    And some Ferrari SF90 Stradale and Ford GT90 elements in the flying buttresses too! Gorgeous!

    If you mean the BeamNG logo, yes, it's been there ever since the car was introduced back in June 15th 2022! :)

    In my opinion, I don't like how the Scintilla drives. It feels even more unpredictable than the Bolide for some odd reason. Maybe I have more good driving time with the Bolide, who knows. But still, the Scintilla to me just doesn't feel right

    It has ESC to interfere with the perfect sliding corner exit you would have achieved without it.

    It also seems twitchy, even with the ESC "helping".

    Exactly, Ferrari took the Italian Motorsport red color and made it their color. However, you can buy cars other than Ferraris in this color.

    Tbh, I find it pretty docile, even on twisty and bumpy country roads. The ESC is routed through the electronic differential and I'd say it's doing a great job of putting the power down without robbing the engine on power on corner exits, even on the strictest drive mode, which is the "Strada" one. Naturally, the RWD variants are more oversteery and the AWD ones are more neutral-understeery, but that's to be expected.
    That said, the Bolide has come a long way and it's quite neutral now. At least from my experience!
    Drive a RWD Scintilla on some twisty roads in Italy and you'll see what I mean! Just be careful with over-/underestimating the car, the road and yourself! :)

    I think the devs made some sort of global change recently that made cars a lot more stable overall. For example the Street Tuned Bastion, which used to be all over the road, is legitimately driveable now. The ETK I-series used to be quite drifty even in AWD form, not so much anymore. I haven't driven a Scintilla or higher-end Bolide recently so I'll have to check them out.

    Yep, I can confirm that. Especially for the I-Series in RWD form!

    The Scintilla should have beam wipers instead of the traditional ones.

    The GTs/GTs Spyder and the GTx/GTx Spyder configurations use the wrong ecu. The description for all of them says it’s a higher revving model, but it still uses the same ecu as the GT. They are supposed to use the sport ecu instead of the stock one.
