What are you looking forward to with cars?

I'm sure some modder will make us some gorgeous sports cars, remember Fresh Prince?

I would love to have any types of cars in it to be honest. Maybe a transportation system like buses for school and also for those who can't afford cars.
Driver's education would be nice as well like they did in the Sims 3.
But I would like to have an open world where you don't have to load each time when you go to a new lot in the same world. That would be a major advantage when adding cars to Sims 4.

Guys, sorry to disappoint you but usable driveable cars are impossible due to game engine
Maybe we can kiss and woohoo in them yes but unfortunately the main feature (driving) is impossible..
They'll have to reprogram the engine so the moving decor cars in the background can be removed and replaced them with real usable cars..
You think EA would do that for us? Lol

Driveways. Ability to build garages and use garage doors. Our laundry can be set up in there ...

If that's the case why were they mentioned in numourous surveys and why did a simguru ask for suggestions if they do bring them back?

Sims in the game currently are terrible drivers. They always run through me in their cars. I'm not sure how cars would be used since we just teleport to places anyways. If there was a way we can drive them around it would be cool though. Maybe be able to color and design them like cats and dogs.

Because they meant it like a garage GP, you can fix and rev car engine like in sims 2 freetime and we'll have interactive cars parked IN LOTS but they probably won't be usable on roads.

One of the surveys mentioned a Sims Grand Canyon location your sims could drive to. Other vehicles like bikes and motorcycles were also mentioned in a survey for TS4.

Well you know it'd be nice if they actually made a door opening animation lol

I have a feeling that Guru who asked for kind of cars people would like to see was for the FX cars in coming worlds and for those parked in parking lots when they were making BB. If you notice there a some new ones in the parking lots.

As for the early surveys - those were not made by Maxis but by EA's marketing even before the game came out.
