Worth a buy?
I've never really had an interest in cars and the parts they contain, but I seem to have an interest now. I'd like to learn more about the components of a vehicle and how they operate. Does this game provide an intriguing aspect that provides the learning of a car and does it have a tutorial?
Thanks!

It's a decent game but becomes way to grind-y towards the higher levels. As far as learning parts of a car it is pretty good, however there are lots of parts and pieces missing from a real car, so don't expect to use this as a guide to be a mechanic in real life.

If you like cars then yes its worth the buy, its not perfect but it sure is fun to build cars that you will never own.

Its just a game, don't expect total realism go buy a real car for that.

The cars do look good in game and there are loads of mods to add into the game. Im not gonna sell you the game but its a game i like going back to do a build every now and then.

I agree the game is a bit grindy at the start, its not till you get to 35th the game really becomes good, its missing alot of parts and the cars spin off the track in most cases.

On the good side they do update and add more parts to the list and fix certian bugs but keep the most annoying for some reason. My biggest turn off about this game is the wheel spin, it just makes driving the cars useless.

Thank you for the responses, guys! This has helped me decide whether or not I'd buy it and I think I'm going to. I'll give it a try!

It is just a game being a car mechanic nothing more, nothing less, and NO nick picking complaints about it. So in short, just like you have a game for, golf, base ball, football, farming, ect, ect, ect..

Here is a mechanic game. There is no such thing as a training simulator for auto mechanics, that is more of a hands on thing. But you will get a understanding of what the parts are, how to find the problem and fix it, and may learn a few things about cars, since the parts are modeled based on the real thing. And use problems that happen for real. Can do many things in the game.

I recomend it...

It's not perfect, but if you want a game to work on cars, this really is the best out there. Go for it.

Was worth to me, 648 hours so far.

Well if you're like me and didn't know much about cars other than how to drive them, play this for a few hours and you'll feel a LOT more confident the next time your mechanic tells you something.

Sort of, yeah. The game helps you understand the structure & design of cars & the names of parts, but you'll have to do a little more research to understand what each part does and why.

Get CMS 2015 instead. This version is broken.

What's broken about it?

Well not broken but interface is optimized for console and not pc so it's unplayable.

Speaking as a dedicated PC gamer who really doesn't like controllers, I don't see it. Stripping cars and putting them back together with a mouse seems perfectly natural. Plus, it was released on PC first, wasn't it?

What feels console-ish to you?
