Only the most unreliable piles need apply

 

Classique Tahoma - 1979 Olds Cutlass & Buick LeSabre diesel (bennys Lowrider conversion) sports classics

 

Declasse Brigham - 1988 Caprice & Crown Vic (bennys Donk conversion) saloons

 

Gallivanter Baller OG - Range Rover Classic, SUVs

 

Grotti Magnum - Ferrari 308GTS, sports classics

 

Hijak Pole Position - Caparo T1, supers

 

Lampadati Eridanus - Lancia Delta Integrale, sports

 

Reliable RolyPoly - Reliant Regal supervan, vans

 

Ron Energies Deerstalker - Ineos Grenadier & NAS Defender 110, off road

 

Rune Raskya - Yugo, compacts

 

Shrewsbury Thumper - Royal Enfield Interceptor, motorcycles

 

Willard by Willard - Cimarron by Cadillac, compacts

I love to see the LTD Crown Vic, call it the Valid Stanier LSD Classic or something, also a Willard Idaho based on a 80's Buick Riveria similar to the VC model, for the Willard car, the one be called the Willard Classic as well as the GTA4 Willard, the Baller OG should be the Huntley Baller or something like that, also don't for get to add the new Land Rover Defender caller the Gallivanter Land roamer and the original Defender be called Land Roamer Classic, I also love more Poopbox and Econocar tbh, also more Oldsmobile like the Vista Cruiser and Toronado, also cars like the Plymouth Prowler (Schyster Stalker), Chrylser PT Cruiser, Chevy SSR and HHR, so yeah

[MekhiSkyline]

Well Dodge is bringing back the Durango Hellcat for 2023 and booooy Durango Hellcat ppl are not happy, they should’ve kept in production to begin with tbh. I wonder if R* will make a parody of the outrage lol.

 

Bravado Gresley Hellfire (Or STX)

And it looks like there bringing new colors for it too.

Bravado Buffalo E (Dodge Charger Daytona EV)

This would be the first electric vehicle in the game to do wheelies lol. It also needs to be an Imani Tech & HSW car!

Bollokan Entrance (Hyundai N Vision 74)

 

Brute Mammoth E (GMC Hummer EV)

With the amount of attention & hype this car is (rightfully) getting, they'd be crazy not to add it. I'd also like to see some other Korean cars like the Ioniq 5, i30/Veloster/Elantra N and the Stinger GT.

[Tennyzulander]

Not a fan of Dodge or their new EV. Not into EVs. Sorry. I'm glad that Ford is continuing the V8 in the next gen 650S Mustang. Mustang is the only muscle/pony car that hasn't discontinued.

Exactly, I love this car’s Cyberpunk look.

[DM_Tony]

We all know it's coming at some point ... we'll get a new Bravado Bison (STX, Hellfire, RTX?) to reflect the standard Ram TRX:

 

 

Perhaps a Benny's upgrade to reflect Hennessey's Mammoth or 6X6 (need to stock one first though!) w more in depth upgrades

 

 

 

 

We need a new Canis Seminole Tomahawk - long overdue!

 

 

Whilst great, maybe the Gauntlet Hellfire could get a Benny's upgrade to reflect Hennessey's HPE1000 upgrades? I'm sure folks would be happy with the amount of interior customization options! Maybe call it the 'El Diablo' or have a small Bravado logo with a 'red eye' on the side

 

 

If not then the new jailbreak convertible

 

 

Bravado could place the hellfire engine in the Mesa for the Mesa Grande (Jeep Trailcat)

 

 

But knowing R* they be like: shove it in the Minivan - Pacifica Hellcat

Bravado Buffalo E (Dodge Charger Daytona EV)

Be interesting to see if we get the Buffalo EV as standard in the next GTA entry. Or maybe even be able to choose between ICE or EV versions if car customization is on point. Cabrio versions being just an upgrade rather than a separate vehicle altogether.

 

I think R* would call it the Bravado Gresley Hellhound

 

Edit: Dodge Magnum (2005 - 2008)

 

 

Chrysler 300C (SRT8  in Breaking Bad or modern) - We need (some version of) the PMP 600 back!

