    This car would be more BMW, so current lettering wouldn't be actually used. And S-Series name is used for 5-Series/E-Class sized car.

    The options of the S-Series (e.g. non-sport V12 engine version) place it closer to the 7-Series/S-Class.

    Nice, I like it.

    Very plausible - "Amato" is a relatively common italian surname, but also the past participle of "amare" = "to love" - with a pleasant ring to it.

    I still think we need a 2000s motorcoach in BeamNG. The Wentward mod is very old.

    Is it just me or would any one else like to see a newer body style of the truck that started it all?

    1982 - 1994 Hirochi Uma (Based off the 1984 Subaru GL Hatchback )

    Before the SRB4, ESRB4, and Sunburst, the Uma was Hirochi's first car to be sold in the US. Instead of being a high performance sports car, the Uma was a cheap, reliable form of transportation. Having a 1.8L OHV I4 with a optional low psi Turbo Charger, the Uma was the car that showed Americans that Japan could make cars that everyone can love.

    Trims:


    Beater: This Uma has definitely been around the block a few times before being dumped under a freeway overpass and turned into a Homeless man's bedroom. The 1.8L I4 is running on half it's cylinders and only makes 32hp. But hey, at least it still starts... kind of?

    GV: The base model Uma comes with a 1.8L OHV I4 that makes 68hp and comes with the option of a 3 speed automatic transmission or a 4 speed manual transmission. If you pay a little more, you can have the luxury of a Radio, A/C system, and floor mats!

    SR: The SR is the mid trim of the Uma and comes with the same engine and transmission options as the base model, all options the base model has as standard, fog lights, alloy wheels, a limited slip differential, and a compass mounted on the dash.

    ORV: The ORV is the 4WD version of the Uma and comes with a turbo charged 1.8L I4. However, the Turbo Charger only makes about 4 psi, so don't expect this thing to be a off road racing champ. It also has a 4 speed manual transmission, locking diffs, raised ride height, and a skidplate.

    Turbo: This is it, the highest trim level of the Uma that you could buy from the showroom. This version comes with turbo charged 1.8L OHV I4 that makes 6psi and 122hp and a 5 speed manual transmission, stiffened shocks and springs, ABS, bucket seats, mirrors and dim lights in the visors, sport compound tires, and 4 wheel disc brakes.

    Rally: This Uma has been given a Turbo Charged 2.0L DOHC I4 that makes 265hp, a 6 speed manual transmission, a AWD system. rally tuned suspension, rally lights, a striped interior, roll cage, bucket racing seats, a 5 point harness, and a place to hold your timer on the dash board.

    Street Tuned: This AWD Uma has been given a heavily modifed Turbo Charged 2.0L DOHC I4 that makes 350hp, a 6 speed manual transmission, sports coil overs and sway bars, massive brakes, a intercooler that is place on the front bumper, striped interior, roll cage, bucket racing seats, 5 point racing harness, a aftermarket GPS system, and a hydraulic handbrake.

    Exterior and Interior: (Based on the GV 4 speed manual model)

    A idea for the game should be half car trailers, like.. let's say a 88 Pessima, cut in half and made into a trailer. Example: https://imgur.com/a/RRzuKpw. (2 pics)
    Yeah I know, someone made this https://www.beamng.com/resources/d15-trailer.1587/ and one with a Pigeon. But I think we should get this for every single car. Not just a mod, but a actual part of the game. Would make builds alot more cool and interesting.

    I've been thinking of what vehicles would need to be added for career mode to have a healthy mix of vehicles, along with what could be added to existing vehicles. So imma just gonna dump some ramblings here. Most of the info I am using was found by quick google searches, so it may not be terribly accurate.

    The official vehicle library should strive for some goals:
    -Vehicles should cover a wide variety of car culture and engineering (ex: engines, suspension), including variety in the countries of origin (which is badly lacking currently)
    - I threw in some mostly badge engineered cars to get some other countries in, I figured a badge engineered car to get a new country is better than having nothing from said country. Some people are oddly patriotic with their country's car culture and having something from many countries might help the game's image.
    - I threw in some facelifts to existing cars since it's a relatively recourse efficient way to add "new" cars; may as well get the most out of cars which already exist.
    -There should be enough vehicles to cover the various game modes well (Tools to mess around with in free roam, content for different stages of career mode, sufficient overlap so that no class only has a single vehicle in it, etc...)
    - This includes options for customization, as making your car your own should be a part of career mode
    -Vehicles should not be specialized to the point where the recourses required to create it outweigh the utility having it provides.

