I have seen both the Leno Tank car and the Silvia. The Silvia is a monster drifter, whereas the Leno is exactly what it says. I am not sure about the others, I know there is a Carbon Mazda 6 though....
 
I'd love to see what tuning options are available for the Tank Car. Get a massive turbo on that sucker, and watch it fly down the strip!
 
Absoulty not, I remember Leno saying something like there is 6 inches of Titanium (SP) on the body, and the block and heads were reinforced enough to be shot with rifles without any damages. Also the entire car is made of titanium and iron.

That thing weighs next to nothing... Just a shot below the 4 metric tonne mark... It's a feather !...

Regardless its still a fat mama jama. :P
Heavy like hell and probably not very good at turning.
Imagine driving it at Nur......it would suck!:nervous:
 
I read somewhere that the Tank Car was 16 feet long, weighed over 3000kg, and had a 6 foot long engine from an M-47 Patton tank that produce 800 horsepower at the rear wheels.

It's a typical American car..

You'd think most of you guys would be used to cars that can't turn :p

cute. Sorry, but most of us "Americans" dont like NASCAR, or drag racing.
 
I do know Pimp Racer has 5 pics of the Amuse car, 3-7 of the Blitz, 3-5 of the HKS Silvia, and a few of the Tank Car. I don't know if he has any videos yet, though.

Yup I got alot of pictures of the blitz! and a few of the ones you mentioned I think. And video nope. GTP is the only place I get my videos from.
*EDIT* Forgot. For you new members or guests try this site for pictures. I "back" them up because the original owner takes them down every 24 hours.

Pimp, your site is now officially in my Favorites.

BTW, please let me know if you get any more pics of that Amuse or Ciztech or Audi Le Mans.

Thanks.

Say what you want about GT4, but we can all agree to the huge convergence of cars and such from as far back as 1886 and as far ahead as the future. If you ask me, I'd probably take that Tank Car to race around New York. The long roads with short kinks should provide some b*tchin' ass-hauling up in the the Big Apple. The inclusion of drift cars give GT fans more cars to race with. While you may not have a pure drifting mode (set me straight if I'm wrong), it still doesn't mean you have a drift car with no drifting track. Or do I have to remind folks of the HKS drag race cars in GT2? A car is a car is a car. Just take it to the track, player! Run what you brung, man! It's an American tradition you can have with a Japanese game. Did that sound right? :confused:

Only one I probably haven't seen was the Amuse Carbon R. So I'd be pretty interested in seeing pictures of it later.
