Schnell S2
The Schnell S2, Schnell means “quick” in German, and that is exactly what the S2 is designed to do. Go fast. But that’s only part of the equation; the other parts are luxury, ride quality, sound, and superb handling. All of these combine in the S2 to form a truly sensational super car.

The Engine
The engine is a Mercedes derived naturally aspirated sixty degree V-12, with capacity at 6.0 litres, giving the car 640 BHP and 510 Lb-Ft of torque. This combined with the proper gearing gives the car a blistering 0-60 mile per hour time of 3.2 seconds, and onward to a top speed of 220 miles per hour. The car only weights 2,500 pounds, further adding to its speed and handling abilities, and combining with the huge amount of horsepower, for 105 horse power per litre, and 6.75 lbs per horsepower.

The Interior
The interior has all the amenities you might expect from a luxury limousine, much less, a modern super car. But to say it has a luxurious feel is not to say that it has no edge or racing feel. The S2 is designed to be as close to the racetrack as you can get while maintaining legal status. Things like Carbon Fibre doorsills, built in lap timer, supportive, yet supple racing seats, thick rim alcantara wrapped steering wheel, and alcantara headliner, dashboard, and door panels ensure that you feel comfortable, yet racy. But with just the right touch of wood accents, it still looks sophisticated.

The Drive
As soon as you press the door release button, and the carbon fibre door swings skyward, you know you are in for a special experience. Step over the wide carbon doorsills, and settle into the cradling racing seats, strap into the seat belt and look over the hood at the stretch of road begging to be scorched. Insert the smart key, flip up the aircraft-esque ignition cover, depress the Start button, and then it comes. A full on assault of the sound senses, the roar of the quad exhaust pipes fills the cabin as the huge power plant bursts into life. There’s no need to depress the clutch to begin your journey, as there is no clutch, the S2 has a Sequential Manual gearbox, simply press the paddle on the right to select first gear, and your in for a ride you wont soon forget. As you come back down through the gears and go to park this marvelous automobile, there is a special Park Gear lever on the center column. On track, this is a very different beast, gone are its mild road manners, and seemingly instantly appearing are a strange yet delightful set of new manners, S manners. By selecting the “S” button on the three-spoke steering wheel, you enter a whole new world of performance you never thought existed. When you press that button, the suspension dampers automatically go to their tightest setting, the car lowers one inch, the steering ratio shortens fro 15.4:1 to 14.0:1, and the Redline is raised from 7,500 to 7,800.

The Expierience
The car comes with many extras, including three pairs of tailored driving shoes, a tailored driving suit, a three-day course on how to drive the car, a custom, hand made set of fitted luggage, matching the color of the car’s interior, a full rolling tool chest, and a small kit of essential tools for the road ahead. The shoes are fully customised, including the panel colors, to maximise the driving pleasure and ability, the suit, matching the shoes is tailored, for that perfect fit, and of the highest quality protection. A Schnell Jacket, Sweater, T-shirt, Hat, and poster are all included in the press kit that you will receive when you place an order for the Schnell S2. Upon delivery of your Schnell, you will receive a custom Rolex watch designed to compliment your Schnell, with the chassis number and your initials engraved into it.

i also have a chart illustrating the acceleration figures, but i cant seem to be able to copy and paste it :(

[SPHFerrari]

well i just designed a go kart. it has a v12 with 1000 hp and does 0-60 in 1 second and pulls 5 Gs on the skidpad. honestly, anyone can make aup a car and its figures, its another thing to design it and have it do those things

[whiteballz]

ah but did you do a broshure? did you take the time and care to think about it? i belive his numbers are possible.

why diss him like that?

i want pics! :) seriously good job so far.

[my porsche]

thats my ultimate goal, read another thread and you'll see im designing a wind tunnel and making a clay model

[whiteballz]

kudos to you MP.

my plan is to become a designer, so i know the details involved and the thinking process. youve got a good start right there!

thanks mate! ill have pics tommrow, my dad is a computer guru (all hail him, allmighty! :p ) so he'll help me get them on this computer, the scanner is hooked up to the other computer

the numbers will be easily reachable if the designated hp, torque and downforce is acheived, if you get the proper traction! :D

[my porsche]

kudos to you MP.

hey thanks man, pm me and we can talk more specifically about this!

