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

After being declared "worst car ever, ever" by Marxist Motors magazine, GSI engineers stepped forward with the objective of making the Galt Communitasia slightly less terrible. 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!

here is a 1992 trim of the courtner, it now has a smaller turbo I4 versus the N/A V6, performance isn't too different though, yet the I4 gets 6 more MPG's and cuts the emissions nearly in halfImage

Glad that you do.

Some people say quality is more important than quantity. When you slide behind the wheel of a GSI Monarch Brougham, you'll realize those people are idiots. Immerse yourself in acres of crushed velour and simulated wood. Feel the soothing thrum of pistons the size of coffee cans. Watch as pedestrians flee in terror at your approach. This is luxury, the Gasmean way.

Your Miami-based "import-export" business is booming, time to upgrade your ride to something more befitting a man of your reputation. Imagine yourself cruising down Ocean Drive in style with a fabulous new GSI Inferno. Groove to your Michael Jackson tapes while your buxom passenger utilizes the mirrored glovebox door. Laugh heartily as bright pink tourists choke on your tire smoke. Evade business rivals as they empty Mac 10s in your general direction. The world is yours!

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

finally got my pc back, and i made this car, mainly as a test of the new graphics and of how well i can design a car so i didn't focus on too much else, but might as well post it here, see what you guys can do with it:

My new Hypercar company called Ultimate Road Vehicles. I've been working the past few weeks on it, slowly, and as you can read on the bottom, it's all open and free! Free as in freedom, as they say. :p

Enjoy it, guys!

just to bump the thread a bit i made a car in under 3 mins, it's obvious it was hastily thrown together with spare parts

Mamma Mia! Straight from GSI's southern Fruinia division comes the Juliet, an affordable sport sedan with genuine racing pedigree. And by racing pedigree, we mean you'll spend every weekend adjusting finicky carburetors and hunting down fuel leaks.

well i do suppose you can make suggestions here, and while the body, the nose is a bit long to be truly considered a van, it still meets the criteria, i may work on it a bit more later since i had to kinda stop for now, so the economy can be tweaked a bit still

i quite like how it turned out, guess my car design skills are finally improving

ah ok, i'll use the 1960's van then probably, anything specific you want for it other than the requirements for the pro touring tour requirements?

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

ok this is one idea i had for the van, and quoting off of what you said in the PTT thread
a world wide trip
i made sure it was capable of running on goat urine. economy suffers a lot from this but it has plenty of power to be able to carry around tools/fuel/a wrecked car at the same time. also since the van itself is from the year 1960 you know they didn't care about fuel economy, and being able to run off anything will assist it in certain areas of the globe, but if you don't mind it using at least regular unleaded and want more economy let me know, i still have a few ideas
now here is the galt V1:

it's the best i could get for economy while running goat urine in 1960, this is just one idea i have though, another idea is a 1970 model of this, same body but different engine, and more economical, but i mean hey, least you have power and a transmission capable of providing all the power at a lower speed making it good for towing wrecks off the track
