lol Thats what Im waiting for. Only one I didnt like much was that Skyline 350 4dr thing… its a damn maxima :facepalm Also the game adds gay hood pins with the color matched carbon hood, not feeling that

Did the online dealership FGT change color yet? It was a yellow one…

It must have because I have the blackandyellowblackandyelloblackandyellow one now. The black and white one looked good that I had in there.

I don’t like the hood pins either. The stock IROCZ is a blast with no traction control, it slides so nice and is very under powered. So fun.

People like me who spend way too many credits on retarded cars lol.

I think I’m going to make a room around 6:00PM tonight called “Shift518” or “Shift518freerun” on the Nurburgring Nordschlief just for screwing around and maybe an occasional quick 1 or 2 lap race.

There will be no traction control and a HP limit of about 1300 to keep the X1s out lol. Join if you want, its just for fun.

I’ve been having more fun in the stock IROC than the fully modded flat black one. It’s so slow and such a pile it’s fun to drive.

Switch it up with cars, I don’t care what you drive lol.

If someone could send me a Ferrari F1 car, preferably the F2010, I would be very thankful. I just need it for the new Bonus race series and then I’ll send it back. I, of course, will send you something sweet in return if you decide to let me keep it.
