Coil, Pegassi, and now Ocelot.Its cool, though.

The Coil Voltic is supposed to be the Tesla Roadster, based on the Lotus Elise, but not a Lotus anymore, so that's fine.

Can anybody tell by the files if it will be available in races?

Last night they showed Basic Instinct on TV. Could this be a sign? Keeping my legs crossed for tomorrow. :lol:

My hype is dead as it won't be available in races.

What I don't get is why this car was given those machine guns which have pathetic damage and stupid camos that don't fit it instead of being amphibious and being usable in races. It's the r2k, blazer aqua and nightshark all over again with those guns that do nothing good but just probably will restrict it from being usable in races.. :/

They think adding peashooter guns will turn it into a military vehicle. Like, we already have enough military vehicles!

is it possible for the ardent to have upgrades in the bunker to allow it to go underwater?

It's not looking good, but I sure hope so. It's just such a strange vehicle, with only pointless guns and camo to make it weaponized, seems like there should be more to it. Has anyone found a description yet?

All the way back on page 1

 

 

A description that pretty much confirms it to be weaponised:

0x5691FB77 = It's a rare car that allows you to be perfectly composed, effortlessly suave and extraordinarily violent all at the same time - and yet, somehow, the Ardent does all that and more. Behind the wheel of this masterpiece there's nothing you can't do: lose your pursuers, pop the dual machine guns, gun down the survivors, drop a pithy remark, open the champagne, have a quickie, drive into the sea, realize you've made a terrible mistake, and swiftly drown.

"and swiftly drown............ unless you spend 225,000+ on fast tracking upgrades to modify the car

The rear lights look like they were nicked from a Kouki(after face/asslift) Toyota AE86 Sprinter Trueno lmao

Besides that, I do hope that one day, maybe one day, they will add an Unweaponized version of it that will also be cheaper, as I friggin' love the Espirit.

I dunno, the description could go either way on the submersible thing. Just have to wait and see.

It might have been asked/answered already, I don't have the energy to look through nine pages, but will this car be stored in your personal apartment garages, i.e. not in a vehicle warehouse/bunker or whatever?

I'm hoping this car has a raggedy engine, plenty of crackles and pops like the XA. I've been looking forward to this car the most!

I HAVE deep infatuation with pop up headlight cars.

I really hope this car will not be screwed and bugged like the Torero. If it will, then I'm done with R*.

I like the Torero a lot but that plain black interior killed it off for me. Wanted to paint the interior cream or straw brown and the exterior VC yellow-ish.

 

The Ardent is a lovely car too. It just sucks big time we can not use Sports Classics in Stunt races.

The only one Sports Classic we can use in Stunt races is the Benefactor Stirling GT.

^ we probably won't be able to use the ardent in ANY races if it turns out like the nightshark...

I don't understand. Instead of disabling the guns in races, they decide to disable the whole f*cking car. Are they stupid or what? The guns are practically useless to begin with. Whoever's in charge of the vehicle department over there at Rockstar needs to be fired!

Yeah Athens, it's mega dumb. I'm still hoping they just didn't bother with the nightshark but will do this one right. Not holding my breath though.

A great looking car with massive identity issues. The guns make you think it's a James Bond parody, but then you realise the still guns are useless and it can't go underwater. So maybe it's just a normal Lotus, but then you remember it has guns. Come on, either make it normal or go all the way, don't just ruin a good car and remove it from races by adding guns, of which I bet are going to be useless anyway like those found on the Aua Blazer. There's already an armed Tampa with rotating turret so why include guns on this car? What new potential could it possably have to offer?

As much as I love the looks of this car, I won't be buying it. I know they're small and barely noticable but just knowing those guns are there ruins the entire reason why I want that car. I just want a nice-looking car. Not too fancy, not too fast, no weird aerodynamic shapes, no guns... just a cool slightly-aged car.

It is rather quick, on par with the Stirling GT, the Infernus Classic and the Torero I'd say

doesn't even matter tbh, it's not even a sports classic when it comes to racing. it's just a title

Despite how badly botched it seems to be I'll still be buying it... when it goes on sale. It was never going to be worth much as a race car (although it should have been) but I love the esprit and it was gonna be a free roamer anyway.
