Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights

Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights is a video game in production for the PC, PSP, PS2, PS3, Xbox 360, and Nintendo DS. It is a sequel to the 2005 game Juiced. This game is produced by Juice Games and THQ. The game is set to release on September 25, 2007.

A demo for the Xbox 360 version was released on Xbox Live Marketplace on July 19, 2007.

Race Types
According to Gamereactor, the game will start off in a night club where the player selects their character mrrhhhand car. Juice Games has decided to remove the racing calender, the respect system and the drag races. After choosing a character and car, the player will get a list of available races, three of which must be won in order to move up to the next level. Juiced 2 includes two types of racing - Circuit and Drift races.

Your Character
A new feature in the game is the ability for the player to design their own character, from hair color to sock color, which will make sure that no two drivers are alike and all online racers are unique. It has been rumoured that there will be over 300 brands of clothes to choose from.

Modding
Players will also be able to modify and tune their cars with over 10,000 upgrades including bodykits, spoilers, rims, doors, wing mirrors, hoods, exhausts, ride height, sun roof etc... performance upgrades and even the interior of your car(seats and steering wheels and even wing mirror, it is said in an interview that you can now put in speakers, or TV's Amps etc...). All upgrades are licensed products from real companies such as Greddy, Veilside BuddyClub and Stillen. If a player selects a new body kit, he or she will also be able to watch as the new body parts are added to the car giving an inside view on how real cars are customized with body kits and other modifications. There will be hundreds of new colorus and finishes (such as varnish or Matte). There will be over 2000 decals to choose from, resize and move with up to 50 Layers.You can also save a certain decal combination and apply it to other cars in your garage. As there are different towns in different countries, you can also change your license plate(e.g. an Australian license plate for Sydney) which will have your Username on it.

Driver DNA
Juiced Games has also created something called Driver DNA which records a players style of driving and creates a strand of "DNA". Other players can then download your DNA from Playstation Network or XBOX Live and race against it before they challenge you.

Settings
Another change from the first Juiced game is that the fictional city known as "Angel City" has been dropped and races will take place in real cities which are Rome, London, Paris, Sydney, Tokyo and San Francisco. This is not an accurate layout of the city because of twisty and curvy tracks built in conjunction with the streets, but they do feature landmarks of that particular city.

Online features
Like the previous Juiced game, Online features such as Pink Slip Races will affect your Career mode. A new feature is to have an Online Career and Crew. You can download your friends' Driver DNA, view it and add them to your crew. You can trade cars and other items online. Each car has a log book which tells the current owner how many people have owned the car and what races it has been in. Online betting updates allow a player to bet during races, see how many people are betting on and against them, and what their odds are. Unfortunately, Online will not be a feature on the PS2, PSP an Nintendo DS versions.

Soundtrack
Each race event attended by musicians and DJ's which give it a 'nightclub' feel. Juice Games called upon Adam Freeland to lay down some well known tunes and mix his own stuff too. The end result is a smooth R&B, Hip-Hop vibe that comes to life during races along with some huge beats and classic rock.
