Welcome and good luck! Looking forward to seeing your entry!
Thanks! The way I’m interpreting your car request here: A “typical” car for someone on a budget. Something we’d recommend to someone besides ourselves (because we’re car fans), but we want something that if that person actually bought it, we’d not hear them bitching about how crappy the car was. I thought about the little Suzuki cars back in the day immediately. Reliable little 2-door runabouts, everyone and their dog loved them. So anyway, before I post, are little “SUV’s” applicable?
Thats a great way to think about it! Although the people probably should complain about the car being slightly crappy. Little SUV things are allowed, i might slightly change the rules just to say that because i hadn’t thought of that, meanwhile i built one myself lmao. Btw, putting a little sprinkling of sportiness and a bit of fun into the cars is also something that probably will make you do well, especially since performance is not the real focus of this “challenge”.
Sweet! Yeah I like this little box I’m making. Far cry from the super-slick track burners I’ve been making. OK I’m going to figure out how to submit it here shortly
Oh, that might be a problem due to you being a new user. We’ll see though
Good point. Well, I managed to make a cute little runabout for 17000 on the nose (before profit), and it even has AWD!. Its running the Automation track now…might be a while lol
Edit -
Alright here’s my first shot at this…(allowed only one pic…trying to make it a good one…)
Not horrible, IMO.
You guys have epic backstories for your vehicles, I’m going to give this a shot too.
Before you is the FMC (Floyd Motor Co.) Field Mouse, all-new for ‘86, a bitchin’ year. This creation boasts the newest all-aluminum YME (You’ll Make it Eventually) SOHC 2.0L in FMC’s lineup. With 105 HP and a stump-pulling 110lbs/ft of torque, the Field Mouse can dash about town with ease. A capable AWD system (50/50 split for safety), a 4 speed manual transmission, 2+2 seating, cassette, a sunroof, and tons of cargo room for its class with an upright body. The Field Mouse is ultra-light at only 2300lbs, so it makes good use of the available power. The Field Mouse runs circles around other cars in its class, and let’s you keep your “cheese” in your wallet, with a low starting price of 17,000. Shown here in Metallic Electric Blue.
Edit: Been driving it in Beam and MAN I LOVE THIS THING! It isn’t “fast”, but it is a hoot to drive with traffic. I think its faster in Beam than Automation says it is, because the little thing just scoots.
Dude, that’s like a Niva and a Pajero Mini had a baby and I love it.
Damn, i have to remember to post my own cars too because i have 2 that are already done.
Remember to send in the .car file or beamng file!
Vizmo? No. Its another lazy rebadge!
Meet the Mars Vision Super 1400 Turbo, the European version of a Japanese car which is superior to the North American model.
It may look fast, but its not that fast. Its a great runabout for the man with a girlfriend and dog, as it only has 2 seats to be “sporty”.
It does 0-100 in 9.9 seconds, and handled relatively well which made it popular for rally racing.
Budget it was! It only costed 18000 Euros, and it showed. Not great interior, low quality paint and cheap wheels. It worked though, becoming one of the most popular models, as the others were known for being slow and boring (Apart from the GTI).
It uses a Carburated Turbocharged 1.4 liter engine producing around 95 horsepower.
But hey, even if its slow it has personality! The personality of a chad.
NOTE: These pics were painful to make my laptop cant do this without like 5 fps.
To you directly, or via another method?
You can do it either on discord, personally message me on the forum (if you can), or if it allows basically nothing so far i suggest posting a google drive link, and if that cant work a google docs link with a google drive link in it publically.
I attempted to message you directly but the anticipated buttons do not exist for me (on your avatar), so I just loaded the file to my drive https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GgrxWrmOKqkTpo6_Gr6-09ouB3Tk9YFK/view?usp=sharing
Give it some time for an admin to verify you. I joined last month and it took about a day or so.
And that was our first round, went pretty well! We had 3 succesful races, with “great” competition!
In all seriousness, we love the cars you send in and not one car is unchad!
Lol “Bumper car bronco…” I snortled at that. It totally works for the Mouse.
Everyone mis-spells my name
Very nice work
Sorry for misspelling, you can blame me! I fixed it
Hi everyone, round 2 is later today so you still have some time to enter your cars if you want to so it shows up in todays stream.
