Mazda 3 BP (2.5 AWD Turbo + 2.0 stock)
🕑 Added 2023-04-17 16:53:13 +0000 UTCHey! I've been working on this one for a while... Thanks to kindness of Cosmin, who got the 3D model to work with, it's my pleasure to introduce to You the youngest member of Mazda3 family - 4th gen, called the "BP"!
I prepared 2 versions of this one. The first is performance version, 2.5 Turbo AWD, with the soul of old Mazdaspeed brand - however, this time Mazda abandoned the idea of ridiculous torque steer and made more sophisticated vehicle. Don't be fooled tho, it doesn't make it any less exciting - it's still hella HOT Hatchback!
Second version is stock 2.0 with half of the Turbos horsepower (122HP - but according to dyno results, that's actually only a meaningless number, because realistically stock version achieves 137HP, and can be easily mapped to 180HP!). With BP gen, Mazda is aiming towards Premium quality vehicle.
As always, mod has CSP config, CM Paintshop support, AO, HQ textures and realistic physics tested by car owner. Patreons are getting few days of early access, too :)

-Some parts and new textures were made by me or taken from Kunos cars
-Sound: 101creative (AO Car Mods), edited via CSP config
That's another huge step to bringing the whole Mazda 3 family into Assetto Corsa. Right now I'd like to polish out the old first gen models (so, another rework coming!) and then focus on making the ancestors, so the 323 family. In the meantime, You can expect 2 high quality race cars as well. Stay tuned and keep zoom-zooming!

Thank you for this!!!! The car is in the garage behind me, and it's fun to throw it around in a virtual environment. I've been very pleased after just 10 minutes of driving yours.
