My Matra Djet for GT Legend will be adapted on NFS HS later. Don't worry. It will follow the Volvo P1800 and the Ferrari 250 SWB.

The Multipla is very good, with 1294 hp and a top speed of 290 km/h.

and about the Peugeots ....   someone ?

Fortunately it did not go into production... Peugeot design wasn't great in the early 2000's but this is the pinnacle of ugly... like a SLR ordered on "Wish"    ...Google the "blobfish" and you know why  !

I agreed with that until the day I saw it in real life and it struck me as a modern 275 GTB. But seriously, you are German, so I imagine that sensitivity when it comes to cars is something you are familiar with. I'm French with a distinctly Latin temperament and we are talking about a French car.

So "the pinnacle of ugly" .....  Do you want me to release it before the Bora ?

 

The Bora looks absolutely fantastic. I am very happy that you are building this car. We can't have enough 70's "supercars" and this one has never been made for a racing game. Although I have to admit that for me it looks a lot better without the late-model air-intake on the front hood. Maybe you should consider it an :OT-part again

You're right. Furthermore, this air intake is inconsistent with the indicator repeaters and consumes polygons unnecessarily.

Goodness me that was fast! Excellent work Butch! The Maserati Bora looks wonderful!

I know the next one is the Ghibli, but after that......I vote for the Peugeot Proxima.

I still have to create the dashboard of the Bora and the second part of the X-Files team's project which removes the top. 

As it's been a long time since the previous concept car, I was thinking of slipping a Peugeot in between the two Maseratis: the Proxima (in red) or the 907 (in black).
If anyone has an opinion or preference on this, now is the place to express it.

it's progressing

The CSR Classic Group 4 Bora has already been converted to Assetto Corsa, GT Legend, GTA... Its polycount is modest, and I prefer to leave it to converters.

I also think it's a Pandora's box. The Ghibli, the Mangusta, the Aston V8, the Stratos, the Daytona, the A310...  could also be adapted into racing versions.
Looking back, I think the Miura SVR was one too many in my collection. The Jota was a concept car, a unique model like the Boomerang, the Bravo, and a broken dream with a vision like the M6B GT, or the AC A98 coupé, Marcos XP mantis.




The following ...

To reduce the size of these rims will pay off. You can make decent 3D wheels with 300 triangles.

Without seeing the internal mesh, it's difficult to know what can be saved in the :OC part, but in my experience, going below 8000 triangles seems perfectly feasible without a significant loss of quality.

Alternatively, to save a lot of space on textures, the two-pixel color gradient technique (thank you Madman) can save a significant amount of space.

See Matra p29 concept.

Thank you everyone.

That's not good, that's seriously very good. An highly accurate model.

The easiest way to reduce polycount is to simplify rims.

Maserati bora: work started.

I find it very amusing, but I don't know when I could fit her into an already long list, as long as the one I've already created.

Everyone, thank you for comments.

1) I think Giugiaro (senior) is the best designer of all time.
2) I created the TZ2, which uses the same mechanics and 17 unique models like this Canguro.
3) Bloom is one of the few modders I admire (from scratch).


So what could I possibly think of this Canguro?     

It's missing from this site, in both NFS3 and NFS4 versions.

With a trident as its logo, the metaphor seemed obvious. 

I've always liked your merak.

The serious upgrade of the Alfa Romeo TZ2 is on its way, and the Maserati Bora is on the anvil.

Spectre -> I confess that I am very busy at the start of this year. In addition, the dashboards for the TZ2 at the beginning of January and for the project with the X-Files team at the moment are taking up a lot of my time.

Herms -> Some of these cars have never been modelled in games.
