Here's one I found via Papermau's website. I added a couple of little craft 'jewels' (on the antenna and rear panel).

Another from the Kool Wheelz library is the Peugeot Spinner from Blade Runner 2049. I made this one in approximately 1/50 scale and made an attempt at a 'dystopian' display base. Hidden magnet attachment, again.
