To do: |
This early map has some changes.
- There was supposedly an another bridge near the Museum shortcut in Downtown Rockport that leads to nowhere.
- This bridge appears in this cutscene (timestamp from 0:29 to 0:31) right of the screen before buying your first car.
- In Gray Point, a cut route from Cannery leads to fishing village easily.
- A bridge that connects from Rosewood Highway to Downtown Rockport was originally a tunnel.
- The curved road from Rosewood to Downtown Rockport is mirrored.
- The Rosewood Trail Park had roads less than in the Final.
- Highlander Stadium is somewhat different.
- The highway interchange uses diamond-like design.
- Most of the mountains near the Coastal & City are closer than being extended further in the final.
- Old bridge is not shown.

One of the earliest vinyl concepts for the hero's BMW M3 GTR. Made it into Carbon as a paintable body vinyl, and reappeared in NFS Unbound as part of the Volume 9 update, as an altered design mixed with the release tri-stripe design.

Pre-Xbox/PS2 OPM Demo#
+ This map image appears to be based off April 2005 map and it has few changes.
- Unknown building near Highlander Stadium. Skatepark?
- A curved route that leads from Docks to Rosewood has been moved.
Stutz Blacklists#
The earliest versions of the Blacklist 15 can be found in these promo artworks featuring Lohralee Stutz. A few new members can be seen here, however none of them appear in the game proper. (Mia mentions an "Eddie" once, but he never makes any appearances.)
