The Veyron. Although I must admit the challenge of driving it did prove to be fun in the S license test.
 
Oversteer beasts: Dodge Viper and TVR Speed 12 (not the Cerbera) and Nissan R390 GT1 (the GT2 one)
Understeerin' rides: HKS Drag 180SX
 
For GT5, it was the RUF CTR "Yellowbird". I was dead last in a shuffle race event because of it. (RR = recipe for disaster if weight is not 50:50)

For GT6, the Auto Union Type C Streamliner. Understeer when going slow and oversteer when going fast. Even the camber randomly changes when it's used if previously set. Did manage to do 46 seconds on Goodwood with it stock and I have a replay of it that I will keep forever. :sly:
 
SVX
Sunfire > Anything
I loath the Sunfire. It is car hell. It's slow and handles worse than a boat. I'd rather do a lap of the Nurburgring in a 1966 Beetle than a Sunfire GXP

And I think you missed the point of my post a tad.
 
The Lancia Stratos. It is hell, can't even control the damn thing;

Very true. The Stratos has an immense amount of oversteer, even on the grippiest tyres and stock amount of power. I love it as a car, because of its rally pedigree, but it's certainly been one of the more frustrating cars to drive for me. It can be managed, but only with very controlled use of throttle. As a result, driving one is never a relaxed experience. This is me being picky, but I hate the sound sample used on the racing exhaust for that car! These days, I just keep my cars on the stock exhausts. I'm ok sacrificing a bit of performance just to make my car sound correct! :P
 
For me, the only, and most frustrating car to drive is the Mercedes SLR McLaren in GT6, tuned to the specs of 1300kg & 550bhp for a racing series in team Mercedes partnered with the SLS as my teammate, full aero, wing, the lot, and honestly I'm a very good driver.

As I was competing in this racing series, the understeer was unbarable, it took me over 4 months of fine tuning to eliminate most of the understeer, but would never be like the other cars within that racing series my god, tuning it was very hard, and driving it was even more annoying, too much understeer, with such little to resolve it because there is next to no front downforce, in fact I genuinely belive the front of the car has lift, though nonetheless, I was still able to set the fastest laps, barely, with a struggling car.

As good looking as it may be, and even though it had a top speed advantage in the racing series, it was totally not my style of car, I regret joining team Mercedes, but I can't turn back.

My suited style of handling is extreme oversteer, especially terminal oversteer, but I can control it in the fact that I need no countersteer, that is where I can by far be at my fastest, I could care less about straight line speed, I ONLY care about corneirng capability, hance why some of you here may have seen me on Nurb lobbies driving s*** cars, and destroying everyone just by cornering hahaha!

That damn Auto Union Streamline. I looked forward to the return of the car in GT6 so much, but with the ridiculous amount of understeer that car has, I can't appreciate it in the slightest.

The understeer is justified because of the car's focus on record-breaking speed, however.

It has alot of oversteer actually because of the tiny tyre size & the MR layout, but there is next to no turning circle due to the wheel covers as it is a top speed car.

I dar you to keep the accelerator jammed down from entry to exist on Special Stage ROute X, coz thats a dailoy for me! :sly:
 
I feel the Diablo GT2 doesn't even live up to the GT2 title it bears. It can be saved by changing the type of tyres it wears from front to rear, but there is increased risk driving that vehicle because of its imbalance.
 
Lancia Stratos left a sad mark on me...worst experience ever in a racing game. It was the very first thing that came to my mind...I still remember the first "test" with it. Simply out of control.
 
the diablos, any zonda before the Zonda R, and the Lancia stratos...those are the few I can think off of the top of my head.

No back end grip whatsoever even through sweeping corners where most cars are planted.
 
GTbyCitroenConcept, has next to no grip at all when slowing down to enter a turn.

Ferrari Enzo, undriveable, too slidey in the turns and the brakes don't feel too good either.
