Ahh... yes. It was a Typo. "zc12.exe" it is indeed. Sorry!
Marcel Hennersdorf made some really cool cars in the beginning of NFS4-modding. very lowpoly, the normals a little rough and the textures a little blurry but the proportions are always very good. You should check them out. If you look for "exe" in Pete's archive you will find almost all his cars - along with the ones by Bloom and CPD

Another car I lost in my files. Does anyone still have it?

That is the Zonda by Marcel Hennersdorf. It's available at Pete's archive:

You have to search for the name: "CZ12.exe" - Don't worry that it is a self installing exe-file... It's some kind of Marcel's trademark as all of his cars are packed this way. You can open it like a zip-file with 7zip

Interesting decision to remake your Alfa Romeo TZ2 as it is already a very well made car of your "Mark III" era.
I would have placed my bet on one of your old "Mark II" era cars like the Maserati Ghibli or the Chevrolet Corvette C3 but I am always happy when you release a new car so I don't mind 
I can't say I am awaiting that aweful Matra P29 very much but atleast it's an interesting concept car that has never been made for any racing game at all and it will make someone happy here in this forum. Keep up that amazing work. You are keeping my favorite game alive. Thank you!

YAY! Finally something new for everyones 80's collection. I love 80's cars It already look very good!

Wow... So I am right back from my summer vacation and there are two wonderful Aston Martin cars and a Bluesmobile (one of my favorite movies of all times!!!    ) to test, collect and love - here on this site. This really makes my soooo happy! Thank you for all your hard work building cars of my childhood dreams that are not available for any other computer game except NFS4 because of you. They might be "just" virtual data for a 25 year old game but they are much more than that. they are some kind of a model car collection that doesn't need any physical space and they are something special to keep the game alive that accompanies my life for these last 25 years. ...And reading these heartwarming words does make me feel even better! 

It feels sooooo good that you are still improving this old editor soooo much. Track editing really gets more and more easy with all these new functions. Thank you for this.

But if I could make ONE wish for a later release it would be the possibility of an "Incremental Save" funktion... Some sort of "autosave" that saves a new copy of your track automaticly every 20 minutes in an extra folder or something like that. A backup-funktion so you don't loose too much progress when you messed it up. T3ed already saves temporary "*.tmp" files of your track all the time but you are not able to use them as a backup right now. Maybe this funktion could make me continue with track editing as I still haven't touched T3ed for more than a year now after my tragic loss of a lot of work.

The steering wheel, the car radio (alpine), the button next to the clock and the mirrors are planned, and there are still a few bugs with the polygons.

The purpose of this is to give some news.

Right-hand drive, the 6cyl version and the V8 vantage are for you (I'm talking about the handful of members who seem to be a bit interested in my cars). For my part, I'd settle for the left-hand drive DBS V8.

Ohhhh... So we can't have both cars of James Bond and Lord Brett Sinclair? That would be a pitty. But if you are building an interior for left AND right hand driving anyway... What about giving us both versions for all three cars? Something like you would do with a car with your X-files-team?!?

What made you decide to put those racing style mirrors on the car? I didn't find pic's of that option.

It also looks better on the A pillar, like on the V8.

George Lazenby's James Bond car in "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" had the mirrors exactly that way... Butch recreated the movie car 101% accurate
I looooove it!

@ Butch: Wow.. I was a second too late
I really like your need for accuracy. This car is soooo beautiful! ...My wish was only to have it right hand drive to pretend it is a Bond car... But now we get the real deal 

@ noise: If you don't like these kind of mirrors: The other version with the V8 engine will be the car from "The Persuaders" with stock mirrors

WOW! It looks amazing! I am totally in love. And it seems like it is only missing a nice Aston-Martin emblem on front and rear to be ready for the road.

But ONE "issue" triggers me as hell: You show us this masterpiece in the correct colour to be Roger Moore's car in "The Persuaders"... And you know that he used this car in a metallic olive green shade with Talbot mirrors on both front fenders (:OC-Part?!? ) as James Bond in "On Her Majesty's Secret Service"...
So... PLEEEEEAAAASE make it a right hand drive! Please please... 

[complete and (almost) 100% working backup-site of NFSCars]

...Well... some kind of. So... Sorry for the clickbait

Because it seems like there are still some people around here that havn't read the news already:
A guy from Estonia named Herman Õunapuu made a complete and (almost) 100% working backup-site of NFSCars!!!

The only downsides are that the forums are not working anymore (don't mind as they were already deserted before and we still have NFSaddons)
and that the backup is from march 2021 so every addons from later times are lost. The good news: every upload till this date is working fine and the layout of the site got preserved completely.
So... keep on exploring old stuff that seemed lost from there again

Here is the link for your bookmarks again:

I really like that random picture feature! It gives always some fresh vibes for showing something you may have forgotten or you have never seen like that bespoken white car... It's made with the "AIDA"-principle: Attention > Interrest > Desire > Action! If you like what you see, you have to click it immidiately

@noise: I am pretty sure that the car you are looking for is a "fantasy" car made by Rider66 for NFS3. It's called '68 Courcheval Manta and is a remake of a car from the game Interstate76 what resembles a Corvette C3. You can find it here:

https://www.nfsaddons.com/downloads/nfshp/cars/other/8537/other-68-courcheval-manta.html

YES!!! I like to see a remake of your Aston Martin DBS! And hopefully we get the V8, too! 

Great news! Although I am not really that much in the "Police cars game"... We don't want to lose any more precious NFS sites!

Bravo! ...I mean.. the bravo!  It looks amazing. And: YAY! visible bodylines all over! I love it. The only thing to criticise this time are the rims: the 5 holes are too big and the rim beds are not deep enough. especially at the rearwheel it is MUCH (!!!) too little bed. Look at yout pictures of the real deal

@noise: I am pretty sure Butch means the car... Just look at the latest Jaguar concept car... this electric brick. It must be indias late revenge for all the years of colonial oppression. Absolutely disgusting :/

Begun? It seems like it's almost finished already 
It looks fantastic!
