    Quote from "pollution free" (we know who they are) newsgroup:

    "There are only a few software packages that can actually hold, modify and
    check curvature continuity (easily). These include ICEM SURF (industry
    standard) Alias, Imageware/Freeform, PDGS and the CATIA 5 add on ACA module.
    (there may be more)

    Standard CAD packages like I-DEAS, UG, CATIA, PRO-E, SOLIDWORKS and RHINO
    cannot do this. Before people start to object to my last statement, Every
    CAD system can model a car body, just not to curvature continous industry
    tolerances. These are defined in the program, and are not as subjective as
    everybody seems to think."
