Dilessi isn´t dead yet. I´m still working on my ‘Concetto 1000’ that was supposed to be released this year. After all those game updates i had to update the car over and over again. But as the stats are now fine and quite realistic, i´m just working on the design.
But next to it i revised some cars and also finished some new ones. So let´s start.
Let´s start with the ‘new’ 336. I won´t delete the old pics to this car in this thread, but it never looked good to me. The car stats stayed nearly the same, also i tried to keep the optics. But i used a different model and also fixed some parts to make the car look more realistic. In the end that is much more of what i thought of the car should look like.

The next one is the A1512 GTP. I still had that F1-like engine from the 60s and i wanted to fit it in a car that really deserves that engine.
1965 Dilessi 516R A1512 GTP
1965 - 516R ‘A1512 GTP’ - Priceless / approx. value in 1965: $350.000
Description
After Dilessi built the show car 516 Monoposto Concetto, they´ve decided to make a Le Mans Prototyp with the same engine. The Result was stunning and as the 516R was much lighter than the 516, the car was able to be 7 seconds faster at the test track. Also the topspeed, 319 km/h, was way better than the Porsche 906.

The next one is the latest Premium Sports Car of Dilessi. It´s based on the 516, but with many fixes and new optics.
1980-1985 Dilessi 578
1980 - Dilessi 578 ‘SE Violento’ $54.500 / 114.800DM / 47.482.800₤ITL
Description
The 578 gained a lot of length compared to its predecessor and a complete new monocoque. Also Dilessi worked on the reliabilty and even the car gained a lot of weight, it has better stats. Thus results by a bigger engine and about 70 hp and over 100 Nm more. But even the top speed is now much higher and above 300 km/h, the sprint from 0-100 km/h is slower compared to the 542.
The only color option will be Blu Notte.

And last but not least the first Budget Sports Car. It can be compared to something like the Porsche 944.

1981 - Dilessi 555 ‘Fazzoletto’ $19.500 / 41.050DM / 16.990.000₤ITL
Description
The 555 is the first Budget Sports Car from Dilessi. Even the car has only 143 hp and a little over 1t weight, it´s still a sports car. The 555 can go from 0 to 100 km/h in under 10 seconds and has a top speed of over 230 km/h. At the same time the car costs only about a third of the big brother, the 578, and so Dilessi was able to sell much more cars.

1987 - Dilessi 555 ‘Fazzoletto GTV’ $21.900 / 46.100DM / 19.100.000₤ITL
Description
The facelift of the 555 is just minimal, mostly just some parts changed it´s color. The big difference is under the hood. Dilessi had to adjust the engine from 98 RON to 95 RON and managed at the same time to gain about 20 hp. At the same time Dilessi figured out to make the car more drivable, feel more sport, comfy, safe and even more reliable. But unfurtonately the car is a bit heavier and needs a little bit more fuel.

PS: I know that are a little bit much cars, but hey, i didn´t posted for nearly 2 years. In the meantime much more cars are ready to release … 11 models and much more specification up to the year 2000. I just need to fix some details as one of the last updates messed up the wheels, gearings and some fixtures.
PPS: Who can i ask to get the right to make a … let´s say 100k character post? I want to keep the opening post as clean as possible, but i reached the maximum of 32k quite often and changed text to pictures. But now there isn´t much more to change to pics.
