We expect to see this at E3...the latest triumph by the team that brought
Porsche Unleashed:

Need For Speed 6: Trabant Unwashed.

Features:
Revamped physics model accurately depicts the complete lack of traction and
excessive body roll!
Outstanding 3D***pit- something this barren never looked this good!
Full instrumentation- Speedometer AND fuel gauge.
Blistering speeds- tackle the track at up to 70 KPH!
Special effects galore- realistic hazy blue exhaust! You can SEE the orange
peel in the paint!
Learn the ins and outs of Trabant repair as you strive to keep it running!
New sound engine delivers the unique sound of 2 cylinders at full song!
Drive every Trabant ever made- the blue one, the white one, the green one,
and yes, even the orange one!(Yellow and Black Trabants will be available
for download soon after release)
Wait in realistic lines to wash your pride and joy monthly!

You tamed Stuttgart's best- now see if you have what it takes to live with
the Trabant.

ARRRGHHH!!! Another ARCADE!

The Trabi's do not have a fuel gauge!! The De Luxe model has a stick in the
fuel tank, so you can go out, raise the "hood", pull the stick, and see how
much you've got left. No gauge.

Agh, noooo, not another ARCADE!! Waaaah!

LOL!!!!  What next... NFS7: Edsel Unused.  Strive to keep it from rusting
apart as it sits unused in the empty lot next door, and see how low it can
drive your property values!!!! =)

actually, after owning for some time a 1960 austin cambridge (3000 some odd
pounds and less than 50 horsepower) I wonder if a trabant would really be
all that bad.....

C'm on guy,

a Trabant Sim would not need a physics model, but a 'stinkics' model to be a
true sim. As long as my compy does not support a 'smelling card', I will not
play it... and if it would support one, well... I don't think I would even
try a demo...

hehe...Need For Speed 9 - Old British Sports Cars Overheating!

Gain upgrades by reaching checkpoints before boiling over! The Desert
Circuit is an extremely difficult challange as you climb from sea level to
4000 feet in a $300.00 1961 MGA.<g>

And for the advanced level, you'll have to do the same in the Twin Cam
engined model :-)
