Carlos is a character in Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition. He is a Mexican lowrider enthusiast who drives an Emerald Green 1978 Chevrolet Monte Carlo with a license plate reading "CARLOWS".

The player must defeat him or Bishop, along with Vanessa's first encounter to progress the story of the game. If Vanessa and Bishop were beaten beforehand, he can wait until as late as after the U.S. Championship Series, but opponents will drive high-end exotics or Class A Sport Bikes to match the player's level if he was challenged late in the game.

Background

Carlos is one of the first challengers the player meets in San Diego. He is a member of the American Royalty Car Club. The player goes through three races with him in order to earn the right of access to the American Royalty Car Club. Carlos drives a Emerald Green 1978 Chevrolet Monte Carlo with a plate reading "CARLOWS". Initially, the player must race him, Vanessa and Bishop in the Rites of Passage Ordered Race.

The player must defeat him or Bishop, along with Vanessa to progress through the early part of the Career Mode. If the player defeats Bishop first, then defeats Vanessa, Carlos becomes a purely optional racer, however, the opposition may drive faster vehicles, especially, if he waits out until the part where Class A vehicles are unlocked, opponents will drive the Saleen S7 (naturally aspirated), Lamborghini Murciélago VT, Chrysler ME Four-Twelve, McLaren F1 LM, Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR, or Pagani Zonda C-12 S, although there may be races where all other opponents drive the 1978 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, giving the player a huge advantage if one of the six exotics are driven by the player, and 4 nitrous have been installed to their exotic car.

Introduction

When a new racer appears, Oscar or Apone will say a phrase regarding new said racer.

Oscar

1. "Nice, Carlos is gonna bring you with a bit of that Classic Monte Carlo '78 flavour. You in the office now, Holmes, come with it."

   Oscar - Carlos Quote 1.

2. "Look at that, nice to see a '78, man, you gotta win this thing! That car is classic, and that guy Carlos driving it, is a punk!"

   Oscar - Carlos Quote 2.

3. "You can beat this dude Carlos, man. He got a beautiful '78 Monte Carlo, but he ain't too smart."

   Oscar - Carlos Quote 3.

4. "Carlos is been racing these streets for a long time, he knows this city better than most, so pay attention, or this guy will embarass you."

   Oscar - Carlos Quote 4.

Baby

1. "Nice, he gonna bring it with a bit of that Classic Monte Carlo '78 flavour. You in the office now, Kid, come with it"

2. "Look at that! Nice to see a '78, man. You gotta win this thing, that car is a classic, and that guy Carlos drivin' it , is a chump!"

3. "You can beat this dude Carlos, man. He got a beautiful '78 Monte Carlo, but he ain't too smart."

Unused quote

Phrase going to be said by Apone, but since Carlos never reappears in-game, this phrase goes unused.

"- Carlos again? That guy doesn't know when to quit, now he back with some more Muscle!" -Apone

Apone was saying that Carlos would be going to drive a Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, maybe the 1981 model, the same one Leo uses. But since Carlos never reappears in-game, it's unknown what version of the Z/28 he was going to be using, perhaps, the 1969, while Leo drives the 1981 model.

"- Look, you already schooled this fool once, and you can do it again, but be careful, he got a really powerful Z/28." - Apone

Trivia

• The player may be able to skip Carlos' first encounter until they get a faster vehicle, (eg. the player may skip Carlos after defeating Bishop, as the player only needs to defeat one of Carlos or Bishop, along with Vanessa to challenge Phil.
  • However, if Carlos waits very long, his other opponents could be driving the higher-end of the Exotics or the Class A Sport Bikes.
• 2 unused audio files that are present in the game prove that Carlos was supposed to make a second appearance in Atlanta driving a Chevrolet Camaro Z/28.
  • It is unknown whether he would drive the 1969 or 1981 model year.
• If the player raced Carlos after the U.S. Championship Series, it is possible to get the following races that are typically exclusive to the said series.
  • Vanessa's races East Side and Jumps Galore
  • Spider's races Go! and City Loop.
    • This was confirmed after one run raced Carlos and got the City Loop race in the rain.
