Okay, I saw this and had to build it. It has such a futuristic look to it. I really was wanting to test my skill at the compound curves. I'd give myself a 'C' on it, but it is unique. Photos with Nate's ShockTroopers and some of TommyGun17's buildings. Didn't rescale it, but it doesn't look bad. You can find it at web.archive.org/web/20061105201535/http://www.nissan.co.jp/EVENT/PAPERCRAFT/. Nissan changed their site. Up until a few years back, they had all their cars archived on the site, using the drop-down list above the pictures

Pivo 2 I haven't decided whether the car is even worth cleaning up. If I do, I'd put a little cereal box card behind each wheel to flatten them out. It needs the fenders shaped better, and all the join lines needs touching up with white paint. But even then it won't be that great of a model. I might just move on to ... The How to Train Your Dragon models

Went ahead and 'backed' the tires on this and touched up the join lines. Probably not worth it, but as it is done already, I thought I'd share.

It has a futuristic and a clean look. I just remember movie named "demolition man" When a car had an accident some foam was protecting the driver and the passengers.

I would really like to see a model of that car. I've mentioned it to a few designers, and they have no desire to do it, nor do they wish to do the 442. I figured I'd be able to lure them into one or the other

Strange but cool looking car. The passenger compartment almost looks like it could detach and roll away or be placed into another larger vehicle.

The passenger compartments swivel. I'm not sure what that accomplishes.
