-Fiat Coupe is car model completely designed for Racer
-all details are authentic (Fiat Coupe Gamma'96 (1996-1999))
-speedometer is used from "LE" version (limited edition) with max speed 280km/h instead 260km/h (speedometer also shows bit higher speed, like real car)
-engine sounds are originally recorded Fiat coupe 20VT sounds on idle, turbine sound is mixed real accelerate sound. Exhaust sound (on idle) is lot deeper and noisier than original (freeflow sport exhaust), starter sound is also recorded
-colors are authentic from Fiat catalogue: all 8 exterior colors and 3 interior colors (without Bordeaux leather)
-all dials and buttons have red illumination with lights option ON (this is very useful on night tracks)
-car doesnt have separated interior because lights options in this case wont work (no illuminated dials), outside dials may be removed with ctrl-V
-clock show only lap time, real time function is not yet available for use in views.ini
-only outside speedometer contains worked odometer 


Thanks to Auriken on some Coupe informations, Goro Fujita for lot helps on car.ini
