Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown (2024)
I wonder if this is some sort of tie in with the first ever Test Drive all the way back in 1987. The only thing is that it was a 911 Turbo.

Would be a fun easter egg if you own all the cars from the original Test Drive you get an achievement.

Half-Life: Alyx (2020)
Honestly this is making me wish Valve made a Soviet driving game. Considering how well they represent soviet era cars.

I think it's referencing how a lot of Russian car companies names came from where they were built. It would be like Ford being called Dearborn Automotive Plant (DAP for short) or Chevrolet being called Flint Automotive Plant (you can guess). A neat little detail.

Saints Row (2022)
it looks like there is a slight improvement in vehicle models atleast. It always seemed like the vehicle models weren't that great almost like they had a 3d animated cartoon movie look to them. Definitely Rockstar was alot better in that aspect especially when GTA IV came out.

Makes sense for a game set in a Cuban like island to have Russian cars. I wonder if this game would have a Fiat 126p like vehicle in it. that's a fairly common vehicle you would see there as it was a car from an ex soviet country.
Buick LeSabre

BeamNG.drive (2013)
Definitely seems like a mixture of the 80's GM H bodies, C bodies and the E bodies (especially the face lift headlights).

It's mostly H body like the Oldsmobile 88 and Buick Le Sabre.

You can tell the vehicle models are made by someone who isn't a car person. the proportions seem like something I would have drawn when I was 8 years old.

I wonder why the devs made the Hopper an Ibishu because Ibishu is a Japanese car maker, but Jeep is American.

Same with the Pigeon because it's an UK car, but it's an Ibishu.
Why???

It's like a combination of the Mitsubishi Jeep J-series and J70 Land Cruiser (maybe a bit of Mahindra for good measure). it wasn't too rare for Jeeps to be built in Asian countries under licence and then that company was free to modify that vehicle into its own model after that licence was lapsed.

Here's a new teaser of the Soliad Wendover. seems to be a combination of vehicles from the FWD GM H Body platform. Seems close to the Oldsmobile 88 Coupe in design. twitter.com/beamng/status/1354102954731696128

The front end does look similar to the 2000s GMC Yukon. But like most BeamNG vehicles they are a combination of design stereotypes of the time and vehicle type.Instead of "Make a Skyline, Except it's not a Skyline, whoa!".

Forza Horizon 4 (2018)
I dislike the fact a good chunk of newer vehicles that have been added are locked behind timed exclusive challenges, It completely alienate players who would get into the game at a later date like myself.
I still haven't gotten into FH4 and this is a HUGE turnoff for me.

Sounds like a good idea but it isn't great for future game preservation. They better add most of these cars to the Autoshow at a later date.
Buick Century

Far Cry 6 (2021)
I would say that car would be closer to a mid 50's Buick. Especially according to the model that the Villan's son was assembling and a later shot of the car burning.
Dodge Omni

Cyberpunk 2077 (2020)
Could be inspired by the FSO Polonez. Well, it would make sense if you think about the fact CDPR is a polish company. And the design does have some cues that point to that car.
Toyota Crown

Ryū ga Gotoku Zero: Chikai No Basho (2015)
It would make more sense if it was an Eighth generation (S130) Crown or Nissan Cedric/ Gloria Y31 as that would fit the period as they would be brand new models. but there are some period inaccuracies that I found in this game, For example, some of the real-life drinks you can buy in the in game stores have modern packaging designs.

So wait, if Mitsubishi pulled their licensing, then wouldn't this car not just be unplayable, it wouldn't appear at all? Or would they still let them keep it in as an undriveable traffic car? I thought Mitsubishi had pulled their licensing from the beginning of development and the secret only just came out. But based on this, it looks like they had originally licensed a few cars, Playground had started putting them in the game, and then at the 11th hour they pulled the license. So does this mean that the game developers have to pull all the Mitsubishis that they have put in the game already, including in cutscenes and the background?

I think it could be Mitsubishi wanting to put one of their new Crossovers in the game but Forza said no, so Mitsubishi revoked their licence.

I'm laughing up a storm here. Look at a 1970 Ford Ranchero, then a 1970 Chevy El Camino. Then take a quick look at this. No way this is from the golden era of muscle cars.

This reeks so much of late 2000's engineering it's pitiful.

I mean... I'd still drive it, that truck-bed is damn sexy on a Dodge Challenger...

could of been because the original model might of used the design of the older muscle car but the decided to change it around due to lack of variety but theyforgot to change the Description.

Probably a better idea to change it to a playable and downloadable vehicle.

Mitsubishi Starion

Forza Motorsport 4 (2011)
This would be a nice addition to Forza Motorsport 7, This and the FTO oh and a 8th gen Galant VR4. I mean Gran Turismo 4,5,6 had the Legnum so why not Forza expecialy with the recent addition of cars that were in GT (R31 for example)
Ford Falcon

Forza Horizon 3 (2016)
They only made 4 of GTHO Falcons, one road car in Calypso Green. Yup I guess this is the closest we would ever get to experience this ultra rare car.


It would of been hilarious if the devs made this a Barn find car.

Yup it just needs the E49 Valiant Charger,the LJ GTR XU-1 Holden Torana and maybe a few Brock Commodores thrown in for good measure.

finally a torana in Forza too bad its not a GTR- XU1 but then that would be a nice addition in the future.can't wait to see more strayan classics in the future fingers crossed the next one is a valiant charger e49
De Soto Firedome

BeamNG.drive (2013)
I remembered Gabester stating "Your basic 1953 American near-luxury sedan. A bit like a DeSoto Firedome" so I guess that's what it is by the looks of it momentcar.com/images/desoto-firedome-1953-1.jpg.
Honda Accord

BeamNG.drive (2013)
I think its more on the lines of being a 1989 Mazda 626. momentcar.com/images/mazda-626-1989-6.jpg

We have to wait for an in game screenshot to find out.



I find this will make sense to me since the 1998 pessima is based on the Mazda 626 unless gabester thought of mixing it up a bit.

I somehow thought it was suppose to be a Barracuda as I thought it was meant to fit the pony car class and before that I thought it was a Mustang gosh I'm dumb oh by the way it is in game now according to a screenshot so this is coming after the SBR4.

Car Mechanic Simulator 2015 (2015)
The cheapest car at the auction house and the cheapest car in game I think it was the successor to the fiat 500 or had parts from it. The first car average poles could afford means alot to them like a cult car.
