    If there is a V8 swap, it would hopefully be from the Moonhawk. It would be era-accurate and make sense as Soliad is a division of Bruckell.

    i doubt it would have a longitudinal V8 conversion, as at that point you need a new engine, gearbox, rear axle (and all its associated mounting points), which pretty much requires a whole new floorpan, at which point you may as well put in a full body rollcage, redo the interior and front suspension, and have a gen 3 stock car.
    And to be honest, I can't see them using a moonhawk v8 until they've updated the model as it's near one of the worst in the game.

    something else to talk about was those "S2R" adaptive suspension parts for the SBR. could we be getting a sort of GT3-RS inspired version?

    They wouldn't do that to us after seven years

    I mean... yeah? That's normally how engine conversions work.


    But you're right, when I made that idea I didn't think about all the extra components that would be needed. I guess it would be a lot of unnecessary effort that the developers probably aren't going to do (with good reason).

    I think that would be quite funny. I mentioned this before, and it would be great (in my opinion) if the developers pranked the community by releasing a fake update.

    If they actually did it it would not be a "prank" anymore as it is a thing flying around this thread

    GM H Bodies (the closest vehicles to the Wendover) exclusively had V6 engines ranging from 3.0 to 3.8 litres of displacement and 4 speed automatic transmissions.
    The C body was just a more luxurious H body and the Cadillacs had 4.3 to 4.9 transverse V8s so would make sense for a v8 luxury variant with a different shaped body and luxury interior and exterior touches.

    Wow, they both look like cheap pieces of junk... let's hope there's some good options to deck 'em out with ;)

    If that's the case, we are on red alert. Update likely in next 48 hours

    The Le Gran looks to be a facelift model. most likely from 1989 to 1996.