There is a lack of tailfins in GTA Online, and what better way to revive the aesthetic than the 1960 Chrysler Imperial (Schyster Independent). 

 

Spoiler

 

...or the 1958/1959 Cadillac Coupe de Ville, but I would imagine it has already been posted extensively.

 

Also, I'm not sure if this content is allowed on this topic; but it pertains to vehicles so I would assume so:

 

I believe the Goodyear Neothane tires from 1961 would be a great new customization option, especially for classic cars.

Sorry but iFruit sucks, the Social Club's crew color editor sucks and i'm tired of having to jump through countless hoops

by performing needlessly complicated methods and techniques of manipulations to change my car's f*cking paint and rim color.

 

 

1 I want the ability to edit my car's paint with RVB sliders and a brightness slider to create any color shade desired.

 

2 I want the ability to choose my car's paint finish (gloss, matte, satin, metallic, chrome and choose any pearlescent with any finish i want).

 

3 I want the same type of sliders for my rims with the possibility to paint the stock rims.

 

4 I want the ability to edit my license plate's text in any custom shop (with the ability to have no text at all).

 

5 I want to be able to put North Yankton plates on my car.

 

6 I want to be able to tint my windscreen.

 

7 I want to be able to tint my car's windows green and many other shades like the neons have (the green option does exist but isn't available through normal means).

 

8 Why can't we do this? WHY???

 

 

(Also, Imani Tech should be available to any non weaponized vehicle. Just sayin'...)

I think the Business battles are a bit bugged, been bugged since before the Criminal Enterprise update, a bug when you enter your building or go to your building but don't go in and exit out, the business battle event disappear off the map like it isn't going on, who has this issue?

Im still waiting for the Lincoln Futura to be added into GTA Online that you can customize into the original Batmobile (considering we already have Vigilante as the Tumbler-batmobile thing)

 

 

 

Mafia 2 already got one.

 

 

And Saints Row 2022 of all places allows you to transform a 70's land yacht into one!

Ngl, love to see the Futura in the game and be under the in game version of Lincoln or probably Vapid judging to Rockstar since the Chino is in Vapid even though it is a Lincoln, also love the Batmobile variant as a Benny's or weaponised version of it, so yeah

We need more Hotring cars tbh, we only have the Hotring Sabre, we need more variants from different brands and different era and design, heck even pick-up variants and such, they did it with the Open Wheels, why not do the same to the Hotring cars, also have them in a separate or in their own class 

 

Also, love if they bring in Bloodring Racers as well, like a Bloodring Tornado and such, also bring back the Oceanic from GTA VC and SA as well as a Bloodring variant, also other variants of Bloodring cars as well, also a Tornado Gasser as well and other Gassers and drag cars and bikes, so yeah

[Tuntchio]

So, I've been making some cool crew colors at Zanthera's thread and I've come up with lots of hexes that I didn't know what to do with. I then created a thread just to expose them as a kind of virtual color library, named Tuntchio's Encycolorpedia.

 

If you've seem my job and/or like to give your cars unique and special colors, feel free to take a look at

 

[Z_E_B_R_A_3]

You know what? I just wish i could buy the Space Docker.

It makes the P12 Diamond look like a walk through the park.

But unlocking the P12 was mostly fun and this cursed arena thing is not.

 

I wish we could customize the Space Docker... and make it fly. And i kinda wish we could get more over the top goofy alien themed vehicles...

Rather than giving us cheap T shirts from time to time, you could give us some Mount Chiliad related mysteries or quests to unlock alien/Epsilon liveries, alien/Epsilon clothes

or even alien themed vehicles! I'd take more fun/goofy vehicles over weaponized vehicles any day. We got enough mayhem in the streets already. I want more goofy stuff and creativity.

 

Wait a minute... That reminds me of something...

 

Manufacturer : Pegassi

Model : Faggio Mk ll

Price : Whatever 

Engine sound : Oppressor Mk ll mixed with Space Docker or another UFO type sound

Performances : With impressive acceleration and a top speed faster than many helicopters, it's simply an Oppressor Mk ll

without any weapons but at least twice as fast and the boost lasts like the Scramjet while reloading as fast as the Vigilante's.

