Its almost! No back spoiler. Its in the body. The actual car has a nose in the middle off the hood that aerodinamicly channels air into the opening in the roof. The roof air intake its more at the back, not so pointy. The front is way low in the middle, rising on the wheels shouldrs, just like the 12C for improved vision. But anyway, u'll see how much complex it is live. And the headlights kinda look one with the body.

Thats what the hood will look like, but with an concave surface and the other way around. The open side in in the front,not in the back near the windscreen. kinda like the Venom GT and 12C for improved vision.

^^^The hood was really me guessing. I just assumed it was a lotus style hood but rounded somehow making those swirls in the teaser.

So you have seen the finished car? If so, my big question for you would be: Does the "car" outline in the teaser video match the real car's lines?

I have not seen the whole car, but some photos of some parts of the car. Some tecnhical photos. The car in the video is the actual car. It is McLaren logo shaped almost everywhere, that shark fin logo takes shape in the lights, front air intakes, side intakes, even on the roof intake. The car sits very low with high shoulders, back and front. It has a front nose kinda like the Huayra with the active aero. One thing i did not get to look at very well was that it looked to me that the car has active side intakes, really smart ones. Did not understood if it was one or two. More details that the car has that are not visible in the vid, but are awesome. Carbon fiber surfaces, transparent cockpit....

I tried to draw the front fascia and some of the side. The rear is obviously inaccurate, but is impossible to guess without any teaser showing the best part of the car. I'm not a talented sketcher and my scanner is not the best, but I think I'm a bit right.
