Wow, thanks for all the responses. I have a lot of fun with this game, have been playing it for a while now and each update just gets better and better.

I too am not a big fan of the indicators in the grille, I sort of slapped them on to just give some kind of relation but I'm working on a better setup. I'm gonna go more towards ABM inspired headlights. Will have to go back and update all my cars again but it needs to happen! lol :lol:

Yeah I put the redline right at max power, so the engine does produce 657hp right at 7500 RPM just for the added reliability I guess. I'd like to see the Fleetwood duel the Mongoose on an episode of Top Gear, that'd be an amazing show.

The Mongoose packs 5 extra horses and two turbos over the Fleetwood's 426, and your car is like 6 seconds faster than the Fleetwood around the Airfield.

Re: Aeroline Luxury Designs [UPDATED 12/13/2014]

Introducing the 2015 Aeroline Storm. UPDATED 12/17/2014


Image
The 4.5L 32 valve flatplane V8 makes another appearance in its purist form. Producing 367hp, the Aeroline Storm is a capable sleeper sedan able to pass a 1/4 mile in 13.3 seconds while also maintaining a 23 MPG rating.

Engine stats:
Image


Image
The 4.5 sits in an all AHS steel frame monocoque, which offers the correct amount of stiffness for comfort and dynamic driving. The Storm is spacious, able to seat 5 with ease. The 367hp V8 is linked to a 6 speed, single-clutch sequential transmission and a standard AWD system. ABS, electronic stability, traction control, power steering, and launch control come standard.


Image
With few but effective cooling fixtures, Aeroline designers were able to maintain the streamline styling that's a marque in Aeroline products. Engineers craft the body panels with a lightweight polymer which cuts down on manufacturing cost and production time. The car comes standard with a premium interior with luxurious entertainment. 21" highly polished alloy rims and a functional aero kit complete the package.


Image
Image
Image

Image
Image
($60,000 as shown)


The Aeroline Storm is derived from the Royale concept. While the Storm was designed to be a premium sedan, there was an emphasis on performance as well. The car is capable of 0-60 sprints in 5 seconds or less, and a 1/4 mile pass in 13.3 seconds. With the aero kit providing real downforce, the car is aerodynamically limited to 140mph. The Storm returned a lap time at the Airfiled track at 1'28.8, beating many premium sports cars and sports sedans. Aeroline is happy to reveal that no engineers or testers died in the creation of the Storm! Except one technician was shocked into a coma while working with the car's advanced electronics system, but he was technically a contractor and it was really his own fault. When the chief engineer oversaw the accident, he noted that the technician looked like he had been zapped by lightning and thereafter came up with the name Storm.


The 2015 Aeroline Storm starts at $39,995, with financing available for qualified buyers.

Re: Aeroline Luxury Designs [UPDATED 12/13/2014]

Introducing the 2016 Aeroline Mongoose 4.5 Concept.


Image
The twin-turbocharged, 4.5L 32v flatplane V8 returns. Producing 660hp @ 7700RPM (with 90.3 premium pump gas), Aeroline engineers felt that little to no refinement was needed. However, rumors abound that a 700hp update is in development for the finalized Concept and perhaps production. The 660hp is routed through a 6-speed sequential gearbox which is linked to Aeroline's advanced AWD system. The AHS steel frame provides the correct amount of stiffness for every day and spirited driving, and the car is wrapped in purpose designed polymer body panels to reduce weight and manufacturing costs.

Engine stats:
Image


Image
Major upgrades were made to the Mongoose's front fascia, including the integration of L.E.D lighting fixtures, additional cooling, and refinements to the aerodynamics. This has resulted in a more streamlined car and it helped produce quicker performance numbers. The Mongoose features a premium interior with premium entertainment. Driving aids include power steering, ABS, traction control, and budget detailed advanced safety features. This time around, the car WILL come with 21" inch rims wrapped in street legal semi-slick sports tires.


