Hi Ozturbo,
The model was definitely machined using the the 2 sided sided cutting strategy and there certainly aren't any undercuts left on the model.
One of the neat features in Cut3D is the option to 'overcut past the cut plane' so although you might have placed the cut plane in the middle of the car, using an overcut forces the cutter to machine further into the model = underneath the mirrors.
Looking at the preview for the Top Toolpath shows the material left under the mirrors. The second preview shows cutting from underneath the model, past the cut plane to remove the material from under the mirrors and door handles.
If you look at the rear spoiler on the F1 model you can see that it's sold because the cutter cannot get underneath this area.
You can test this for your self using the Trial version that will simulate the toolpaths and give the previews shown in the images attached.
See the attached images.
I hope this helps,
Tony
