Buthanbang
1970 Dodge Challenger
The Buthanbang resembles the 1970 Dodge Challenger almost identically, down to the body style, hood, and bumpers. The only differences are in the headlights, tailights, side-view mirrors, and the grill to a good degree. There are also no side indicators on the Buthanbang's fenders, unlike the Challenger.








Camira
1978 Ford Capri Mk III
Initially, I wasn't really sure what car the Camira resembled, so I threw the image into Google's image search and almost all the results were the Ford Capri, specifically the 3rd generation.

Frankly, its convincing, from the similar headlights and grill, the curved c-pillars, the overall shape of the cars, the 6-cylinder engines, and even the names of the cars (the first two letters in each name). The only major differences are the amount of chrome the Camira has compared to the plastic the 3rd gen Capri has, the Camira's circular taillights compared to the Capri's rectangular taillights, and how the Camira's c-pillar does not extend as far to the rear as the Capri's c-pillar does. Other differences are the shape of the side-view mirrors and bumpers.







Jingu
1962 Jeep Gladiator SJ
I always thought the Jingu was an original pickup that subtly alluded to the early 60's Chevrolet Apache, but after a Google image search, the majority of results were the 1962 Jeep Gladiator, which looks far more similar.

The front half of each pickup are almost identical, as the Jingu shares the design pattern of the Gladiator's front fenders, doors, wheel arches, roof, and windows. Furthermore, both pickups have a bulge on their hoods/bonnets, receding into their grills. Both of their names even start with the letter J.

For major differences, the Jingu's grill covers the entirety of its front fascia and its headlights have more of a 50's style to them. Also, the Jingu's bumpers are rectangular and longer than the Gladiator's, not to mention that its bed is completely different.







Kanji
1972 Nissan Skyline 2000GT-R C110
The Kanji is virtually identical to the 1972 Nissan Skyline 2000GT-R C110 in almost every way. The only differences are that the Kanji's headlights are slightly different, its side-view mirrors are door-mounted as opposed to fender-mounted, it only has one taillight on each side instead of two on the Skyline, there are no indicators on its bumpers, unlike the Skyline, and its wheel arches are painted.







Magura
1966-1970 Iso Grifo
Like the Kanji and the Skyline, the Magura is basically identical to the Iso Grifo, specifically the 1966-1970 models. The only major differences are that the Iso Grifo has chrome side skirts, unlike the Magura, and both of their taillights are different.







Miduga
1985-1992 Mazda RX-7 (FC)
The Miduga is, by far, the car with the closest resemblance to its real-life counterpart in Revhead. There are virtually no real differences except for the wing mirrors, the front lip, and the extra brake light.







Narnoo
1985 Chevrolet Blazer
The Narnoo is undoubtedly based on the Chevrolet Blazer, specifically the 1985 model. Both vehicles have similar grills, headlights, taillights, body styles, and side-view mirrors. However, there are many major differences, one of which being that the Narnoo lacks the amount of chrome the Blazer has, such as on its front and rear fascia, wheel arches, and headlight/taillight outlines. Furthermore, the Narnoo has bar bumpers as opposed to the Blazer's more conventional rectangular bumpers, has much larger factory wheels than the Blazer, and its body is overall less detailed.







Panania
Various 1990s-2000s Japanese Coupes
To be honest, finding the real-life counterpart for the Panania was difficult. I tried Google image searching the Panania to see what results came up, but I only got other fictional cars from other video games. Therefore, I had to use my intuition and knowledge of car models to determine what the Panania is based on, so here's what I came up with.

1994 Toyota Celica Coupe
The Panania's body, more notably its roof and pillar layout, its rims, and its lacking of an upper grill are similar to the Toyota Celica's, but, of course, that's where the visual similarities end. Their headlights are completely different, with the Celica's headlights being circular rather than long and blobby like the Panania's, and their lower grills don't visually connect at all.

1999 Honda S2000
The S2000 and the Panania have somewhat similar lower grilles, with the long center grill accompanied with two vents on each side, but everything else about each car can't compare.

1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse
The Panania's headlights are very similar to the 1999 Eclipse's, and the grill, roof, and pillars somewhat. However, nothing else is really similar about the two cars.

2002 Nissan Skyline GT-R (R34)
The taillights of both cars are extremely similar, as well as their roofs, pillars, and rear-ends to a small extent, but everything else doesn't really compare to each other.

We can conclude for the Panania that its the most original car design from the developers in Creative Pudding. Even though there are some similarities between it and other cars, it mostly can't compare with them. If you know a car that is more similar-looking to the Panania, please let me know in the comments!











Walea
1968-1974 Datsun 510 / Nissan Bluebird and 1978 Holden Gemini
The cars I found most similar to the Walea were the 1968-1974 Datsun 510 / Nissan Bluebird and the 1978 Holden Gemini.

For starters, the boxy body, bumpers, side-view mirrors, roof, and pillar layout of the Datsun 510 is extremely similar to the Walea's. Even its door handles, wheel arches, and taillights are somewhat similar. Somewhat, of course, as the Walea's taillights are in one, connected panel instead of the Datsun's separate taillights, and its front grill and headlights are far different from the Datsun's.

However, the Holden Gemini's front-end is far more similar to the Walea's, in fact almost identical, down to the rectangular headlights, rectangular grill, rectangular bumpers, and a small bulge in the car's hood/bonnet. Its door handles are a closer match to the Walea's, and their taillights are somewhat similar as well, though the Gemini's don't connect to each other. As for differences, the Gemini's body is less boxy than the Walea's, and its wing mirrors are plastic and have a different look to them.

To conclude, the Walea is basically a mixture of the two cars, with the body from the Datsun 510 and the front fascia from the Holden Gemini.











Wanja
1998 Ford Crown Victoria
The Wanja greatly resembles the 1998 Ford Crown Victoria, from the body style, front fascia, headlights and taillights. Not without differences though, as the Wanja has fog lights in its lower grill, a boxier, different-looking upper grille, boxier wing mirrors, different door handles, headlights that don't wrap around the front of the car as far as the Crown Victoria's, and unique taillights. There is also no chrome around the outline of its windows and a large usage of plastic at its rear-end.







Final Comments
Creating this guide was a fun way to share the similarities of Revhead's vehicles to real-life vehicles and research cars that may have inspired the designs of them. I came up with the idea to create this guide when I realized that the Magura was incredibly similar to the Iso Grifo.

I'm proud of how it turned out, but if you know any cars that are also similar or maybe even more similar to any of Revhead's cars, feel free to comment about it. Finally, I'll update this guide for every new car Creative Pudding adds into the game, and I'll recreate this guide for Revhead 2 when that game comes out. This is my first guide, so I hope you all enjoyed it!

This is set in Australia so the Buthanbang is likely a Ford XC falcon fairmont, the fairmont didnt come in a ute variant but the base XC did. It has the square headlights and styling. I also beleive the Narnoo is more likely a mid to late 80's model Nissan Patrol.

The Panania looks a lot like a 86/brz
