The emissions are enough for this van to single-handedly make a hole in the ozone :lol:

this car isn't made for racing, nor going fast,
this car is made for driving relaxed on a lonely road, we made it convertible because you can enjoy wind in your air. we put the engine in the back for the best driving experience and bit oversteer too

this car is very customizable.

Re: how about some "open Source" cars? (explanation in threa

the... uhh... what car company manufactured the BBC again? and what does the BBC in it even mean? oh well, we discovered this car has been mass produced and we decided to tune it :lol: just stop by your local Galt certified Dealership with $4500 and we will put on a nice little tune for you

exteriorwise the car has received no changes except for the badging (how much more generic can you get by not adding any badging?) to have the GSR label on it (g stands for galt with the additional letters using Galt's naming system to identify the type of modification applied, in this case, a tuned version of the stock engine). the list of changes include a lower, more sportier suspension, carbuerrater swap, and most importantly, a turbocharger. the transmission now sprouts a 5th gear along with tuning applied to the other four gears. the total top speed has been raised up to 121 MPH with a trade off to fuel economy, but considering the car scored only 20 MPG's stock it is obvious that efficiency wasn't it's goal, it's hard to even really determine what it's goal was originially, it drank fuel, was underpowered, was somewhat slow, etc, but now we brought it up to standards for the family sport premium market
edit: oops forgot the .zip

you should be able to leave the automation/exports folder open and just rename the zip before you click the export button for another trim, the only way to do it is one trim at a time unfortunately, you should make a suggestion though for export all trims... in fact select the model (none of the trims) and click export, see what vehicles you get

Re: how about some "open Source" cars? (explanation in threa

actually i just tried it, select the model and it does export all trims, it never did that with me before, but yeah you can export all trims, just export the model

Tally ho, chaps! Have you ever wished you had more spare shillings for ale and pipe tobacco? As a proud owner of a GSI Mole, you'll find yourself more able to afford the finer things in life. With this elegant yet economical automobile you say to the world, "I'm not poor, I'm a sophisticated gentleman of limited means." Huzzah!

Fact: Four cylinders are for wussies and socialists. Embrace masculinity and freedom with the GSI Apollo. Horseshoe mustache not included.

Swapping the impossibly inefficient 2.5 liter four cylinder for a merely archaic 2.0 results in both improved performance and fuel economy while still maintaining the ability to run on goat urine. The ladder frame and solid axle are retained for their utility and offroad capabilities, but the leaf springs are ditched for coils and the transmission sprouts a fourth gear. Wider tires, fade free brakes and revised suspension tuning vastly improve sportiness and driving pleasure. Outside, the car receives a minor facelift as well as a luxurious new coat of hearing aid beige. Best of all, overall production costs are even lower than before. After retesting the new version, Marxist Motors concluded it to be "now better than a Trabant, but still not as good as a Wartburg." Great success!
