And with those real entries prepare some hystorycal scenarios like compete with Henry Ford in America
or try to beat Silver Arrows and Autounion in Germany
or meet mr. Ferrari in Italia
the scenarios schould not be too random, but rather scripted to follow the real hystorycal events of those early-days or todays world famous automotive companies.
Via the licence you could probably aquire some cool company graphics to the game too (like more blueprints/bodies/logos etc)
And a little supprise - may be a real CarKeys with gear City logo in shape of crankshaft or something closely related to the car bussines
As Eric said, though this would be nice - it is completely out of the realm of possibility. Even large development teams working on top-of-the-line racing simulations and backed by multi-millon dollar publishers have plenty of trouble securing licenses from car manufacturers (Ferrari and Porsche are prime examples here). Though other manufacturers, such as BMW, may be more forthcoming, they're still a long way off from doing ANYTHING for a reasonable sum. Due to the nature of GearCity, having one or two "officially licensed" manufacturers, even though it may be feasible, would be the very definition of the word "pointless". But fret not, I'm 100% sure that someone will come around and mod real companies into the game soon enough...In fact, I've already done that for the beta and it really is easy enough to do yourself .