 

Imani tech to counter missiles is available for this puppy but you can't use any weapon in this thing! It could be the friendly brother of the Oppressor.

For extra spice, reuse most of the Faggio Mod's customization options and add some alien themed elements to it. Fun guaranteed.

Vigilante Classic would be amazing, but seeing a full Tumbler by itself (They could just connect the rear wheels) would be amazing regardless. It really should appear in the next dlc (since its supposedly might be movie-based since Michael is most likely gonna be in the next dlc). But R* finally added a Camaro so its not to late, R* maybe is learning from Mafia 2 in terms of realistic vehicle design (definitely dont have a problem with that). 

The the two rear wheels on each side they can just connect to each other.

This thing would be so f*cking amazing.

 

Some Batmobiles are nice and some didn’t age very well.

 

This is probably the most attractive & menacing Batmobile of all time. (Vigilante Muscle)

You’d definitely had to experience the sound in theaters lol.

I also still want the scramjet MK2

Cant forget about the Wraith

Also other cars that need HSW

Speaking of Batmobile vibes (This needs to be an Imani Tech Vehicle, imagine someone being off radar at night in this thing with no lights on?, and with the Tumbler, turn its lights on all of a sudden would scare the sh*t outta me)

I don't mean to be insulting you at all, @MekhiSkyline. Don't take it personal, buddy. I'm just letting out some "smoke"...

 

Spoiler

I enjoy engines and machines for the charm emanating from their guts of metal. Like watchmaking or a guitarist performing a complex riff at a very high pace or a clock ringing its bell.

The thrill is fantastic when you know the machine or creature was constructed or learned to not allow failure to happen even if the risk of eveything going wrong in an instant is still there,

hence where the thrill comes from... There is something incredibly satisfying to me about carefully man made, crafted, measured and tailored instruments and components or human talent

performing a very complex motion to produce a new energy form or sound... If that action is started by an explosions and fueled by fire, you got the most badass, best sounding machine

that was ever created (in my opinion)... We, petrolheads, love to banter about what is best or sounds best, V8? V10? V12? V Twin? Flat 6? W16?! Etc. But i think we would all agree

that what makes those machines magic is their hearts. Seeing this electric tidal wave submerging the market has been quite an apocalypstical and terrifying spectacle for me,

who grew up constantly watching those metal roaring beasts on TV and daydreaming about the day i would finally own one. But i welcome any change as long as it doesn't kill something i love.

 

I never thought a car could make me sympathize with the Ford Mustang Mach E... The Mach E was everything but a muscle/pony car.

It stole the Mustang name and it didn't try one second to be one but it succeeded at what it tried to be, which is a boring electric SUV stealing the Mustang name for its publicity... It's disgusting but

this, on the other hand, is like an high speed train desperately trying to convince me that it's an old steam locomotive for its cool factor... It's not and the more it screams it is, the more i'm embarrassed for it.

It's needlessly loud and very pretentious to a certain extent but hey... The front looks cool so i guess we can call it an electric muscle car so all is forgiven... right?

That to me is like driving a big car with circus speakers constantly screaming in a megaphone for people to look at you. It's just incredibly tacky and uncouth. There's nothing rebelious about it to me.

It reminds me of that "IT'S MA'AM!" meme!  "IT'S MUSCLE!" says the electric car! I find it amusing and heartbreaking at the same time.

 

"We still have our right to remain loud"

What's the point of being loud if you sound like sh*t (which i know is subjective) and if it's fake in the first place?? I never cared much for the "loudness" of a car

but for its personality and "voice" to give it character... Old Rockstars don't have the best of voices anymore (especially compared to what the kids can do with their technology today)

but it's their roughness that gives them this natural "pure" charisma. They're not the fastest, not the loudest, not the most precise but there is this strange feeling you have when seeing them...

It's like walking into an old cathedral and hearing the organist play. It's old and tumbledown but it oozes with character. This SRT Daytona is like an electric robotic voice in a pop song. Sure it's kinda cool

but it'll never be as thrilling as listening to Bon Scott yell at the top of his lungs, Freddy Mercury nailing every notes of Bohemian Rhapsody, Hendrix playing guitar with his damn teeth

or Jerry Lee Lewis setting his piano on fire! It's like that holographic Tupac doing a staged, pre rendered animation... What even is the point???

