An idea for the vehicle selection menu

So we all know that the current Maniaplanet games uses the same vehicle selection menu from TMUF, a black room with a circle on the floor where the vehicle stays on the middle, well I think it could be better if each Maniaplanet game could have it's own unique vehicle selection menu, here is two examples (they are too big to fit on this topic so there is links instead)

Imho, the painter menu is about the cars, not its surroundings. Easy, so there's no distraction when counting pixels to make the junctions fit :lol:

But it should be atleast different compared to TMUF you know, also this is the vehicle selection menu, which could be different from the Painter menu

I like the idea actually. this way you can understand how the model looks in actual gameplay, and not in some abstract black thing.

How about having a car showroom?

To be fair, there is an issue with cars looking different in play then they do on the editor. You can make a deep shiny red car in the editor and then when you take it into a race it looks bright pink. Not great.
