    LOL now i get what you meant by that. my good god if they did it forever i will be a mess LOL :p

    Also i do wonder what Else the LEgran will get other then the new wagon. AWD and facelift. I Wonder ( BUT doubt lots and lots ) if we will also get a coupe of that. But nah that will eat into the fun of Wendova

    this is actually a really good point.
    the wendover is a large, luxurious car, which is already FWD, and the overall tacky 80's aesthetic of it would lend itself perfectly to a limousine version.

    I’m cautiously optimistic that we will get an update early this week

    Most likely Wednesday/Thursday. That way it's close to Easter, but the devs at least have one day to answer any pressing issues.

    I've waited over seven years for this update, it better be damn good!

    I always expect updates to be earlier in the week, so just in case a game-breaking bug gets found out a few days after release the devs don't have to work on weekends.

    Good point. Now I'm thinking either Monday, Tuesday or next week altogether.

    Keep in mind that if I were wrong along with everyone else saying the same thing, Nadeox would have cleaned this thread and told us to be patient long ago.

    Transverse 4WD drivetrains are relatively rare afaik. Maybe the LeGran 4WD drivetrain will feature a longitudinally-mounted engine, this could also open up a possibility for a RWD and AWD swap which could generate a whole lot of more configuration possibilities.

    Are we sure the LeGran's AWD/4WD will even be a factory option? Never underestimate the off-road power of redneck engineering!

    At the moment it's basically just straight up a GM A-Body, which had one transverse FF AWD car (Pontiac 6000 STE).

    A longitudinal swap (factory or aftermarket) would open up some cool possibilities, but it isn't necessary.

    80's songs that soliad my wendover





    I am going to use "Effigy" by Ministry for a Soliad Wendover commercial

    edit: more realistically this would be the zenith of boomer singalong commercials

    If career mode was paid DLC most people wouldn't buy it lol. Also, it would be cool to get an official limo, and maybe the Wendover would be a fitting car for such a thing.

    Limo... But which car would be the best? Wendover has enough content and it would look weird. Roamer maybe, just maybe. Grand Marshall seems the most realistic because it's already... l o n g.
    Nah, just do it for the Pigeon and it will be alright.

    I was thinking the same thing, but the Grand Marshal is based on the Crown Vic, but the upscale version is the Lincoln Town Car, and that was predominantly used as limos.

    How do you know the Wendover has enough content if we have literally only seen the base model, what if it's the only one lol

    I don`t know! lol But we might have (these are my guesses): Green-for sure, Yellow(ish)-guess but possible, Red-no evidence for that
    -Derby,
    -Basic versions: That`s two because Manual and Automatic,
    -Mid-trim: also two I guess,
    -High-trim: same as above,
    -V8?
    -Street Tuned,
    -Maybe Drag?
    10 configs... That`s a medium number I think. But devs maybe have something in their pocket to shook us, right?

    If there's a sedan there could be a police version, but not on a factory police package though.

    I find it funny how you listed derby, which has never been mentioned by the developers, as green for 'for sure' but there isn't a single factory config that is 'for sure'. It makes me think that the Soliad Wendover will consist of a sole Derby configuration.

    What I think:

    Factory:

    - Derby
    - Derby LWB limousine
    - Base
    - Mid spec
    - High spec
    - Ultra high spec
    - Sport spec
    - LWB limousine


    Aftermarket:
    - Derby

    - Derby LWB limousine
    - Street tuned
    - Some sort of VIP private taxi?
    - Longitudinal V8 swap
    - Trackday