 

"The right to push people's buttons"

Oh you sure pushed mines! 

 

"We have the god given right to save the muscle car"

I'd say you just killed it.

 

"We have the right to Dodge convention... See what i did there..."

Yes i saw what you did there... You bent the knee to fuel regulations and went all in on the EV market because it was this or death to the brand.

 

"We don't need keys... where we're going"

I don't need you where i'm going.

 

"All muscle... All electric"

"All electric... No muscle"

 

But it's not like this was brand new.

To me, one of those cars is a slick, innovative and game changing beast,

the other is an old grandpa, desperately trying to be relevant while looking overweight...

But some of its soul was still there...

Was...

AWD Burnouts

 

A burnout from all four wheels at the same time would require an incredible amount of torque (but it's absolutely possible) but i don't think it would last long

because the wheels would inevitably catch grip again unless you'd run on some very slippery drift tires of some sort and even then, the car would not be tied to anything...

A rear wheel drive burnout is just pure silly fun while the front wheels are doing all the work to prevent the rear ones from making the car break loose while letting the engine sing.

This... An all wheel drive burnout seems quite dangerous to be honest (i guess there's some thrill to be found here) but no matter what, i don't know about you guys,

but when i'm watching muscle cars doing burnouts on Youtube, the primary reason i'm here in the first place is to listen to the engine...

 

Not to mention that stupid fake transmission that just limits the engine. Once again a piece of technological wonder desperately trying to replicate the charm of an old mechanical linkage.

You can't be a jedi with a plastic fork, you can't be a knight with a recycled plastic armor but you can sure try and i wish you good luck...

Oh and that Fratzonic exhaust? You want sound?? Just you wait for them to put out even more noise regulations...

 

I am sure they will find ways to tweak electric engines around and make those cars even more enjoyable and dramatic than they already are for EV enthusiasts...

They're already surely exciting and very performant but they quite literally don't speak to me... It's a language i don't recognize and while welcoming, i really fear for those "old beasts".

I didn't believe i would ever be utterly apathetic to a new Mopar but here i am. It will sound like massive cope (and it absolutely is) but you know...

Those old gas hungry machines will still be around long after our death... Like steam trains, pirate ships and old cannons, i believe those old muscle cars will stay in our minds

and will keep inspiring us for many years to come as they do today... They came from a different era and trying to replicate them only leaves me with more envy for the past generation and their toys...

We'll see what toys the future has in store for us but for now? I'm really not impressed... But who knows? The electric guitar wasn't such a bad idea after all...

 

I swear i was born one century too late...

I'm a boomer stuck in a zoomer body!

I'm too young to be too old for this sh*t!

 

But i'm rambling and i should know better so allow me to ask for an humble Beater Vigero...

Spoiler

That should solve some of our problems regarding its dated design and its lack of customization.

 

As well as this old girl...

A burnout from all four wheels at the same time would require an incredible amount of torque (but it's absolutely possible) but i don't think it would last long

because the wheels would inevitably catch grip again unless you'd run on some very slippery drift tires of some sort and even then, the car would not be tied to anything...

A rear wheel drive burnout is just pure silly fun while the front wheels are doing all the work to prevent the rear ones from making the car break loose while letting the engine sing.

This... An all wheel drive burnout seems quite dangerous to be honest (i guess there's some thrill to be found here) but no matter what, i don't know about you guys,

but when i'm watching muscle cars doing burnouts on Youtube, the primary reason i'm here in the first place is to listen to the engine...

 

Not to mention that stupid fake transmission that just limits the engine. Once again a piece of technological wonder desperately trying to replicate the charm of an old mechanical linkage.

You can't be a jedi with a plastic fork, you can't be a knight with a recycled plastic armor but you can sure try and i wish you good luck...

Oh and that Fratzonic exhaust? You want sound?? Just you wait for them to put out even more noise regulations...

 

I am sure they will find ways to tweak electric engines around and make those cars even more enjoyable and dramatic than they already are for EV enthusiasts...

They're already surely exciting and very performant but they quite literally don't speak to me... It's a language i don't recognize and while welcoming, i really fear for those "old beasts".

