    Hi. As a Mercedes-Benz fan, I really don't like that it's called the ETK brand. After all, according to the game's lore, it's a BMW. =) Plus, their chassis is very different. In the game, the I-series is structurally the E34. The 123 has different suspension kinematics. And the front is completely different, as it has double wishbones. Is this just my curiosity and my misunderstanding of the mod's purpose? Is it just a redesign? Could you please comment on my thoughts? Will you keep the same suspension design? Have you considered coming up with a new name? Like Emilia-Herz or something like that. The first is a German first name, the second is a German last name. Similar to the original brand, except Mercedes is a Spanish name)))

    Not all of the I-Series is a E34,since there are some stuff called ttSport Evolution,which surely familar to you because it was inspired by W201 EVO II
    In my opinion it's more like a combination of the E34+W201,with a some what mid-size body

    What are you talking about, the I-Series is clearly a late-70s Audi 100 C2 with BMW elements such as the hofmeister kink

    The Audi 100 is a front-wheel drive car. That's where the debate ends.

    W201 has a multi-link suspension with adjustable drop. I'm inclined to consider this car parody a failure. Structurally, it's an E34 with elements of the EVO styling. I don't understand why the developers mixed this mess together. They thereby precluded the possibility of a proper Mercedes copy. The design of the chassis is still decisive.

    I think you're taking a physics sim, that happens to use fictional cars, way too seriously. And... Why is my comment in russian in your quote, but the other one isn't?

    ETK is an amalgamation of Audi, BMW and Mercedes. It is not supposed to represent one single brand.

    lol same with ibishu: it's honda and toyota, which is really annoying, because they are very different.

    Are you sure? Based on the cars available in the game, there's nothing resembling an Audi or Mercedes (aside from a couple of Evo configurations), but it's very similar to a BMW. Mixing everything up isn't a good idea. A great example is the new German brand AW, which hints at Volkswagen. It's immediately obvious, both from the cars' appearance and the badge. There are some very successful mods under this brand. But with this ETK, everything is rather vague.
    Yes, you're right. I take this seriously)) I really love models, cars, and simulators. This simulator combines many of my interests, so I guess that's why I take it seriously. Plus, perfectionism haunts me. But I don't want to impose my opinion, I just came to discuss it))

    My English isn't very good. I was translating the page using Chrome and forgot to turn off the translator when I sent the message)))
