New photographs of A$AP Rocky’s real-life customized Mercedes-Benz 190E have surfaced following the earlier this month rеvеal of the in-game digital duplicate for Need for Speed Unbound. The rеvеal took place earlier this month. Unbound will provide players with the ability to compete with Rocky in-game for the hero automobile after hiring AWGE as a creative consultant. Rocky will be driving a classic muscle car.
The Scarface-like mid-split paintwork on the DTM-inspired 190E saloon has AWGE logo as well as the phrases “Always $trive and Prosper” and “If Not Now Then When” printed on the driver’s and passenger’s doors, respectively. There are also other elements such as X-taped headlamps, a metallic gold grille, TESTING warning patterns on the antennae, an expanded front splitter with green underglow lighting, and deep-dish BBS rear wheels.
“Each panel has been reworked, all four arches have been tubbed, and there is a significant amount of traditional handiwork visible. According to the article that a writer to Speedhunters penned by Ryan Steward, “Along the way, some wonderful friendships have been forged, which is what automotive life is all about.” “To create something that is so incredibly accurate to a game render requires a group of people who are willing to go above and beyond any reasonable level of detail.”
This is a more in-depth look at the car’s graphical representation within the game. In the coming weeks, Speedhunters will release an article that provides further information.
