im not so sure about the stag: http://www.time.com/time/speci ... icle/0,28804,1658545_1658498_1657839,00.html

Now, we're being a little unfair there, just because it was built with a
kids engineering set and fell apart in the greatly unlikely event that it actually started. It's stylish and in a sim environment where you take away reliability issues and engineering faults it would be a perfect car.

by interceptor do you mean ford interceptor concept? Thats the only thing i saw when i searched.

nah, Jensen Interceptor http://www.seriouswheels.com/p ... I-Saloon-maroon-fa-lr.jpg

Which again, being British, and built during the labour strikes and having been designed by people who thought hi tech was using a spark to ignite the fuel, rather than relying on pressure alone, suffered it's setbacks. But, bot cars are irresistibly stylish, very powerful and great fun (while they lasted).

There are only two more cars I'd like to see, first a balanced rival to the UF1 (I think the most fun car on LFS) and second a (possibly mid engined) lightweight sports car, similar to the RaceAbout but less powerful and lighter, think Triumph stag (which would sort you V8 boys out) or the legendary GT6. The biggest thing I'd like to have in the next installment would be all rough tracks, preferably in a stage with time attacks only. It would sort the men from the boys and stop all this pointless T1 talk.....

EDIT: I am aware that both the Stag and GT6 are front engined, but I learnt to drive in a GT6 and it will always have a place in my list of top ten cars. Alternately something the other end of the spectrum, with the weight and power of the FZ50 like maybe an Interceptor

Ok, the engine damage is fairly accurate, I tried this out myself and the cars which incurred little to no damage rather than just over cooking the engine actually lost grip with the road. The reason being the engine had the power/weight to overcome the friction coefficient between the tyre and the road. The fact that these are RWD cars merely adds to the effect as the weight is transferred to the front wheels as it slows. The UF1, FXO and XFG which seem to take the most damage are relatively low power to weight ratio vehicles and are FWD, meaning the tyres not only grip the road far more than the stopping power of the engine, but as the car slows down the grip factor increases.

A couple of factors I would like to see make it into LFS (although possibly not for a while) is clutch wear, especially on the heavier engined cars, and coolant overheating.
