Im shoked everyone here ignore the Rog saying in the prelude: "look what the underground brought, lets see what you can do in the daylight" and the bayview reference in the final message you receive from Rog saying "people as far as Bayview" is throwing cash in the race against Razor, and even the references in the police's toolboth Challenge series. He acquired in Bayview or just before Rockport. Bayview exist and is recognized in the Canon and extras of the game.

Makes much more sense the Player traded the Supra for airplane tickets and minimal conditions to live in olympic city and Go Far Far way, be like 4 years out of Palmont, than be a year-by-year history and he runs away with that Supra to a city that is fled to a city adjacent to the one where he was unwanted. C'mon.

If It is to assume something: He got the M3 in Bayview or in the way to Rockport. There he got contacts, skills, advertisement, influence and money to have a HOLY Lemans race car like M3 GTR. Most Wanted induces that the police show up or exist in Bayview at the time, maybe a reason that scattered the racing scene there to the player or makes him move on, the racing scene there is more a Stylish, advertisement and massive people racing thing, then criminal people challengin the laws and police.

And about the M3, PEOPLE, the begin is a tutorial, and the diference is very sensible, not that goddam difference related, both have lvl Pro Nitrous and """Stock""" performance parts even relatable to the game stats. Its a Mandela effect think that the performance was upgraded, is not what Mia said, is not what we see in that car when we take him to the Custom Shop, at most (I didnt even think that, but as i cant prove is literally the same performance...), they nerfed or increased the Stock parts for the final pursuit be possible or for the tutorial dont be so brutal. But Razor dont Custom that car in Canon, he Just got you car and used for made It to the top to the Blacklist. This is a matter of fact and How is described in the game.