[my porsche]

ok here are the pics

front/back
interior
side
alternate side (has the black part in the cockpit, and loks uglyier than the other one., and its facing the right )

hold on, invalid file type

[IWantAnAudiRS6]

I'm posting these on the behalf of Colin, as his computer won't let him upload them

I love the car, Col, keep it up!

[my porsche]

thanks sam, ok here goes, the full left is the crap interior, the second left is the alternate side view, the right is the good side view ( i think its better, let me know what you guys thingk) and the bottom is the front and back view

[TheStig]

Im not gonna bother saying the 3 cars this looks a lot like, but its pretty awesome. Good work. :)

[my porsche]

no please say, one of the main reasons i put it up along with the brochure is to get constructive critisism, so what does it look like? i think gallardo mixed with 360 on one and enzo on the other

and the brochure what can be added/changed/taken out?

[my porsche]

all you 111 people who have viewed it, post what you think please, i need feedback here! :D this is the testing design stage of my design

[johnnynumfiv]

give it a paint job, aka shade the body so it looks curvy from the side views.

[baddabang]

Nice Interior, outside is col.

[my porsche]

ok shading ill get on that, im not so good at it, but ill try

i think the interior is a little bland what do you think badda?

[Spastik_Roach]

Very nice, I love designing of it. Interior looks fine to me, could you colour it? Would be interesting to see what colour scheme the interior would have.

i could, but its up to the options, plus i can never get it right with shadowing when i color with well, color

[whiteballz]

do you want me to have a whack at shading/colourising it?

[my porsche]

sure, have a go, pm me also whiteballz

[whiteballz]

well, here is the design coloured.

really crappily coloured by me. lol... anyways enjoy

[ZeTurbo]

nice job MP, you really have a nice idea there. try making a 3d view. coventry sucks did a thread some time ago explaining how to do it.

if u have trouble finding it tell me.

[my porsche]

i sent ruim20 a pm about making a wire frame for me and he will, whiteballz you like that one? i like the other side view


which one does everyone like? the curvy one with the brakes showing or the other one?

[whiteballz]

i just used that pic coz it has slightly more detail to work this thats all. i like the other one because you see the cars shape better

[danno]

The second one with the brakes showing is better IMO. just make the wheels a bit smaller though. Generally the wheels on a car like that would be about, or slightly less than half its height.

IMO the interior is slightly bland. I think you need to work out exactly what buttons you will need. for instance traction control settings, CD/radio settings, air con, sat nav, lap timer (seeing as its a race car basically :) ), etc.

work out exactly what equipment levels you have, and then design the buttons, keeping in mind exactly what you want each button to do.

then, design the rest of the dash, using different materials, alluminium, carbon fiber, wood, etc.

(sorry i'll stop telling you exactly what to do now :D )

[whiteballz]

trust me danno, designers can only get better with CC. we (MP & me) both need that sort of stuff.

[danno]

trust me danno, designers can only get better with CC. we (MP & me) both need that sort of stuff.

i know, but i was going past that, and telling him exactly what he should do :D

[my porsche]

danno said 'exactly' 4 times! :D

whats CC whitey? carbon composites? consturctive critisism?

[lithuanianmafia]

consturctive critisism

btw, awesome job MP, my only problem is those wheels, they're fukin massive!!!!! :p just make a lil smaller, and ur in the clear

[my porsche]

i like the 'fukin massive' wheels :D

ive been working on a new interior, much muuuuuuuuuch better, ill post in about half an hour

[my porsche]

ok now in jpeg, thanks matt

revised pictures, now shaded

new interior

[danno]

ok now in jpeg, thanks matt

revised pictures, now shaded

new interior

VERY nice work on the interior. its much more stylish now.

are you using a touch screen for most of your controls? i dont see too many buttons.

[my porsche]

yes, similar to iDrive, but much much, much, muuuuuuuch better

the threaa buttons are: park gear, reverse, start

[my porsche]

i have now glued together the foam to make my mock-up, when it dries i will carve it to the shape, then add clay to form a thin layer that will smooth it, then i will make my wind tunnel and see what it looks like, i will try to get video, but no promises

Sell it and send me any profits through PayPal.

aston martin
ford
bmw
mercedes

ferrari
lamborghini
noble
mclaren (:p they are not with mercedes anymore)