I didn't believe i would ever be utterly apathetic to a new Mopar but here i am. It will sound like massive cope (and it absolutely is) but you know...

Those old gas hungry machines will still be around long after our death... Like steam trains, pirate ships and old cannons, i believe those old muscle cars will stay in our minds

and will keep inspiring us for many years to come as they do today... They came from a different era and trying to replicate them only leaves me with more envy for the past generation and their toys...

We'll see what toys the future has in store for us but for now? I'm really not impressed... But who knows? The electric guitar wasn't such a bad idea after all...

 

I swear i was born one century too late...

I'm a boomer stuck in a zoomer body!

I'm too young to be too old for this sh*t!

 

But i'm rambling and i should know better so allow me to ask for an humble Beater Vigero...

That should solve some of our problems regarding its dated design and its lack of customization.

 

As well as this old girl...

Its all good man, the sound does suck balls lmao (the start up sounds very impressive), which is really a shame cuz the sound doesn’t match its looks, its like it came straight outta Gran Turismo lol, I just like how it’s basically a callback to the Coke Bottle Chargers at the time. But who knows maybe R* can possibly make the engine sound better, or like how they did Reverse Pop-Ups for the Torero XO, maybe they can do a similar idea to the Charger (Add a grille and have pop up headlights like the 68-70 Charger?)

They can apply it to the front.

Annis Euros Classic (Datsun 280ZX S130)

A stylishly and boxy rendition of the Z from the 60s & 70s, the 190z just makes my eyes bleed from the awful combination mixed with the 2000GT, this is a better alternative.

You know what? I just wish i could buy the Space Docker.

It makes the P12 Diamond look like a walk through the park.

But unlocking the P12 was mostly fun and this cursed arena thing is not.

 

I wish we could customize the Space Docker... and make it fly. And i kinda wish we could get more over the top goofy alien themed vehicles...

Rather than giving us cheap T shirts from time to time, you could give us some Mount Chiliad related mysteries or quests to unlock alien/Epsilon liveries, alien/Epsilon clothes

or even alien themed vehicles! I'd take more fun/goofy vehicles over weaponized vehicles any day. We got enough mayhem in the streets already. I want more goofy stuff and creativity.

 

Wait a minute... That reminds me of something...

 

Manufacturer : Pegassi

Model : Faggio Mk ll

Price : Whatever 

Engine sound : Oppressor Mk ll mixed with Space Docker or another UFO type sound

Performances : With impressive acceleration and a top speed faster than many helicopters, it's simply an Oppressor Mk ll

without any weapons but at least twice as fast and the boost lasts like the Scramjet while reloading as fast as the Vigilante's.

 

Imani tech to counter missiles is available for this puppy but you can't use any weapon in this thing! It could be the friendly brother of the Oppressor.

For extra spice, reuse most of the Faggio Mod's customization options and add some alien themed elements to it. Fun guaranteed.

We need more novelty vehicles, don't the last time we've got one, but we need one for seasonal events, I loved the Frankin Stange, Vigilante, Lurcher, Sovereign, Scramjet, The Liberator and so on, we need more for the likes of Halloween, Independence Day, Festive, Valentines and something for St Patrick's Day and Easter, love to see Floats in the game or other non-seasonal novelty vehicles like Commercial vehicles like a Hot-Dog van, some 50's or 60's style stuff and so on, so yeah

Vigilante Classic would be amazing, but seeing a full Tumbler by itself (They could just connect the rear wheels) would be amazing regardless. It really should appear in the next dlc (since its supposedly might be movie-based since Michael is most likely gonna be in the next dlc). But R* finally added a Camaro so its not to late, R* maybe is learning from Mafia 2 in terms of realistic vehicle design (definitely dont have a problem with that). 

The the two rear wheels on each side they can just connect to each other.

This thing would be so f*cking amazing.

 

Some Batmobiles are nice and some didn’t age very well.

 

This is probably the most attractive & menacing Batmobile of all time. (Vigilante Muscle)

You’d definitely had to experience the sound in theaters lol.

