One of the most expensive cars in real life
has been created in Second life. That’s right we are talking about the Drophead
Coupe based on the Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe. It is Unlike the real
life version of that car which cost more than a third of a million pounds.
(About $479,775 USD) The Surplus Motors Drophead cost L$2000 which is a great
price I think for what you are getting including working rear-opening doors and
great interior and exterior. Anyways let’s get down to business.
Space:
The Drophead Coupe does not have much legroom
in the back so this would be one of those Luxury cars where you would prefer
the front seats. If you click on the car and go into the menu click on
Option>Advance>Resize. The rest is self-explanatory allowing you to
resize so you can fit yourself and your friends in the car perfectly. The boot
also known as the trunk is quite small but enough for shopping but for now
nothing interactive can be done in there.
Comfort
Drophead uses modified ACS scripts version
7.02 with great sound. Sometimes when I’ve been driving it I’ve been tempted to
rev it just to see if the engine is running. Having put this on a race track in
Second Life is when I’ve really noticed the engine doing its thing when I
accelerate hard.
Dashboard
Layout
In
two word the dashboard it’s simple & Beautiful. The interior of the Surplus
Motor Drophead is textured incredibly matching the actual trimming of the real
life version of the leather and wood. Both of which is assemble in beauty
making both textures complement each other.
The dashboard of the car is very simple with the modern technology such
as the media capability allowing accesses your favourite music. I Love listening to Roads Untraveled by Linkin
Park when driving the car.
Easy
to Drive
In the car you sit very high with default
camera view also being high which can be adjustable but I think it is perfect
for a wide and long car like this. As you get to see the road you are driving
on and you know where the road ends so you do not end up crashing into the car
in front. Yes I admit I’ve crashed a few times in it but I have found that
reversing and changing lanes and turning the whole car to the right or left is
a bit tricky due to the length of the car.
In
terms of steer apart from what I have just mentioned due to the lovely ACS
scripts modification it feels effortless to accelerate. However, in manual mode
I think the car shifts more than it needs to at times which can be a downside.
Fun
to Drive
The Surplus Drophead is a fun car to drive
no doubt about that which is more enjoyable than I expected. However, this does
not include the tight bends which was annoying especially though Morningwood
Valley.
Pricing
If money is not an object and you are happy
to spend L$2000 this is the car when you are looking for Comfort, Presence and
luxury.
