Well, there goes my hope of ever getting the 4C. Why do people always vote for the common supercars?

Insert disappointed sigh here…

Yeah, I was really hoping to finally add the 4C to my garage. No luck, I guess.

Seriously? I wanted to recreate Nozomi Kitahara’s 4C. Looks like that’s not happening now.

Guess the same thing will happen if the 2022 BRZ, GR86, 2024 Nismo Z, or 2020 Nismo GTR ever show up in Backstage voting. Just a bunch of people picking flashy cars they already own…

@Keelan
We must be on the same wavelength because I wanted the 4C for the exact same reason!

Also, fun fact—the 2020 Nismo GTR actually did show up in a Backstage vote before. It lost to another car, but I don’t remember which one.

@Pax
You might still have a shot. If the Italian Automotive playlist wins the upcoming vote, the 4C and 8C could come back. They’re letting us vote between past playlists now, so fingers crossed!

I want to believe, but it’s hard when people keep picking the same overused supercars. Also doesn’t help that some gatekeepers hoard rare cars and sell them for ridiculous prices.

@Pax
Who would win?

  • A playlist that added long-requested Italian manufacturers
  • A playlist with a Lamborghini on the cover

The answer is obvious, and it’s painful.

Why aren’t some actual Mustangs allowed in the Mustang Trial? The 2024 Mustang GT and Mustang Dark Horse weren’t eligible.

I thought that was a glitch at first. Wanted to show off my '24 Mustangs too.

Ended up cruising to an easy win in the 2000 SVT Cobra, though. So I guess it worked out.
