543.4CI DOHC Turbo 40V V8 Flatplane
709bhp @ 4000rpm, 1019ft-lbs. torque
Engine Price: Consult previous posts/too expensive for me to wish to post
Price: Flat-rate $240,000*
*Luxe package includes all hand-crafted materials, complete entertainment packages, and top-of-the-line everything else.

There is no exception for safety in Camoria Automotive. All cars, whether budget or luxury, receive Advanced safety features at the highest quality.

Discovering Motifs

Camoria is finding its style! In honor of such event, Camoria is releasing its Style Series. In similarity to Mercedes' Classes, BMW's Series, or Jaguar's Types, Camoria introduces its Styles.

The Engines used in 2/3 cars presented today for the base model is the Sculpted Physics Ubiquitous, or SP-Ubi for short. The SP-Ubi and its stats are listed in the picture below.

Image

The Camoria X-Style is special, however. It uses Camoria's Sculpted Physics Super, or SP-Super. This engine means business and takes no prisoners...
Image


Now, for the cars:

The J-Style combines sporty looks with sensible reliability:
Image

The S-Style combines practicality with good gas mileage and style.
Image

The X-Style asks the question: Can a car look as if it is going to kill you? Hopefully, in your opinion, it does look like that. Note the unique tall headlamps in the front, combined with the chrome-tipped headlamps in the rear, a unique style carried over from the head designer who worked at Core Automotive. The car looks likes it's going 150mph standing still, which isn't that impressive of a figure considering this thing can get up to 212mph. Keep in mind that this car still gets 26mpg, the same as smaller, more "eco-friendly" cars such as the Chevy Sonic.
Image

Please comment which you like the most, and any suggestion you have to continue producing Style cars with similar design motifs.

Thanks!

H-Style and Comments

Surely there is no other car out there that embodies the Camoria Automotive essential Design Motifs other than the brand new H-Style. This car takes key points from our essential ideas:

UNITY

FLOW

Here is a picture of the vehicle:

Image

This style is controversial. The elongated grille stretches from the v-shaped lines of the bonnet bump. The top of the rear headlamps match up with the natural curve of the body indentation. Units 1 and 2 flow naturally downward in the same fashion as the grille.

Image

The engine, the Sculpted Physics Lite, or SP-Lite for short, is pictured below.

L-Style

Camoria L-Style:The Car That Will Get There When it Damn Well Pleases

Camoria Automotives has decided to release its first large luxury sedan today. Embodying the design concepts from the H-Style, the L-Style makes sure the world knows that you have arrived.

It doesn't need complicated Mercedes lines and vents and dashes on the body, it doesn't need BMW computer systems that take hours to configure, and it doesn't need Ferrari speed to take you everywhere sideways. What this car gives you is comfort. The L-Style answers the question: What would it be like to drive my living room? Fitted with hand-crafted leather seating, the back is truly the place to be sitting. We at Camoria Automotive have made sure to do that as well. The suspension is tuned to make for the most comfortable ride possible. The engine itself is actually de-tuned in order to make for a long-lasting, comfortable car.

200bhp V8? Yes we can!

Re: Camoria Automotive: The Best Isn't Good Enough

My favourite styling so far is the latest Camoria GTC. The headlights have tonnes of character, and offer a different take on the LED design which is seen so often. What position in the market is the GTC? It seems to have an aggressive name so I'm assuming a sports saloon?

Re: Camoria Automotive: The Best Isn't Good Enough

GTC stands for Grand Tour Car. The car is intended to compete with cars like the Ferrari California, Aston Martin DB9, etc. Thanks for the feedback!

2015 Camoria H-Style

A face-lifted version of our H-Style. This one takes from the GTC in regards to the headlamps, which I hope will be well received.
