I'm only on race 81 though.

Race 81, and that's the best style you can come up with? I'll try to remember and get some screenies of the cars that I've had.

NFS:U sucks. The only good thing about it is the online mode. If you want a real import/tuning game get Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3 it is fully tunable and also its highway racing. Over 200 Cars and 600 Rivals. Excelent Replay Value.

Actually the worst part is online mode. Everyone has a damn infinite NO2 hack, and EA does nothing about it.
Actually, the games are completely different styles. Tokyo Xtreme Racer is all about unorganized (event wise) street racing on the highways, while NFS:U is about organized race events on city streets, and more bling than you can shake a stick at. They are both very good games for what they are, but they aren't real competition for each other. I've played some version of Tokyo Xtreme Racer and like it, but it wasn't for PC and NFS:U is, so...

Oh I agree but I'm just saying TXR3 is better. I know they are different. I have spent countless hours on GameFAQs explaining the differences of them. I just prefer TXR3 to NFS:U. NFS:U is a great game when you need a laugh or two, and it is arcade so you can pick it up and play.

I'm gonna go buy nfs:u and then I'll get the tokyo racing game when I save up more money, I've just played NFS:U a few times so It'd be a better buy for me

Well, I don't like horribly flashy cars, and I don't like any of the uniques, except that blue/silver wavy one, but everyone uses it. So yeah, mine stays simple. I'm thinking of switching to skyline though... who knows.

It doesn't have to be horribly flashy, but at least give it a level 2 paint job. That level 1 orange color looks like crap.

Nu! When do I get lvl 3 paint? I thought I already received it, but all it does is show me the paints, still locked though... eh. I usually stop playing after I come up to a 5-6 lap race... fuckers are now hard to catch up to if I mess up.

You have to select one of them and act like you're going to use it, then it asks if you want to pay to unlock level x paints. Once you pay, they all get unlocked (as in switch colors all you want for free), so definately do it. Also, level 2 gives you metalics (click left or right by "gloss paint"), and level 3 gives you perlescant (think chemeleon). I made a pic of the various cars and styles I've had in underground mode and the cars I use for quick race, but I didn't have my CD-RW, so I'll probably post it tomorrow.

I switched to the skyline, and then switched the an eclipse, since it has basically the same stats (one less acceleration), I switched the colors, I g2g to school, I'll post it later.

Eh, I missed the bus, I can't seem to beat race 86, I need a controller...

It's either this...

No answer? I wanna see your cars WW, out of curiosity that is... I'm stuck on race 86 :(

WTF? I wrote a detailed response...where'd it go. It went something allong the lines of:
I'd use the second one, but I'd paint the vinal a light cyan-blue color to compliment the paint job and tint the windows green to match the ground effects.

As for the pictures, it seems I managed to take home an empty CD-RW case last night... this time I'll try to remember to check that the CD is in the case before putting it in my bag.

Eh, how's this? http://www.computerproblems.org/eddie/NFS/NFS-22.jpg

That's nice. Sorta reminds me of my RX-7 style. I have to say, though, that I don't like the spoiler . . . fuck "style points"; of the spoilers available to me, I think the stock spoiler looks best on the eclipse, though that is a highly subjective subject; I'm sure there are plenty that would say the one you chose looks better.

As you'll hopefully see tommorow, the styles I create are kind of...busy. I like a lot of coverage, but I don't just blindly pile on vinal. Here's a quick 5 minute trackball drawing of one of my styles.

Yeah, I don't like the spoiler nor the unique rims I picked on accident, I'm just waiting for lvl 3 spoilers... Do you know where the save file goes? Is there a way that a friend can give me his saved game and I just start it up?

Here's that pic
 

The save data is in {user profiles folder}\all users\application data\nfs underground or somesuch.

The top 6 pics are my underground mode cars (follow the arrows); the bottom 3 are quick race mode cars I use.

I only like the rx7 and the 240sx, I should try adding more vynal layers...

Which 240?
