    Woah, how have I never seen the model on the right there? That looks amazing.
    It's almost like a crossbreed between a GTR and a 240z or something along those lines.

    Well now, looking at it from the front reminds me of an old Capri or something.

    Additionally, I see the Barstow in it a little... I must be looking too deeply into this

    You mean best wheel fitment?
    There is nothing better than factory, other than OEM.

    Well there is tons of "space" in the rear and the front, you could fit wider wheels on it for a meatier look and better grip.

    Holy crap. This car is the most amazing thing to drive in game, and the engine seems to have perfect power delivery at all RPMs, not to mention the awesome handling. In utah I 4 wheel drifted through an entire long corner in this thing, so fun!

    Not to mention heel and toe is extremely easy in this, especially with the 4 speed transmission. I love it.

    My feelings exactly, as Its impossible to describe how good this car is, heck its the first car to make me start uncontrollably laughing while pushing it to the limit. Thank you devs, thank you so darn much, this surpassed any of my expectations. I swear this car was made for the road that's high up on the canyon wall in Utah
    If I can ever learn how to jbeam, I will put a strait six in this, simply so I can create an appropriate Hakosuka GTR sound for it. This car is incredible.

    Why? Is it because it is slow?

    But it loves you...

    If you think it's boring, try the DOHC race engine. Then, drive it to the store and buy some patience.

    I have the same problem with the Miramar that many people have with (insert Undertale character here): I want one IRL but it isn't real.

    I think this is my favorite car in the game. Love the way it crashes. This is the opposite of boring. To me.

    Oh yeah, we haven't implemented a way to save/load multiple vehicle colors yet. That's why we don't have two tone paintjobs, or other colorable stuff.

    I honestly feel like it's unstable and is hard to even drive in a straight line and the redline is too late but it is kinda fun to drive, but in terms of best handling I'd say it would probably be the factory barstow configs the rest are a bit too powerful and don't corner as well as I'd like. what do you mean 4 wheel drifting? do you mean 4 wheel drive drifting? if so I thought it was rear wheel drive.

    I Understand what you mean by unstable, its pretty short wheelbase so that's a bit of a given (especially with the race version) assuming you are just mashing the throttle. When I first started driving the Miramar it felt uncontrollable, until I realized I was being too harsh on it, trying to throw it around like its an AWD car or a car with a much longer wheelbase. Try driving around with smooth gain and release of throttle input, as well as smooth steering, and build your way up to hoonganism. That being said this car can be hard to control with keyboard, and even with a controller as you have to be pretty smooth with this car. The Miramar is Godlike with a wheel, and once you get into its groove, its honestly has intoxicating fun levels of good. It may not be the fastest car in the game but it sure is fun to drive once you learn its quirks.
    The Barstow is easy to drive with keyboard or controller as it never really has enough grip to bite at you, and can be shoved around corners with excessive throttle, although I wouldn't call it a handling machine with a wheel.

    As for what @Slammington meant by "4 wheel drifting" he means breaking grip on all 4 tires and sliding sideways, not just a power over to drift so essentially sliding the whole car and not just the rear. The Miramar excels at this, especially considering its RWD.

    Also not the correct place to be discussing any of this, I know, but the new force feedback is amazing, brings a whole new experience/level of control to the game. Again, thank you!.

    the best thing to do is to wait plus we just got an etk a couple of updates ago.

    has ther been any ideas on a rusty variant?

    Jesus christ man, how old are you? You have got to understand that this is a SMALL development team developing a game in BETA who are working as hard as they can to release the latest updates. Try to appreciate that.

    Either grow up and act your age and be patient like the rest of us or f*ck off and play minecraft like a good 2 year old.

    Well, you guys over at BeamNG did a FABULOUS job on the Miramar. Great drift car, easily can beat just about anything on the game in a racetrack scenario(except for the SBR4s/faster ETKs/'88 Pessima speed versions/just about every car above Performance Class 7). But considering that this car is an over-50-year-old design, with only about 150 hp, the Miramar punches well above its weight.
