Ok the title is a lie, just the first car that I have posted myself and I'm quite proud of it
Behold! A 2020 (Yeah I'm sorry but i like the year lol) with quality sliders set to 0 all around Mini that leaves the same size smart cars in its dust!
First of all here's the engine that I know you all want to know how/what I managed to cram into this thing.

And now the cars stats and track times.

Let me know what you guys think :)

I LOVE using small displacement v8s. It's a quirky niche that most users here don't use outside of trying to get the jump on the competition in highly restricted races. Truth be told, a larger displacement i4 would probably actually perform better in terms of overall power, economy, costs etc. but bugger that, I'm here for the boooooooooooooscht :lol:

Yeah but idk if you have tried to make a mini but, with this freaking engine bay your literately have no room for anything longer, like that engine is as big as you can fit.
And you cant fit anything at all if you go mount the engine longitudinal . Ah well I just can't wait for V6s, easily going to be the most compact engine so that will be fun to play around with +Then I can remake my cars engine and figure out the torque curve on it :P

That's true. I'm impressed you even made anything AWD with that body!

It has quite good stats for a first public car. I personally dont like the looks, but they are subjective anyway whereas numbers can be compared directly. you have done well to get good numbers without quality sliders. It will give a bloody nose to some cars costing much more.
Well done!

Thanks for all the support guys :)
And at utopian yeah I know its ugly lol, function before form for me :P

Edit:
Somehow I completely forgot about how the McPherson Strut gives more engine bay room.. Time to see what else i could fit in this thing ;)
