The UGS NX3 CAD program that I use as an aerospace engineering student has that option which makes things look significantly different depending on which perspective option is chosen.
That’s true. I didn’t think of that. I used to be a mechanical engineering major at Texas Tech and the CAD program I was using there had multiple views to look at your design.

Re: Chassis Talk

That could also be the SEDAN version. Coupe version might be slightly shortened to GTO lengths...

The GTO's is actually 109.8.
Longer wheel base would be good, less overhang .
