3. I would hate that ,but that what the contradiction boils down too.
4. You see where I'm getting at? It's like "keep all these but let's get rid of some of these"
5. I really hope licensing is not the issue here.
1. The Camaro Z/28, as stated previously, is a facelifted 5th gen Camaro. The 2010 SS started it, the 2012 ZL1 was a refresh of sorts (kinda), the '15 is a facelift. 2016 Model Year Camaros start the 6th generation.
2. Apples and Oranges. Someone used the M3s earlier, so I'll use it too. The reason why the E30, E36, E46, and E92 are still in, even though the F30 is in (M4 because BMW naming), is because those are different generations. With the Corvettes, we have the '53,
and C1-C7 eras. Top-of-the-line model from each, ok, but still one of each.
3. I would hate that too, but the contradiction doesn't really boil down to that. It's getting rid of, say, the C6 Grand Sport and the C6 ZO6 to have the C6 ZR1 instead, not getting rid of all the Corvettes because the 2015 ZO6 is in.
4. It's just getting rid of duplicates from the same generation. Not the entire model range. We do have more than one Civic, right? More than one Mustang, more than one Lancer Evo, more than one WRX STI.....see where I'm going?
-Addendum: I don't disagree with your post. I
do like having the duplicates in, because A. It allows you to see the progress made along the generation's life, and B. It allows you to compare them all on track. I do miss the 2005 Gallardo, the 2003 Murcielago, the 1999 360 Modena, and so on, but I'm not the one making the game, and I'm not the one that has to deal with the companies that made said cars. All I pay for is my download.
5. That, money, and resources are all probably why. The degrees of influence each has I know not.
Now does this explain generations that went missing? Maybe. There was at one (well, more than one really) point in time a 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gen Supra in the same game....4th is still here but gen's 2 and 3 are MIA. I used the Civics earlier, so while we have several, we did have more. 1999, anyone?
I do question the sort of "backwards" removals though, like the Honda NSX-R GT being dropped when the standard NSX-R is still here. Can't really think of another example at the moment.
