    There was a time when I was, but then a friend with a very specific vision of this game accused me of being too accepting of what the devs are doing. Come to think of it, we aren't actually friends anymore, so screw it, I think it looks nice. I would *personally* prefer remasters of existing content to be prioritized, but that doesn't exclude a new car being added once in a while.

    To be completely honest, i'm not a fan of the design of the thing


    The rear of the car just doesnt really seem sleak but rather a little bulbous and chunky, like a bugatti veyron for example. The windshield length and angle are also not as sporty as they could be. in this car i see boilde esque design langauge in its proportions but im really unsure if i like that. it could have been more sleek, more flat, less round and just sharper in the rear. i really like the front based off of design sketches, but the rear is not something i can really get used to.


    the rear being a little more akin to the mc20 would have been nice, wtih a less deep rear window line, lower rear and just looking way flatter and sportier.

    I get that the beamNG devs are not professional automitive designers but i feel like they never really nail how a modern car is supposed to look (or a supercar/sportscar for that matter)

    You haven't even seen the body panels, though

    I tried to recreate this thing as closely as I could based on the lines on the ground. If that's correct, it appears to be much larger than an SBR4. Both have their front suspensions aligned on the front cube, but the supercar's rear suspension goes much further back than the SBR's.

    Let's add a little more to the speculation, and the hype of the car... Dimensions wise, is it bigger/longer than the sbr4 or bolide?

    Other than that, I for one am astounded by the pure detail of the model...of the bare chassis...can't wait to see it with everything on it!

    Idk, it looks like it has enough room to fit a V10 and comfortably so. Plus, the engine has quite a bit of it hidden behind the chassis rails. Only 3 cylinder chambers are shown, with the two ends of the engine quite possibly hiding a cylinder each.

    we have seen concept sketches and can assume the design by the way the chassis is built

    If u count the coils on top of the valve cover, u can clearly see 4...I'd say it's safe to assume it's a v8, but a v10 is easily feasible

    Yep, I think I have to agree on this one, there seem to be 4 coils per side but ok, not the absolute entirety of the engine is visible. But it's certainly a V8, to the very least.

    As I already said. We didn't even get to see the panels. And I'm pretty much sure those would add 20/30cm to the length

    Isn't the DCT a worthy transmission to be put in a Supercar? Even normal Torque Converter Automatics are good enough for such an application these days! ;)

    Decided to attempt to recreate the photo with the bolide, seeing that it's a Civetta. One with body panels and one bare chassis.

    I combined the teasers we already got with the dimensions and proportions of this teaser. This is what I came up with:

    A v8 would be lame though in my opinion. There are so many in the game now and a v10 or v12 is completely missing. But im also counting only 4 header tubes and then they are connecting into the muffler. So i think its going to be a v8 sadly.

    With all of the complaining about this new car (that I, for one, am excited about because hey more cars), I REALLY want the devs to release like 10 updates adding no new elements to really put this community in its place.

    It looks great, devs. I love your work, FIX THE DAMN MEMORY LEAK.
