For a long time there's been a dispute as to whether this car is the Celeste (Mercedes) or the Trautenberg (Duesenberg). I still strongly lean towards this being the Mercedes, because the body shape resembles it. I think much of the confusion, funny enough, is coming from the car's color. In the original the Trautenberg Model J was only available in red, and the Celeste only in white (and brown, but it's impossible to find the car in that color on the road. I think that the rear of the car and its silhouette more closely matches up to the Celeste, so I am hesitant to call this car a Duesenberg, of which the Trautenberg is the in-game counterpart. | ||
This is the Ulver/Culver Airstream. In the original 2002 game it came in both two-door and four-door versions, as well as only two colors (green and yellow). | ||
The Lassiters are the ones I'm most excited for. Already this screenshot is a great sign, because in the original the Fordor version of this car came only in green and silver. The red and white paint job on this Lassie is so fresh to the eyes. | ||
First impression is that this looks more like an Indian Scout than a Chief to me. | ||
I love this car, I would say that it is my favorite so far, as well. I especially like the convertible version, the car has a very nice interior. | ||
Here's a better picture of the front of this specific model of the Buick Riviera: cdn.2kgames.com/mafiagame.com/CarCustomization.png Would someone please remove the picture of the red Lincoln Mk. III and add this instead? Thank you. | ||
For some reason, the photo I added was removed, odd. | ||
Someone should really delete the front image, we already identified that red personal luxury car as the Lincoln Mk. III. Besides, we have an image of the front of the Buick Riviera available anyway right here: www.igcd.net/vehicle.php?id=97767. Whether or not they are the same Buick, I don't know yet. | ||
I added a better picture of the car's rear. | ||
The civilian version of this car was actually identified as a 1975 Chevrolet Caprice. It looks a lot like a Gran Fury too, but it is definitely not the 1968 Ford Galaxie. | ||
That's actually an excellent guess, it really does look like a mid-late 70's Caprice, and I don't know about the body looking squarer, almost all American cars from the 60's and 70's heavily incorporate boxy design. Besides, the car in the picture is destroyed, and this is the only existing photo of the car, at least the civilian version, so I guess until we find out how the car looks like from the back and sides whilst intact, this is a '75 Caprice. | ||
Would that make it the front of this: www.igcd.net/vehicle.php?id=75071 ? Or are they different in some way? | ||
So, I saw this car in this new screenshot posted on the Mafia Game twitter page. At first sight, this looks like the police car, which we identified as the 1968 Ford Galaxie. The difference here is, this is the civilian version of the police car, and upon closer inspection I believe it looks more like a 1975 Plymouth Gran Fury, and not a '68 Ford Galaxie. Those are just my thoughts, I could use some additional comments to hep us identify the car. -- Last edit: 2016-08-20 18:41:02 | ||
Found this new image of what appeared be the same Corvette on the billboard in the German gameplay/interview video released during Gamescom. There were pictures of other cars and another yellow Corvette, too. | ||
Around 7:05 in this new Gamescom gameplay video, we can see Lincoln get into this car and we finally see its name for the first time. Turns out, this car is the Lassiter Courant. Go to this video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=13YNrjcaAOM and watch 7:05, look closely to the bottom left and you'll see 'Lassiter' pop up with 'Courant under it'. | ||
It looks as if the car has an extended wheelbase, meaning that it is possibly a Fleetwood or Series 75, even though the front looks like a 62, the body suggests this is a limo. | ||
I wonder if there will be a civilian version of this car, that would be realistic. Did anyone spot a Ford Galaxie like this one but with no police colors? Would be a shame if they did not make a civilian version, especially of such a great Ford. | ||
Huh, I thought it looked like a Japanese Kei-Van at first, but it is a Ford Econ-line. Thanks friend! -- Last edit: 2016-06-14 22:23:23 |
