1950s Lincoln Capri (Carrera Panamericana)
1950 Cadillac (Carrera and lemans (don't know when/if SRC's is coming)
more bathurst cars - 70s Mazda MX3, 60s Toyota 1600
Ol' Yaller hot rod sports car series
ditto on the 80s T-Bird (83-88)
1962 Pontiac - Smokey/Fireball
1960 Ford aerobubble
68-72 Grand American cars
1955 Chrysler 300 hemi
1965-71 Indy Cars (50-64 for that matter)

That's 70s Mazda RX-3 Bathurst (oops)

I would love to see a 1979-1985 style Mazda RX-7. The original body style with the rotary engine was an instant hit. Or the new Mazda Miata RF with the food down hard top that looks a little like a an old opel GT. How about the INDY turbine car (1969?). Since Scaley already has a VW chassis, how about a Meyers Manx style dune buggy?
Just make sure anything new has a rear engine so that it can be chipped.

I second crossovercrazy's list of stockers, but it may be too much to hope for. A T-Bird that customers could readily repaint into #9 or #28 colors (Coors/Elliott and Hardees/Yarborough) would be the natural antagonist for the Monte Carlos, as is the Regal.

Since the F1 Eagle tooling already exists, some alterations in wheelbase, engines, and liveries gets us Lloyd Ruby, Bobby Unser (winner), and the Gurney Indianapolis cars from 1967-68.

I would like to see some Corvettes also and not just the Daytona's the c6r that came out a few years back were good runners.

Time for new track?......

[DaveKennedy]

We have some ideas already that are being discussed and i believe that when I visit England next month we will have this topic as one of our main discussion points. I won't be discussing ahead of time any ideas in public for a variety of reasons.
Generally speaking I like to have new mold suggestions fit into existing lines or supplement cars that are currently orphan cars. There are several obvious cars that currently don't have a direct running mate and that needs to be addressed IMO.
There are a LOT of cars we could do and frankly nothing is off the table as far as i'm concerned... race liveries, street liveries, movie cars... we are a British company of course but for my suggestions they would be mostly focused on getting more US styles of cars.

Yeah I hope not, with Policar and ScaleAuto coming, along with perfectly adequate Carrera...the LAST thing we need is yet another new track.

Save the $$$ and go for tooling more CARS :)

And...

Like the sound of it. Good luck out there :) :flags-waveusa:

Since there are some far out ideas already, how about one a bit further?
