The LP640 is quick, but its weight is a disadvantage in the corners so the ACR, ZR1, GTR, & 458 can most likely take it on with ease. The LP560-4 though, is a bit of a different animal.
Depends on the model. VTs won't do too much, but a SE30 or GT shouldn't have issues staying ahead or with the pack.

Nah, see, the pause was not long enough, the accent was all wrong, and you are missing an exclamation mark. It should be:First Nissan GT-R which happens to be my favorite car . . . in the world. (see what I did there)
Then probably a 458 Italia, just too sexy to resist.

The Murcielago isn't a even a sports car? That's 🤬 rubbish, there are plenty of faster cars but to say it isn't a sports car is pretty ridiculous.
The LP640 is as fast round the Bedford Autodrome West Circuit (as an example) as the Mercedes SL65 AMG Black Series, KTM X-Bow and Ferrari California.

Not a good example, as the SL65 & California aren't exactly super fast. In fact, looking at that circuit's times, most of the cars listed here as faster cars (GT-R, 430S, etc.) are.
The LP640 is fast, there's no doubt, but again, it's weight doesn't help it. As mentioned before, the LP560-4 (& LP550-2) are a lot more capable of tackling the competition.
That's the point I was trying to make, supercars are pretty sporty.
Fair point, I misunderstood and thought you meant it wasn't sporty at all. I should have made it clear I wasn't claiming the LP640 to be one of the dominant cars and just that it is a supercar and therefore pretty sporty, my bad.
Ferrari California is definitley a GT but the Mercedes SL65 AMG Black Series is classed as a supercar according to the EVO website.
Anyways... none of the above will be dominant cars in GT5

What will be the dominant car would in my opinion depend on the tyre model and how often tyre wear is used.
If the tyre wear is not used the heavy but stable 4wd cars might be the most common, while if the wear is used the lighter cars might get a bigger share.

I have been on this website enough, so i don't what manufacturers are going to be in the game. As for the dominant question, i think all the different tracks/tuning set ups will cause no cars to be Exceedingly better than another.
Looking forward to the r32 GTR, Evo 9, Evo 6, Lamborghini Diablo, Murcielago, Gallardo and or Balboni edition. (that is, if any of them are in the game)
I can't really hand pick a few cars out of a 1000, so it's not probably an accurate representation.
Lol, if anyone has played NFS:Shift, The Zonda R will own anything and everything. The only place i remember a car having a jump on it, is the Veyron, on the massive straight on the ring (der-roe i think it is).

Dominant cars. Yes, trust me.

I am just so fascinated by the possible matchups. I love how each country has such great contenders. It's beautiful.

Lots of good ideas so far, really impressed with how far my thread went
Since GT5 has been pushed back again, I'm gonna hope we get the Gallardo SV
It has an LP-nameplate but I don't recall it.
I think the ZR1 will be competitive in the right hands only. That much Rwd muscle might be a liiiittle too much for a casual fanger.
As is the story with the Koeniggsegg and S7.
The inclusion of Mosler would further add to the madness PD...

C'mon, the SL65AMG Black series is tremendously fast, but it can't keep up with the other monsters you listed, why not use the SLR McLaren, which is faster and entirely made of carbon? The corvette ZR1 must be a asphalt eating demon, on the straights it will be the king, but in corners it must be in the right hands to perform well.

Yeah, the ACR will be a tough match altough I don't really like all that aero stuff, it loses a bit of personality when compared to the standard viper, but who said fast cars must be beautiful? Ugly and fast, in the infamous chaparral style. 👍
When it comes to the classic dominant car, the Yellowbird won't be the fastest, but for sure it will provide the greatest amount of fun to drive.

The ACR VS ZR1 battle will be the premiere matchup in the west. They're both so strong in different ways. The ZR1 has amazing grip and record braking stopping power. It's superfast in a line. But the Viper is incredibly quick on circuits and stays planted to the ground in and out of turns. But its top speed is poor @ 178 MPH compared to the ZR1's 205 MPH top speed. In GT5, it will come down to the skill of the driver.

But then the Vipers going to be faster (generally speaking) through the corner and most straights do not require a 200+ top speed.
For example, take a corner with a 60mph optimum apex speed. The viper is going to be much easier to maintain that speed mid-corner, when the 'vette might feel a bit squirrely. Then the viper will have a higher exit speed, though the Chev's gonna out muscle it on the way to the next corner. Where the process will repeat itself over again.
I'm starting to feel that this will be the argument of GT5 in terms of cars.
With the Zr1 being the straight-line blitzer that it is, the acceleration could be a problem for those running a DS3 in, say, button form. Where you'd spin every 10 seconds. But most casuals will have the game on standard physics, where the 'vettes power might become easier to put down, thus providing more go in and out of corners. Making the viper overkill...

I think if this car is included:
It will be the most used car for hotlapping at this track:
Geez, at least in europe it`ll be it
Just imagine the thrill of driving Ayrton Sennas Mclaren in Cockpit View around Monaco, trying to catch the masters pole position time...
I guess its simple to say which car will dominate online. Sadly, The fastest and easiest to drive of course. It has a reason why almost everyone uses the Clio Tuned or GT LM...

Well, if the game comes out only in Fall as speculated, I will have the money and courage to get my G25, otherwise if the game comes out before that I willl play usng a DS3 and with pro physics, no TCS and ASM off, you have no idea of what 2 hours with a DS3, the same track and the same car, can do for your lap times. You just memorize how much speed you can enter on every turn and how much throttle you can put on the exit, that alone makes you feel the limits of the car just by looking. It's not hard at all if you have time to spend on this.
EDIT: I always play in the analog sticks, it's impossible to play in professional using the buttons.

The Viper is historically bad in gt games (far worse than it is in real life)
the dominant car will be something kaz likes and is biased towards like a skyline or the ford gt (see prologue) or possibly the SLS seeing how much it has been used in the games promotion so far.
I REALY hope there isnt a far superior car in each class especially online because it will end up everyone using the same car.