    I left out customization parts since that would be a very long list and I am more interested in configs and full vehicles right now. (In other words, I included alternate body styles but left out specific parts)

    Judging by displacement, the Piccolina's engine's are more in line with the Beetle than the Fiat 600, and forget about the Renault 4CV, or the Subaru 360 and R-2. Considering how heavy this car is, that probably is a good thing; it was noted that this decision was done for game balance as the smaller engines were deemed under powered during development. However, under powered engines can be fun, or at least funny.

    The Fiat 600 had Spanish and Yugoslavian versions, so some badge engineering would be a quick way with historical precedent of getting otherwise obscure countries into the game.

    The Fiat 500 & 600 had some well known body variants, including vans and famously the Fiat 600 Multipla. Technically, that would be an MPV, which is highly requested. The Multipla had a taxi, which would be a funny way to get a taxi scenario on Italy. There were also some coach built golf cart like things, which would be rather pointless in game but I figured I should mention it anyway. There were some other Fiat 600 related car body styles, some of which were beautiful and some, not so much. As for the current body style, a cloth top convertible was common on these sorts of cars (not sure what this type of top is called).

    VW Beelte drag cars and hot rods, along with Fiat 600 drag cars are not rare, though I can't really imaging the Piccolina specifically with either of these. That baja chassis could accommodate a larger engine though.

    A station wagon would be a welcome addition and could feature exterior wood paneling. A coupe is also possible. The Chrysler LeBaron did have convertible versions, so that's an option. And there is the relationship between the GM X platform (Cutlass) and U platform (The dust buster minivans). So there's that option. That would essentially be a new car, so I won't bother talking about that here.

    A diesel engine has historical precedent. Some more aggressive styling for the sport version finds historical precedence in the Cutlass Eurosport.

    A lot of similar real cars had a station wagons; a muscle station wagon sounds like great fun. A sedan is an option, but there isn't much reason to include one. I certainly wouldn't mind the option to buy one as a budget muscle car then bondo over the rear doors though (I know people who have done this). A sedan would allow for a taxi and police patrol car, which would be cool. And there is always the ute option.

    I'm not sure what could fit in the Moonhawk's engine bay, but the 6.2L is not even near the top of list for factory engines of real life counterparts. And forget about comparing it to what they put in similar cars in modern drag racing vehicles, like Shawn Ellington's Murder Nova or Larry Larson's 1966 Nova. At least add a "Hemispherical combustion chamber" engine ("HEMI" is a Chrysler trademark)

    As for racing configs, a NASCAR style stock car and a dirt racing car would be appreciated.

    One of the two most important additions to the '53 Special IMO is weird engines. This would be the perfect way to bring some Cuban car culture into the game. In Cuba, thanks to the US embargo and the quality of the old US cars they had, they had plenty of cars like the Burnside but no engines for them. So they turned to anything they can get their hands on, leading to some really weird stuff. Marine engines, Soviet car and truck engines, small Japanese diesels, etc... These are just too weird and iconic to go without, and could lead to some hilarious things in career mode.

    The other important addition to this car is from American culture. Gassers and race cars made from cars like this are iconic and it really is a shame we don't have a Fabulous Hudson Hornet inspired variant yet. A large displacement i6 would be great here. As far as I can tell, the Burnside could actually use some smaller engine options in general. As for larger drag racing engine options, the same thing applies here as did the Moonhawk. A fiberglass front clip would help with the modern drag racing variant.

    As for body styles, a couple, convertible, and wagon all ought to be on the table as far as I am concerned. An Australian Ute variant is also possible (Thinking of the Australian Chevy Deluxe Ute)

    Personally I see the Bolide as a project from a fairly small company, so I'm fine with it having as few factory options as it does. For the sake of discussion though, I'll throw some stuff in here...

    Maybe an aftermarket Gavril 5.8L V8 swap and some small displacement V8's as a reference to some of the IRL counterparts. Maybe an anniversary edition with an F12 and some impractical but aggressive looking aero. Maybe some T-tops or a targa top. Maybe not.

    I'll combine these two since they are two of the four modern cars we have and are both currently limited in their options.

    The most requested addition to these cars is larger engines, as it was suggested we will see them some day and those engine bay's are certainly big enough. An ETK tuning company would be great to see, especially if organized like AMG/AMG black editions are. Basically any big engine is on the table for these and the discussion has been had before, so I'll leave this as is.

    The K-Series could get active aero, a big wing, and an aggressive body kit, making it a late game super car. Maybe even a baby hybrid system.

    Both of these could have access to the usual body styles.

