El33tOnline – The Sims 3 Fast Lane Stuff review

You get a few cars to add to your garage, some of which are truly fast, some of which are simply nice to look at. You also add a workbench to your garage that allows you to tinker away on them with no effect at all. In order to decorate your new garage you have a few items to stick to the walls like a collection of rims, or some girly posters from the 60’s. If you feel like going after an even more authentic 60’s look you can add a carpet that looks like an LP and a gas pump. But you need to dress to the occasion and here you will find a few new hairstyles out of the different racing eras, and clothing to suit up with. My favourite has to be the huge Johnny Bravo hair style. It’s the only style that can be considered a “style with style.”

Sims3Nieuws – The Sims 3 Fast Lane Stuff reviewed

Our partners over at Sims3Nieuws took the time to extensively review the recently released Sims 3 Fast Lane Stuff Pack. Here’s a snippet from the review:

The MSRP for The Sims 3 Super Quick Accessories is € 19.99. And, like The Sims 3 Luxury (High End Loft Stuff), contains about 60 items, the big question is: is it worth?

Tenerife Terror:

Classic Luxury me speaks to me.
I enjoy how my Sim is luxurious and stylish look with a little pit by the PK’s.

I_mJimmy:

Since the announcement of The Sims 3 Fast Lane Stuff, I had not exactly an “itch” feeling in my stomach (which I notice after a fun but often do). I was not enthusiastic about the content and the title of the accessory kit helped there is not much to it. After I played the game I am still pleasantly surprised, content adds many new and fun items to the game, many players who surely now can use!

Zemm:

Normally, a car dealer to make just a dump, a garage door in the wall and ready. This accessory package is passed this time. But there are also other furniture from which the new banks and stabbing bars above it for me.

And where the course is all about the cars, they are beautiful and in different styles so that for all musical tastes. This is also the downside in my opinion, it seems sometimes a bit of everything. I had developed a rather elaborate theme seen, so you have some choice things and more to combine.

Kyta:

I think Super Quick Accessories a nice addition to the vehicles, they just drive very fast! The variation in the new style is great! The furniture I find a little bit, but great. This extension is not a must, but I would be missing for no gold.

Hiki:

The major disadvantage of Super Quick Accessories I do not think you can furnish complete house with all the stuff. The first accessory pack The Sims Deluxe 3 could do that. But the classic luxury furniture and cars do much good if it’s strange that there is only Intrigue cars down and no furniture. I think it’s an expensive package and not really a must if your Sims do not have many cars. But many of my Sims are still very happy with and that’s important!

CinemaBlend – The Sims 3 Fast Lane Stuff reviewed

It should be said that I’m not much of a car person. Sure, I can appreciate a classic car if I spot one on the road, but you won’t catch me at an auto-show anytime soon. So the theme of this latest Stuff Pack didn’t exactly jump out and grab me from the start, but considering High End Loft offered some new and interesting options for home décor, I thought the same might be said for Fast Lane and to an extent, it is. For fans of cars, the Stuff Pack includes twelve new vehicles for Sims to drive, including some classic looking cars, a scooter similar (but not identical) to the one in the World Adventures Expansion Pack, and a motorcycle.

Lazy Game Reviews: The Sims 3 Fast Lane Stuff

This guy appears to be oddly similar to me… however he owns a chair that looks to be from the 70′s and I’m pretty much chairless…so he wins for the coolness factor.  Wonder if phreakindee reads this site.  Thanks to Sims 3 Nieuws for bringing this to my attention!

So, who here managed to pick up a copy of the Stuff Pack?  Stopped by the store on the way home from work and snagged a copy for my collection.  Won’t have time to play with it anytime soon – too many chores to take care of first!  Thanks to InfiniteSims for the link to the newsletter.
