  1. Oh, no. He's a fan of GRID? At least he admits TDU2's physics are stand alone from GRID. Phew. -Leadfoot
  2. So a modded Gallardo, then? :cheeky: Spoiler looks like it's from a Gallardo GT3, personally. Also, is that a Caterham or Donkervoort behind the R8 and Gallardo? -Leadfoot
  3. Is this the one featured in the LED Traffic Light screens? -Leadfoot
  4. Facepalm :cheeky: -Leadfoot
  5. A supercar competes in a market; a hypercar doesn't. The Ferrari 458 is a supercar. It is battling with the Lamorghini Gallardo, Aston DBS, McLaren MP4-12C and more not just for sales, but for more sales. The supercar is what makes money for exotic manufacturers, at least for the most part. However, for many of these companies, a hypercar is probably a smart move business wise because it draws attention. You don't need to make that many of them (77, in the case of the Aston One-77, and even as low as 20 for Lamborghini's Reventon), but you do need to make the posters and get people talking. People don't really walk into a Lamborghini dealership for the Gallardo - they walk in because the Murcielago, and the Diablo, Countach, and Miura before it, were so insane, so radical, and had such unbelievable visuals, that they have to have a Lamborghini. So they buy the Gallardo. From what I've noticed, the supercars are, in most cases, the actual business part of an exotic company; priced competitively, with similar performance to its competitors. Hypercars are the price-no-object hype cars, made to draw attention to the brand so people will buy more supercars. -Leadfoot
  6. Nice work! I'll definitely download this when I have a chance. Shame about the weather being private - would be great for movies (and CoD-style chase-cruises :D ). -Leadfoot
  7. Nice find! Thanks for highlighting the new bits. :) So, customization is still OEM. Should be no issue. I would like to see how they're doing the new car option lists, though. :) -Leadfoot
  8. That's what we've been trying to do for three years. Take a look around. :( Djey has found a way to increase traffic density in certain areas and has done so with patches 1.67 and 1.68, but he found TDU "physically" doesn't support having too many cars loaded at once. -Leadfoot
  9. Very well-done shots! :thumbsup: -Leadfoot
  10. Just checked your offline police shots from above - very cool! :) IDEA INSPIRED BY PICS: If we have enough people when filming stuff, we could probably have a Crown Victoria roadblock and the Dodge Charger as the main good-guy pursuer. -Leadfoot
  11. That "expensive new" thing could just mean a newly-bought car. So, a D-Type that the character just bought, for example. ;) Or, yes, it could be a concept. -Leadfoot
  12. All those Astons... :drool: -Leadfoot
  13. Love the E-Class pics (especially this one). -Leadfoot
  14. Voted Aston007. Thanks everyone who voted for mine! :) -Leadfoot
  15. Sounds cool. :) Make 'em bright! -Leadfoot
  16. Nice! I'm still waiting for my permit. :( Lucky you've got a 308CC. I'll be driving my parents' Civic and Subaru Legacy. Enjoy your newfound freedom! -Leadfoot
  17. *Looks nervously at Ryzza* I'll think I'll start parking in corners now... :cheeky: -Leadfoot
  18. Yeah, their old factory. Was where the Italian Job chase was filmed (the old one). There were some other buildings that had one over the years, but the Fiat one's the classic. -Leadfoot
  19. Yay, another Jalopnik reader! Yeah, this does look cool. Would be great for a walking-and-driving combo zone. :) -Leadfoot
  20. Saw that local RUF RGT Cabriolet (yes, RUF never made a cabrio of the RGT - two people in the US got them converted, and one happens to visit my town on occasion). Need to get a phone with a camera... -Leadfoot
  21. Oh, wow! Definitely will be listening to that again. :D Love how it went over the camera's volume threshold. :cheeky: -Leadfoot
  22. I can back that up. It's a pretty good game - was released quietly, but it is actually quite fun. :) I had my doubts at first, but once I started playing it, it was my main game for almost a month. And it's a confidence-booster if you know what the cars are really supposed to be. :cheeky: -Leadfoot
  23. Why do I feel that this is the next big step to the world turning into 1984? -Leadfoot
  24. "Pounds are what you call for dollars... or, er, other money." "Speak [with]special nicknames, like that film..." (at honk) "Shut up, I'm tryin' to get out of the way!" Very LOL. :) Still watching... -Leadfoot
  25. Best "crap game" review ever. :D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2waRtZFQr4 -Leadfoot