    Currently this car has a choice between 2 i6 engines. Historical counterparts had options for i4, i5 (gas and diesel for both of those), V8, and V12 options, so there's a lot of room for additional factory engine options here. These cars also had many body style variations, so the usual alternative body style options and then some all apply.

    A drift car would be sensible; the 200BX currently is very lonely being the only drift car in game. Police and taxi variants are a noticeable omission currently.

    A wagon actually has some historical precedence. There's been numerous Mustang wagon conversions over the years, and the Holden HJ could inspire an Australian ute and wagon derivative. Bruckell could get a facelifted version like the Mercury Cougar-Ford Mustang. Of course, a convertible is a more sensible body style addition. If some weirder body kits are on the table, the Fort Torino King Cobra can offer some inspiration. I certainly would like to see some stuff like this and the Charger Daytona/Roadrunner Superbird because they were a part of racing history often missing in racing games.

    As with all of the old American cars, a gasser, stock car, and dirt racer configs would be appropriate.

    Well, this one isn't out yet but this is in the same boat as all the other old American cars in this list, so... Refer to any of them.

    The official reason the D-Series does not have a long bed is because it would result in too many frames for this vehicle. If the frames were re-organized a long bed could be added to the roster without adding any more frames. If the normal cab was allowed to be on the crew cab frame, a ramp truck config could easily be made.

    As for other vehicles on this frame. We know the current D-Series is based on a previous gen, and the Roamer is based on the next gen. So that's two easy to add vehicles.

    The D-Series has so many options compared to the other vehicles in game, and trucks are so easy to add a wide variety of uplifts to, that I'll just stop here because it isn't worth going into further.

    As for the Roamer, a 2 door version would be great to see, though it would need to be a shorter wheelbase.

    As for the H-Series... This van is seriously short on engine options. There are historical precedents for an i6, V6, larger V8s, i4s, i5s, diesel i4s, diesel V8s, and a V10. It could also see a facelift to bring the year up at least a couple of years. And of course there's the mythical sliding doors which were promised years ago. A minibus is an options just to have the option in bus route mode, it annoys me that we only have one vehicle for it but a dedicated chassis would be a lot of work for a second bus in a racing game...

    Well, a limo is the obvious one. That would be great fun for messing around and another possible vehicle to use in a taxi mode. This would require a FWD conversion. A wagon is another possible body style.

    A luxury marque could see a their own version and a facelift could add a couple of years to it's lifespan.

    An HD version of this truck would be a great tool in the players arsenal of destruction. Massive engine, all wheel drive, some more axles, etc... It might not be the most appropriate platform for a class 9 truck, but being that this isn't Spintires I don't think it's worth making a new truck for this when some bigger parts on the T-Series platform would be an acceptable compromise.

    I have no ideas for the Hirochi SBR

    Hirochi Sunburst: A hatchback would be appropriate. A diesel would not be out of place.

    This is another vehicle with parts caught in development limbo: The Gavril V8 swap.
    Then there is the Nissan 240SX IMSA GT. It's a bit extreme compared to current official vehicles, but that's where the fun is. Also, I can't think of anything else to toss in here.


    Ibishu Covet: Mandatory CR-X body style suggestion goes here.

    The Hopper has a good amount of customization by current standards already (Though current standards are rather low...). There is such a significant culture around cars like this that it would be futile to try and list all the modifications that would make sense for this car, So I'll just list some of the more significant things with factory output precedence.

    The Defender had some diesel i4 options, and the US spec ones came equipped with V8s.

    Facelifts could push the model years both forward and back, and the Jeep TJ received a LWB version towards the last few years of its lifespan.

    Another car with an obvious omission, only this time it actually has the suspension parts for it already in game: A rally spec config.

    Ute and wagon body styles would be fair game.

    As for engine options, some smaller engines have historical precedence.

    Again, a drift version would be nice to see so the 200BX isn't so lonely. Coupe and hatchback variations have historical precedence. To be honest, this vehicle is already much more interesting than the real life counterparts IMO.

    The most boring car in the game, the only one I regularly forget exists. And I have no idea what to do to make it interesting. It could get a wagon, though that wouldn't work any miracles for the cool factor.

    I have nothing to say for the Ibishu Pigeon or Soliad Wendover.

    The Wentward has the bendy bus UV, so there is that option. That's all I got for that.

    I know we have a lot of American cars right now, but I think a vehicle based on a Ford Model B is really important to the game. Why? Because it's the only realistic way I can think of that we will get a full open wheeler in game. A pre-war car would be great to see because of how different it would be, and when it comes to customization the sky is the limit. There is simply a monumental amount of variations, racing configs, culture references, and so on that could be done with one of these in game. Plus, these things aren't exactly complicated vehicles, so having so many extra parts shouldn't be difficult.

