Free CAD block from the Cars, side view library (18 blocks), drawn 1:1.
About this block
1980s wedge-nosed four-door sedan, drawn in side elevation. It measures 14' 11" long and 4' 5" high (4.55 m × 1.35 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
Office-park elevations, hotel parking lots and the sections of a multi-story parking garage use a sedan of ordinary length, and the wedge nose reads as a 1980s design in any facade study. Place it in the open-air parking lot of a business park elevation, or in a section through the ramp of a split-level garage.
Clearances to leave
A 14 ft 11 in (455 cm) body leaves 37 in (95 cm) spare in a 18 ft (550 cm) stall, enough for a bumper overhang on a ramp. Height of 53 in (135 cm) under a 7 ft (213 cm) soffit allows a 30 in (75 cm) service zone for ducts; in 45-degree parking draw the aisle at 11 ft 6 in (350 cm).
Pairs with
Group it with the 1980s four-door sedan with turbine-style wheels and the 1970s four-door luxury sedan with long hood for a three-car office-park row, with Person in short sleeves looking over shoulder walking between them. Gray hatching on the ramp face shows the slope.

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.
