Car Model - Mclaren lm

Hey guys... I'm trying to model a Mclaren lm. A little unsure of how to proceed. If anyone could point me in the direction of a tutorial or give me any advice on modeling methods I'd really appreciate it.

How I got this far was I built 3 views from a blueprint. They didn't match 100 percent incidentally. Is that common? I mean that the front view was the same height as the side view but much narrower than the top view.

Anyway, I created a CV curve in the side view and duplicated it to make a series of curves following the shape of the car. I tried to use Birail to create a surface but that didn't work so I lofted between the curves to create the surface you see below.