    Getting some more countries in game is a necessity. The Australians could easily be done with badge engineered Gavrils. Although not ideal, it would be easy. The next easiest country to add would be Britain. there's a couple of good options.
    Option A: Small roadster. In my opinion this is the best option, as it would be unique, customizable, able to participate in a wide range of race classes and missions, and mechanically simple. Something like an MG MGB or AC Cobra would be fun to drive and iconic. Factory engine options range from typical small European engines to mediocre V8s, with the option for big American V8 engine swaps.
    Option B: Modern sports car. This is also a good option IMO. A modern car, which is always highly requested. Could go the TVR route with stand out styling and big engines, or the Lotus route with a light and nimble vehicle. Speaking of which, both of those companies have modified versions of their cars that can get crazy, so they can have configs that function as end game content. Either way, it would be unique but have enough overlap to compete in racing classes currently in game.
    Option C: Classic Performance Car: This is 2 options (classic car like a Jaguar E-type or more recent sports car like a 70's Vantage) but this list is getting long so I'll consolidate them. Either way they are cool, though may or may not be iconic and customizable depending on the specifics. Kind of a risky option IMO.
    Option D: Something boring. Thinking of an old Rover or vintage Rolls Royce. Would be iconic and probably unique, but low on customization and racing options. Again, a risky choice IMO.
    Option E: Modern performance car, classic SUV, or MINI inspired vehicle:I consolidated these two options because they have the same issue making them the worst choices IMO. A modern performance car would have a lot of overlap with either the K-Series or SBR4 (And low on customization options) and the classic SUV might have a lot of overlap with the Hopper, at least if we consider the most iconic one: The Land Rover Defender. A MINI inspired vehicle would essentially be a British Autobello Piccolina. Not a bad choice, but not good for the "what it adds to the game to recourses to make" ratio.
    Option F: Everyday Modern Vehicle: Specifically thinking of the Jaguar XE/Project 8 here. A good way of filling the generic modern car niche while adding another high performance modern car.

    The next most iconic country missing is France. They are stereotypically associated with boring modern cars and some very strange older vehicles, but they certainly have some things worthy of being in the game.
    Option A: Sporty 1960's/1970's Car: Peugeot had some sporty looking vehicles small cars once upon a time. As far as I can tell, these tended to have a lot of body styles and even some racing pedigree. Fun, unique, and customizable. A safe option IMO.
    Option B: Hot Hatch (Vintage or Modern): Another thing the French are known for. Could be the first modern hatchback in game, or an older one to compete with the Covet. If it is an older one, the base models could be a good career mode starter car. Either way, somewhat customizable and iconic with racing pedigree.
    Option C: Modern Crossover (Or something else boring): Crossovers are so popular in today's market that it would be a big omission from the game. That's really the only reason to want one in game. The boring option IMO. The French have some other boring normal stuff too. If we are going to add French, it may as well be something recognizable instead of a boring everyday vehicle since we are at best probably only going to get one, so this is getting lumped in here instead of having its own option.
    Option D: Something Crazy: If we are going to get something weird, it may as well be French. It may be cool like the Citreon GT, it may be actually a nice car like the Citreon DS, it may be silly like the CItron 2CV or something laughable like the Renault Twizy and Citroen/Purgeot re badged Mitsubishi i-MiEV. The only thing They all have a common factor: They stand out, and not in the best way.

    The Sweedish actually have some cool stuff, so hopefully we see a couple cars from them.
    Option A: A Wagon: The classic Volvo wagons are the most iconic Swedish vehicle, but a bit boring. A modern one would be too close to the 800 Series to be worth it.
    Option B: Anything inspired by a classic Volvo (Even some classic Saabs): Volvo has so many cool classic cars, it's difficult to pick just one to suggest, which is why I hope we see a few classic Sweedish cars someday. Some of these would have a wide range of possible configs. For example, the PV800 Series had some awesome looking off-roaders and shared parts with Volvo trucks. Some other classic Sweedish cars could have taxi, police, and racing configs. I could ramble on about this for awhile, so many of these are just cool and under appreciated vehicles. Even Saab has some cool classic stuff.
    Option C: Something Boring: Unfortunately, those awesome vintage Sweedish cars are overshadowed by their modern vehicles since everyone knows them as such good daily drivers for safety, value, and practicality. How boring.

