Wtf when I paint mine the strips are barely noticeable wtf !!!

 

Are you using a paint job in the metals section?

 

yea I was, ill have to try a classic paint like mach said. I hate how paints look different in lsc than when you take them outside. I cant seem to find a good color to match the real eleanor.

 

Give Metallic Silver w/Ice White Pearl a try. The black stripes still show very well and it looks really close to real life Eleanor.

 

I went with rolled steel classic but I like this combo too. I think the original was pepper grey but I only see grey in matte.

Where is the idle rumble though. This car is supposed to have like 500 hp lol

I dont understand how hard it would be to record the sound of a real muscle car and replace this crap sound.

 

 

Wtf are you talking about the idle is badass on this car. Are you even driving the right vehicle?

 

It literally sounds exactly as it should.

 

Edit: My bad that came out harsher than intended. Seriously though it has a real nice cammed engine idle.

 

it should be much louder. I literally have to blast my volume at double what I usually have it on just to hear it. My stock 93 sounds better than this lol

Oh idk about volume. My headphones play the idle of cars clear as day.

Just logged in quickly to get this baby. Too bad it isn't faster but it sure does look beautiful. The dashboard really reminds me of the interior of my old 77 Ford Maverick, which I guess looks almost like the Mustang interior. I dunno but I just think it looks awesome. Also, the windows handle!!!

A heads-up to anyone that worries about the engine model. As some of you know, the default engine looks like ass. BUT if you choose any of the exhausts that have blowers, the engine model will be swapped with a much higher quality one. The thing is... the hood doesn't open. At least with the option I went with (blower with back-end exhausts). I'm pretty sure that Wiseguy actually opens the hood in his video, but I'm guessing he went with the Sacrilege Hood. Maybe this one I picked is glitched? At least we can remove it by ramming the car lol.

Rolled steel was my second choice. I spent like 20 minutes deciding between the two. Ended up choosing Silver. You should use a ice white pearl on the rolled steel if you really want to copy Eleanor.

 

This Silver/Ice White pearl combo at night.

Man im a disappointed with ellie, its got zero low end torque, its all mid range. Plus the way i drive involves alot of braking and this car has no punch getting out of the corners and since clutch kick doesnt work i just cant stand it. Its a shame too, the cars design is amazing

I used rolled steel with a frost white pearl. Close enough, at least until someone does a proper hex in the request thread.

 

As I feared, the black stripe livery bleeds with a pearlescent and looks like crap.

 

Good news, it seems theyve changed how metallic paints work. I was able to go back in after leaving LSC and change the pearl without repainting it. Used to only be able to do that with crew colors.

Wish it was a bit more powerful on the straights, handling-wise its not that great.

It looks good, will probably get one at some point, just because its a classy vehicle.

Holy sh*t, this thing is so slow I might fall asleep if I ever drove it to Sandy Shores.

 

I am sticking to my Rapid GT Classic since it looks better, sounds better, handles better, and actually has a good performance to justify the high price tag.

Tried it out in a created race. It's always nice to try before you buy and in this case it's absolutely mandatory to do some test driving, eventhough it's a stock version.

I'm even less thrilled to buy one now. Not even as a garage filler.....

 

Shame how R* always finds a way to f*ck sh*t up.

My 3(so far) I plan on buying AT LEAST 7 more. Been wanting this car since the first DLC. It is my *Holy Grail* car.

If you like it then buy it.

If you don't, don't buy it.

I did buy ten of these btw. Wasn't kidding about that.

Are you going to post the pictures of all 10 after you take them to lsc?
Sure but it might take a couple weeks because I am broke af now lol

Tell you what, ever see me on, join my lobby.

 

Chances are I'm by myself or with people, just message me and I'll give you high-end I/E cars.

 

I've piled them before with groups of people, pretty funny to see a bunch of them all together when it's clockwork, looks like a car meet/show.

^ I can vouch for Kush, he's helped out certain people before with giving out high end I/E cars and it worked like a charm. Pretty neat that Rockstar added the ability to "steal" them lol.

I'm upset. This is a car that doesn't attract me that much, yet i need to find a color that looks good so i can settle on something else ...

Happy to finally recreate my all time favorite movie car. Now I just have to wait for the GTX, the chargers are already built.

Just noticed that when lowering the cars suspension, the wheels will tilt a bit. Akin to stancing, just not as much. Neat!

Is it just me or do the tires actually get wider with custom rims?