Image
Image
Image
Image
Image


The Mongoose is aptly named for its super car performance on a premium sports car platform. The car offers unrivaled agility and quicknesss. The power is focused for explosive acceleration. Unlike other models in the Aeroline lineup, this project is centered around performance. With changes to the aerodynamics, the 2016 Aeroline Mongoose 4.5 now produces performance figures that are unheard of for its price point.
Image


Now admittedly the car is slower around Airfield without the wing, but the semi-slicks has picked up the slack and allowed it to return a lap time of 1'16.45. This has lead to speculation about the Mongoose's power output. Engineers say it'll need 80 or more extra horsepower to be a fully fleshed out track car. Currently more testing is being done because Aeroline wants to guarantee that this will be the quickest production car around Airfield. This post will be updated accordingly.
Image


The Mongoose also returned to Nurburgring and returned improved lap times. Testers disclose its latest lap time at 7'38. Aeroline will release more versions of the Mongoose, including a fully fleshed out supercar version aimed at the $200,000 supercar market.
Image


Drive perfection, drive Mongoose. :mrgreen:

That's just the concept car, the production version is going to be RWD to compete with the ZR1. Currently it runs a 7'37 on cheater slicks at Nurb. Long way to go to match the ZR1's 7'19 w/ a 205 top speed and 11.2 1/4... When Chevy does something right, boy do they do it right. lol :lol:

Off topic, but have you ever seen the Corvette C7? I can't stand looking at the tail lights because the two main brakelights and the third brakelight aren't in sync :lol:

I'm just overall not a fan of the C7. Took a while for the C6 to warm up to me, but the C7 is just... trash. LOL. The ZR1 even looks like a kit car to me. Like they slapped on a bunch of aeros and didn't even try for a look or anything. The C7 is just off... there's something about it that's totally out of sync. That's a good way to put the overall styling of the C7... out of sync. :geek:

Yeah I was referencing the C6 ZR1, I should've clarified lol lots of Z models in the Vette line up. Typically its Z51, Z06, and then the ZR1. I'm a huge fan of the Corvette, but the C7 just really turns me off.

Its like an American car trying to be Italian/German in the most offensive way possible. It just doesn't fit the simplicity of past models, its way over complicated with styling queues not really relevant to the Corvette line or even done in a nice, flowing way... "out of sync" sums up my impression of the C7 perfectly.

The ZR1 is a fine car, I'm actually very impressed with it but it just looks tacky with all the added on aeros and the stock blue engine cover, but at lest its all functional and stuff. For $100,000 I'd like to see actual molded pieces not a bunch of bolt on carbon fiber and plastic. And what's with the blue engine cover? Why not Carbon Fiber or at least match it with the color of the car?

Re: Aeroline Luxury Designs [UPDATED 12/21/2014]

Introducing the 2016 Aeroline Force 6.6, by Aeroline Luxury Designs.


The 2016 Aeroline Force 6.6 is a statement, putting all current car companies on notice. When questioned what the theme for the new 2016 Force 6.6 would be, Aeroline CEO simply said "effortless." What resulted from that one word many weeks later is a hyper car so ridiculously over-engineered that it made NASA shy away from the public and hide their multi-billion dollar space probes and rockets fearing the 2016 Aeroline Force 6.6 would make them look inadequate.

Sparing no expense, Aeroline designers and engineers worked tirelessly to create the ultimate automotive experience. Technicians from Lockheed Martin were signed on to design an all new carbon fiber, space frame monocoque as the platform for the new Force. Inspired by the on-going F-35 project, the Boeing techs refined all of the cooling fixtures and aerodynamics for optimum performance. Hidden for centuries in a cave deep in the jungles of Africa, one of our mechanics rolled a 10 ton boulder asunder to reveal an artifact lost for many millennia. Some refer to it as the "Arch of the Covenant" but Aeroline further specifies it as an all-street legal, 6.6L flat-plane twin-turbocharged V8 which produces 2,004HP. The beast was captured to be cloned. The final piece to this puzzle, Aeroline actually travelled back in time to confront Leonardo Da Vinci. After being swooned by a certain lady of the night, Leonardo was finally convinced to design the interior.*

*This may or may not have actually happened. Aeroline will not comment whether Leonardo actually designed the interior or not.

The culmination of all these efforts, all these things, this project... ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the most effortless hyper car to ever exist.
The 2016 Aeroline Force 6.6, by Aeroline Luxury Designs.

Image
As stated the engine is indeed an all-street legal 2,004hp 6.6L flat-plane V8. Not only is this car twice as powerful as the Bugatti Veyron (wrap your mind around that), it's also extremely reliable. This extreme level of power ensures that YOU WILL overtake anything on the road, and do so effortlessly.

Engine stats:
Image


Image
The base platform was completely redesigned. The engine sits in the mid-bay of an all new carbon fiber monocoque frame. The engine sits transverse, linked to an 8-speed double-clutch sequential transmission and an advanced AWD system.


Image
Refined cooling fixtures and aerodynamics provide better performance in dynamic driving. The body panels are all carbon fiber. The interior is painstakingly handcrafted, sparring no expense, with only the most luxurious entertainment options. The handcrafted interior with luxury entertainment is a major upgrade over the previous generations. The 2016 Aeroline Force 6.6 also comes with ALL driving aids at the highest possible quality for maximum stability and performance. Even the safety standards get a slight increase over the past generation.

