Interesting fact #37: One of the planned features for the PC version of NFS: Porsche Unleashed was an online used car market where players could buy or sell vehicles, as in the single-player Evolution Mode. (1/2)

According to Scott Probin (Associate Producer), it was canceled due to time constraints. A similar idea reappeared in Motor City Online a year later.

Interesting fact #36: another cheat code that can be entered in the PC version of Need for Speed II is "GO50". This allows you to drive a beer box.
There is only one word on it: "Cervesa". (1/2)

There is also a Spanish word, "cerveza", which simply means "beer".
Inside the box, you can also find an additional shadow texture. There is no beer itself, though. (2/2)
Interesting fact #35: This early Need for Speed: High Stakes logo had a different look, with a style that was surprisingly closer to those of more recent NFS titles. (1/2)

This version of the logo appeared in various PSX-related magazines - one of them is the Game Pro No.128 from May '99.
Thanks to YT user @ ViralVelocity25 for searching and uploading these scans of the magazines to YouTube. Check out the Community tab on his channel. (2/2)

The next update to the NFS:HS Complete Edition mod will include a fix for the TransAm logo visibility on the Pontiac Firebird. (1/2)
