when i started writing, i thought a lot about car anatomy. so here's my theory: of course, the tyres would be the "leg" equivalent. (the "brown" belly area looks somewhat greyish - it's the area on the undercarriage, between both axles) ("flanks" would be human "hips") (as for the "taboo" zone... *grin* ;D) (any olfactory organs - and i bet cars can "smell" - would be underneath the hood) btw, i didn't find a 911 carrera 996 model blueprint on the internet, so the gt2 has to be sufficient...

Interesting. Makes you wonder how their jaws work and all that, and if they'd have an actual "skeleton"

exoskeleton. the bodyshell.
i always wondered what is inside the passenger compartment (because of the eyes in the windscreen and the obviously empty space behind)... if those cars in CAR world still do have one - they don't need to transport passengers (and evolution normally disposes of "unnecessary" parts/functions). but on the other hand...

I'd imagine that the brain and supporting organs take up that inside cavity. The "doors" could actually hold side compartments for personal belongings. Exceptions would be sedans, station wagons and vans which would have a back space.

Nice diagram...most of what's on it seems like it would be obvious, but it's still very good to see it layed out like that.
I've always wondered what part of the car would be considered the "back"...when people refer to that, I have no idea whether they're referring to the rear end or the roof.

I love your diagram. Drewsterhotrod has a diagram of a Car's internal organs in her dA gallery and I know Tai's drawn a Car skeleton.
I agree with all your designations for the car/human equivalents and I also think the axles function as arms and legs, with the tires being the hands and feet. I've always thought the back windshield and either the trunk lid or the bed, if a pickup, would be the vehicle's back. It wouldn't be a taboo area, especially for pickups that would probably need help from other vehicles to load things into their bed.

We don't have a "thread misuse squad". We just beat them with big sticks. ^^
Kidding!

We don't do beatdowns for pissant reasons here. Sometimes topic drift just happens. REAL things - threats, fraud, extortion, harassment - are what get dealt with.
