    Today, all BeamNG vehicles have similar chances of spawning as AI cars, and let's be honest - it's not the most realistic when a 50s American midrange sedan has the same chance as a modern Japanese performance car.

    So I propose that the devs add different realistic spawning frequencies for different maps, and ideally various frequencies for different districts of maps. They would determine the chance of a certain model's spawn on a map or area of it.
    Mod authors would also have the option of adding custom spawning frequencies for their maps, or adding spawning frequencies for mod cars to official maps.

    Here's an example spawning frequency list for West Coast's public roads I made, based on the San Francisco and Los Angeles Craigslist listing frequency, as well as other sources for different cars.
    - 800-Series - 280,
    - Sunburst - 100,
    - K-Series - 75,
    - SBR4 - 45,
    - H-Series - 13,
    - New Pessima - 9,
    - Hopper - 7,
    - D40L - 6,
    - Roamer - 5.8,
    - I-Series - 3.3
    - Piccolina - 2.9,
    - Barstow - 2.7,
    - Old Pessima - 1.1,
    - D-Series - 0.8,
    - Covet - 0.7,
    - 200BX - 0.6,
    - Bolide - 0.45,
    - Grand Marshal - 0.25,
    - Moonhawk - 0.2,
    - T-Series - 0.15,
    - Wendover - 0.15,
    - LeGran - 0.07,
    - Special - 0.06,
    - Miramar - 0.015,
    - Pigeon - 0.004.

    i mean u can change in game files, but a pigeon as 0.004% bruh why so rare ): and grand marshals arent that rare that they should be 0.25%i dont think an etk 800 series would be that common because its an expensive car. plus its such a minor thing and there are more important things to worry about

    It's a wealthy liberal area in the US. They might not like old big American sedans, but a late-model German luxury car is just the right thing.

    yeah
    i agree with you
    people are looking at that list as if it applies to the entire world, its only for an upscale Southern Californian city.
    and as a Californian, i can confirm that this list is very, very accurate

    merica, but still it's already pretty good and cars are imported from all around the world, unless there is a china map i think this is in the game to a certain point.
    --- Post updated ---
    never said you were, just saying that I see a lot of trucks in beamng so I think this in the game, and also I read that sentence in a redneck voice and it was funny

    Beam already does that it even takes the country the map is set in, in consideration... Tge pigeon only spawns in italy for example
