I would like this thread to be dedicated to sharing sports sedans that the community have made. Here is one of mine:

The 2015 Tucsun Estrata.

"Powered by a 4L Direct Injection V8 Producing 525HP Tucsun's New Sports Sedan Is No Slouch, But Still Remarkably Gets 21 Miles To The Gallon."

My new marketing line^^^

This was my half-hearted attempt at a Mercury Marauder remake:

I was much more precise with the engine:

I also made a stroker version which would have been produced, had the 5.4L engine fit underneath the cowls on the production model.

The only difference was that I used the 4 valve DOHC configuration from the actual 4.6L so that I could keep the same family in the game. The actual motor would have only been a 2 valve SOHC motor.

Why should you put central fuel injection on a modular engine, they all had multi point?

I think I was messing around with intakes trying to match the HP and torque numbers. I don't know why I left that on there. I built the 5.4L first because of the need to have the largest family displacement and I think I just neglected to pay attention to some of the tweaks I made on the 4.6L. I'll go mess around with that some more. I started working on the pushrod V8s after this so I think this was just an oversight on my part.

I tried some different tuning and played with the exhaust to get the motor back to a more accurate representation.
