Look at the screenshots. The car used as a model in the menu resembels a lot to the Mitsubishi Eclipse found in NFS:U. Does that mean that we will have the same car as in NFS:U? I would certainly love it cause it is beautifully open to tuning!

how could you possibly tell that that is an elcips?
i dont think that, that car is an actual car mate i think its just a base modle car. and i doubt they will be dropping the eclipes its one of the most popular cars, they be stupid to not include it!

I think there will be the 20 same cars + 10 new more but im not sure. New Eclipse is ugly, I hope it will be the old at NFSu2

well, I thought it was a random car made to look like some coupe that's tuned up. And the lights make it look similar to the eclipse. Of course it's wrong to assume IT IS an eclpse, hence the Eclpipse will be in the game. But I can see the resemblance, and know why you felt it looks similar.

and it's not your name is Abrams
uh mashall why would you change the engine of a IS300 with a supra engine if you already have a straight 6 3.0ltr Toyota engine in it.... ???

For future refernce to all users, topics such as this should be put in with other NFSU2 topics, there is far too many racking up all with seperate topics that deal with the same thing. Please try to cut down on this, it helps us out alot.

Theyre the same type of engine, but the 2JZ GTE is much better to tune, and holds more power stock

I also find it strange. Swapping the lexus engine for an older unit from Supra... oh well, guess when you got more money than you know what to do with, you can do whatever you want. For example put in 4 Honda V5 Motorcycle engines

It really depends on how much power youre wanting. If you were wanting an extremely high horsepower car, the best two engines you could use would be the skyline or supra engine. (But as its toyota the supra engine would be most logical). The reason for this is the engines are both rugged, and can handle high horsepowers on stock internals. Many people put the supra engine in their cars, the most succesful one being 'project supra seven', an RX7 with a 1000bhp supra engine.

What a monster...
By the way, am I the only one that noticed that on the menu 'eclipse' for scissor doors, theres a butterfly bonnet symbol next to it?

Very nice RX-7 man....
And btw i guess EA should release decided car list....they did same in NFSU1 they released it 3-4 month before game was out..

I only know that the RX-7 = gona be replaced with the RX-8 and that the lancer = gona be replaced with a lancer evo VIII

nope, grez, you're not the only one! It looks like the hood will be opening up in a wierd 'box' way. if you saw that on real tuned cars, show us!...
One tunig mod will be nice to the hood - make it open up like it's on E34 BMW and some other older cars. I like it that way a lot.

what?
RX8 will be replacement for RX-7?
I dont think so......i think RX8 will be like Skyline(you get it at last races)....
and about Lancer and Lancer EVO thats good...
