Looking for a typical car ...like a Toyota Camry
![areg5](https://farnsworth-prod.uc.r.appspot.com/forums/uploads/userpics/739/n5I7FJI4ITLBI.png)
I guess in the world of Daz everyone drives sports cars, race cars, SUV's, muscle cars, flying cars. All I want is a regular car that you would see on the streets. Ideally, a Toyota Camry, or a Honda Accord. Anyone know where I can find a car like that?

could not find a free camry or accord sadly
Those are great too!! Thanks!
If they don't have to be DAZ/Poser ready (i.e, you're going to apply your own materials, and rigging if needed for opening doors, etc.) then there is a HUGE selection at http://www.dmi-3d.net/index.html of nothing but various free 3d car models, and you can search by types, makes, and more.
And you'll need some way of converting them...most are Lightwave or 3ds format. But many of them are just 'normal' cars.
Yes, I should have been more specific as to why they'll need some work to use in DAZ/Poser. Also, a good many are .max format, which means you can't convert those without having 3DSMax. But there are a lot that are .obj, .3ds, .lwo and such. And there are a lot of free tools (even online ones) that can convert 3ds and lwo files into obj files for importing into DAZ.
Here's a quick conversion/render of one of the DMI cars...it has no interior and the conversion process could have been a little better (like take the time and do a little mesh clean up/tweaking)...most of them are great background/street filler material (low poly, not detailed mesh).
They vary a lot from model to model as to how detailed they are. Some are just simple hulls, some have simple interiors and details, some are VERY detailed. Just depends on the models. There are a lot of other sites too, with a variety of free automotive models, also of varying quality and details. Best to just google for "[make and model of car] 3d model free" for what you are looking for.
Here's a free Toyota Corolla from 3dWarehouse by someone named 'Import Guy', rendered in Octane for DAZ Studio.
There's always a bit (and sometimes a lot) of work involved in making SketchUp models fit for DAZ Studio, but the amount of free models there is simply staggering!
Cheers!
Oh, I forgot to mention: as an OBJ this great looking car is only 4.25 MB in size!
Scaling X to -100% will flip the steering...
I also need to move back the head light reflectors a tiny bit; after giving the glass some thickness they now intersect in a rather ugly way.
Mere details ; )
Cheers!
There were a couple of Toyotas for Poser on ShareCG not too long ago, too.
Here's the same free SketchUp Toyota in front of a restaurant, also from 3dWarehouse and also for free, made by Vitor Bandeira.
Please note that other than the (free) HDR image for lighting and background, not a single texture map was used for this render!
Cheers!
