    I just got this today and saw you could get different cars and play with them. I installed a couple cars and i couldnt get any of them to work. i got the game with steam. when i take the folder containing the car data and put it in the vehicles folder i can see it in the selection list in game but when i click on it i get nothing for the model and nothing works. however i can switch to a different car that was already in the game and it works just fine. ive tried this with 3 different vehicles with none of them working. any ideas?

    Have you renamed the Vehicle mods that usually breaks it unless you renamed some stuff in it (which takes an eternity)
    Make sure you haven't renamed anything

    Make sure there isn't a folder within a folder. If you click on the car's folder in the vehicles folder, there should be all the files, not another folder.

    (I realize I said folder way too many times in those sentences)
