Best NA Car

Besides the NA F-1s?
Have a look here: NA Cars
Of course, that does not include cars that come with a turbo but have NA upgrades available. But looks like the Speed 12 is a good choice (Can't be bought though) with an azzkicking 798 HP to start with.

well it depends on what you think makes a car best...

personally i think the speedster is a hard car to beat for its handling abilities... but it is clearly not hte best if by best you mean fastest...

still if i had to buy an na car for driving ease and enjoyment i think this car would get my money...

if you wana speed and ahndling not worrying about price... nsx... speed 12 or 6... are great choices off the top of my head
 
hard to say really...
the vx220 is pretty good
there are plenty of others tho...
viper gts
ruf rgt
z-concept
etc
 
i thought we were talking about cars... not race cars lol... but that reminds me that the vette, mustang and viper are all great na cars... the mrs and the g limited mr2 are great... as well as hte supra szr i think... well the na one for that matter... and of course the 350 z ooooo.... the rx8 i would have to say is one of the worst na cars in the game... probably not that way in real life... rotary engines and mazda engineering = great car
 
bengee, how do you know we're not talking about race cars? GT_Addictions didn't say whether or not it had to be a race car, he just said that what is the best overall...;)

Personally, I'd have to say the Polyphony 001 is the best overall NA Car.

actually all the write-ups i have seen on the rx8 have said mild mild mild....

luckily they havent dropped the rx7, its making a comeback :D
 
really well that sucks for the rx8...

sorry i didnt mean to make you mad... but clearly a race car that is na is even better than a turbo one... no matter where the car is being made perform... the viper is for top speed and the vette or nsx of anything else including hte viper for winning races

not to mention better than non race car na cars... although some cars can keep up with the prof na racecars driven by ai
 
Speed Six. It's not an easy car to drive (particularly with a worked-over engine :D ), but it can win many races when you get a feel for it.

The NSX isn't really for top speed, it has better turning, and more often than not turbo cars have better performance and overall are better than the NA Cars.
 
ummmm i did not say nsx for top speed... read it again

i said viper for top speed

vette nsx or anything else including hte viper for winning races...

turbo or not to turbo ... seems to be your question...

i admit that turbo does have its advantages... such as lightweight for power and such on and so forth... all turbo does is porvide a way to cram more air into the engine in order to cram more fuel into it and therfore create more hp...

if i had a choice i would prefer a na car or a supercharged one...
i guess i am talking max 500 hp here and most likely around 300... a good na engine can and will be much more reliable than a turbo one... many different consideration must go into the poer output of a turbo engine... while na really only depends upon the revs and your gear... which are interconnected and what not...

a good na engine can be as light as a turbo one for the same hp... take the tvr tuscan for example... that car is light and that is the way to go... light car na engine...

i have nothing against turbo... as it is the means by which smaller and more fuel economic base engines can provide more power... on a smaller capital base...

it is my personal belief that na can and usually is the better adn more reliable method of power...

i believe i said something about turbo being the easiest way to reach top speed... just cause it is... but if i didnt i apoligize...

remember performance stats arent everything...

however if you look at my sig none of those cars are na cept for the rx8... and although i love many a na car... and idolize them... i dislike vipers for some reason... as well as nsx...

i find drifting with na much easier than with turbo... and its much smoother
 
The NSX's and C5R are the only high powered NA cars I have right now but either is fine. The nsx's seem to handle better while the C5R has a huge advantage in top speed and mid range to top end accceleration.
 
Oh, I misunderstood, because you didn't really break it up, and it didn't really make sense to me...

I also said that most of the turbo cars have better overall and top performance than the NA cars, but GT3 doesn't realistically sum up the lag in turbos, and it doesn't have supercharger options, which should be put into the GT4...
 
You're aobsolutly right, which is why turbo cars in GT3 overall perform better than naturally aspirated cars. However if the lag was a factor, and abnormal backpressure, and boost spikes, and the fact that turbo's heat up piston's like crazy, were all incorperated. Naturally aspirated cars would have a VERY prominent dominance in the game.

The perfect example of that, is that a 1000 or higher horsepower Supra, with just the "Turbo upgrade" has good acceleration, and good 400M times. Considering in real life, it wouldn't see 4-500HP before 80MPH

Yeah I know that, so is the Jaguar XK8, and the other Aston Martins as well, but I was just saying there's no option to supercharge a car...;)
