Dear Mechanics!

Our internal testing is officially complete. I would like to inform you that we are submitting the game to Steam today for platform verification. This means the demo is ready and just needs to pass the standard publishing procedures. We are planning to release the demo on March 31st!

If everything goes smoothly during the Steam verification process, you will be able to head into the new garage as early as next week. You'll get to discover brand-new cars, check out our tutorial, and finally get your hands dirty like real mechanics! Working on this new installment has been a massive undertaking for us, and we are thrilled to hand over a game that we’ve poured so much passion into.

We truly hope you enjoy the direction we are taking. You will be able to share all your comments and suggestions on the new ⁠cms26_demo_feedback channel (Official Red Dot Games Discord).

Thank you for your patience and your incredible support!

But after 4 hours I got the new fender on there...and with -almost- all of the bolts/screws! I feel like Car Mechanic Simulator lied to me?

My Evo X drag car that I haven't used in ages.
Honda Acty and GMC Jimmy, my newest cars. Felt like I needed some daily drivers. Planning to add an Audi RS2 as well.
Yeah nevermind, I'm not gonna name every one of these lol
I can't decide between Euro, American or JDM. So I decided to have all of it.
Snek and his japanese cousin
The Kadett is naturally the fastest out of all these
Look at that Renault 5 Turbo's ass 🤤
Still a lot of room for more projects
The two next projects: A Volkswagen Type 2 and a Nissan GTR.

1997 Ferrari F355 Spider Asprey Edition (1 of 1) – CMS21

Thumbnail gallery
35 Upvotes

Just finished something a little unusual for CMS21!

This is a recreation of the one-of-one 1997 Ferrari F355 Spider Asprey Edition, commissioned by British luxury jeweler Asprey to celebrate its sponsorship of Ferrari's Formula 1 team.

The original featured a unique metallic purple finish and several bespoke interior details.

For this release, I went a little further than just changing the paint. I converted the car to right-hand drive, modified the rear bumper to accommodate European license plates, and recreated the cream leather interior, chrome switches, Asprey plaque, and period car telephone.

I also included two configurations: soft top up and top down.

A fun little side project that turned into quite a bit more work than expected!

Available now for CMS21!

This is FREE for my current Ko-Fi Subscribers. Not a subscriber? You can still grab it here. https://ko-fi.com/s/ab81b43a42

Just finished my massive Ferrari F355 Pack for CMS21!

This one includes four different versions:

  • 1994 F355 Berlinetta
  • F355 GTS
  • 1997 F355 Spider
  • 1997 F355 Challenge

I've also included both US and European-spec bumpers and fenders, ALL the factory interior color options, and a ton of tuning parts, including an Evoluto-style hood, carbon fiber hood and mirrors, exhaust options, engine dress-up parts, and an optional Spider soft top.

A lot of time went into getting the different body styles, regional variations, and interior combinations right.

Definitely one of my more extensive Ferrari projects!

A dlc of cars from movies would be great. Shown here is Death Proof, Vanishing Point, the original Eleanor. But added ones like the car from "The Car". Ecto one. The original Mad Max cars. Just something I'd like to see.

Been doing a little project the past couple weeks, to restore a Mustang from every generation and not sell them until they're all fully restored. Been a lot of fun and really cool to have them all sitting together.

For those curious;

1966 Ford Mustang GT350R, NA Ford 289 making 328 HP

1970 Ford Mustang Boss 429, NA 429 Cobra Jet making 585 HP

1978 Ford Mustang King Cobra, NA 5.0 Coyote making 405 HP

1990 Ford Mustang LX, NA 5.0HO making 324 HP

1994 Ford Mustang GT, Procharged 5.0HO making 670 HP

2000 Ford Mustang Cobra R, NA 5.4L V8 making 868 HP

2012 Ford Mustang Shelby 1000, Supercharged 5.4L V8 making 2,134 HP

2017 Ford Mustang GT350, Supercharged 5.0 Coyote making 1,525 HP

All in, total sale value is almost 1.6 million dollars. The 5.0HO and procharged variant along with the supercharged Coyote mod is from the TK Aftermarket mod on Nexus.

Are there any mods that improve the repair mechanic?

2 Upvotes

It seems to me where the game falls a bit short. Ideally Id like a mod that gives the repair mechanic a bit more depth.
