yeeep ive found it... dont know if its been posted before tho :P

http://www.3000gtspyder.com/sp ... spyder_files/interior.jpg

its a Mitsubishi 3000GT

I suppose it's close enough to the XRT, if the guages were in the right places:

However, the XRT dashboard really needs an overhaul in my opinion.

I think Eric drives one, so that might explain why...

@shiny_red_cobra: Close? Look at the textures... Every button in the same shape on the same place as the 3000GT...

that Mitsubishi's dash is like XRT in a big way

i noticed this the other day wore lumping around on a little dealership, looked at the inside of the car and died of shock!:scared:

wow.. glad you noticed after we found out so many years ago smurfen

My guess is that it belongs to the AC / Heater

It's clear what has happened here. Mitsubishi interior designers travelled back in time, after seeing the XR GT and XR GT Turbo, and copied it almost exactly. Tricky those guys are, indeed.

Seeing that pic makes something painfully obvious, though. None of the cars in LFS have an actual 3D handbrake!

You mean... forward in time?

OK guys, look up Mitsubishi Starion

Thats what the XR GT Turbo is.

The interior is modeled after the Stealth's interior

I wonder why he didn't just use the Starion's interior, its not hard to get pictures.

When my dad first saw the XRT the other day he said it looked like the starion

You do realize the Stealth and the 3000GT are the same car, don't you?

And here is the 1st with 3000gt!! ?

Quote from boosterfire :

I'd really like to know what people hope actually posting this thing in the general forums. I mean, we've known all this for years, if you want to actually start a useful topic, look for something nobody has ever heard about! On these forums, there must be about 50 topics about "zomg, it looks like a Starion": we got it, please stop

Not everybody has been here for years. Old for some, new for others. Such posting isn't going to stop any time soon, old hands should be getting used to it by now.

I think we need a sticky or something, with all of the cars and what they and there interiors are modeled after.

This way new people won't be posting things like:

"Did you know the XRT is modeled after the Starion?"
or
"Is the XRT modeled after a 944?"

I know that I personaly thaught it was modeled somewhat after the 944 when I first started playing.
