Why isn't R* making actual lowriders into lowriders?

They are trying to keep list diverse, the chevy astro van ( moonbeam) is pretty popular in the scene but that minivan and primo are probably the worst additions. Instead of the minivan they could of added the picador and the savanna could of replaced the primo.

Easiest way = rockstar takes off the training wheels, opens benny's for all.

 

Rockstar's way = make every single f*cking thing an "event", "surprise", "new" or "updated"

 

Lol, i almost said "surely" we can't , but i caught myself.

 

CG Is not hacked, yet dlc's seem to be getting smaller. Ive heard the plan now is, 1 car per week released for april? This cant true?

 

Why? The torando does not deserve zebra print! Most unclean rockstar, most unclean.

The Blade is the most obvious choice and is is a tragedy it has not gotten the royal treatment yet.

One of many problems with building a lowrider out of the Blade AFX to begin with is the front beam axle. Also, i haven't seen to many lowriders based on the Ford Falcon, except for a few built in the 60's and early 70's and new builds based on the cars from that era.

Use common sense, folks. The obvious reason they have done assorted cars is to try to appeal to a broader cross-section of players. Don't like the traditional boat lowriders? Well, make a Sabre Turbo into one. Or a minivan. Etc. It takes a lot of work (presumably) to make all the parts and liveries for these, and we only have a limited number of them so far (9 plus the two racers), so they took a scattershot approach and diversified the look and feel of those nine as much as possible, while still basing them on cars that show up modded this way in real life. If they had only given us the Tornado, Voodoo, Emperor, Chino, Peyote, and Virgo, you'd have a different group of people (probably a larger one) complaining that all the lowriders look alike and they don't want to buy any car that looks like that.

 

I hope they all get added eventually (got a Peyote in storage that is already a beauty, but would benefit from a Benny's custom interior and wheels). But it makes sense that they would back-burner some of the more obvious cars for now, and put in more different kinds of cars.

 

As for the Buccaneer, like someone else said, that IS a classic lowrider. It presents differently with the top on, which makes it have more of a hotrod/muscle look, but with the top removed and the Benny's upgrade, that is 100% pure lowrider goodness.

Common sense and this place have never coexisted. I'm glad though that at least somebody else has it Edited by KornbreadMaf1a
