BADNED's signature hints for TDU2 vehicles.

[CLR-GTR]

So, as we now have somebody on the forum who likes to give out clues about cars of TDU2, I thought it would be a good idea to put them in their own thread. That way we keep the Unofficial Carlist reserved for confirmations by screenshots, trailers and other sources, which are quite straight forward. The signature clues however can point to several cars.

 

Basically there are two rules:

 

1. This is no request topic. This topic is only for guessing what cars hide behind the signatures of BADNED. Requesting cars goes in here.

2. This list should NOT be used as a list with confirmed cars. That list is here.

 

So, share your ideas of what it can be, preferably by saying why car X matches to clue Y. I'll put them in here, with a maximum of two cars per hint. Hints are listed, earliest first, newest last.

 

Cars most suggested sofar:

 

Hints to cars not in TDU2, comparing with the official carlist released on December 20th.

A Rally Legend. - 1985 Audi Quattro or 1973 Lancia Stratos HF. The Audi is one of the most famous Group B cars and the ''founder'' of AWD rallying. The Stratos is one of the most radical and futuristic styled rally cars and a true classic.

Escalade. - 2007 Cadillac Escalade. It's the most simple guess, and as SUV's and lifestyle are in, this car fits to it.

Red Sow. - 1967 Mercedes 300SEL 6.8 AMG. Red Sow was the nickname of this car. The 6.3 streetversion is where modern 63's get their 6.3/63 badge from.

Martini and three! - 1972 Lancia Stratos or 2010 Aston Martin Rapide. Lancia Stratos won three championships, the Rapide can carry martini-drinking Bond and 3 passengers.

43,655 - 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT-8. Dodge Challenger SRT-8 costs MSRP $43,655.

Long nose, high wing. Who am I? - 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona / Plymouth Superbird or 2010 Mercedes SLS AMG Coupe. Daytona and Superbird are known for the long nose-addons and the ridiculous high wings. SLS has wingdoors, and a nose of about 6, 7 feet long.

unforgettable - Lamborghini Diablo or Lamborghini Murcielago. Both are the flagships of Lamborghini and have spawned many different versions, from simple looks to almost an entirely new vehicle such as the Reventon.

 

Hints to cars confirmed to be in TDU2.

We Sixteen. - 2004 Bugatti Veyron or 2004 Chrysler ME 4-12. Veyron has a W16 engine, Me plural is we, Four + Twelve = sixteen.

4 Xtreme Xperimentation. - 2009 Ferrari 599XX or 2005 Ferrari FXX. 599XX as it's four characters (F599) plus two X's. FXX because Four Xtreme Xperimentation = F X X.

ML63 AMG - 2006 Mercedes ML63 AMG. Sofar the only ML63 AMG in existance is made by Merc, and AMG has only tuned Mercs (not counting in that Mitsubishi sedan).

Ressurection - 2010 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Most logical one, most talked-about resurrection of the last few years.

 

Cars confirmed to be ingame:

Bugatti 16.4 Veyron

Ferrari 599 GTO (streetversion of the 599 XX racecar)

Ferrari FXX

Mercedes ML63 AMG

Mercedes SLS AMG

Subaru Impreza WRX STi (Note though this car is confirmed to NOT be the Rally Legend car, that car is older than the Impreza)

 

 

Notes:

- Again, don't see this as official or as a guideline in any way, it's just some sort of Guess that Car! competition.

- The green has no meaning. It doesn't mean it's confirmed or anything. It's just to show you that was the signature hint.

Martini and three! -

 

Martini could be Porsche or Lancia.

[Sponge]

Aye, possibly a Delta Integrale or Stratos. IIRC, the Fords once had a martini livery?

[t.]

The Delta has been known for a while now. (I believe that was "A rally legend").

 

Not to be a twat, but did this really need it's own topic?

[CobraDBlade]

For the Martini and Three!, were there any cars with Martini livery that got either a 1-2-3 finish or had 3 consecutive championships/tourney wins?

