Tuning isn't just about raw power, or aesthetics; it's about both. The ability to get the most out of your vehicle for your benefit and to suit your uniqueness. And just because there are alot of "US market cars" have you checked to see where EA is located? What cars THEY would see around their offices and homes? I doubt Seat Leons and such would be anywhere on the list...I think the addition of the 206 in NFS:U was a nod in the European market's direction...but not a required one. So I'm thankful for what cars were included (despite the absence of my favorite car of all time) and I look forward to U2's garage...

Methinks they should've had the good Euro Focus RS instead of the crap one they have, the RS looks much nicer and goes faster stock.

An FD3S RX7 would've been nice, but if the 2-rotor Rex is already the fastest ingame the 3-rotor FD3S would tear up the pavement :shock:

The RX in NFSU is an FD. Its the twin rotor 13b REW engined one. The triple rotor one you mentioned (20b) was originally designed for another mazda, and was never made as an engine for the FD (even though many conversions have been done to both FD and FC 7's.) The 13b was also designed for the same mazda as the 20b, but was later used in the 3rd generation 7's we all know and love :)

Both engines were originally designed for this car, believe it or not

I would really love to see a Renault of any kind... The new megane looks great. Or maybe Clio... But there are really small chances for these cars to appear in the game :(

Say what you think about this m8: if at the end of the game you unlock the Veilside Supra (my dream car), it wasn't really beautiful (and fast)? Say what you think about this

240SX, best drift car in the world, no arguments please.
AE86. 'Nuff said.
(even if S13s were the best drifters in the world, 180SX would be better)
Civic coupe, swap it for the EJ coupe, or EK hatch.
Agreed.
Golf R32, shiznit.
It beats the GTI pretty easily.
Z4, good car...if your a hairdresser...
M3 would be better.

And I'm stupid at counting rotors. 13b and 20b are both badass engines, and the humble FD and FD3S* are both great cars to stick em in. Mazda needs to bolt 2 Renesises together and make a double badass 4-rotor, 6.0l RX8 (twin tubro preferably).

*FD implies North American RX7, FD3S implies JDM version.

I would give my testicles to own the Ferrai F40
Well, I'm glad that tastes differ :D

The orignal F40 is still a beauty, and if you where talking about that one I would agree with you.

But Hamann turned it to some semi bling bling (my opinion) machine destroying everything which made the car beautifull.

It looks like an over weighted lady now. Again thats my opinion

...Stig you don't know what you're talking about...please don't say such nonsenses...return talking about serious things! :wink:
Rixan... I knew you would react.... it's call Italian National Pride!

But I do know what Im talking about!
I worked for a few years for Toyota as a salesadvisor and traded in several Italian cars (alfa and FIAT) and it's a simple fact that these cars that keep their value really good...
Maybe it's difirent in Italie, but here in Holland it is. and not only if you trade it in at a Toyota dealer but at all brands.

about the rust take that as a JOKE! but certain Alfa's tend to rust pretty easy.... also a FACT! like the Exaust... it will get rust spots within a year.
could as well be because our rainy weater.... who knows

What?? It is more logical to have an Escalade in nfsu2 than a Ferrari F40. You cannot tune a F40, you would turn it worse!

I still stand by my original statement.

In all fairness, so can putting on a brisk walk.

Definitely

Your entitled to your opinion, even if it is wrong.

?
The rear hatch doesn't count as a door, so indeed it's a 4-door.

Note the 2 doors on either side.

In Europe, it counts (if the hatch is opened to the interior of the car) So there are cars with 2, 3, 4, and 5 doors.

:D I would like to see a 307, renault clio, maybe a chevrolet corsa...a 306 will be great for me
I still want an special mode...that allows you to unlock or buy new cars...some of them as not important as all the others in the game...or unlock cars like ferraris, porsches, lamborghinis and tune them.

@eclipse45: yeah, I know the evo is a 4 doors too, I wanted to mean that the lancer in the game is only a common 4 doors. I hope this time I've explained (my english s**ks unfortunely)

2,3,4or 5 doors...whatever you want, I hope there will be only good cars :D
