    as you did the Iconic Mclaren MP4-13, could you please please add the MP4-26 and 27 to this list ? As this is my All time favorite car Lewis Hamilton drove, also its the most beautiful car ever in F1,

    As AMS2 is such a enjoyable sim it would make it a perfect combo for me to race my fav sim with my favo car and also in real life to use the Mclaren MP4/26 Steering wheel as i build an nice replica wheel.

    hope you understand where my wish comes from,

    kind regards
    Wesley
    p.s. Will upload pictures of my wheel later but it is an Amalgam model.

    Dear Reiza,

    instead of doing the MP4-26 and 27, please do the AMG 300 SEL 6.8 from the late 1960s/early 1970s. It's my all time favourite race car, because it's just such a weird concept to take a luxury sedan and build it into a race car that actually did well.

    It would be the perfect combo for me to race my favourite car in my favourite sim. Oh and the model is already there.

    I'd rather have MY favourite car in the sim then somebody else's ;)

    Best Regards,
    Gevatter.

    :D

    Dear Reiza,
    instead of doing the MP4-26 and 27 and the old AMG 300 SEL 6.8, please do the extremely nice Porsche 935 as prepared by Stuttgart Porsche Brasil:

    Dear Reiza,

    Instead of doing the MP4-26 and 27 and the old AMG 300 SEL 6.8, or the extremely nice Porsche 935 as prepared by Stuttgart Porsche Brasil, please make a hackney carriage and a map of London that covers Heathrow Airport, Biggin Hill and Elstree, complete with appropriate AI vehicles and pedestrians, so I can practice my hotlapping in a suiting environment.

    Ugly???
    It's not ugly, it's terrible!
    But it's a very unique car and if you lift off the cover you'll get a 911. Such a car, this was only once

    You're not missing anything, this was very much tounge in cheek :) That being said, the AMG 300 SEL really is my favourite race car and I actually would like to have it in AMS2.

    Agree, this really would be great.
    A car, designed for 'better people', converted to a race car, would be a fine thing. And it would also fit to the upcoming Nurburgring (with historic??) content:).

    Cough, splutter

    (and yes, I know there was a 930-based 935 prototype before this one, but this is the one I see as 'the original' - if they managed this though, I'd hope to see contemporaries like the BMW CSL/320, Zakspeed Escort and Chevy Monza)

    And Spa actually, where at the 24 hours race in 1969 all three AMG works entries ate their tires after only three laps and had to retire :D

    Oh but it then won seven of eight sprint races and 1st in class and 2nd overall at the 24h of Spa in '71 :) They ran an automatic gearbox in '71 btw, so the whole thing is even weirder.

    The 935/78 'Moby****' :
    845hp, 785Nm, 1025kg, 366kph, hmmmmm.... delicious
    A good competitor against BMW M1 (and Renault Alpine and many others)

    Why is D I C K marked with ****? OK, now i know.
    The car's nickname was "MobbyD i c k" like the sperm whale from the book "Moby-**** or the Whale" form Herman Melville from 1851

    It's not a yoke!?
    I'm not english, so I didn't understand it first. But dictionary helped....and that's why the short explanation.
    I forgot,it was called by this nickname (MobyD I C K) because of it's long, round, big and white shape -- I hope that everybody is understanding a white sperm whale and nothing else:)

    Yeah, it's funny and the more that I didn't check it first, was just wondering why all these **** when writing these 4 letters independenly if with Mobby in front or '' or some other contructions. But with spacebar it worked:)
    Haha, I'm a human and much smarter than any AI:D

    Luckily "the AI" seems to be American, otherwise we couldn't talk about cockpits. :D

    OK, that's something I've never thought about, but without -pits- ...
    So far as good for now, please let's go back to topic.
    Although I'dont know the content of the upcoming DLC 'historic tracks' but a LM race car like MobbyD I C K or Renault Alpine will be great, especially for historic Spa, Nurburgring, Interlagos, BuenosAires(?),...