[ScoobSTi]

We Sixteen could be a Chrysler MeFourTwelve. It doesn't have to be the engine. Me plural is we. Four + twelve = sixteen.

[Rodrighazzo]

martini and three was speculated to be the astion martin vapide

[Eudemon]

Not to be a twat, but did this really need it's own topic?

Not really but it's usually a good source of hints of things to come and can be a fun little game to decipher.

[Streak115]

Martini and three could be the Lancia Stratos considering that it won the World Rally Championship three times, 1974, 1975, and 1976 and also Lancia used the martini which would be confirmation of two cars. The first being the Stratos, and the second being the confirmed by pictures Delta Integrale.

[2010rrsupercharged]

well ,ML63 AMG sure was a suddle hint

[CLR-GTR]

@tWm.: as I stated in the first post, when somebody said Rally Legend could be a Delta or an Audi Quattro, BADNED replied both were not bad, but not right either, so I assume it's not a Delta.

 

@Mr Spongie: yes Ford had those liveries too:

 

[Eudemon]

I thought B actually said it was about the Delta unless he never confirmed it. Hmm.......................................................... hmm. :umm:

[CLR-GTR]

Here you can see it. He quotes rather precise so I don't think it's a Delta:

[Mb]

Delta is confirmed in pics indeed.

The Delta is confirmed. There are pictures of it on this very forum, from a German magazine iirc. Once those pictures arose the "Rally Legend" signature was changed.

[HOAX]

Could also be Subaru Impreza, Citroën C4, Ford RS200, Toyota Celica GT-Four, Metro 6R4 or Mini Cooper (which was actually designed for Group 2/B rally).

[Who]

Badned says Xteme Xperimentation was 'too easy' :(

 

we know it's not the KTM-Xbow or the MG X-Power... hmmmm...

 

BMW X series of some kind? the X6 is that weird crossover thing, which is supposed to be a 4x4 with sports car handling

[CLR-GTR]

The X5M also has sportscar handling.

 

The X6 is an X5 that goes through an additional assemblystation in which 3 fat Bavarians will sit on top of the 5th door. Nothing experimental about that. SsangYong used the same principle, yet with locals instead of Bavarians. German cars need to keep their own quality.

 

@tWm.: I still don't think it's a Delta. Partly cuz of that post, partly as he kept his Red Sow signature on for a week while I showed the corresponding car on day 1.

 

I recently came up with another 4XX car. Ye you see that correctly: Ferrari FXX. I don't have any clue what's experimentational about it, but it's an extreme Enzo, and why else would BADNED start the words with the X's, instead of just the e's?

 

Any thoughts on that?

[Eudemon]

That's very clever thinking on the FXX actually.

 

F599XX could be also as 4 chars + XX.

[ScoobSTi]

Are you serious with the Rapide explanation? :fp:

 

Glad to see that ML63. Downloaded the mod for GTA:SA once and it was pretty cool.

[CLR-GTR]

The Rapide explanation was from Leadfoot :p

 

http://forum.turboduck.net/showpost.php?p=313359&postcount=316

 

You can still say what yóu think it should be. I've seen Lancia and this Rapide come by, there were hardly any posts about the WRC Focus or replies on my guess of the Porsche 908 and two 917's.

[CLR-GTR]

Latest signature: 43655.

 

Any guesses? I tried MRSP prices, and I know the CC8S has 655bhp...

[T1M]

Was that the number hidden in one of the pictures on tdu2.com?

 

Maybe it's something to do with the cost of your first car.

[Ibn Rushd]

The actual production name for the 599XX isn't F599XX, it's 599XX...it doesn't have the F moniker on it...

 

Except: It could be F141XX, which is the 599XX. So it's still possible. (Syntax I know, but still).

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrari_599_GTB_Fiorano

 

 

And you tried MSRP Prices where? Did you try Euros as well? The currency and car prices may change when you shift islands..meaning we may need to check prices for both places, North America and Europe. (US and Spain more like)
