We have the Kubelwagon ans Schiwm (sp??) so why can't we have the WWII equivelant of them ie. Jeep and the like...

And also cop cars +10,000

Nobody wanted the kubel or shimm to begin with... why waste "6 months" modeling more slow old piles of crap??

I would really love to have the Hammerhead Eagle i Thrust from Top Gear as a premium.






Imagine a Spec race on the ring with 16 of these. :sly:

lol, I can see it now, an online race full of Clarkson type people purposely going to fast on turns to see if anyone can roll it online even though the game tries to prevent that. If they add the Reliant Robin they lso have to add the Reliant Regal Supervan III (Mr Beans Nemesis)

The Volkswagens are also VWII cars.

Well, though I am a big fan of VWs new and old, I must admit that those two cars are not the first two cars I would choose to put in a game. But they are not "slow old piles of crap". They are nice classic cars, and a nice car doesn't have to be fast to be enjoyable. After all, GT is not Need for Speed, it's The Real Driving Simulator. Slow driving is also driving:)

Thats a Land rover, SAS British not american :crazy: in desert camoflage.

Sorry - got the name wrong, I should have checked - that's the car I want in - the British desert SAS Land Rover, not a "Willies" but hey - I'd be happy with a Willies too. I have a great Tamiya model kit of the pink Land Rover somewhere in the loft.

To the guy who said the Kubelwagen is crap try upgrading it and then it is a reasonable laugh. I golded the Hot Hatch Seasonal in it a few months ago.

The Schwimwagen (sp) can pull wheelies with the right upgrades and tuning.
 
Why do we have a car game without the worlds fastest car?

Thrust SSC please :sly:

Would be great fun on autumn ring mini!
 
Monster trucks like Big Foot and Grave digger so I can crush X1s

I agree it would be fun, but its totally not realistic for it to ever happen.

That has never stopped PD before:
X2010/2011
Nike One
Hundreds (probably) of concept cars
Several one-off rarities all on the field at once
Etc.

Personally I'd like to see more road cars and classic race cars (My number 1 dream car is a Group A KPGC10 race car... Number 2 is a TRD N2 Levin), but one novelty DLC pack would be acceptable. Something like a Willies Jeep, an RC car, the JCB Dieselmax... Things like that. I do wonder why PD haven't modelled Bonneville and some land speed record cars, given that they seem to be as much about education as they are about driving (museum cards, blurb on every single car). That would be pretty awesome, but only if they got the sound and sensation of speed right. Then again this isn't a wishlist thread...

an RC car

Could you imagine a rc car at the ring, but on the same note it would get old quick, unless the acted like real rc cars.

Ford Nucleon anyone ?
 
Or maybe with every car you can RM, you can also perfrom an FM - Flight Modification?

But still, would that not be a blast. Just think to, fully tuned it would do wheelies down the track.
 
I wouldn't mind the Nike One to make a return, and gimme a Hummer. The ones under GM, not AM general.
The Ford SVT raptor would be fun.
Jeep.
SSC Ultimate Aero
Koeniggsegg CCX
Shifter Cart.

I can't tell which end is the front and which is the back? :odd:

And like the guy above me said, I need a hummer so I can paint and make a desert storm humvee, HOORAH!!

yeah, you gotta have a few cars that look good with the military DLC paint chips. It's 4wd too, so that would be my new rally car. I own an '05 H2 in real life, so it would be a cool novelty to race my real life car.:D

i wasn't saying I wouldn't have fun. lol. We need a few goofy cars like that though. Maybe a seasonal special event. 12 car reliant race on Top Gear
 
What about the peel p50, I think the spelling is right.

I forgot about that car. I would still love to see an Isetta myself. It would just be a fun car.

Maybe we can even have some stretch limos. Like this one

Agree with that, been saying this for years...so many gamers have such a blinkered "SUPERCARS RULE OK, EVERYTHING BELOW 100BHP STOCK SUCKS" mentality...I love that you can tune a Kubelwagen and win races with it! It's decently quick too with just 650kg once lightened. I have all the air-cooled VWs, a 2CV, a few Honda Kei cars (the ones that come with 30bhp stock:yuck:) and the Mazda Carol...all of which have a slew of race wins to their names.

Regarding unconventional cars, no emergency vehicles/trucks whatever, just more everday cars (say, more European 80s cars such as Vauxhall Nova, Ford Escort etc) as they add such variety and are great foer pulling off surprise wins.

Hell, I'd like to see Eastern European junk in GT for this reason! They're "unconventional cars", not hearses etc.
