@ Black Bart :
You have a completely wrong impression of me. I am a very self-assertive, strong-willed person. I am not an infantile who freaks out if I don't have things my way, but I am very strongly convinced about game vehicles' identify and I am also courteous enough to admit if I made a misjudgement, like with the Burly Studmobile in Stunt Racer 64, which I thought was a 1960 Oldsmobile Dynamic 88, but turned out to be a 1959 Buick LeSabre.

First off, I said nothing at all about politics or voting. Second, what I said was that you constantly debate what the car looks like until it is what make/model you think it is. Third, enough of the self-pity.


O dear, you got that wrong... I don't suffer from self-pity, I suffer from game cars being wrongly filed... I actually feel quite good about myself.
I think we need an image of the front AND the rear of a game cars (from a 30* angle) to make identification less puzzling.

I'm going with Sunfire, it's pretty obvious actually.


May I remind you that IGCD is a database, not a political party. You initially saw a C-Klasse in this car.
I get a little desperate at how badly IGCD members often examine game cars and jump to conclusions easily, which results in game cars being filed under wrong names.

Could it be that the rear texture is taken directly from a photograph of the Sunfire?


Here we go again:
This game car has a straight line between the rearlights (C-Klasse), the Sunfire has a curved line.
This game car's rearlights are straight at the top (C-Klasse), the Sunfire's rearlights are curving.
This game car has a smiling rear bumper (C-Klasse), the Sunfire has a straight rear bumper.

Is IGCD a database or a policital party...???
This has nothing to do with other members' opinion, it's all about filing game cars under the right name. To accomplish that, we scrutinize, but we don't vote.
To be honest it makes me a bit desperate to see game cars being filed under wrong names.

@ Tuppence870 :
1. If both headlights are in the centre, it can't be a Mercury Eight.
2. It is my personal opinion that your drawings don't clear things up. It would be better if someone provided a picture of the front of the MH and a picture of the rear... that would make identification a lot easier and save you a lot of work.
3. Like I said before, the front of the MH is a riddle to me, in all the rest of the car I see a Tucker. I still think one dot is the right headlight, the other is the center of the nose, and the left headlight is missing.

@ PikesPeak : Why should I follow the herd and agree on Mercury Eight if I see a Tucker in this MH...?

@ ItsaUserName : I CERTAINLY DON'T need a lesson in manners... who do you think you are...?!!! We are here on IGCD to identify vehicles, and not to insult on eachother! I admit I get impatient if vehicles stay "unknown" for too long, but I am always correct and very clear in my explanations and put a lot of energy in trying to identify game vehicles... mind you that quite a few cars have been identified thanks to my efforts!

GM LeSabre

Stunt Racer 64 (2000)
The whole body contour and design details of the MH indicate a Tucker... it's just the front of this MH that I cannot figure out... it's a mess, the left headlight is missing. What's left are this stupid round thing in the center of the nose (what the **** is it, anyway...?) and the right headlight, but it's the Tucker's front alright.

1. This MH is a Tucker. Period.
2. This MH is ugly, because it is a Tucker. Period.
3. A Mercury Eight is beautiful. Period.
4. This MH is not a Mercury Eight. Period.

It's actually quite simple.

Now admin please correct this MH's identify.

Your only reason for this being a Tucker was the headlight configuration, .


That is absolutely not true... the opposite is true. I noticed that everything about this game car is a Tucker Torpedo, but I was in doubt about the strange front styling, and I assumed the left headlight is missing. All game cars are very messy in this game.
This game car is clearly a 1948 Tucker,.. the left headlight is missing, the other two dots are the right headlight and the tip of the nose.
The way you make all these drawings do not clear up things, but make it more confusing.
Buick LeSabre

More likely a '59 LeSabre due to the angles of the headlights and the wings of the original car add to the game car's rear wing.


