1963 Gavril Bluebuck

Glad to see it become real and not this a concept.

 

lowrider 200bx incoming

 

i hope you will be able to 3 wheel with the hydraulics

 

i hope you will be able to 1 wheel.

 

I hope you will be able to do slap wheelies

 

I love how over the past few days a bunch of members who have no clue what they’re talking about have been taking credit for ideas that the Dev team most likely came up with themselves, it’s real funny especially seeing as said members have little to no skill in the modding scene save for automation mods.

 

the blog post is out


edit: i just realized that this is not update speculation and i am missing out on all those virtual internet points

 

I almost had a heart attack of happiness (if that's even possible)

wait yeah it is but I have potato WIFI so it'll be a while

 

Just saw the blog, wow, this is one heck of an update!

 

My guess on the Gavril fullsize model structure:

- Base model - unreleased vehicle, slotting below the base Bubu and aimed towards fleet customers. No window chrome, grille surrounding chrome, C-pillar chrome bar, etc. Like the real-life Chevy Biscayne or Ford 300.

- Bluebuck - midrange model. Like the RL Chevy Bel Air or Ford Galaxie.

- Bluebuck Marshal - premium model, kinda like the real-life Chevy Impala or Ford Galaxie 500.

- Bluebuck Sport - a lower-end performance model, aimed towards those who want a fast, but not necessarily luxurious car (Impala SS?)

- Bluebuck Roadsport - also sporty, but with a more premium image, aimed at the customer who wants the fanciest Bluebuck out there. Kinda like a Ford Galaxie 500 XL.

 

Question: Why does the 353 V8 4-door hardtop show a 0-60mph time of 8.1s, but the 423 V8 4-door hardtop with the same transmission show a 0-60mph time of 9.2s?

 

Well, that makes all the sense in the world. I would think the same issue should present itself in other cars, too, then, right? But the choptop '53 Burnside vs. the stock version doesn't have that issue. I guess it's at a weird intersection of traction versus power that's not always present in other cars.

 

Idk if it's just me but it seems like the devs took inspiration from my post from the Wheel & Tire Suggestion Thread and implemented these style of classic steel wheels in game. Great job devs!

 

I'll probably frame this picture.

 

I hope someone picks up that phone 'cause I sure did call it.

 

What are the new hubcaps and wheels called ? Also were are the preformence specs for the wiki

“The Horrible” version was my suggestion, along with the hubcaps

 

Everyone else is claiming things, so...

The steering wheel was my idea. I said we need a steering wheel on the base model. I didn't think they would do that, but they did. You're all welcome for me giving the devs the suggestion.

 

That was a great suggestion, I'm glad they decided to include it!

 

Actually, I posted pictures of a 65 impala on the forums at one point, so the Bluebuck was pretty much my idea.
