This is just weird.. what goes on in their minds/places of work? What conversations do they have? Do they just do this sh*t completely on purpose? I know there's supposed to be a certain amount of irony/spoofism going on but I just can't find reasons for their decisions, so many... So many things that make no financial sense from their point of view, or sense in any way at all to anyone. It's not about being unrealistic and expecting things we can't have, there's so much we can or could of had,and there are so many things that limit the scope of our cars,that ultimately limits the amount of money I need to spend,they are actually doing me favours of some sort by adding sh*t stuff and no space, I could be spending sooooo much more, as would other collectors.

Further more I think they may be alienating quite a few people(obvs not a prob to them), long standing fans,car guys and GTA guys, they put out the odd good thing and ruin the GTA world more with each thing they add that is half arsed or completely stupid to start with. Fk, they only need to talk to some actual car guys to get somethings right,seen as they can't manage to get basics right in this day and age of internet.

 

This is why you don't let fratboys run a billion dollar company. Bloody Housers, wankers!

Slightly off Topic but does anyone remember or had seen the movie Born to Run ?

 

Was a cheesy made for TV movie but had a pretty badass 70 Mustang and other great cars in it might make a red Ellie

Those old school hood scoops are hilarious and awesome lol.

 

 

It's off topic, but..

My first ever (drivable) vehicle was a 1995 Dodge Ram 1500, short cab, short bed. It was already lifted and on 33's when we bought it from a dealer.. And it had this F*CKING hood scoop. It looked SO bad. I have pictures somewhere.. God, it makes me shudder just thinking about it..

 

 

On topic: I'M SO FREAKIN EXCITED!!

Man, I can't wait to finally get a hand on this thing later today.

 

I'm so thrilled the Ellie made it into the first batch of drips!

Yeah so mach will probably give it a 20/10, but if you want my unbiased opinion (gm guy here), id give it a 7.5/10

 

You know, it looks a lot better on my screen. Front is flat, and the car looks long, but it still looks great. Sounds okay too, interior is gorgeous. I was expecting muscle car door panels and a reskinned dash, but it actually looks pretty unique.

 

Custom options are a bit of a let down, there isn't a nice rear exhaust set up and the side pipes leave you with this empty hole out back. Hood options aren't great either, the front splitters are hilarious and the wheels are a little thin to my liking.

 

Speaking of wheels, they actually get some negative camber when you lower the car. Not much, but its a neat little detail. Now, performance is a little weak, you can feel the car just not accelerating. But the car is very manageable if you know it's limits. You could probably get away with 7/10s most of the time, whereas the Coquette BlackFin is like a 5/10 in terms of limits. At the time of writing, the Ellie is 2.5 seconds slower per lap than the BlackFin on trench 2, and I haven't found a closer rival.

 

All in all, its a classic mustang, and a decent one at that. It doesn't cost much and its kind of fun to toss around, so yeah, its good.

The car is just "ok". It looks cool overall but needed more attention to details, including mechanics.. you can't even make donuts. I agree the front is flat and it looks longer than a Mustang.. I think more customization options could minimize some gaps. The interior is great but once again no customization.

I think they should have paired both Dominators instead of an electric hypercar.

 

Can't complain much about it, apart from some weak textures and some limited customization.

 

Thank you R* for making it happen!

It's an exhibit, not a car. Looks fantastic but I really can't be bothered to drive it anywhere.

Mach, please, make a report about handling... It's so awful...

Can't wait to try this out. Been my most requested vehicle for a while. Are the stripes secondary? Cause I wanna do white with blue Shelby stripes

Performance is bugged the same way that all the cars from this update are. I expect it to be fixed in the next update.

 

It doesn't perform bad at all though imo. Feels about the same as the Vigero to me.

 

Handling seems fine.

Unfortunately not, the stripes are liveries. There’s no dark blue stripes at all in fact, which was disappointing for me since I was hoping to go for a ‘65 GT350R look.

Mach, is that you?

It has a cheating track control... It's like you drive a sportscar with a muscle sound)

 

You even cannot do donuts on this!

Yes mate it's because it is bugged. That "traction control" is on every car in this update. I expect it to be changed.

Love the Vigero so this should be just lovely! But I do hope they fix the engine stuff.

 

 

Had a good feeling this would come out. Despite a lot saying it wouldn't. ;P

I think the nightshade just edges Ellie out. Which is depressing. Question is, do I really want to see if the hotknife is faster?

 

Yes I do I would very much like to do that.

I obviously did mine based on the Gone in 60 Seconds's Eleanor, I'm not a very creative person, but I'm satisfied with it nonetheless.

 

The interior of it is amazing as well.

 

Awesome car, nice job R*!

(Though I'm not forgiving you for all the sh*ts you made with the Jester Classic)

 

Now I'm off to work, I should be doing a proper shooting session with this babe tonight.

Pleasantly surprised it's out. Looks and sounds amazing. Boxy and tough looking. Going to the main garage.
