The Carbon Überschall 8 is a carbon variation of the Überschall 8. It now sports a chrome shaded exterior, carbon fiber body work and a boost type conversion from Speed to Stunt. The Carbon Überschall 8 differentiates from its brethren by trading 1 Speed and 2 Boost points for 2 Strength points. This is unlike the other carbon vehicles as they received additional points in every area without sacrificing anything. The Carbon Überschall 8 is actually more well rounded despite the loss in the Speed and Boost statistics. It still performs very well in Race events and the boost type conversion has made it more useful for Stunt Runs. The Carbon Überschall 8 is more maneuverable than its previous counterparts, making it even better for stunt runs. Due to its fast speed, the Carbon Überschall 8 has some problems getting around tight corners.

Resemblance[]
The Krieger Carbon Überschall 8 bares a strong resemblance to the Bentley Speed 8 with the exception of its paint job and overall length as the Bentley has a longer nose and tail.
The car also strongly resembles the Modified Super from Burnout 3: Takedown as well as the Criterion Racer GT and EA Racer GT from Burnout Revenge. It also appears in Burnout Dominator under the name of GT Racer. The Überschall 8's front end matches that of the Toyota GT-One's front.
