Is the NFS Wiki's explanation on the player true?

  If I remember correctly, Rog is the guy that supplies the ultimate parts from the back part of the garage.

Back to my previous posts, the storyline from U1 to U2 to Most Wanted is OK, even to when the player returns to Palmont in the BMW from Most Wanted. The conflict is with Carbon's intro "prequel", where the player is already a good racer, but the Prima guide and collector's editions place the time of the "prequel" to "5 years before" (2001), which would be 2 years before Underground 1 was released. Then there's the issue of what car(s) the player has. U2's intro implies that the player completes U1 with the Skyline. After U2, the player can have a collection of 5 cars, but the Carbon prequel could still be after this, assuming that the Supra was either a better car, or that the cars that the player had from U2 would not be allowed in that Carbon prequel race. So the time line makes more sense if it's U1 (2003), U2 (2004), Carbon prequel, Most Wanted (2005), Carbon present day (2006). After that the player could have sold some or all of his cars in order to buy the BMW M3 GTR. Note that BMW made 10 "street" versions of the GTR in 2001 to comply with the American Lemans Series rule, since the Lemans cars were using V8 engines not available in the regular BMW M3 E46.

I'm not sure what to think on this. I think EA just didn't think the prequel through very well. The problem is, the racer is relatively good in the carbon prequel but in underground they either A, underestimate him, or B, he's just not experienced. I have another thought aswell, maybe the racer just wanted to prove he was good enough for the palmont race scene, and during that he had to run away to Olympic city probably ditching the car on the way. He didn't have any experience in racing in either city

How he could achieve it?

1. Stole it from the BMW Museum, however, if its only in germany, I don't think he could have chances to ship it to the US, cause stolen and or he would be with a mafia which planned it...doubtful at his age back then.
2. Was a Le mans racer (or similar) between 2001 and 2005...
3. He just had it, devs choose it without it getting a meaning of how he got it.
4.He took a street bmw and modified it to the exact race car, tho, I don't think he would have modified the interior as well, cause what if he wants to take a girl with? No seats...overall the interior adjustment wouldn't make sense.

As far as I know the BMW was used until 2003 and past that dunno...still it was a race car which couldn't be bought from a random.

But who says that U, U2 are meant to be with Most Wanted? There's no conflict unless you try to place Underground and Carbon together.. I look at the facts which sets U and U2 to have one story with their own characters and MW and Carbon have their own story with different characters without any relation to Underground-Series.In fact, Carbon prequel is set 5 years back, 2001 - I don't think the devs messed it up if they were supposed to be one lifeline, but they're not, that's why it doesn't work when you try to place U, U2, MW and Carbon in one lifeline.

The cop chatter with ryan cooper is just an easter egg, just like the mentions of Bayview in MW, easter eggs...

Carbon isn't making a conflict, it most likely answers MW and Carbon tell their own story with characters unrelated to Underground.

Oh and in Undercover, the player isnt working 'with' the police, the player is the police, to be exact an top FBI Undercover agent.

Yes he says underground, but this is a word not a name...it can relate to Underground-Series, but more likley as an easter egg or reminder or simply its a prank on the player in the meaning of calling him a wannabe racer who suddenly appears from nowhere to the racing scene to get up...its a down rating on the player like he's a piece of sh...that's like he says what did the underground poop here.

No, he couldn't give back the supra, he was gone for 5 years from Palmont and none of the characters has seen him they also still think he stole the money.

There are no Sponsors in U1...
In Underground 2 the racing seems to be between illegal and legal...there are track races of URL which are actually sponsored and then there are races on the street.Tho, its clear the racing scene in Bayview isn't just bad boys that do illegal races, its more organized as Rachel even has an office.

Pretty sure, the cash comes from the drivers in MW and Carbon, in the beginning of MW Mia and Razor argue about the bet for the race against Bull...

In Carbon, Darius paid the cops who to bust and who to let escape, it was a Sergeant that opened the alley for the player.The cops had the purpose to distract everyone, so switching bags wasnt the problem, it was just about timing, in fact I doubt anyone would think about the bar in that moment...tho Im not sure which crew member it was but someone saw the switch, Samson?

No, listen...in Undercover the player is and always was an Undercover agent!

At the end of Carbon's prequel, Darius is the only one to see the player and tells the player to leave town with that car. Since there was nothing to hide from Darius, the player could have returned (or shipped) the Supra back to Darius once out of town. Also how much was that Supra worth, and how many cops and how much money did it take to bribe all those cops versus what was supposed to be the cash prize money in that bag? Seems it would have been simpler to have stolen the bag before the race, but then there's no story.

The sponsors in U1 are implied in the intro to U2. Caleb is angry that the player is getting most of the sponsor money while both are still in Olympic City. It's not explained why Caleb also goes to Bayview, considering he was in Olympic City, and the player is now gone.

I only meant that in Undercover, the player was chosen for that specific assignment. It's not clear what type of work the player did before the Undercover storyline.

When the player returns to Carbon, you hear what I think is Kenji's voice stating that "things have changed ... territories are controlled by crews ..." .  This would imply that crews didn't own territories back in the days of the prequel, it was just racing (for cash in the race that was shown). So it would seem that in the prequel, Darius was planning to use the player as a scapegoat to cover up the theft of the bag of cash. However this would require the player not simply giving up when surrounded by cops, for Nikki to think of trying to get to the players car but only be able to toss in the bag and not make it into the players car, for the guy to knock down Nikki and switch the bags and get away with no one noticing (except Colin, who doesn't say anything about that until the player returns), and for the player through sheer dumb luck to choose to drive towards a car that moves out of the way at the last moment. Then again, to get the storyline to fit the racing game, some plot faults were simply ignored.

Crews existed in the past.
Since, all Bosses have the same cars from the past. Also, you can see 21st Street logo in Angie car:



Anyway, I think more things about that are said in cutscenes, I just need to find a video containing all cutscene with subtitle (or record it by myself)

This might refer to that crews did exist, but there was no battle for territories back then.
