You CAN fix that MrGrado, I initially could not get the rear wheels to follow the fronts, but major suspension tweaks and being more gentle with the throttle got me a decent car to drive.
So many good cars in this game you could pick most cars and drive them all night.
Recon my fave is the Shelby Series 1, had one since GT2!
R390 Road Car is pretty awesome too, and the Zonda C12S & 7.3 are really satisfying too, and the Lambo Countach 25th Aniv, and etc etc etc...
 
Hands down my favourite is the Enzo Ferrari. Daytona black, BBS rims, aero package, + tuned to 900 hp. Driving around SPA is so much fun :dopey:.

Downside is it cost 500k to redo the chassis everytime and the races it participates in doesn't cover my bill. So i guess its just like a real life Ferrari; you may be able to afford buying it but you can't afford to keep running it.
 
I prefer small unmodified rwd sports cars prefer them to be <450pp on comfort soft or medium tires. Easy to reach their limits and mostly controllable at those limits. A partial list:
Honda sxxx(x) 500, 600, 800, 2000 like them all! Though the older ones really need a custom transmission I believe PD has the final drive ratio wrong 186 mph top speed ? really?
Mazda miata/mx5 and rx-8
Toyota mr2 spyder and GT86/FT 86
Lotus 96 Elise is my fave.
And the Honda Beat :)
 
What are your most favorite cars you own on GT5? Mine have to be the Caterham Super 7, Audi R8 LMS (Both variant) Audi R8 LMP 2001, and moree, can't think right now.

Loving the Jags. Just got the XJR9 and it's awesome. Also love the NSX-R LM Road Car. It's a beast on the track.
 
X2010, most of the C-cars, Le Mans, Ferraris, Mclaren F1 and some in special paint colours.
 
Oh so tuff to pick just one but if I had to it would be the race modified '69 Camaro z28 it's just a blast to drive a true sure footed beast followed up closely by the audi tt touring car

Before I start, welcome to GTPlanet! :D
Ive done a top 10 before in GT4, but top 5 in GT5 is a tough one :lol:
When considering the cars i have used the most for driving or just for laughs, the top 5 of cars I have liked driving IN GT5 are as follows:

1: Daihatsu Move SR-XX 4WD '97 "A Kei car, are you ridiculous?!" you may be thinking with shock, but no, it has become one of my absolute favourite cars to have a nice little runabout in, its very powerful for what it is (fully tuned reaches 180ish bhp) an 4WD allows it to be fantastic for both onroad and offroad driving :D

2: Isuzu 4200R A sorely underrated car mainly because of brand name, it is a genuinely unique car that has really caught my eye, it looks great with a nice colour (its standard silver isnt too bad though) and it is great to drive. Its hard to say much about a car hardly anyone knows about anyway, but try it out for yourself, the car does the talking better than I ever can :P

3: TVR Tamora '02 This is the car that got me into the drifting scene, and the car that made me appreciate the huge amount of skill drifting requires, as this car was one of the toughest to drift with its less then 1000kg weight and 508bhp, it was a pocket rocket! It makes as a great drift car!

4: Mazda RX-8 (Any Model) This car is one of the most underrated in the game, the road cars are so well balanced and rather nice looking, with that epic rotary whine to boot. However if you think that was awesome wait until you find the Mazda RX-8 Concept LM Race Car, that thing is one of the prettiest race cars in the game, has the classic livery used by the LeMans winning 787B an sounds almost like it. You coul say the RX-8 is the descendent of the 787B :D

5: Chaparral 2J This was a tough choice for 5th as there are many cars I like, but this one was the standout. This racecar was TOO GOOD for the can-am racing series it participated in and was banned from the series. It was an X1 from 40 years ago and my goodness does it look totally non-ordinary, its design, technical excellence if very much outside the box.. even if the car itself DOES look like a box :lol:

So there you have it, my top 5 cars of GT5 :)
 
1: Lamborghini Aventador, such a good looking car, great to drive and fully stock it sounds epic!

2: Lamborghini Gallardo, such a nice car to drive on twisty tracks.

3: Mercedes-benz SLR, just love it.

4: Ferrari 458, so much fun around the nurburgring.

5: Viper SRT10, sounds like a BEEP and goes like a........................

God it was hard choosing
 
Hmmm... top FIVE? out of 1040+ damn.. okay uh:

1:Toyota GT1 Race car (its my user name :sly:)

2: Jaguar XJR-9 (after the premium came out, i fell in love)

3: Mazda 787B (favorite ever since GT3)

4:McLarin F1 (its just amazing engineering at its best)

5: Maserati GranTurismo S (C'mon just look at that thing! :drool:)


That sounds about right...:dopey:
