Favorite car in the game so far

Love my little Caterham. So maneuverable and quite fast, just a blast to drive around pretty much any track.
 
Mine is the Porsche 911 GTX Falken. The one you get at level 15. Shame you can't use it in all events but it's perfect for mastering corners.
 
Laborghini Gallardo LP560-4 Works Converted. Just one word: Beast.
Vaughn Gittin Jr. can't even talk loud enough to be heard, the engine screams that loud.

Oh... And it completely dominated Chris Rado's Scion :D

Indeed! I just tried it today (untuned) for the first time on the Nordschleife and was blown away! Till now it's the car with the best default setup! 👍

I am not sure I can decide which is my favorite car! I always discover a new car which is amazing! I love my Corvette GT3, Maserati MC12 GT1 (oh, the sound!!), Alfa Romeo 8C, Porsche Falken and who knows what other diamond I will discover next! Also tuning truly 'unleashes' the potential of many cars! :D
 
Mine is at the moment a white Toyota A86 in specs, similar, to what Keiichi Tsuchiya's works TRD AE86 would be like (about 225hp, under 800kg, level 3 wide body - not the GT works body).

This machine is just pure enjoyment on short, tight courses.

Another favorite is at the moment a similarly tuned level 2 body kit Mercedes-Benz 190E - this machine handles just beautifully!

The 500 hp AE86, you win early in the game is another pure bliss machine - pretty fast and just a great challenge, to drive cleanly.
Once, you go to the edge, where you slightly get over the grip level of the rear in corners, touching the curbs, this is just an insane driving machine!

I am not so hot about the fancy modern cars, especially the super cars, which seem to be there for good measure as an NFS title.
The "classic" cars are just wonderful in S2U (the Mazda RX7 FC is another great car btw).

I am tuning a Cayman at the moment - it has fantastic handling out of the box in S2U, which is not a given, and might turn out as another favorite.

I spent most time, winning events in a tuned E46 M3 - great car with great sounds (those break disk squeaks are beautful!) - it is not the fastest but another one with wonderful, neutral handling.
 
Okay, two new favourites to add to my list. The works converted AE86, for one. It handles so spectaculary well that it's a total walk in the park to get it around even the most challenging courses. It's pretty easy to control for a works car, too. I love it.

But, even better, the 918 Spyder works converted. Oh. My. God. At [A]2106, it's the single fastest car I've owned or driven in the game. And, while it's pretty 'tame' for how much performance it has, it's pretty darn hard to push it to its limits, at least it is for me. It's even more of a beast then the works converted Gallardo. It is the ultimate track weapon, at least between the cars I've driven so far, but I still have to works convert something like the Huayra or the Apollo, so who knows...
 
Mercedes 190E, BMW E30 MW, Dodge Charger and Challenger, and the Stingray.

Gumpert Apollo - Best car so far. Late braking, best cornering, most stable handling.

I have to correct myself: Just tried the M3 E30 fully tuned (A 19xx) - Its THE Beast, absolutly blasting but sad it doesnt like corners that much.

Mitsubishi Evo IX, Works Modified.

Fast, handles well, tail likes to hang out to a controllable degree.


However, I recently purchased the Audi TT thinking that It could be a serious track day car. Then I found you can drop the R8 V8 into the machine and this puppy makes Vipers look like they are standing still!
 
After having tuned the Porsche Cayman to bet non works setup without engine swap or turbo, I have found another favorite ride - a rocket so to speak ;-)

Mazda RX7 F3C works tuned - this is a thrilling ride - pure joy, great balance, great sound.
Think of it as the 500hp AE86, but with better balanced handling and more power.
 
1.Mclarean MP4-12C (works GT1)
2. Audi R8 LMS
3.Caterham R500 superlight
5.Radical SR8
6.Porsche 918 (works) I have a livery for this car that I made witch is close to the RSR Gulf livery of the concept race version except I could not find Gulf as a Manufacture so I used RacingHart instead. AWESOME looking
 
Not my favorite car, but one that surpassed all my expectations: Bentley Continental GT Supersports!

It's a heavy, powerful car. Respect/drive it like a heavy car (timely braking etc.) and you can make it fly faster than you would expect and the handling is remarkably good - even stock with some tweaked suspension settings!

Good fun.
 
Lancia Delta Integrale, not the fastest one at all, but very much fun to drive. I find the "c" class most exciting to drive. Jeremy Clarkson wouldn´t agree with me on this, but speed isn´t everything ;-)
 
To be honest, it's already there - the Shelby 427 Cobra has been my favorite since I was a kid. If you asked me what else, I would have said the E-Type Jag, but now the DLC is out (or will be once PSN is up), so I'm pretty happy.
 
The Porsche Carrera 3.0 RSR completely stomped each and every favourite car I've had so far. It's friggin' perferct.

Even though other cars at C999 are way faster... My STi beats it by 5 seconds around Brands Hatch :indiff:

It's definitely one of the sexiest looking cars in the pack. I can only imagine how it sounds and handles :drool:

:drool: indeed. I was pretty suprised by how tame that thing is... But, the wheels are just sooo wide in the rear, it should be almost a given.
Plus... Dat ass!

If only it had a wing like this available:

That'd be awesomeness of unfeasible magnitude, though. Too much to be harnessed by any game, probably.
 
Don't have the DLC, as on a PS3 here, but I fell truly in love with the Caterham (fully tuned except the hideous works tuning and inappropriate tuning like turbo chargers or semislicks).

I love, how the car handles and can't wait, to drive the endurance races in a racing cockpit with my G25, as so far, I just made do with a DS3 controller.

I rolled the Caterham yesterday the first time in an awestrucking accident, after gotten clipped by a tinhooded opponent.
It was an horrifying experience for just racing a computer, reminding me quite a bit of the crashes in Richard Burns Rally, which always got the adrenaline pumping.

I wish for more Caterham models, to become available (the real racing mods and different engine versions with available swaps for Honda S2000, Hayabusa, 2.3L Ford, 1.6L Rover engines, etc… would be great).
 
I just realised for one reason or another, the Corvette Z06 has always been my workhorse car, in practically every racing game I've played since the car's real life launch a few years back.

It's like an old friend who's always there to help me out. It just never disappoints. 👍
 
I have a works DB9 and it is awesome! I played around with some of the setting and it handles extremely well.

I also love the MAserati MC12 and the Team NFS BMW Z4 GT3, especially the latter for its awesome looks!

If I had to choose I would choose the DB9.
