After numerous e-mails insisting that I submit a model to Cuusoo, I finally decided to submit something that I felt is probably my best design and could have a Legitimate shot at reaching the intended goal... The model contains just over 1,900 parts and would probably fall into the $150 USD range as it has no power functions elements as I instead chose to incorporate manual features... This model has several parts that have been discontinued like the Black 19 length Flexible Axles and Black Bushings...

Car

The model features a newly styled 5 Speed + Reverse All Wheel Drive Transmission that follows the same shifting pattern as the Ford Mustang and also has a switch built into the Dash that transfers power from the Rear Wheels to all 4 Wheels... It also has a Rear Mounted V10 Engine...

Gear ratios are as Follows:

1st Gear 2.08 : 1 2nd Gear 1.60 : 1 3rd Gear 1.25 : 1 4th Gear 1 : 1 5th Gear .75 : 1 Reverse 2.25 : 1

Car2

Each Gullwing Door opens and closes by Turning a small bevel gear in the rear of the car... the Rear Hatch and Hood also Open and Close...

Car3

The Model Features fully functional Dashborad and "Hand of God" Steering along with 4 wheel independent Suspension...

Congratulations on achieving over 500 supporters! This is an exquisitely designed and executed original supercar that on its own merits deserves a place next to the LEGO Technic supercars we have produced to date. Your extra touches like the red chrome wheels, all-wheel drive, and gull wing doors make the model. Best of luck on your journey to 10,000 supporters!