I also still want the scramjet MK2

Cant forget about the Wraith

Also other cars that need HSW

Speaking of Batmobile vibes (This needs to be an Imani Tech Vehicle, imagine someone being off radar at night in this thing with no lights on?, and with the Tumbler, turn its lights on all of a sudden would scare the sh*t outta me)

AWD Burnouts

An updated Faction based on the Grand National GNX? HSW Hotring Sabre? Nice, I love the GTA4 Sabre back too and more Hotring race cars as well, Rockstar please?

Pfister Bergmeister - Porsche 917K & 962C

“The most notorious, infamous, winningest, mass-produced and perennial sports prototype in racing history. It has won every single championship it was eligible for during it’s decades-long career, and several it wasn’t. Even today it gives many of the top dogs a run for their money. Not bad for a car whose detractors said its turbocharged aircooled engine design was obsolete when it first rolling out of the factory in 1969, eh?”

When a 1 million dollar costing indie science fiction car football game has infinitely better sounding engine sounds than a billions dollar earning AAA game with a 260 million dollar budget...

I guess money can't buy everything after all!

 

 

Meanwhile, Dodge showing them how it's done by unveiling a fat looking future four door sedan with speakers "a Fratzonic exhaust system"

that literaly sounds like a generic 90's arcade racer game's engine sound (and i'm generous). That's not exactly my idea of "old school"...

 

 

I don't mean to be insulting you at all, @MekhiSkyline. Don't take it personal, buddy. I'm just letting out some "smoke"...

I enjoy engines and machines for the charm emanating from their guts of metal. Like watchmaking or a guitarist performing a complex riff at a very high pace or a clock ringing its bell.

The thrill is fantastic when you know the machine or creature was constructed or learned to not allow failure to happen even if the risk of eveything going wrong in an instant is still there,

hence where the thrill comes from... There is something incredibly satisfying to me about carefully man made, crafted, measured and tailored instruments and components or human talent

performing a very complex motion to produce a new energy form or sound... If that action is started by an explosions and fueled by fire, you got the most badass, best sounding machine

that was ever created (in my opinion)... We, petrolheads, love to banter about what is best or sounds best, V8? V10? V12? V Twin? Flat 6? W16?! Etc. But i think we would all agree

that what makes those machines magic is their hearts. Seeing this electric tidal wave submerging the market has been quite an apocalypstical and terrifying spectacle for me,

who grew up constantly watching those metal roaring beasts on TV and daydreaming about the day i would finally own one. But i welcome any change as long as it doesn't kill something i love.

 

I never thought a car could make me sympathize with the Ford Mustang Mach E... The Mach E was everything but a muscle/pony car.

It stole the Mustang name and it didn't try one second to be one but it succeeded at what it tried to be, which is a boring electric SUV stealing the Mustang name for its publicity... It's disgusting but

this, on the other hand, is like an high speed train desperately trying to convince me that it's an old steam locomotive for its cool factor... It's not and the more it screams it is, the more i'm embarrassed for it.

It's needlessly loud and very pretentious to a certain extent but hey... The front looks cool so i guess we can call it an electric muscle car so all is forgiven... right?

That to me is like driving a big car with circus speakers constantly screaming in a megaphone for people to look at you. It's just incredibly tacky and uncouth. There's nothing rebelious about it to me.

It reminds me of that "IT'S MA'AM!" meme!  "IT'S MUSCLE!" says the electric car! I find it amusing and heartbreaking at the same time.

 

"We still have our right to remain loud"

What's the point of being loud if you sound like sh*t (which i know is subjective) and if it's fake in the first place?? I never cared much for the "loudness" of a car

but for its personality and "voice" to give it character... Old Rockstars don't have the best of voices anymore (especially compared to what the kids can do with their technology today)

but it's their roughness that gives them this natural "pure" charisma. They're not the fastest, not the loudest, not the most precise but there is this strange feeling you have when seeing them...

It's like walking into an old cathedral and hearing the organist play. It's old and tumbledown but it oozes with character. This SRT Daytona is like an electric robotic voice in a pop song. Sure it's kinda cool

but it'll never be as thrilling as listening to Bon Scott yell at the top of his lungs, Freddy Mercury nailing every notes of Bohemian Rhapsody, Hendrix playing guitar with his damn teeth

or Jerry Lee Lewis setting his piano on fire! It's like that holographic Tupac doing a staged, pre rendered animation... What even is the point???

