Beta 2001 Volkswagen W12 Concept 1.3

Ongoing project to recreate a Volkswagen W12 concept car.

The model available for download is a "spyder"/convertable version. Im still messing with seams and lines with the all glass roof/back. Once I feel the roof looks good and I figure out how to add trim styles to mod zips, that will be added.

There is some dogtape to hidethe bonnet seam and rear door seams. Car looks best in Yellow.

Obviously there is no W12 engine in Automation
Runs a 5L V12 twin turbo(real car ran a 6L W12) ~8K rpm
Top speed is just over 200MPH
6 speed manual
AWD (might change to rear wheel)

This is an ongoing project, mainly to hone in on my automation abilities. Im going off of multiple makes of the W12 that are available online. I am taking liberties with the interior for now.

Currently the brakes need tweaking as does the weight displacement. Springs are a little soft on launch but even out. Warming up the tires and not forcing the brakes makes the car perform well!

Interior is there but also needs work. Dont know how to make the steering wheel and gauge needles work and theres some floorboard work to be done as well as engine panel behind seats.


If anyone can provide a simple and easy guide for the steering wheel/needles and adding trims to mod zips, let me know!

Also please give any feedback. Car is far from perfect, I am aware.
