Disappointing cars

Mike Rotch · Jun 13, 2003

Which cars are the biggest let down? The ones that you think have so much potential, but after spending 100 G's on em, go like a tug boat? For me the TRD3000 is right up there. One of the most awesome looking cars in the game, but too heavy to mix it with a CTR2, and toasted by most cars up to 450hp. The Avenger and Intrepid are also tin cans in my book

RB26DETT · Jun 13, 2003

22b, nsx (in terms of power and sound), MR2, Impreza rally car 99' (no torque), Supras and 3000GT (too heavy)
i'll think of more

The aston martin db7 was a disapointement, the v8 vantage I had already realized it was heavy but I was expecting the db7 to be a bit more nimble.

hsrdragger · Jun 13, 2003

the Jagaurs are the same way, but i guess they are more luxury than sport

Joey · Jun 13, 2003

3000GT VR-4, 328i, GT90, DB7s.

RazorGTR · Jun 14, 2003

3000GT, Vipers, NSX's, and even some of the skylines.

I say some of the Skylines as the base models even when done up do not react anything like the real cars. They turn like pigs in the game and that is so untrue. I bit disapointing since the game is developed in Japan.

koolsax · Jun 14, 2003

Yea, definatly GT90s.

Mike Rotch · Jun 17, 2003

careful about the gt90 guys. Bla might come after you with a chainsaw :nervous:

Just kiddin

bla · Jun 17, 2003

Yeah I might.
But seriously, if you´re complaining about the stability in the car just lower a lot the front/rear bound/rebound and max up the ascc. As simple as that just try it. If you dislike him for other reasons then...

Back on topic, 528i and 840ci. I was expecting more HP after tune up

100%. That vantage is the biggest lemon ever. After 500k out of the bank, my 71 charger flame grilled it :irked:

The Vantage, almost all the BMWs, the Ford Mustangs (except the SR Widebody), and the Spoon Civic.

i like the civic. its so light and teh red line.
i have a soft spot for civics

The Impreza 22B leaps most readily to mind. Fifty Gs for that kind of understeer? No thanks. I'll buy a regular STi for thirty, put twenty into it and give you a far superior machine.

The FIAT Coupe, but don't tell ving I said that! I was expecting more power out of this FIAT when it was fully tuned. It was a little disappointing.

Unbeaten Menace · Jun 18, 2003

The RX-7' s are kind of a let down.

LoneWolfe · Jun 19, 2003

right now for me it is the MR2, that may change but right now itis crap.

Burnout · Jun 19, 2003

The MR2 is a little to heavy but I still play it because its freakin cool looking....The GT90 used to be my favorite car, it had a few stability problems and that is one of the reasons its just a nice car now. RX7s...well....they look cool and

The RX-7' s are kind of a let down.

do you mean by that¿ For the power they do have I think is used wisely...

Of course, just a little bit of personal oppinion

.

Pupik · Jun 19, 2003

They didn't give my Neon ACR enough max power. Oh well, there's always hybrids...

I don't see how the RX-7s could be disappointing; many of them can kick the computer's JGTC GT500 cars into the weeds. And how can you hate an FC Infini III that can get dirt tires?

The GT90 is a lot of fun, it just needs a 6th gear.

LoneWolfe · Jun 20, 2003

i think we all can agree on this:
The daihatsu midget II is the best car in the game, no disappointment there :lol:

Or even the fiat 500 :lol:

bla · Jun 20, 2003

Hey hey hey hey hey HEY.. the fiat 500 is coool :cool:

LoneWolfe · Jun 21, 2003

mach-9 · Jun 21, 2003

what do u think of the Subaru 360ss

---

a hahhahahaha :lol:

by the way, it has a better look than the 500R

LoneWolfe · Jun 21, 2003

truthfully, i'm not sure if i've heard of it, i'll have to check it out sometime.

mach-9 · Jun 22, 2003

yes

--it's actually a cute mini car,also an RR one '69

and it can be tuned up to 145ps ,with a stage 2 turbo in it :cool:

but

the most turbo-lagging one :dopey:

especially if you win the one with the extra ashtray in it, like Lefrog said how

lefrog · Jun 23, 2003

The problem is....the second ashtray makes the balance dodgy in the fast corners (20 MPH+)....

BTW...do you know why Fiats have heated rear windows?....

To keep your hands warm when you have to push these

To correct the balance, i usually put fuzzy dice on the rear view mirror

LoneWolfe · Jun 24, 2003

i bet bird poo on the windshield could mess everything up hey?

Mike Rotch · Jun 24, 2003

does upset the aerodynamics a bit. the cd goes from 0.88 to 0.92, so top speed goes down from about 31mph to around 25mph. But you buy this car for it handling, not its top speed
