You really see this problem in the red car above.
I mean this was the 1960's and all, but it gave the cars a very wimpy and fragile look.
Of course this can be corrected with spacers and bigger wheels - and in my view should be.

I know exactly what you are talking about, but the solution you suggest is more easily said than done and I believe impossible to accomplish without corrupting the projectile-like character of the form.
The tumblehome at the bottom is essentially symetrical to the tumblehome at the beltline and this would have to be altered significantly, especially at the front wheel wells to maintain tyre clearance when turning.
So, how high is that waterfall, 30,40m? Izzat you w/red shirt near bottom? Izzat really on your property
