Pretty good mod, needs a new interior though.

Good concept but the c series interior would work a lot better, and the model looks a bit idk, choppy in some places like the sedans rear doors.
Also, I saw that you said the c series is not public, but it is https://www.beamng.com/resources/etk-c-series-2004-2011.23752/
(if I misunderstood you there I'm sorry) but overall I like it quite a lot. -

Aaand there goes my dream and vision of making a lore-friendly E90 with lots of cool features because someone else did it now :(
Really wish I could've done this.
Nevertheless, the mod is alright.-

Nice mod! But, some things do not correspond to the timing of the E9X release. The most suitable steering wheel is from the ETK C-series. Elements of the interior can also be made in the spirit of that time. Wheels can also be included in this list. As is the dashboard. I love how StivJocuri has done his interpretation of the ETK in the style of a mid-2000 BMW. But, unfortunately, Stiv did not publish this mod.

we wanted to use his interior assets, but unfortunatelly, the only public version is a leak on modland and that is earlier version when it still had the 800 interior

Overall a concept of a 2000s ETK is good, and i liked that, but that's really the only thing i mostly like about it.
It has some issues with the model, as i can see some intense shading issues in the model. But most important of them all is that the only changes that are done are the headlight shape, and the rear.
I see no reason for making it separate if most of it is the same as the 800 series. since the only things that were changed are the headlights and the rear bits. And the naming too, why it can't be the 800 if both the 800 and 700 are based off the 3 Series BMW?
I also see no reason to add 90 configs into this. Try to follow the config list of modern ETKs and try to optimize the list using that as an example. You can still keep the custom and personal configs though, i personally don't mind that.
I think that it would be better if more things would've been done to the model and make it more similar to the 3 Series it tries to copy.
I don't mean that it's a bad mod either, if people like it, then i have nothing against them, i would also do the same if i wasn't much into details. But i can't give it more than 3 stars because of the issues i have noticed instantly after installing the mod.-

The concept is there, but the execution is not. At this point it is an ETK 800 fascia mod with some questionable shading and modelling. The lore does not make sense as the 700 moniker suggests that this is a completely different model, not a predecessor.
This mod has potential but it needs a lot more work than it has been given thus far. -

model quality is questionable, it didn't need to be completely separate and it definitely didn't need 90 configs

I saw this mod, and was like, "ok, cool". I download it just to check it out, and found myself an hour and a half later throwing around the getaway config. I really like this mod, and its looks. Keep up ur work!

Very cool idea, theres a few shading problems that you can easily fix and will make the car look much better, mainly the front fenders, rear quarter panels, C pillar and trunk. Other than that i like it :)

Great idea! I will use this car as my personal choice instead of vanilla 800-Series.

Not sure what everyone is on about; the modeling and textures look perfectly fine, and the car is fun to drive with excellent handling. Definitely recommended.

good mod, but uses many parts from the 800 series so it seems more like a mod of the 800 series compared to a whole separate car.
