While these are I’m sure valid questions, it’s a bit late for rule changes isn’t it? We have already had the fuel rules changed and there is only about five days left as it is.
I do however think something like a BMW 4 series gran coupe or Mercedes-Benz CLS would be quite fitting in the “sporty but practical” sense
4/5 door coupes are not legal, we figured that would be implied by specifying that you’re only allowed to use 2-door “sedans”, and the fact that coupe’s basically always refer to a car with 2 doors. Shooting brakes are also not legal for this challenge, as they would fall under not being classified as a “coupe” by the game.
We explicitly put things like the ingame billet steel and semi slicks under race parts because that’s what we would consider race parts/non suitable parts for this challenge. (Remember when a bunch of people, including you got binned in CTB for the use of billet cranks, which were considered race parts? That’s what we’re trying to prevent.) Those parts wouldn’t even be suitable for a sensible production car challenge anyway, so we just decided to ban them for simplicity.
I mean I suppose, although the vibe we were going for here was the “livable base model of a hardcore sports car”/“baby-gt” sort of cars. Could always be a next time tho
Yeah I think it’s pretty safe to say that with the vast majority of votes, we will be giving y’all a 4-day extension to complete your entries, meaning the deadline is now 2/8/2026 at 16:00 UTC!

Throughout French motoring history, Larroque has always been seen as the more ‘sensible’ alternative to the extremely quirky and strange Veloux cars until 2026, when Larroque had a sudden shift, moving towards a more unique and quintessentially French design style with the ‘Renaissance’ coupe.
Underneath it has some special tricks aswell. The 2.5 V6 propels the Renaissance from 0 - 60 in under 7 Seconds, eventually reaching a top speed of 160MPH.
And as a bonus, the cupholders are large enough to double as Baguette holders when required.
Regardless of public opinion on the Renaissance’s unique design, it certainly accomplishes its main goal, make a Larroque as, if not more, eye catching than a Veloux.
