    Actually, my primary inspiration was the first-gen Lexus LS400 and first-gen Crown Majesta, but as this is a badge-engineered car, they don't fit as much. Nonetheless, the main inspiration was Japanese full-size sedans of the 90s.

    You should give it amber blinkers instead of the red ones since all JDM cars are required to have amber blinkers

    All 5th gen Celicas were built in Japan, and all 5th gen Celica convertibles were built at ASC in California
    This means that JDM Celica convertibles were first built in Japan, sent across the Pacific ocean to have the roof cut off, and then sent all the way back.
    Let's go places.

    Makes sense though. At the time, the Japanese were creating big land yachts with an American feel.

    True, although it is a bit like the opposite IRL (LS400 was designed for the US market) I suppose this is what the game lacks - 90s JDM full-size. Although some might say this isn't quite a JDM, it is how close I can get to one with my skills and skills of people that are helping me (there are quite a few and I will credit them in the official release).

    Yeah, I completely agree. The LS400 made its way into the UK too. You're doing a great job already man. I've tried making mods, and years into on and off practicing, I am finally getting the hang of modelling things. But man, it's tricky! Keep it up. You'll get there for sure. :)
