Cars The Need For Speed

[garyjpaterson]

Multipla, Aztek, PT Cruiser, Gremlin? All of the above please.

 

[Michael Hornbuckle]

Damn, was so looking forward to this:

and this:

Guess we will just have to settle for a Vette

 

[RasmusP]

I would love a Brabus smart, tuned with a big turbo. Would be fun for club races

 

[Michael Hornbuckle]

It's already out there.

Sorry for off topic.

Michael, it seems the US only got the less interesting version of that little Renault. The mid-engine Renault 5 Turbo (a Gr.B homologation car), or the later Gr. B 350hp R5 Maxi Turbo surely aren't Yugo or Chevette tier .

 

[Kasti]

I want a Fiat Multipla

edit: aahh ninja'd by @unseen

oh we got a contest:
america´s most ugly car vs europe´s most ugly car

Yeah but the multipla is at least functional especially for those with wheelchair based injuries. Aztec is just ugly with nothing to show for it apart from a popular drug dealer.

Guys, let's keep this on-topic please.

The almighty Multipla awaits. We shall enjoy the Testarossa only until finer things are made.

The Porsche 911 in the original Need For Speed - was it a 4 speed manual transmission?

 

[AlleyViper]

IIRC it was a manual 6 on the NA 993 Carrera.
I guess the only one with a 4 speed manual would be the older 75-89' 930 Turbo (except for the 89' 5-speed update).

Edit: You can confirm the 6-speed in this clip.

 

[A3DR]

Yep it's 6-speed

 

[aphidgod]

Compared to the other 4 cars, it's no speed.

 

[A3DR]

Compared to the other 4 cars, it's no speed.

Yeah I guess they had to fit a Porsche somewhere, and a Turbo would move it to another category leaving the C Class with only two cars, so the Carrera is the slowest of them all.

 

[aphidgod]

Yes, I can see how they had to work to balance 3 classes with 8 cars.

 

[A3DR]

Let's get back on track!, very early but proportions are looking good

Hey OMG! what's going on with YOUR Ferrari?

 

[stingray_SIX_TWO]

Hmmm could have seen that coming .

My Ferrari has a fixed dashboard as per your observations plus a nice interior floor.

Seriously, the LMP1 project just picked up a lot of pace and I'm looking to put that on track to the point where we can release an early version to potentially coincide with the real car being built. That whole open source idea with the unprecedented amount of data available just put the Ferrari on the back-burner. However, as some flight sim guys will tell you I do not abandon projects or leave them for dead.

That photo-matching works extremely well in that shot by the way.

 

[stingray_SIX_TWO]

By the way I do have access to a 512TR during the next couple of days which sits in a collection in my area and could take whatever photos you need (exterior only).
