Hi everyone!
I have a question, is it better to model this car in polys then convert to subD, or just make hard edges and then smooth it? This is my first big project.. and its seems difficult to get very hard edges with smoothing.

can anyone help me?

Oh, I made a render to.. my first in mental ray, IT SHOWS user added image
