Update Speculation thread

once again i was right with my prediction

 

The shape of the headlights looks a bit different from actual.. maybe a facelift will be included with this tt-sport bodykit?

 

A mid engine sports car based on the Covet could work. you know because the MR2 is basically a mid engine Corolla I think.

Well they are giving us a mid engine covet so they may as well give us a mid engine sports car that's cheaper than the Bolide.

 

Remember theres the mg metro group b car, the clio v6, golf mk5 with an bentley engine and it would probably look more like them instead of the the MR2

 

The mid engine covet he's referring to is probably the BeamNG version of the MG Metro 6R4, Clio V6 ( at least from what i can tell in TeaserTuesday)

 

A small, 2-seater, mid engined sports car that's not the shape of the Covet? That's actually amazing, hadn't thought about it!
And for competition, Soliad can also make such a car by using the existing transverse Bruckell 2.2/2.5 I4s and 3.3/3.8 V6s (plus the 4.4 V8 lying in the parts selector), for a pleiad of versions, from plain Jane commuters to hot rod bruisers!

 

I feel like the k series has barely been updated since it's release

More than that, the Corolla is fwd, mr2 obviously isnt

 

The reason he mentioned the MR2 is because it has its powertrain mounted transversely, just like the Corolla, so it's easily swappable between the two cars. That's also the reason why I think Soliad can also make a competitor to the proposed Covet variant, because Bruckell and Soliad shared the same transverse I4 and V6 (and, potentially, the V8) powertrains back then.

 

the front grilles are filled in, i wonder why, maybe a electric version? i could be competently wrong,

 

It's just not textured

 

I just hope they make those modelled rear fog lamps work lmao

 

ah, that makes sense,

 

I noticed the air curtains on each side of the front bumper, for giving more front-end downforce. I hope the vents on the fenders get functional too (they're fake in the current state of the car) so as to complete the aerodynamics package at the front end of the car.

 

There's gonna be a few cars that's gotta be added on, but I would love to see it!

 

makes you think that they would also update the aero simulation

 

I'd really like them to because, in the latest updates, we see some complicated aero aids. The GTT Radiator Duct and the Race Radiator Duct to match the GTT Hood and Race Hood (both of which have vents on them) on the remastered Bolide, the Race Hood and the headlight-to-cowl air ducts on the Scintilla (plus the flying buttresses plus the GTs Corse's fixed rear wing with the open slot, a la Lamborghini's ALA - these are features we've never seen in a BeamNG official car before) and the hood vent we saw the remastered Covet will have, all these features suggest an update of the aero simulation model.

 

By the way, what does SkinDragCoef do ? I was wondering if i could use it to fix the drag problem on my mod
