    Yes, since a 3-liter Inline-6 fits in the modern ETKs with room to spare, a 6-liter V12 could very well be shoved in too. But I believe the 800-Series and the K-Series don't really need a V12 because they're not large and heavy enough to be truly benefitted. Plus the V12 would also upset the weight distribution and the overall dynamic balance of these cars. So they can get by with a 4.0l V8 too. ;)
    The 6.0l V12 (along with the aforementioned 4.0l V8 and, of course, the existing 3.0l Inline-6 gas/diesel engines) could be part of an F-Segment ETK Flagship Luxury Sedan and could genuinely elevate the status of the ETK brand in the world of BeamNG. But if the V12 gets swapped in the 800 and the K, then why not? :cool:;):p

    K series still has no ttsport version too, so they definitely still have plans for a bigger engine.

    I don't see a V8 being put in the ETK 800, just doesn't seem like the kind of car to use one. The K-Series is much more likely to see a V8. Anything larger doesn't really make sense either but that's me.

    On the older topic of what could be next on refreshing other than the ETKs, I think the Covet is the next car being refreshed, since it's pretty much the oldest car that wasn't given a major remaster. Moonhawk to follow suit, Grand Marshal phase 2, both ETKs, and maybe Sunburst afterwards. I can see both the ETKs being done at once.

    The 200BX is really outdated, it shows it's age as clear as day, and with the inspiration the devs had on the 2nd Gen Pessima, it could become a tuner's dream car if the remaster would bring more content to it, so I think it might be the next target of the remaster. Probably next would be the Moonhawk, then the Covet, and then the other ontes you listed.

    I think there's a chance the moonhawk remaster is somewhere next on the list, it would make sense to tie up the whole bruckell lineup and connect the trim level variance with the bastion.
    I get a feeling that the 200BX and covet are going to be done in close succession, as we've already got some engine customisation parts for them, and the 80s/90s Ibishu assets have been started with the gen 5 pessima.
    The gen 3 pessima is probably high enough quality to warrant being held off for now, i'd say the only reason the legran's remaster was fast-tracked was for the release of the Wendover.

    the last few with comparable deficiencies are probably the T-series and sunburst, neither of which really share anything with any other existing vehicle.

    You are so kind, thank you very much! ;)
    The sounds are lovely! The V6 indeed sounds like the Dino Stratos V6 and the V8 has the crunchy idle telling us it's a highly tuned unit! And the revving-out of the V8 is also really nice, having some Cleveland 351 notes!
    I hope the existing American V8 sound doesn't get phased out though because it fits the 80s/90s/00s 4.5 and 5.5 SOHC V8 engines very well. The V8 sound heard here is more fitting to the classic 291/353/378/423 V8s and also to the modern 6.9 version of the 423! :cool:

    Are these sounds gonna be included sometime? Because that's what I get by reading the comments referring to the new sounds set.

    A V8 definitely suits the 800. Slightly off topic, a tiny wishlist for the 800s eventual remaster:
    • A sedan varian
    • A 4 door “coupe”
    • A 4.0 liter V8 available in both NA and twin turbo.
    • A Popcorn tune for the I6 like every other modded bmw has.
    • More aftermarket.

    It's 2:40 AM where i live so it might be me, but even by raising the brightness i don't see anything weird, i guess he was trolling

    Edit
    At a closer look there seem to be some light posts on the side of the street, right behind the word back, i haven't played BeamNG in a while so i don't remember if they were already there or they will be added in 0.25
