I'll work a bit more on the side profile and see what I can do with the fender lines. Blue Rooster has a good point - One design element that I think we will be stuck with is a sort of a "bob-tailed" look at the rear. This due to the modern trend towards shorter rear overhangs behind the rear wheels. The "droop" in the rear of my sketch may have to be reduced a bit as a concession to the added high speed stability that the high, short rear end produces - reducing the need for a rear spoiler. The other thing that will be hard to alter too much is the thickness of the windshield pillar as the current one is clearly engineered to support the weight of the car in the event that you get the greasy side facing up.
