What are you looking forward to with cars?

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

Oh be still my fluttering heart...YES! I do remember Fresh Prince. The at one point I wondered why he never made my favorite (at that time) car, the Dodge Neon, haha. Yes indeed, I most certainly remember :)

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

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?

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.

Did you read the survey?

Get behind the wheel of different vehicles including cars, trucks, and motorcycles. Fix up old cars, build a hotrod, or jump in your ride and explore a number of unique tourist destinations... another part of the survey says... Your Sims can now choose from a wide variety of vehicles to own and drive including cars, trucks and even motorcycles.

This sure looks like its more than fixing up your car in a garage both driving and fixing cars are mentioned multiple times not just working in a garage.

I'm not particularly interested in watching my sims drive around in cars, cellphone teleport works for me. To make cars interesting at the very least there should be some gameplay like setting your driving style similarily to your work options. Going faster might end up the sims having to pay a fine and driving slower might get another car (probably even a playable for who´m I defined a reckless/impatient driving style before) crash into yours from behind. Chance cards might be a nice addition, too, for those who like them. I like the concept of chance cards, but often either the scenario described is unlikely (space exploration is a little different from the fantasy rocketship chance cards) or the wording doesn't sit well with me (probably due to a generations and/or cultural values dissonance).

However, I'd love to get the second aspect mentioned in the survey! It would be exiting if they made the garage work the same as the vet career: Players can use all the equipment at home with not restrictions, but if you want you can also get the full experience by buying and running a garage.

No point in Sims 4 and I don't see it happening so not even thinking about it as a possibility.

Besides I liked using cars etc in Sims 3 - rotted in Sims 2 so not even interested in anything but cars in an open world. Which is not Sims 4.

Fake cars are bad enough, but yard cars are ridiculous.

Nope not interested in more yard benches, Sims have ample yard chairs and benches already - thank you very much.