I think you're right my-img.jamespot.com/userdata/spot/thumb/ac/ff/69241/1287404002.http I didn't know the 1959 LeSabre yet. The angle of the headlights are typical LeSabre indeed. Furthermore, the LeSabre and the Dynamic 88 have a lot in common.

Then why didn't you just agree with Maltravers and fordcortina83?


I didn't know this car, so I had to use their suggestion to search for a picture to be able to verify and it turned out it is the one.
I always search through dozens of pictures before I post a comment. And I always include a picture in my comments, to make everything clear, so you don't have to guess or wonder... that's the way I scrutenize car models.

Dude, there is not a single element of the Tucker Torpedo in this car. The only element you described is not a match (the Midnight Hauler clearly has 2 glowing lights in the centre of the front, while the Tucker has only 1 in the centre and more at the edges).


Your comments are making less sense more and more. You might get stuck if you don't watch out. I don't mean to be rude, but I think it's time for you to really, really scrutenize car models most particularly... take your time for it!
And please don't call me dude... that makes you sound very silly!

@ Tuppence870 :
Trust me, this is nothing personal, but I've seen you post comments - like this one - that I absolutely cannot follow. I almost get the feeling you are deliberately searching for car pictures that aren't the game car.
Take this one... I really, really don't understand why you don't see that this game car is a C-Klasse and not a Sunfire.
Please take another close look at every aspect of the rear styling of this game car and compare it with the picture I posted.

I'd go with the Sunfire.


Then you've made a mistake. It's a C-Klasse.
The top of the rearlights is straight, the line that connects them is straight... on the Sunfire both rearlights and connection are curvy.
The "smile" underneath the rearlights is C-Klasse... the Sunfire doesn't have it.
This really is a Mercedes C-Klasse, I don't understand why you don't see it... take a good look again.

I certainly do, but it must be more than clear that this game car looks nothing like a Fiesta!!! I think it's silly to post a photo of a Fiesta under this game car. I myself am humble enough to admit my own missteps, like when I overlook some vital information that results in posting a stupid comment containing a car that cannot be the game car.

Yeah, that's the kind of problem you can run into with unplayable cars... I came from Nova, via Commodore and Taunus to Peugeot 403, and I still think - considering body contour and rear lights - that it's meant to be that one.
Does anyone have a suggestion...? There aren't many cars with this kind of rearlight units.

I don't think it's a Ferrari. If anything, I'd say this was a stylized '05 Ford Mustang.


No, the 2005 Mustang is too straight, it doesn't have this front and rear curving and has a different cabin and roofline.
I wish the moderators would say something sensible about these 2 cars (the red one is the same). I don't see many moderators' comments on the site nowadays...

I'm not sure. It's difficult to see if the car has concealed headlights or not, but the profile looks a lot like a Ferrari.


The 599's headlights go with the flow of the body contour, all these game cars are very stylistic, and the light reflects on the wheel arches... I've compared this game car with all Ferrari models, and I think (as with the red one) that this car is closest to a 599.

Like I said, all cars in this game are very stylistic and clean, which makes them hard to identify. I have scrutenized all Ferrari models (inicluding the F430) and I thought the 599 is the closest to this game car.

So the car is now a VW Polo, great. Only it says V (the current one) while it should be a III.


Yeah, I made a slight mistake... the one I found is the 2008 facelifted Polo IV.
Since the car is damaged, it's hard to tell whether it's the III or the V.
Looking at the headlights and body contour, I'd say V, but I'm not sure.

It seems to have concealed headlights indeed, but I think that's a result of the tight and clean style of the game. I too think the front looks a bit like a C3.
But I think these aspects make it a 599:
--- body contour (less "curvy" than the C3)
--- extra side-window (at the c-post)
--- side-trim

It may sound stubborn and hard-headed, but I still think the gamemakers had the Toyota TF105 in mind when they created this very stylistic race car.
Apart from that, if this car is an IRL car after all, it would be more correct to file it as "IRL Race Car".
