    Wagons for both Pessima generations would be grand.

    I agree with the 1st gen Pessima but do we need wagons for every car?

    I think the main attention in that update was for the textures and geometry which were practically ancient, and let's not forget it was a parallel update with the H-Series. Aside from the racing config's suspension there were no drivetrain additions. I do think it'll get more content at some point but not for a while.
    I have lost count of how many Pessima coupe mods there have been over the years. I fully ate that stuff up every time, same with the RSV and the liftback.

    I feel like that's kind of the point of the '96 Pessima - it's meant to be the lackluster alternative to the '88 Pessima. It is a bit of a shame that the '96 Pessima doesn't even get all-wheel-drive (the LeGran did in its remaster), because wow, is the basic chassis for it so good. I thought that most of the '96 Pessima 1.8 DX's handling advantage over its 1988 equivalent was due to the wider tyres (205/60 standards vs 185/70 standards). However, I stuck the '96 Pessima's wheels on the '88, and it still had lower average grip at 64 km/h on the Gridmap skidpad. (0.87g for the '96, 0.83g for the '88 on the '96's wheels. (0.81g for the stock '88, by the way.)) The '96 Pessima DX has almost the same g-force level as the '88 Pessima GTZ and ZX AWS (0.88g, 195/60 sports). Genuinely, I prefer driving the '96 Pessima over the '88.

    I don't think we'll be getting AWD or AWS for it, though, as there's already plenty of FWD-based AWD vehicles in the game. Speaking of the rally trims, it's a bit odd that the '96 Pessima's rally trim didn't get updated to the new NGRC standards, like the '88's. EDIT: Turns out the '88 Pessima's updated rally config is not NGRC-compliant, so clearly, the NGRC's a recently-established organization.

    A) yes, yes we do
    B) the Pessima could get a 5 door hatch like the Mazda 626. Combined with AWD that would be a unique quirky car

    AWD yes. But no, not everything needs a wagon. Leave that to the modders, not everything needs to be “qUiRkY”.

    A '96 Pessima wagon would be super cool (and one is actually going to be coming out with KLJP)

    Only thing really missing is a modern truck. Perhaps a mid size truck like a Tacoma and a ranger

    I'm honestly kind of impressed as to how some people haven't gotten tired of American/USDM vehicles yet. I'd personally love for the next new vehicle to be something more at home in Europe or Asia, like a modern A/B-segment/subcompact hatch, a sleek 60s/70s grand tourer, or even a medium-duty truck along the lines of an Elf or Fuso Canter.

    I think that it would be awesome to see Burnside and Bluebuck wagons as soon as they get remastered

    the big problem with a modern international sized truck is that it ends up being almost the same size as the D-series, and has about the same power output, etc.

    I still think a 1500 sized US pickup is a possiblity, but it would probably need to have something unique about it compared to the D series.
    an electric version in line with the F150 Lightning or Ram REV would be a unique addition, and if they were to include modern 2500-4500 variants, they would almost compete with the capability of an MD series, while being quite different to drive (e.g. actually having rear suspension and the ability to exceed 60mph)

    and plus, we need (not really) a more modern bruckell/soliad equivalent for each bodystyle of the Nine; the moonhawk covers the coupe, the bastion/legran cover the sedan, the lansdale covers the panel vans, that leaves only a roadster and a pickup! :p

    It would be cool too, or a modern fleet vehicle based on the Explorer or something
