1975-1981 CMG Venezia Stradale (52 CONFIGS) 1.1.3

Malaise era Italian sportscar destined to rip and shred!

    Hi and welcome to probably the most insanely detailed Automation mod you've ever seen! It's the Catalani Motor Group (CMG) Venezia Stradale!

    Before I get into the lore and technical specifications of the vehicle, I want to also share its backstory with you! Basically, about two weeks ago I made a Reddit post (https://www.reddit.com/r/automationgame/comments/1mcp73j/comment/n6c7p7l/?context=3) where I invited people to give me their old or terrible Automation creations, so I could then give them a complete makeover. Well, one person gave me this unique sportscar from the 1970s, and it obviously peeked my interest the second I saw it.

    Original Venezia honestly didn't look that bad either!

    It was just... not that detailed. (also, what are those taillights?!?)


    Out with the old, in with the new.

    Unfortunately, I had to recreate the entire car in Automation, piece by piece. It was hard work, but I did finish it eventually. The hardest part though was making the 52 configurations work properly. A nightmare, you could say.

    CMG was just starting out when they designed and produced the Venezia. Only there was a small problem: Italy and its neighboring countries had been oversaturated with sportscars and exotics for a while now. So instead, CMG chose to export the Venezia to a market no one would expect: the US. Advertised as being the 'Pantera killer', Venezia quickly became a legendary car amongst the masses, heavily boosting sales and cementing CMG as a trustful brand.



    // Mod overlook:

    Yes, you read that right! This mod contains 52 different configurations of the Venezia. You can choose from every single color in and out of the rainbow.

    This car has a lot of features that you don't really see on other Automation creations: realistic JBeam structure (it crumbles and cracks realistically), breakable fuel tank (you can start fires with it if you hit it hard enough!), working mirrors, steering wheel, pedals, manual shifter, headlight and indicator levers on the steering column, retro speedometer and tachometer, vintage radio, ignition key and, most importantly, POP-UP HEADLIGHTS!!!

    5/5,
    Version: 1.1.3
    Allow me to tell you this. This has to be the best Automation car I have ever driven.

    The details are superb. The looks of the Venezia Stradale are just like a proper 70’s Italian supercar, giving off the same inspiration as a Maserati or even a De Tomaso from that era.

    It drives and feels like a 70’s car. No ABS, proper steering, and of course, the car itself encourages you to go a little mad. The interior is proper, with no messy camera setups, and the V8 sound you’ve added is fantastic.

    Faults? Just a few, really. The car doesn’t have openable doors, which I assume is an Automation limitation — but we can let that slide. Then there are the lights, which for some reason don’t illuminate the road, only the interior.

    But despite those small faults, I dare say this is a fantastic job. The best Automation car not only in terms of driving, but also in the finer details. I hope you improve this mod further, and I look forward to whatever else you create.
