Thoughts on the Citroen GT Race car

[Yev]

Ugly and underpowered (stock).
Don't like it, it reminds me of some weird fish.
Also, it has horrible cockpit view.
Handles good at low speeds so it's ok for Nurburgring.
Overall - it's not a good car, for 5700000 Cr. you'd expect something better (I know it's a prize car).
2800000 Cr. Zonda R is not only cheaper, but faster, more beautiful and has epic cockpit view + Zonda R handles better.

yup its deffinately the best looking car in GT5 by my opinion in any colour!
solid handling and rather nippy! (i would have like it if it had a bit more poweeeerrr!)
OOOOHHHH and one other thing how cool is the interior in 3D?!!!

 

[ZEROX]

mine is matte black
its awesome

Same here.

And about the car. It's one of my favourite car. Not just because it looks, but the power and handle quiet well.

It can't be compare to the super Zonda R. It's on another level.
But if it were to compare with Zonda LM. The GT have more grip than the Zonda LM but the Zonda have more power.

Possibly the best looking race car in the game, but it's a little bit slow... I expected it to be at least a 700+ hp car...

got a second GT last night from my lvl 21 ticket - wasn't what I was hoping for but oh well.

The first one I got was a decent dark green but the second one is a black/gray, almost flat (like matte) color.

However, the car doesn't show up on the item card when I go to my garage list - any reason for this? The other one shows up.

If you don't like the color, paint it

 

[aland18]

color is fine.

its not showing up on the item card in my garage list - any reason for this?

Yes, it can't be compared to the Zonda R as others have said. I had one from a 1000 ticket and it has had occasional use, it's too expensive to buy though. I prefer my Z06 RM (650bhp and 1200kg, GT1 spec).

Underpowered though? Surely it's an interpretation of the GT as a GT1 car, why would it be considerably more powerful??

 

[MNLumberjack]

I don't care much for the batmobile
Plus they left a lot out
No afterburner
No gadgets

The zonda Is one of my favorites it drives wonderfully but has enough power that it will make you pay if you mess up

You have better handling even at high speed in the zonda
Plus I feel like I'm waiting for missile lock in the batmobile

How much does this car weigh in comparison to the Zonda R?

Citroen 1200kg, Zonda 1070kg

GT by Citroen Race Car is built by LM GTS class specs and regulations.
That's why it's somewhat underpowered.
But it's price tag is huge, higher than LMP/Group C cars which makes it not a good buy.
Also, it has horribble cockpit view, zero visibility.

Good drift car

 

[ZR1fan]

I dont have one and i dont see the point in getting one, i own several SuperGT cars, a C5R, a Viper GTSR team oreca, a GT LM Spec II, and several hyper maxed RM cars, thats just off the top of my head, I had a Nomad Diablo but i gave it away. Thats just stuff that compares to it, I also have an R10 and both 908s, as well as a 787B, as well as several standard model cars such as a pair of R8s, all cars cheaper than the Citroen, all capable of blowing its doors off, easily. no point in this car for the price.

 

[FishHunters]

What do I think of it? Very stylish, not as powerful as others in it's class, could probably do with some weight reduction. I was hoping it be one I'd enjoy, but alas it stayed in the garage.

Zonda is the furthest thing from the Batmobile, unless you talking about those ****** mid-90's ones.

 

[hawkeye122]

I have 2 of them, one i traded for, and one i actually won. I cant decide if i like it or not... It seems a bit docile, and just boring. Its fast, but it doesnt feel as agile as it looks. Also a bit too understeer-ie for me.

 

[dynasty_dennis]

It's the best looking car in this game in my opinion. I've got two: one in "default" red color, the other one I painted silver chrome (I love it) <3 !

 

[boredgunner]

It's alright. Performs close to the Jaguar XJ220 LM Race Car. I'm glad it's a prize car, I'd never spend 5.6 million for it. The Mazda 787B, Peugeot 908 and Audi R10 all cost less and all perform much better.

 

[Tower Turn 13]

I just don't have a good tune as far as I know, because it has a ton of understeer, and is just overall like driving a speeding train on a racetrack. I much prefer the Ford GT lm spec ii test car which with proper tuning hugs the road for dear life. The Citroen is cool looking and unlike everyone else I like the cockpit view. I just happen to dislike driving the thing...

 

[Casper06]

Which race series do you have to win to get this car? I want it I just don't want to spend the money for one.

 

[claythrow]

as with many of the other posters, I like the car, I think it's a bit ugly and for the price should be a little more than it is. It's hard for me to lose when driving it, but the same thing applies to the x2010 and I don't like that car at all.

Dream Car Championship/b-Spec Gran Turismo 5: Prize Cars & Events Guide


+ Stealth fighter on wheels
+ great grip & handling
+ iRobot meets Aliens cockpit

- too little HP compared to other race cars
- field of view is too limited in the cockpit view

 

[NFSCARBON1]

Needs a bit more power but is otherwise a very good car. Fingers crossed Citroen decide to put it into production and enter it in competition (If PSA Peugeot Citroen can enter a Peugeot LMP car they can enter the GT by Citroen).

If I could sell it or trade it,it would be gone in a heartbeat.I guess it will just sit in my garage and collect dust.
