FF car with best power:weight ration

[gibson]

whats the FF car has the best power to weight ratio when stock? i just started a new GT4 game, and i want to try getting to 100 % without buying anything but tires and oil

 

[Rotary Junkie]

Focus RS, to my knowledge.

What about the Golf GTI?

 

[Rotary Junkie]

Far and away too heavy, and it's got less power. Good car, but not the best power:weight, which is what the TC wanted.

I think it's the DC5 kouki.

 

[Rotary Junkie]

Nah, Focus is lighter...

 

[dimplz]

DC2 is lighter than the DC5 and good handling

unfortunately they're right, Focus is fastest and best to drive if you have good throttle control. however, it's too light in the game, the actual car weights 1175kg. I' assuming that some vehicle weights are actually dry weights, without oils and fuel or coolant.

The FF car with the overall best stock power-to-weight ratio in the game is the Citroen Xsara Rally Car.

The FF road cars with the best stock power-to-weight ratio are, in order:
1. Spoon Civic Type-R (214hp/820kg - 261.0hp/tonne or 3.832kg/hp)
2. Trial Celica (280hp/1140kg - 245.6hp/tonne or 4.071kg/hp)
3. Ford Focus RS (217hp/1050kg - 206.7hp/tonne or 4.839kg/hp)
4. Spoon Integra Type-R (217hp/1080kg - 200.9hp/tonne or 4.977kg/hp)


This brings up two important points. Firstly, this is why I (amongst others) created the complete GT4 car database - so that anyone can download it and look up these facts for themselves. Secondly, though it's gratifying that so many people are willing to help, please do not give the answer if you do not know the answer.
