CREATOR BY ASHMINGGU
Neither do I often make American cars nor do I often come to like them. As such, when I make an American car as an addon, the car in question is a car that I truly adore and come to like. This is especially true for a few American cars that I have made before such as the DeLorean and in this addon, the sleek C4 Corvette. A machine that for a Corvette, seems to be pretty underrated. With the compact yet powerful Chevrolet LT5 V8 engine, the C4 can generate and upwards of 375 hp, making it almost as powerful as V12 powered supercars of the day. This would consecutively allow the C4 to attain a top speed of a mind-boggling 282 km/h, or around 175 mph for our American friends – which for the late 80’s and early 90’s, was something that was anything but ordinary. Design-wise, the C4 Corvette marked a departure from the more traditional styling of the Corvette lineup, evolving from the fancier curve-inspired styling found on its predecessors, the C2 and the C3, to a more modern, sleek and 80’s wedge motif design style – suitable for the implementation of everyone’s favourite automotive headlight design, the popups! Did we mention the C4 continues to incorporate popup headlights? To make it even more futuristic and 80’s styled, just take a brief look at the interior. It has almost everything you’d probably expect to find in a cyberpunk-retro-ish themed car, from digital gauges to an aircraft-like cockpit, you’d be damn sure to get a feeling of superiority when driving this machine on the road. In hindsight, it’s a car that is exponentially more valuable than its price would suggest.
• Car History
“The Chevrolet Corvette (C4) is the fourth generation of the Corvette sports car, produced by American automobile manufacturer Chevrolet from 1983 until 1996. The convertible returned, as did higher performance engines, exemplified by the 375 hp (280 kW) LT5 found in the ZR-1. In early March 1990, the ZR-1 would set a new record for the highest 24 hour-5,000 mile land-speed by going over a speed of 175 mph (282 km/h). With a completely new chassis, modern sleeker styling, and other improvements to the model, prices rose and sales declined. The last C4 was produced on June 20, 1996.”

• How to open the doors & How to turn on popup headlights
i) Doors
To OPEN the doors, right click the car and the doors will open. Right click again to get in.
To CLOSE the doors, right click WHILE shifting/crouching.
ii) Popups
To TURN ON the popups, right click WHILE shifting/crouching WHEN the doors are closed and the popup headlights will turn on!
To TURN OFF the popups, right click WHILE shifting/crouching.
In a nutshell, the concept is basically;
Right click/hold + Shift/crouch = On/off the popups and close doors
Right click ONLY = Open doors and to get in car … (once the car’s doors are open)
• Advanced sounds
In total there are 6 sound effects for the cars. The list are as follows:
Startup sound effect – When the player sits in the car
Driving sound effect – When the player drives the car
Custom car damage sound – When the car is damaged / takes a hit
Door closing sound effect – When the player closes the door
Door opening sound effect – When the player opens the door
Popups on/off sound effect – When the player turns the popups on/off
This addon DOES NOT REQUIRE (any type of..) EXPERIMENTAL MODE.
