Don’t forget that we had Van remaster and Bolide remaster in one update. Bastion also came a few weeks later. If the covet gets it there’s still potential for another remaster. I don’t think we will be seeing another vehicle, since the new civetta is in the concept phase. Probably update after this one, though.
For anyone questioning whether or not the widebody kit is for the covet It lines up perfectly* with the existing body and trim lines over the covet. *There are a few differences in the general curvature, but I am willing to bet that's due to this being a refreshed covet design. I should also note that the camera angle, while good, is not perfect, which could also be a contributing factor.) If one was to extend the bodywork of the existing covet, including the new curvature seen in the widebody, it would extend out from almost the exact same position as the existing arches on the car.
OMG lets hope its the Covet. I am wishing for a sedan version. As i said time before. As i love the Small 80s Small FWD ecoboxes. Smaller then Pessima and legran, Something i can abuse. Be good to get some new Engine meshes. As well as some overall updates. If it is not. I think it may be a new hatch. Of some sort but maybe not. As they working on the new super car. I small a Covet remaster. Even if its not a sedan. Maybe a 4 door hatch. OH while am here. Anyone wishing for a fastback version. Like the old CRX. as a Kid i hated them. Now i kinda like them. LOL. What ever it is i cant wait.
Oh shit, I meant Covet --- Post updated --- Fixed this quote to the names I actually meant.. no idea why I said Bolide
Yep, a small, light and nimble FWD (or even AWD, since the Covet's got IRS) 2-door glasshatch coupe would be a great addition for expanding the Covet bodystyle lineup! If anything, such a car is missing from the BeamNG lore! Imagine it with the ZXi DOHC 1.5/GTz 2.0 Inline-4s, the ZXi/GTz Struts, the Ibishu Blades/Type-LS/Type-ZS wheels, some special ZXi/GTz graphics and an LSD! Man, these two versions look lit already!
Speaking of possible Covet body styles... It's worth noting that the third gen Civic did have a 4WD shuttle varient. It's certainly less cool than a CRX and a lot more work, but I do love my quirky cheap car/truck challenge off roaders. Though between the LeGran and Pigeon/Wigeon that niche isn't actually empty anymore...
This niche is still empty in the sense that there's no Compact 4WD vehicle based on a Compact City Car! The LeGran SE Campagne is an American Midsize Wagon (with large overhangs) while the Pigeon/Wigeon are just too small to be doing any work of decent difficulty and they're only RWD, so they don't have decent traction either. The CR-X covers yet another niche while there's also that of the Compact 4-door Sedan. The 1.5/2.0 DOHC engines can be great for the former while the 1.5/1.8 SOHC ones can serve the latter (and the Shuttle) very well.
Aww... I was briefly excited over the idea the game might be getting its third hatchback in the form of an old French rally car. Having some new parts for the Covet is always nice though. I'm glad @Acrain7 pointed out that the new bodykit doesn't seem to line up with the existing door, which seems to indicate a more thorough remaster coming in the future. That's something I would not have noticed on my own.
The Covet was the second or third vehicle ever added to the game, alongside the Grand Marshal. It's long overdue for a remaster.
Thats what I was saying before but I think my initial name muddle up meant nobody actually read what I said
