This is where everything goes neutral. Very good is very good and very bad is very bad. Not unlike others who claim very good is brilliant and very bad is good. I will base this review on the Esprit review I did a few months ago, which you particulary liked, Greycap.
Thanks for the great tune MFT.
If I am allowed to request a tune, could I please request a Mercury Cougar drift(preferably) OR Track car. I don't have any limitations(e.g. power/weight) if that's alright with you. Many Thanks,

Bah.. you've just went and ruined GT4 for me
I used to drive all cars on all tracks. I used to have some variety in my game... then I came across the Grim R34per and, well... I can see no way back. I'm a one car man. It's not really a bad thing to be honest.
I lurve Skylines. I lurve the Grim R34per 👍
*thank you*
I reckon with the people I've sent to you boys I should be getting a couple of complimentary tunes for the advertising.
Looking at your F6 though, I reckon my GME effort would take it down if I gave my R Spec a diet and R3's aswell. You can keep the 120hp more, I like having a disadvantage.
Want to test them back to back??

The Lexus GS-lineup has a reputation of luxurious, yet somewhat dull premium sedans. They're not exactly pretty to look at, nor cheap to buy. However, there is at least one thing that turns the tables for them. You see, underneath the bonnet they have the good old 2JZ from the Supra, a 3-liter twin turbo engine from last proper sportscar from Toyota. It's not slouch as it is, but hardly a match for the European muscle-sedans. This particular one is a wee bit different. It's based on the '00 GS300 Vertex Edition, and while it fulfilled the gap in the lineup nicely, it was still a boring car.
Until it received MFT-treatment.
Comfortable stock suspension was firmed up, chassis reinforced and tyres and rims replaced with items that seemed to belong to racing cars. And instead of two small turbochargers that delivered civilized power, it now has one, huge single unit that will deliver rocket-like acceleration. The power jumped up to insane 748bhp, and it was backed up by over 900nm of torque. You have to be awake when you drive this car, despite the respectable amounts of traction it has. Why? Because if.. No, more like WHEN you manage to lose the traction in the rear, this car will not forgive you.
