    I noticed the last gif isn't showing one of the colors as it should. The frame after the standard Black & White is supposed to be a Royal Blue with White. But after testing a preview in the ilive reader, the results are closer to how they should be.

    And i'm really happy with the results I am getting from the whitewalls included!

    They are whitewalls, I added an all black rim to them. But I suppose I can mess with the contrast to make them stand out when I get home.

    I know it's tough to put on whitewalls to a modern car. There aren't any new cars that look good in a full whitewall like a 40's Cadillac. Thinner ones if done right can look good; a Cadillac from 2004 doesn't look too bad in them even for a convertible in this photo!

    Come to think of it, that car was only built for that region in mind wasn't it? Either that or Austin, TX.

    Yay! Good to see you come clattering to a Simtropolis near us, too. *:)

    Needless to say, that car looks fantastic once again.

    I'm aiming to release the normal Impala by the weekend. I just need to make sure the SD versions work then whip up a cover photo.

    @Finnbhennach- Thanks! I admit I like the style of that generation for Impala. It almost reminds me of Skylines

    I've started a new project that will be yet another vehicle. I'm not giving away too many details as of yet but the modelling is coming together. This plate should be a small clue; any guesses as to what it may be?

    Oh,very exotic and exiting.I remember the Vector (or better,different Models from the Carmaker Vector were on Posters in many Kidsrooms)

    Sadly they had to fight a mixed Image of fascinating but unreliable which was not very Fair because they actually could be the most reliable Exotic Cars ever made...if you know how to care of them.

    I think Andrew Agassi once said to the Owner of Vector: If you can build me a Car that won't explode when I drive it out of the Garage I will buy it.

    This car looks like a Lamborghini Countach went at it with a Cizeta Moroder and the result had a birth defect. Loads of 1980's cool!

    @T Wrecks, @tigerbuilder, @AsimPika3172- Thank you! :D Progress is coming well; a new update is coming soon.

    @Hotwheeler- Spot on! The Vector was put into a numbers disadvantage as well. Only 20 are known to be built with even fewer upgraded builds existing. Meanwhile there is an industrial sector east of Sacramento which includes several auto dismantlers; one of which is full of burned out Ferrari's and Maseratis

    @Thin White Duke- Lol! Since this was late 80's, it had to involve coke getting snorted off the spoiler!

    Modelling and textures are complete. I went with five colors- the factory original options and the only yellow ever made.

    @DavidDHetzel- Not to worry, I was about to mix them up too! :P

    Early on I was wondering why the side intakes weren't matching when there were only 20 of them built? Then I realized Vector made a few different cars! Gran Turismo 2 is saving me here, since they show all the ones made by Vector and nice 3D views to show the details for each one. Thankfully I don't have to spend over 400k credits in South City!