 

"The right to push people's buttons"

Oh you sure pushed mines! 

 

"We have the god given right to save the muscle car"

I'd say you just killed it.

 

"We have the right to Dodge convention... See what i did there..."

Yes i saw what you did there... You bent the knee to fuel regulations and went all in on the EV market because it was this or death to the brand.

 

"We don't need keys... where we're going"

I don't need you where i'm going.

 

"All muscle... All electric"

"All electric... No muscle"

 

But it's not like this was brand new.

To me, one of those cars is a slick, innovative and game changing beast,

the other is an old grandpa, desperately trying to be relevant while looking overweight...

But some of its soul was still there...

Was...

Yes, I don't know what they did with the 190z, should be just be based on 2000GT, dunno why it has the 280z front design and not another design again, but love a car with the 2000GT front look and a car based on the 280z and such, so yeah

Love a 5th Camaro called the Vigero ZS and a modern Rancher based on the new modern Blazer, call it the Rancher ZR or something, so yeah

[Z_E_B_R_A_3]

I'd love a convertible 190z. Apart from the headlights, it would nail that Miami Vice Ferrari Daytona look. But then again, i'd love more convertibles in general.

I'd love it if they'd added more variants per cars like two doors, four doors and why not different trims. I think people like having different trims.

It's easy to do and it expands the lore and possibilities of our beloved cars.

 

For example, we got the:

Sentinel / Sentinel XS

Sultan / Sultan RS

Dukes / Beater Dukes

Gauntlet Classic / Gauntlet Classic Custom (still waiting for a proper Daytona/Superbird...)

Futo / Futo GTX

 

Little variations add nuances to the cars and that makes it very interesting...

 

I could to with this too...

Sabre Turbo / Sabre GT (The GT could have slightly softer suspensions with a focus more on comfort and luxury than raw power, like those Gran Torino Brougham and Elite)

Tulip / Tulip ST or SP (Some kind of Super Sport Chevelle/GSX Skylark/Gran Torino Sport variant of the Tulip. ST could mean Super Track, SP could mean Super Package or Sport Package)

Vigero / Vigero ST/SP (Same treatment as the Tulip ST/SP)

Infernus / Infernus Andiamo (Like tho Super Veloce Lamborghinis, focused on performances)

Infernus Classic / Infernus Andiamo Classic

A four door Impaler

Vapid Ellie / Vapid Dominator Classic (Yes. I'm rambling again about that stock Ellie/Fastback, i know JUST GIMME!! [STEVE MCQUEEN INTENSIFIES] )

A chad, super aggressive performance focused coupe or fastback Regina? Imagine that! Like a Super Bee / Cougar mix version of the Regina!

A stock Vamos (A proper handling, stock Vamos, i know i'm repeating myself but man! It's ain't my fault if the Vamos is a freakshow! Suave means smooth in spanish)

Gauntlet Hellfire / Gauntlet STX (A softer, cooler version with no extended arches and silly splitter and better handling but less horsepower)

Buffalo STX / Buffalo Hellfire (Jeez, just imagine the performances of that thing...)

Turismo R / Turismo RSS or XXX R (A raw, track focused Turismo R like the FXX K)

Tampa Drift / Tampa Drift Mk ll (But they could simply add more customization to it, i wouldn't complain)

Tyrus / Tyrus Custom (or just let us make it look like a stock S7... Please!!)

Z-Type / Z-Type Custom (*Starts sweating*)

Roosevelt / Roosevelt Cabrio (*Bleeds from nose*)

Fräken Stange / Fränken Stange Custom (*Pornographic details have been censored*)

Hotknife / Hotknife Custom

Bullet / Bullet Custom

Feltzer / The Feltzer from IV

Zentorno / Zentorno Cabrio

Tampesta / Tampesta Cabrio

Sabre Turbo Cabrio

Dukes Cabrio

Vigero Cabrio

Gauntlet Cabrio

Virgo Cabrio

Furia Cabrio

Cheetah Cabrio

Cheetah Cabrio Classic

Give us moah cabrios, damnit!
