    Muscle Car of the Future - Raptor —Steve Runnels
   Here's the first of hopefully many cars in the same style of the Future Bike/Turbo Cycles. That is, oversized, and outragous. Powered by dual turbine engines the Raptor has plenty of power to hang with even the fastest of turbo cycles. Note the high (...)

     (...) Wow! Nice work! You did a great job updating muscle cars..this looks like what would happen if a Lamborghini got a steroid injection:) The work you did with all the curved parts really make the mean sleek look, and the chrome...nice!

        Re: Muscle Car of the Future - Raptor —Aaron Sneary
     (...) My initial, and secondary reaction to this amazing MOC are not appropriate for public forums. But let me say that it ended with several exclamation points. This is the baddest, sweetest ride I've ever seen in steel, plastic, or on paper. Ford, (...) (21 years ago, 6-Jan-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
    
         Re: Muscle Car of the Future - Raptor —Steve Runnels
     (...) Being a Z-car owner and enthusiest, I think it subconsciously came out looking a lot like the new 350Z. I went with muscle car though, because of it's size and 2+2 seating. :) (21 years ago, 6-Jan-04, to lugnet.space)
    
         Re: Muscle Car of the Future - Raptor —Aaron Sneary
     (...) You should know that I made this my wallpaper, shared with co-workers, dreampt of building something similar, and generally droolled over it all day long. I've never been more drawn to ANY car-shaped thing ever. I'm not a car guy. Nuff said. (21 years ago, 6-Jan-04, to lugnet.space)

        Re: Muscle Car of the Future - Raptor —Benjamin Ellermann
     Wow! My new favorite car moc. This is what an actual car should look like. I am tired of every car looking the same these days. Great use of the new curved slopes to give the car great angles. I love it :) Ben E. (21 years ago, 6-Jan-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

     That thing is the shiznit! Should be mandatory viewing for: 1) LEGO company set designers; and 2) Automobile stylists everywhere! James Wilson Dallas, TX (21 years ago, 6-Jan-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

         Re: Muscle Car of the Future - Raptor —James Wilson
     (...) Yeah, but to send it in to LEGO, you'd have to prove you built it in an hour out of a random parts assortment. :-) Any chance of you posting building instructions and/or exploded construction photos? James (21 years ago, 6-Jan-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
    
         Re: Muscle Car of the Future - Raptor —Steve Runnels
     (...) Well what good does that do them? I guess cheap and easy is more important that cool and unique. Oh well. :P (...) It's pretty simple actually. The fenders and engines are angled with 1x2 hinge bricks. The canopy with the finger joint that you (...) (21 years ago, 6-Jan-04, to lugnet.space)
   
        Re: Muscle Car of the Future - Raptor —David Rabadan
     (...) Steve, that is fantastic! I cannot believe how cool that MOC is. I have been thinking of Air Cars for my lego universe, your car is great inspiration. I can just imagine something like the Raptor but with antigrav and thrusters instead of (...) (21 years ago, 6-Jan-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

        Re: Muscle Car of the Future - Raptor —Allister McLaren
     (...) Gobsmackingly gorgeous. Best Lego car ever. I mean it. This would be perfect as a technic figure scale sports car too with a few simple changes to the internals. I must ask though, where did those wheels come from? I must have some... Cheers, (...) (21 years ago, 6-Jan-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
    
         Re: Muscle Car of the Future - Raptor —Steve Runnels
     (...) The thought crossed my mind, a single technic fig with a really elaborate console would be cool. But I planned this to fit in the same world as the turbo cycles which seat minifigs. (Plus I don't have any technic figs or have the desire to own (...) (21 years ago, 6-Jan-04, to lugnet.space)
