Except it's already been identified as a Lumina...

Yeah, I took those ones.
If the car is to be added to the list it should be given the surname of "6.3 V8 Coupe (Custom)" to keep it in line with the others.

There's also a custom version of the XLR-based convertible, which has a modded hood, custom rims and it's topless. Much like the other custom cars this is also unlockable via Street Upgrade (which only works for cars you own).

Problem is the contributor hasn't been active recently. Don't know anyone else who has the game, and I own the PS2 version.

In the case of unobtanium like other vehicles' street upgrades, these can only be done by vehicles owned by the player. It won't work with cars jacked from the street.

Also, they cost $8,000 apiece.

This proves my point that this is not a Mega Cruiser. Only the front is based on one and I think Luxoflux based it on a H1.

More specifically, this IS a Hummer H1 wagon. Why?
It's sold here unlike the Mega Cruiser (Japan-only for the latter)
It's somewhat common, unlike the limited-production MC.
And 3, H1 is only produced in LHD whilst the MegaCruiser is RHD.

It's clearly meant to be a Hummer H1.

This was published by Activision in 2005. The rules were probably different back then, and Activision definitely had the money to contest that kind of requirements.

Actually exist others games do the same, GTA 5 with various cars similar to real ones.

Yea, but unfortunately Activision didn't have the money to release a functional game like this one. They leadfooted Luxoflux to rush the game just to release it prior to Christmas 2005.

When the actual game was on shelves, critics loved the game but actual players got a buggy release what was never meant to be fixed. Remember this was the mid-2000s where patches and updates were in their infancy (at least in consoles iirc), or not at all.

Come to think of it I still own the PS2 version and it had its own flaws. Like some cars not spawning in traffic due to that version's hardware limits.

I'll hand it to Luxoflux for making a really realistic Manhattan based on the one where the new World Trade tower was under construction. And the variety of vehicles. And its sheer environmental destruction of which I still get a kick out of.

Point is, it's just a game with good potential, just not what Activision had endeared. The bugs and issues that plagued this game has ruined this franchise, which is exactly why it lived on as Sleeping Dogs (and even then whatever future that game had was lost).

For what it's worth, it's a great game on paper..... Until you realize it's a broken minefield of glitches and myriad issues. Why? Because the game was rushed prior to Christmas 2005, and Activision didn't give Luxoflux any time to work on polishing the game. They aren't optimized as well, sadly.

It's like as if half of the game budget went to graphics and the whole destructibility.

For example, the PS2 version isn't bad by all means and it occasionally crashes. Xbox version is fine but is nigh impossible to complete due to a broken action in a late mission, PC, while better, is rough.

FYI, the game's a recreation of the entirety of Manhattan, not just South Manhattan, aka the Financial District.