Even though there were numerous upgrades to the interior, safety, and entertainment features, this has come with no consequence to performance. The 2016 Aeroline Force is actually much quicker and faster than the previous generation with only minimal sacrifices to handling. Now... lets try to comprehend the sheer power of the Aeroline Force.


Testers recently ran the Force 6.6 at Nardo and they recorded some legendary statistics. Below is an image showing the Force 6.6 pulling 1.4 G's off the starting line through 1st gear. It then proceeded to pull 1.3g's from 2nd gear all the way through 4th. At 5th gear, accelerating from 160mph to 190mph the car continues to pull 0.8g all the way through 6th. In 7th gear, the car finally starts to plateau but still pulls a noticeable .5gs up to nearly top speed (which BTW is 300.1mph, compared to last generation's 297mph). To compare this with a real car, the GTR's skidpad is .89g's. That's its maximum potential pull. The Force does that in 5th gear at 160mph. :lol:
Image


Next, the testers took it to Circuit de la Sarthe (sans chicanes) to be tuned. Here they recorded a top speed of nearly 300mph down Mulsanne. The Force 6.6 also returned a staggering 3'29 lap time on R-compound sport tires.
Image


The Force 6.6 returned a pretty standard time for a gran touring car at Airfield. With so much power at the top end, and being so heavy, it surely struggled to complete this course in a decent time. Aeroline tends to revisit Airfield with a more focused version. :twisted:
Image


Performance and luxury blended effortlessly. Competitors and challengers surpassed effortlessly.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------


Introducing the 2016 Aeroline Force 6.6R Concept, by Aeroline Luxury Designs.


UPDATE 1/04/2015: Aeroline Luxury Designs has recently revisited the Force 6.6 and made some changes. They promised a more track focused version and now they deliver a concept model that already has become one of the fastest cars around Airfield and Green Hell. This time engineers tuned almost specifically for Nurburging, over Airfield. The results are decent, but it's said more can be done. Engineers are working tirelessly, but wanted to update its potential buyers and competitors of what's to come...


Image
Image
Image
Image


The Force has gone under very minimal changes. A unique silver chrome paint job helps masks its more subtle changes, but the most obvious addition is the double deck spoiler which adds 500lbs of down force to the rear end. This alone changed a lot of the Force's handling characteristics and allowed engineers to really push the limits. More aeros and more tweaking is needed, but the engineers are determined to achieve a sub-7 minute lap time.

Of course this comes at a few different sacrifices. The handcrafted interior was gutted and a standard one was shoved in its place. All entertainment distractions were removed. The safety technology was upgraded to the highest quality. Engineers are wanting to at least have a premium interior with standard entertainment, so there is still much development left to go here. The 300mph top speed also had to go... with the added down force, the Force is now aerodynamically limited to 250mph but still maintains a 2.3 second sprint to 62mph, and a 8.5 second 1/4 - stats that are still above and beyond the Veyron SS.

Our technicians took this most recent concept model out to Nurburgring and Airfield. This is their results!


Image
Bare in mind that the car had to be weighted down, coming in 300lbs heavier than the regular 6.6 model; 4,000lbs+ in its entirety. It also has maxed safety features and 2,000hp hasn't quite been tamed yet. More aero fixtures and better tuning is still yet to come... but this is still a major improvement over the regular 6.6 model's 1'19 lap itme.


Image
Engineers are looking to make this a sub-7 minute car with a target time around 6'59.99.

Impressive, but effortless in everything except the manufacture! Btw Lockheed Martin build the F35, not Boeing and given the current fiasco surrounding that, you do not want Lockheed as a contractor.

With that much power, id have expected a faster airfield time but I guess all 2000hp cannot be used all the time on a technical track

Re: Aeroline Luxury Designs [UPDATED 12/26/2014]

Holy crap lol, that's like a new level of Veyron. I have never seen anything that Automation calculates total costs exceeding 300k, but that's also because most ultra high performance vehicles don't have super ridiculous levels of luxury trim in the cabin :lol: And the styling, wow! While the squarishness of the rear tail light isn't exactly to my taste, I can certainly appreciate what you were doing and it looks amazing.

I don't think such a car as that is ever well suited to tackling Airfield, nor should it be considered an awfully relevant performance measure. I'd be more interested to know if it gets around 7:30 around Nordschleife. Also those front wheels are giant, though I imagine given it's AWD and how heavy the car is, it's probably necessary.
