Inspiration is everywhere. It could come when you are listening a song , it could come as you’re staring at the sky. When it comes to designing a sports car, main focus is to create a vehicle that depicts speed and is aerodynamically sound. As far as those characteristics are concerned, few things can compete with the designs of fighter jets and airplanes. Car designers often cite fighter jets and planes as the models for their vehicles. Here are 10 examples.
Check out 10 Most Impressive Car Designs Inspired By Airplanes…

The Dodge Challenger Vapor takes a different approach and features an all black matte finish designed to create a stealth bomber affect. Everything is black except for the headlights and tail lamps. Even the wheels are completely covered.
03 – Ferrari Fx1 RR
The turbines that power fighter jets are one of the main points of design integration into all of these cars, and few have more evident cues than this Ferrari Concept. Aside from looking nothing like a Ferrari, the car draws from the Ferrari 250 Testarossa prototype, and the twin-turbined F-18. Thank Albanian designer Marin Myftiu for this one.
02 – Lamborghini Perdigón
The Perdigón concept takes Lamborghini’s stealth jet inspired design language and turns the dial up to 11. The whole concept features sharp angles and polygonal surfaces reminiscent of aircraft like the F117 Nighthawk and F22 Raptor.
01 – USAF Mustang X-1
The USAF hired Galpin Auto Sports to transform a Mustang and a Challenger into two serious supercars in hopes of attracting gearheads to Air Force recruiting events.
