Thanks for finding that out
I just read Carrol don't want his '67 GT500 called a Eleanor because someone else owns the name 
I think the GT500 in the game is a beauty the way it is
I'm very happy with what we did get, it sounds awesome and handles great. I wish I could take pictures in game

1. Carrol Shelby is dead so he don't care anymore.
2. CG could of easily & legally made the GT500 look exactly like Eleanor. You can't trademark/own rights to the way vehicles look. If that was the case all car brands would be suing each other constantly.
Now learn how to multiquote, god. It carries over from page to page & even from thread to thread. USE IT, click the damn button while you read posts & when you get to the end hit post to see ALL THE QUOTES!
You're a bad troll. Just stop posting unless it has some value.

Nope, I am right. What happened with HP2 sealed the deal on EA's & Ferrari's relationship. We haven't seen 1, count them, Ferrari in an EA game since High Stakes. (besides for Shift but that was because of Xbox's big big wallet) Car Customization has nothing to do with it. High Stakes had a little, GT5 has a little, Forza has it & Ferrari didn't car with those games. Oh, TDU2 has nothing to do with EA so why bring it up?

It's my understanding that it goes beyond the inclusion of customization or tuning because Ferrari in other recent games has allowed for (minimal) customization or tuning on their cars. Like Honda, it may even be their need to protect their image even in the gaming industry; and it is their right to do so. That said, though only EA and Ferrari knows what's really going on, it's almost safe to assume that Ferrari no longer wants to do business with them.
I miss Ferrari, yes, but it's been so long and NFS clearly can succeed without them. So I don't see it as that big of a deal.

Ferrari is the only car brand that I know who gets pissy about their cars in a game. Many other way way way higher brands couldn't give two ***** that their cars are being jumped 500 yards into a wall falling down crumpled. Ferrari has & will always be the biggest overrated brand on the market.

Well someone cares because the '67 GT500 has no emblems and in the movie she had emblems on the dash,between the tail lights and the fenders, but not the grill. The '70 Charger R/T has emblems on the grill but nowhere else. The '77 Pontiac Firebird T/A doesn't have the Trans Am vinals like it should
Well somethings going on over at CG but what? or did the progammer get lazy? all the other cars are perfect except those 3?

Speaking of Shelby why the car is so slow! Both it and Trans Am have the same top speed in stats but Trans Am can go up to 176mph but GT500 can only 156mph, and plus slow acceleration not many people drive it, the Charger is now as common as Veyron

I know old muscle cars where not fast, but I'm talking about a game, arcade game at that not real life. It's just seems like people tend to pick the fastest cars in this game, nobody drives the cars they like, they drive whats fastest. Most of them are real assholes that will take you out without thinking twice, and if you drive slow cars you pretty much screwed in a race. So they should had give those cars at least some boost with the upgrades.

Long Gears usually boost the lower cars a lot more then the higher cars. It's true with most of the mods. I think the GT500 & Trans Am might be near 200 with Long gears. I never tested this tho.
Anyway, screw this game on weekends. It suffers from the same thing as COD does on weekends. Kids & all the assholes who work to much during the week to play. I got shunted to oblivion 5 TIMES in one race in less than a minute because 6 out of the 8 were douche bags that deserve long dragged out painful deaths.

I have logged over 100 hours on this game and it's gonna take another 10-15 hours to finish the rest of the races for the rest of the cars (besides the Deluxe DLC cars).

Its just a matter of finding a decent lobby to play in. If I'm lucky, I find a lobby with people who are competitive (rarely), or I find a lobby with people who can't drive cars properly and I end up beating their Venom's with a Carrera (frequently).

Dammit. My game froze as I tried to join a friend in multiplayer. Now I'm back to the start! WHAT THE 🤬!
Sucks. No backup?

Always let the console sit a couple minutes if the game freezes while saving. Doing so may save your file. MW froze while saving/loading countless times for me & I just walked away for a bit, came back & restart the system with save file intact. The game may be frozen but I think it still saves so instantly restarting nukes your file.

Long gears give Shelby 174, and 201 Trans Am, but it takes forever to get there. In a more technical race with more turns I can beat most people but on races with straight roads I'm toasted even if I switch gears mid race.Long Gears usually boost the lower cars a lot more then the higher cars.

Yes sometimes I can get hit before the race stars, usually some idiot that drives to the meetup last, then I respawn and... boom some dummy behind me hits me, by then the top guy is far away, sometimes I manage to catch up if I'm in 911gt2, I always have my sweet revenge set up to speed hunter (30secs of nitro) so I can blow past these morons.
The best method to avoid collisions is to look behind you, if you see on the map that someone is closing in very fast look behind, then just second before they are about to hit you turn left or right (depends from which side they are approaching) and hit brakes. They usually hit a wall, if not they slow down and there's your chance to hit gas and take those bastards out.
As for Firehound427 freezing issue... it happens, sometimes I loose data even after waiting few seconds after the crash. Good thing I always backup my data. If someone cares for online only though, the status is saved on EA servers or something so the online progress is intact.

If CG reveals one more DLC pack what cars should be in it?
I say...
Gumpert Apollo
Tesla Model S
Jaguar XJ220
Jeep SRT-8
and the Blacklist car is the McLaren P1.
