About this block
1980s four-door sedan with turbine-style wheels, drawn in side elevation. It measures 14' 6" long and 4' 11" high (4.41 m × 1.49 m), and it is drawn 1:1, full size, so it drops into any drawing set up in meters or in inches without rescaling.
From the Cars, side view library: 18 blocks drawn to one standard, each one available on its own.
In practice
Where it goes
A mid-size family sedan is the default car for suburban house elevations, school drop-off sections and the elevation of a supermarket parking lot. The turbine-style wheels give it a slightly sporting character that suits a dealership frontage; in a row-house street elevation it fills a space without dominating the houses.
Clearances to leave
The 14 ft 6 in (441 cm) body fits a 18 ft (550 cm) stall with room to open the trunk, and the 59 in (149 cm) height sits under a 7 ft (213 cm) garage soffit with margin for a roof antenna. In a driveway elevation leave 48 in (120 cm) between the car and the house wall for passing.
Pairs with
Park it in front of the 1980s wedge-nosed four-door sedan to compare two body styles of the same decade, with Woman in short-sleeved dress pointing sideways at the curb. A row of three with alternating colors fills a parking lot elevation.

Design notes
- Street trees are usually planted 19' 8" to 32' 10" apart, at least 3' 3" from the curb.
- A parallel parking bay is about 6' 7" to 8' 2" wide and 18' 1" to 19' 8" long.
- People and cars at real size give clients an instant sense of scale in a facade drawing.
