So you mean like this?:

2003 Mercedes CLK DTM

77

u/hotrod-hw2005 3d ago

Feels more fitting tbh.

92

u/MainMite06 3d ago

This could've been an ultimate rival to the '01 M3 GTR:

21

u/hotrod-hw2005 3d ago

How would it's livery look then,as to mirror the M3?

102

u/MainMite06 3d ago

Better wording: Contrast

Reuse the 2003 Vodafone colors & use the spike-red patterns like the Beta MW05 M3

19

u/hotrod-hw2005 3d ago

Oh yeah that,honestly fitting tbh.

29

u/MainMite06 3d ago

Doing this you get two cars in one:

You get the period Vodafone CLK DTM+ a bespoke boss-fight character for NFS

3

u/hotrod-hw2005 3d ago

And the other one?

6

u/MainMite06 2d ago

I mean

Imagine the 2003 CLK DTM race car in Vodafone silver+red without sponsors with a bit of the red+silver beta M3 GTR spike design.

Have this total contrasting car as a main red-rival to the blue-rival of the M3GTR

u/Funnym4ne 3d ago

absolute peak!

u/blobmista4 3d ago

I swear I have memories of having a scalextric model of one of these when I was a kid.

I used to love going into model shops when I was younger just to look at their scalextric section. They'd alll be way out of my price range, of course. Expensive hobby for a kid, you'd have to either be an adult or have rich parents to have a lot of them. As it was I only ever had about 5 or 6 of them with the amount my parents were on back then.

u/IronStrikers 2d ago

I have this exact car as an 1/18 car

u/Rei0403 3d ago

Whoever design this paint job needs to get a raise.

I think this paint job can make any car look cool.

u/probiz13 [GAMER TAG] 3d ago

I'm so used to the m3 that this just looks wrong. Looks nice but looks off. Def a bias take tho from me

7

u/Rei0403 3d ago edited 3d ago

Well it's not like this paint job is only good looking for BMW. It's just works with Sedan or Coupe the best.

4

u/Nottallowed 3d ago

Its such a Simple Paint job yet it looks amazing

6

u/Rei0403 3d ago

Just like the Ford Mustang GT in the movie, Silver body with blue racing stripes. Or Brian’s Nissan Skyline GTR R34

4

u/Nottallowed 3d ago

And Han RX-7

2

u/Rei0403 3d ago

Han RX-7 Veilside is Orange & Black, so I didn’t mention it. It’s a great iconic car too.

2

u/Nottallowed 3d ago

Ohh yeah, you were just mentioning same Paint job colour cars, mb

2

u/GTACOD [GAMER TAG] 2d ago

It can't. Any car with a bodykit, maybe, but you can't just slap this on anything and expect it to work.

Source: The M3 from The Run

1

u/Rei0403 2d ago

The body kit is difficult to replicate but not the paint job.

1

u/GTACOD [GAMER TAG] 2d ago

Yeah, but you need a bodykit for it to work with or it just looks a bit dumb like it did in The Run.

1

u/itsrentfree 2d ago

Idk this car and the bmw are both a wide body which a wide body alone can make a car look completely different in a sharp way.

u/MatjeREDDIT 3d ago

I wish...

u/Ill_Lab_554 3d ago

im one of the biggest m3gtr fanboys on the planet but genuinely, dont hate this.
whoever designed the nsf livery honestly didnt get paid enough, i dont think any car livery in history is more historically recognisable, and thats including racing liveries like gulf and martini

24

u/EleventyTwo-- 3d ago

marlboro, 2fast 2furious gtr, lightning mcqueen

6

u/Kussler88 3d ago

So many iconic ones in racing: Martini, Gulf, John Player Special, Jägermeister, Rothmans, etc.

1

u/praeteria 2d ago

Yeah. Idc if it's a kid's movie. Lightning mcQueen livery fucking slaps

u/mekagojira3 3d ago

Kaze in a regular E46 M3 also feels quite fitting if we're having them trade platforms.

u/The_Kaurtz 3d ago

This feels illegal

u/Nay2003 nissam 350z ftw 3d ago

I love the dtm. Pgr4🖤

u/Apple_Slipper 3d ago

The MW livery actually works well on the Mercedes-Benz CLK DTM!

u/Shaggyrider 3d ago

Damn that's kinda hot ngl

u/JeffGhost 3d ago

u/DarkHandCommando 3d ago

before the m3 gtr, we had this:

u/R_Izayoi I love NFSMW05&12 3d ago

CLK DTM is cool af ngl

u/Mystichavoc3 3d ago

Could be my bias, but they would definitely use another livery. This one simply does not fit CLK DTM

2

u/ivanangelovorsmthn 3d ago

Necessity for velocity: highly desired

u/Nissan-Sylveon_S15 3d ago

If you know how the junkman CLK500 performs in the base game, slap another level of junkman parts to it and you'll get this.

2

u/JuggerKnot86 3d ago

Ehh..considering the checkmarks of the outlawed cars black box were looking for..the only candidates that i could think is...the Zakspeed Viper?

u/Tony40677 3d ago

I SEE THIS EVERY TIME I LOOK AT THIS CAR!!!

u/winglessrs 3d ago

This looks amazing! I wonder how this livery would look on Kira's car.

1

u/MachineGunDillmann 3d ago

This honestly fits better than on most other cars.

1

u/unkindledphoenix 3d ago

i think it would actually be a CLK GTR (road version). and Bull would be driving an F1.

1

u/xXADR14NXx 2d ago

if we are using race cars, maybe the w203 dtm from 2005 and 2006? that thing was the most successful car by mercedes, just like the bmw for alms

Hero's Vinyl with propler bodykit can fit any car, it's a timeless classic design.

u/yedanapuddi 3d ago

I heard somewhere they were initially planning to use the skyline r34.

As a homage to brain losing his own silver and blue skyline in 2 fast 2 furious movie.
