    This was a rather pointless change, the whole purpose of which appears to be to force people to grind rep.
    Agreed. I was interested in this for many reasons. One, I liked having the rare vehicle colors, so I wanted to know how they were going to get them out to the unlucky people. The only one I am missing is the Bright White and I can't justify spending 100 rep and 14.5k (when the stats are no different) just to get it. I'll catch it as a special sometime.

    Rep grind is fine, but taking something that was just random vendor special, claiming it is something special and new, and slapping a rep requirement...

    Why am i not surprised that the stats are the same, i came to the forums to see if it was just me seeing this, as i would of happily burned some script on these. But Thanks Devs proving that no patch and no issue that needs fixing will ever actually get fixed in the patch its meant to.... slowly finding i can't recommend this game anymore.

    I would imagine that they've removed them from the normal vendor lists.

    Eh, it's gonna make the people who originally got the cars randomly just feel like they're not special anymore. I was looking forward to the modified stats too, not just a modified paint job.

    On some bright side, at least we have some use for that paradise rep that was otherwise useless.

    The dark side of that being the dead battery challenger cars are the worst in the game, can't climb hills and can't get over bumps.

    And AHHHH!!!, what is up with random emergencies popping up on really difficult racetracks? The only way I got gold for this was someone cleared the emergency in the road ahead of me before I went around the track for my fifth try in a row...

    Good point. I can only hope though right?

    Honestly, yea it sucks a little bit. I never saw another Plum Crazy Challenger until last night. I had mine on day 3 or so. It felt pretty awesome while it lasted.

    I would imagine they'd mention that in the patch notes if they did. I'm sure they're aware people spend time bouncing between vendors looking for vehicles.

    I expected High Performace versions - like the pre-order car.

    I was expecting something different from the wording, but it's not the end of the world. We received a new race that, for once, uses a car instead of a quad. That counts for something - content is content and fun side races don't automatically suck just because they don't reward you with the keys to a pimped out ride.
