The Honda Civic Type R NGTC for RaceRoom
It's a car for an event but having a BTCC car in game would have been nice. Even comparing how they feel compared to TCR.

Toyota, Subaru, Hyundai, and others in The Crew 2


According to early concept arts, Toyota, Subaru, Hyundai, and others were originally going to appear in The Crew 2, but sadly, Toyota was cut because the company decided to disallow non-Japanese video game developers from featuring its road cars in late 2017. Subaru and Hyundai were also cut due to licensing issues.

It would have been awesome to see Toyota cars in The Crew 2, but this didn't happen. The reason why Toyota wasn't added to The Crew 2 via update, even after it decided to allow non-Japanese video game developers to feature its road cars in late 2019, is that Ubisoft and Ivory Tower decided to save Toyota cars like a Toyota Supra A80 and other certain vehicles like a Honda NSX NA1 when they discovered that their several ideas for changes in progession structure in the then-cancelled Motorcamp DLC didn't work with The Crew 2's game engine and reworked this cancelled DLC into a separate game from The Crew 2. Yep, Ubisoft and Ivory Tower didn't want to ruin the surprise.

UPDATED: The reason why I edited it is that I was wrong about the absence of Toyota in The Crew 2. Yep, the small playerbase is really not the reason for it.

N64 Moo Moo Farm's reappearance in Mario Kart World

Source

Yep, N64 Moo Moo Farm didn't return since Mario Kart DS. It would have been awesome for this track to reappear in Mario Kart World since Cow is a new playable character. Sadly, N64 Moo Moo Farm was replaced by Wii Moo Moo Meadows. Wii Moo Moo Meadows wasn't supposed to reappear in Mario Kart World since it already reappeared in the previous console Mario Kart game, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, which can be played on the Nintendo Switch 2.

The Maybach in Midnight Club 3 Dub Edition.

So this was a car that was meant to be in the game at one point, but was cut sometime before release for some reason. GrandTheftAero made a video about this game, and in that video, he plays some audio from a former Rockstar dev talking about the car; unfortunately, he doesn't know why it was cut, but he did mention it was being worked on at one point. Sadly, about the only thing that remains of the car in the final is some mentions in the game files and the car's wheels, which can be accessed through hacking.

However, just last week, an alpha build of this game was found, and in it was the aforementioned Maybach, which had previously never been seen in this game until then. The car is not finished; namely, vinyls are not mapped properly, LOD's aren't right, and there's probably more I am not aware of, but the car looks to be most of the way there. It's a pity it never made it to the final game because it looks great and fits in with the rest of the game's car list remarkably well. Fortunately, modding in MC3 is a thing, and although it is in its infancy, it should only be a matter of time before someone fixes this thing up and ports it to the final game. I am hoping someone will eventually figure out how to add cars to the game instead of replacing them, because this Maybach is begging for it!

The Ferrari 512TR and the beta version "White Charisma" from Tokyo Xtreme Racer 2.

The "White Charisma" we know today was a rival who drove a white FD3S.

However, recent data mining of TXR2 demos by the TXR community suggests that he was a rival driving a Type-512 (Ferrari 512TR), which was cut content. And, as his nickname suggests, his 512TR is white.

Needless to say, this is a reference to the white Testarossa driven by Ishida in Wangan Midnight, and along with Unknown (Devil Z) and ZERO (Blackbird), suggests that they were homages to key characters that appeared in the early story of Wangan Midnight.

Of course, this choice carried significant risk, and one can certainly understand why they chose not to take it. It's Ferarri.
Infringing on their licensing, which is among the most strict in the world regarding brand image, is risky, and for titles that require legitimate licenses, such as TXR3 and TXR25, the costs required for their licensing agreements are something a small company like Genki could never afford.

In other words, if they had probably made White Charisma's car a 512TR, he would likely have disappeared from the series for many years, just like Zero. From a long-term perspective, the choice they actually made was far more correct.

But even so, I would have liked to see an iconic boss based on Devil Z, Blackbird, and Ishida.
