Vanessa is one of the first racers encountered in Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition, and is a member of the Unbeatable Street Racers.
Her license plate reads "HOTLIPS", or "HOTLMBO" for her Lamborghini Murciélago Coupe.
Description[]
When the player first challenges Vanessa in San Diego, she is driving a pink Mitsubishi Eclipse GT-S (D53A). After defeating her, the player gains the right to race in the "Unbeatable Street Racers Club." Eventually, the club will set up the City Tournament (San Diego), due to the possibility the player started with the 1978 Chevrolet Monte Carlo or 1964 Chevrolet Impala (Gen. 3), or only owned the 2005 Dodge Magnum R/T (REMIX version only), to give the player a Lexus IS300, one of the fastest Class D cars in the game.
After completing one of the San Diego tournaments and defeating Phil, she comes back again, this time with an upgraded color shift turquoise-pink Eclipse. However, despite being taught a lesson, Vanessa loses again, and allows the player to proceed towards Atlanta.
She doesn't appear for a while afterwards until the player gets to the U.S. Championship Series, where she is driving a Lamborghini Murcielago, the prize of the series, with a plate reading "HOTLMBO". Her two race layouts are East Side and Jumps Galore, which cannot be encountered in City Races or Club Races, but may be encountered in Carlos or Bishop (if one of them was left unbeaten until after the U.S. Championship Races).

Trivia[]
- Vanessa's second Mitsubishi Eclipse GT-S is outfitted with a pink trim as seen on it's spoiler that cannot be equipped by the player.
- Her Mitsubishi Eclipses' plate HOTLIPS is a reference to the car itself, while HOTLMBO is a reference to her Lamborghini Murciélago Coupe.
- When putting custom paint on the Mitsubishi Eclipse, the player will receive the paint color Vanessa's Eclipse uses.
- Selecting Custom Gloss or Metallic, gives the player the paint of her first Eclipse
- Selecting Color Shift gives the player the second Eclipse's paint job.
- Some hidden data suggests she could be driving a Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec (R34) at a later rematch, most likely in the U.S. Championship Series representing the Unbeatable Street Racers until it was eventually decided that all club representatives must come in an Exotic car for the U.S. Championship Series.
- Had she driven one, it would have a plate of "HOTLINE".
