The Perfect Car List For a Game
Enough bean sprouts. But I do agree, that's a nice looking car. Modern cars may be all well and good but there's something about going back to classic looks, but with modern engine/perf parts that works really well.

Ascari Ecosse '98
The Ascari Ecosse is a mid-engine sports car produced by Ascari Cars from 1998 to 1999. It was the first production car released by the company and is based on the Ascari FGT.
The production version of the Ecosse was given a BMW V8 powerplant in place of the Chevrolet and Ford units, although this was further tuned by Hartge. The 4.4 liter engine produced around 300 hp, while later larger 4.7 liter units produced around 400 hp. The last three cars were produced with the Hartge 5.0 litre V8 engine, and had an output of 420 hp. The last one was built at Blandford in 2000 with a sequential gearbox and is still in the possession of Ascari.
The spaceframe chassis and wishbone suspension carried a lightweight fibre glass body, weighing 1.250 kg. The Ecosse, with the larger 4.7 litre engine, could accelerate from 0 - 100 km/h in 4.1 seconds while top speed was achieved at 322 km/h. Only 17 were produced, with only nine of these remaining as the others have been destroyed.

Koenigsegg Agera R '13
The Koenigsegg Agera is a mid-engined sports car made by Swedish car manufacturer Koenigsegg as of 2011. It is a successor to the Koenigsegg CCX/CCXR. The name Agera comes from the Swedish verb 'agera' which means "to act” or "to take action".
The Agera R made its debut at the March 2011 Geneva Motor Show. In order to increase the performance aspect of the Agera, Koenigsegg developed a dynamic rear wing. Many supercars use wings that lift automatically at high speeds, but the systems they use to do so are often cumbersome. The wing on the Agera R uses the pressure of the wind created at high speeds to force the wing downward and create wind resistance. The system is not only lighter than conventional hydraulics, but also smarter since it is able to compensate for headwind or tailwinds instantly. The design is thought out so well that even the pylons holding the wing up are useful. They are shaped in a way that helps to extract air from the engine bay towards the rear of the car.
The 2013 version of Agera R premiered at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show. The supercar’s new in-house developed 5.0-liter V8 with twin turbos was the first in the world to use nano-surfaced cylinder sleeves, from ANS, for reduced friction and fuel consumption. A new in-house developed engine management system provided added functionality and ensured that the car met all OBD II regulations.
The engine upgrades allowed the Agera R's 5 litre twin turbocharged engine to produce 1140 hp and the rev limiter has been raised from 7250rpm to 7500rpm. The supercar was also equipped with a new unique Triplex suspension developed in cooperation with Swedish shock manufacturer Öhlins Racing. KES (Koenigsegg Electronic Stability) started to be offered as a standard feature.
0 - 100 km/h in 2.8 sec
0 - 300 km/h in 14.53 sec
300 - 0 km/h in 6.66 sec
0 - 200 mph in 17.68 sec
200 - 0 mph in 7.28 sec
A top speed of approximately 443 km/h
1.6 G – Maximum lateral force on normal road tires (dedicated Michelin SuperSport)
1.2 kg/hp – 2.6 pounds/hp
The Agera is the only Roadster Hypercar with a detachable and stowable hardtop
Curb weight of 1435 kg

Mazda 787B '91
The Mazda 787 and its derivative 787B were Group C sports prototype racing cars built by Mazda for use in the World Sportscar Championship, All Japan Sports Prototype Championship, as well as the 24 Hours of Le Mans from 1990 to 1991. Designed to combine a mixture of the Fédération Internationale du Sport Automobile (FISA) Group C regulations with the International Motor Sports Association (IMSA) GTP regulations, the 787s were the last Wankel rotary-powered racing cars to compete in the World and Japanese championships, using Mazda's R26B engine.
At its heart, the initial design of the 787 was an evolution of the 767 and 767B designs that had been used by Mazda in 1988 and 1989. Many mechanical elements of the 767 were carried over by Nigel Stroud when he designed the 787. Foremost was the replacement of the 767's 13J Wankel rotary engine. In its place, the brand new R26B was installed. The custom-built R26B featured a nearly identical layout and displacement, but included new design elements such as continuously variable intakes and three spark plugs per rotor instead of the 20B's two. This allowed for a maximum power output of 900 hp.
Other modifications made to the 787's design included a relocation of the radiators. Initially placed beside the cockpit on the 767, a new single radiator was integrated into the nose of the 787. Air moved from the blunt nose of the car underneath the bodywork and through the radiator before exiting at the top of the nose. A Gurney flap was affixed to the radiator exit to increase front end downforce. This new radiator location also meant a redesign of the doors of the car, where the old radiator design had been located. The intake in front of the door and exit behind were no longer necessary and were thus not included, giving the 787 a smoother bodywork design on top. To aid in rear engine and brake cooling, intakes were placed on the side bodywork, immediately above the exhaust cooling vents.
Following the 1990 season, Mazda continued development of the 787 chassis in order to make improvements on its pace and reliability. One major development was the intake system for the rotaries. In the past, Mazda had developed variable length telescopic intake runners to optimize engine power and torque for varying rpms. For 1991, the system became continuously variable, rather than previous versions that had steps for different engine ranges. The 787B's onboard ECU controlled the action of the telescopic intake.
Three new 787Bs were built for 1991, while the two existing 787s were also upgraded with the new intakes.

Let's not forget that it also got 1ST place in the only year that it participated.

Rossi SixtySix '10
Built upon the modern 6.0-liter C6 Corvette's chassis, the SixtySix is the work of Rossi Motor Company, based out in Irvine, California. The car's design inspiration is the C2 Corvette, but the underpinnings are all modern, and despite its model name being the SixtySix, there's a split window in the back, which came from the 1963 Corvette. The point isn't to mimic a specific model year, however, but rather to create a unique version of a car that many people love.
Changes to interior are minor but it includes updates to the center console area as well as door accents, shift boots and other minor upgrades.
Under the hood the Rossi SixtySixty has a V8 engine producing 450 HP and 400 ft-lb of torque.

That car's just too heavy, they should've used lightweight parts. It has good looks and a good engine, but not a good weight.
It is a good looking retro Vette. Usually those retro attemtps lead to nothing. But this one has a nice shape.
1600kg sounds like a lot. But for an American it is not a heavyweight.
And a modern day VW Golf weights a similar amount.
