Well I won this for my lvl 21 ticket and haven't drove it quite yet. What are your guys thoughts on this car and how comparable is it to, lets say, the Zonda R or something along those lines?
 
I collected all colors of it... I love it that much. It's the most awesome looking racecar in the game. It's also a solid car to drive, nothing exceptional; just very good.
 
It's pretty good and very fun to drive, looks good with any paint. Mine's gold chrome! Sounds very good but not as quick as Zonda R, I prefer this though.
 
It's kind of a jack-of-all-trades with amazing lines and good stability. It tops out in the low 200's in super-speedway trim, with residual induced drag from the remaining downforce likely the thing holding it back.
 
Probably my favorite car in the game, or close too it. Not stupidly over-powered, good handling, pretty easy to drive, and looks cool from any angle.
 
won it (in b-spec extreme or so) and drove it several times. quite competitive in dreamcar championchip. drove the nur 3 lap event and won by 10 seconds or so. always felt the hot breath of the purple race car in my neck, (forgot the name of it, think it was the rj something something race car ^^) but since i know the track well i could win easily even though i smashed the car 2-3 times. lol

You mean the Jaguar XJR-9 '88. Yeah I had to block it on Indy and Monza using the Citroen GT Race Car, it's great fun anyway.
 
As others have said, the GT by Citroen Race Car is a good solid car but nothing special. It is ugly - I don't like complicated shapes/designs and prefer simplicity (e.g. 458 Italia, TVR Tuscan 6, etc). So considering all the other cars in the game, I think this one is OK. I plan to keep the blue/black one I have.
 
mine's sassy grass green XD but i think it fits the character of the car so well. mental car with luminous green paint XD

stick a turbo in it and buy the sports and racing tyres, then its so versatile for races online, can easily do 500 up to 650 i think

I bought the $2.6mil Zonda R before looking at the car prize chart. (FML)

But, I havent looked back. The Zonda R is cargasmic.

The GT is pretty cool looking though, I havent got around to driving it yet, but I love the way it looks.
 
Drove the road and race versions. Don't like them at all... You put the pedal to the medal and nothing.. nothing.. and then +200 mph? WtF?
 
It's fast, handles nicely, whatever, but cockpit view is awful. The window banner combined with the way back seating and an already small window, is awful. It also lacks a bit of excitement.
 
the fully worked race car version on RS tyres is seriously fast. Comic book styling aside, It gets the thumbs up from me. (you do have to play with the settings though, otherwise it's like wading through treacle.
