a Subaru SVX?
a Toyota MR2?
a MIT 3000GT?

If they add new cars, I've rather really fast cars. Something like

Bugatti EB110 SS
Jaguar XJ-220
Mc-Laren
Vector
TVR Griffith 500
Donkervoort
...

A Ferrari (or rather 2) and a Lambo, together with a 911 Turbo an the Viper should also be in the
package.

If they wanna add another car like the Warrior, they could perhaps use some real
prototype that never reached the streets, something like a Citeza Moroder or a Audi Avus W12, since
these cars are beautiful and the Warrior really looks shitty.

You are forgetting Bullfrog, who offered an unsupported track editor
for Hi-Octane. Since I don't have Hi-Octane, I don't know if anyone
took them up on their offer.

It's less than a year old. Check out http://www.bullfrog.co.uk/games/hioctane/
As far as I know they don't have any new racing games in development (they're
featured in this month's Edge mag, and it doesn't mention any), but the web
page mentions a forthcoming upgrade to Hi-Octane.

Not true: Stunts had it's own track editor... and that was
made by the same guys I believe...
