The modeling of the engine bonnet looks like Aston Martin.

EDIT: Eargh, not engine bonnet. What are those on the sides of engine bonnet in English? Spoilers? I meant them.

Now when I think of it, Aston Martins are rounder than that. :p

It looks like BMW 8-series meets 70's or 80's Vette & Ferraris... 8) Could it be an early McLaren?

They are called wings (Br.) or fenders (Am.). Bonnet (Br.) is also called hood (Am.).

Other examples of differences in automotive vocabulary:

British / American
windscreen / windshield
indicator light / turn signal
silencer / muffler
tail light / tail lamp
sidelight / parking light
boot / trunk
number plate / license plate
wing mirror / side mirror
accelerator / gas pedal
gear lever / gear shift
petrol / gas
transmission shaft / drive shaft
tyre / tire
carburettor / carburetor