    Chinese cars: China's early cars are known for being really, really bad. Their modern one's are known for being hilariously similar to western cars. Probably best to skip Chinese cars, as funny as an EKT-008 Series would be.
    Korean cars: Again, mostly boring stuff. Would probably be the best option to put some of the boring modern cars in game under the Korean flag. There is the option for a modern sedan with performance variants inspired by the Stinger GT.
    Soviet cars: It would be nice to see something from here, since these are ignored by racing games. Even if it is a run down sedan that you'll only ever use if you run out of money in career mode.

    A medium duty truck is physically the largest empty niche currently. The way I see it, there are three possibilities.
    1) Currently all of the trucks in game are American. Japanese or European trucks would be nice to see, perhaps a Unimog inspired vehicle.
    2) A COE truck like a Ford C900 would be a great platform for specific vehicles (Fire truck included) and can have a class 7 variant.
    3) Something cobbled together from the Gavril parts bin. The older GMC Topckick/Chevy Kodiak and medium duty F-Series trucks used the cabs of the light duty pickups, so going this route could use a lot of parts from the T-Series and D-Series to reduce the work to create it.

    A vintage Japanese performance car would be great to see. Nearly anything that went under the skyline name could function as inspiration, along with something like the Mazda RX-3. Easy way to get a Wankel engine in, along with another unique and fun vehicle.

    When it comes to the 1990's, we are currently short on performance cars, only having the 200BX. This is rather unfortunate situation, as these cars were the compromise between modern cars and simpler cars. Mostly modern performance with mostly simple constructions. Many cars of this era could be affordable in early career mode and upgraded into the late game. A gen 1 Sunburst would be great to see as the Sunburst is currently one of the most versatile vehicles and the early gen Evo's were beautiful cars. This is just one of many options for this era of course, not much of a point in me listing the many iconic 1990's cars.

    The Civetta Fulmine: This seems to be always the highlight of the concept list when it comes up. Clearly there is a demand for it, and a physically beautiful vintage supercar/grand tourer would be an all around great addition to the game.

    Just gonna throw this in as an after thought, a rear engined swing suspension car would be great to see considering the controversy surrounding the Corvair. Always nice to see stuff in game where we can get an idea just how weird cars like that actually handle.

    Afterthought 2: A german sports car would be nice to see. Iconic, unique, and customizable. There's an option from every era from post-war to modern.

    Afterthought 3: Personally I find modern pickup trucks boring, but having a vintage and modern pickup would be a good way of showing how big vehicles have become. Plus, some of the 2019 model year trucks have near tractor levels of torque, which would be interesting to have in game.

    That isn't a small amount of cars, but the game really is lacking in variety right now, the roster really should be bolstered in preparation for career mode and full release. Getting some interesting and diverse cars in the game would really help its image and keep interest in career mode. The lack of diversity currently in the game is because the game originally was designed to focus on demolition derby, but now that it is trying to cover more, the car lineup needs to reflect that.

    I just want to +1 any Covet competitors, I think that for a career mode we would need cheap/beatup hatchbacks to rebuild and race

    1968 - 1975 Civetta Angelo ( Based off the 1969 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 and the 1971 Lamborghini Jarama GT )

    This Italian sports car was Civetta's way of putting their foot in the door of consumers looking for fast cars and low prices. The Angelo was Civetta's best selling car in the late 60s and early 70s, however, Civetta decided to retire the Angelo in 1975 in favor of developing a new mid engine V8 Supercar that we all now know as the Bolide.

    Trims:


    392: The "Base" model Angelo came with a 350hp 3.9L V12 and a 5 speed manual transmission. It may not be the fastest trim of the Angelo, but it is loved just as much as it's faster brethren.

    392S: The 392S comes with a tuned 3.9L V12 that makes 365hp and the same 5 speed manual transmission. You may say +15hp is very little, but keep in mind the S only costs 1,000 dollars more then the regular 392.

    439: The 439 comes with a 4.4L V12 that makes 380hp and a 6 speed manual transmission, which was revolutionary for it's time. The 439 Also boasted a top speed of over 174mph.

    439R: The 439R is the race spec version of the 439. Carrying a 394hp 4.4L V12 and it's 6 speed manual transmission, along with getting a aerodynamic body kit complete with a nosecone and spoiler, this was one of the fastest race cars ever designed back in it's day!

    Diavolo: The Diavolo is a completely different car compared to the regular versions of the Angelo. Carrying the 3.9L V8 of the Bolide 390GTR after being bored up and turbo charged, it's new engine is pushing over 645hp, and it's 6 speed manual transmission has been given longer gear ratios, so now this car's top speed is 218mph!

    Exterior and Interior (Based on the 392S)
