About
The Bestselling Car Mechanic Simulator series goes to a new level!
Car Mechanic Simulator 2018 challenges players to repair, paint, tune and drive cars.
Find classic, unique cars in the new Barn Find module and Junkyard module. You can even add your self-made car in the Car Editor.
Build and expand your repair service empire in this incredibly detailed and highly realistic simulation game, where attention to car detail is astonishing.
All this with new, photorealistic graphics. Featuring more cars (40+), more tools (10+), more options and more parts (1000+) than ever before. It’s time to roll up your sleeves and get to work!
Car Mechanic Simulator 2018 also includes car auctions where old cars are available for resale or purchased for your collection. With the inclusion of photo-mode, you can take stunning before and after photos, and the game’s infinite number of randomly generated missions will keep you more than busy (and dirty).
Each mission offers its own unique challenge of varying difficulty and time constraints to meet. Additional tools are available for purchase if needed. You can eventually upgrade your garage to include specific equipment such as lacquer sprayer or a parts warehouse.

Когда брал Car Mechanic Simulator 2018, думал, что это будет спокойная игра, где иногда нужно менять масло и колодки. Через несколько часов я уже снимал двигатель, коробку передач, подвеску и половину кузова ради одной детали стоимостью 20 долларов. Самое забавное, что игра заставляет чувствовать себя настоящим механиком. Ты начинаешь запоминать названия деталей, искать неисправности по симптомам и радоваться, когда наконец находишь ту самую сломанную запчасть. Единственный минус — иногда ремонт одной машины превращается в настоящий квест по поиску детали, которую ты случайно снял час назад и забыл куда положил. Отличная игра для тех, кто любит машины или просто хочет расслабиться под музыку после тяжёлого дня.
10/10 game. i had alot of fun, BUT. I have one single question. ... how in the living F*** did they even drive over to my workshop. Their whole ass f****** engine is f*****, gone, dead. Tires? No rubber at all. Suspension? Idk how that s*** was even holding up. Brakes? God was stopping that piece of junk. Cooling system? More like heating system. Axle? Brown as my toilet after Taco bell. but besides ALL OF THAT... W game, would recommend
spoko gra
arkaya şarkı attın mı felfeci oyun kafayı iyi dağıtırsın
not for me.
The game is great, it's very relaxing, and genuinely helps me memorize automotive parts and locations, functions, etc. From what I know, it's a pretty accurate game in terms of real automotive anatomy. It's fun and runs pretty smooth for how low my specs are (165 fps a majority of the time [with the listed specs below]). I do recommend it if you like slow paced sandbox games or you want to learn about automotives. I was lucky enough to get it when it was free!
pega carro velho, arrumar carro velho, vender e se arrepender, comprar outro carro velho
Слишком дорого
you need to be an engineer to play the game normally
A Love Letter to Rust and Wrenches: An Honest Review Let’s be real for a second: Car Mechanic Simulator 2018 isn't just about fixing digital cars. It’s a therapeutic escape. It’s about that incredible feeling of finally finding that one tiny, 94% worn-out rubber bushing that was causing the whole engine to knock. If you’ve ever spent hours in real life looking for a dropped 10mm socket, this game will speak directly to your soul. 🛠️ The Joy of Getting Your Hands Dirty The technical depth here is astonishing, but what makes it special is how natural it feels. Taking apart a V8 engine block piece by piece feels like solving a beautiful, greasy puzzle. • The Magic: The diagnostic process is genuinely rewarding. Using the compression tester or taking the car to the test track to isolate a suspension issue feels like real detective work. • The Grind: Yes, putting back 50 bolts on a cylinder head can test your patience. But honestly? That’s exactly what real mechanic work is. It’s meditative, if you have the right mindset. 🏎️ From a Rusty Garage to a Dream Workshop The progression captures that classic "started from the bottom" feeling. You begin with barely enough tools to change oil, and eventually, you’re bidding on absolute gems hidden in junk yards or forgotten barns. Restoring a completely rusted muscle car and seeing it shiny on the Dyno is a massive dopamine hit. 📉 The Reality Check: The Driving We need to talk about the test drives. The driving physics are... well, stiff. It feels a bit like driving a brick on ice. But let’s be honest: we didn’t install this game to compete in Forza. We came here to build, tune, and bring dead engines back to life. 🏆 The Verdict: Is It Worth Your Time? Absolutely. CMS 2018 has a soul. It respects the car culture and rewards your curiosity. It’s the perfect game to play while listening to a podcast or your favorite music after a long day. Did this review help you look under the hood? If this honest breakdown resonated with you, please consider leaving a Like 👍 or honoring it with a Steam Award 🏆. It really helps keep this workshop running and the community growing. See you on the garage floor, chief!
