On his website, Erik Leppen posted a 21-MB PDF Building Instruction file for his LOW Lego Technic HYPERCAR. It has also been posted to Rebrickable.com , where he wrote that this Lego "Technic supercar [is] named Hypercar because it is only nine studs high (not counting the wheels). The body, including windscreen, is part of the structure and gives it rigidity. The limited height and this structure made that no space was left for a gearbox. Features steering, [independent] suspension and a [rear-drive] V10 piston engine." The doors open manually -- see the 11 pictures on his webpage.

Crazy lowrider:))

I think it would look better if he make bumper and and skirts lower 1 stud. Ground clearance descerases, and car will look more sporty

Wait, what?

It's not like this guy is an official designer being paid lots of money to spend all his working time to design lego models with all the recouses of TLG (practicly unlimited supply of parts with the option of choosing new colours and having a dedicated design team on hand to create any new parts he wants). From TLG I expect something that is the best it could possibly be. But from a MOCer you can't expect the same standards. This car ain't just another car. It's a mans efforts at trying to create something awesome using what precious little time and recources he has. Thankyou Dluders for bringing all the MOCs you do to our attention. I love seeing what others are building and this car is obviously a big effort to create something awesome for us to enjoy.

Looks good, nearly as high as the diamater of the wheels. I like this design with the simple technik. But I think a gearbox would be possible, even it would be in a bit high position in the interior. But if it would be a linear one, the gearbox axles could be placed side by side for smaller size in height.
