Got a 60's Beetle. For Willow Springs... Juiced it up but not enough to get the win in the S race (8 lap event)

But with no front bumper and painted in the Japanese Chrome paint it has a very "smiley" face at the front...

Also bought my first bottle of N2O --- only to remember I had remapped the Nitro button to "Beep horn" -

Skills of the Inoue - Badge endorsement!
 
......have you played "Last of Us" ? It is possibly one of the best games that I have played (outside of the GT franchise).......it is my change of pace from GT6, so that I don't get burned out.....

Have you played it? How do you compare that game with other similar titles? What is the game even about? I've also heard wonderful things about Last of Us, but for some reason I just don't trust them. Really popular and highly advertised games, although not always mediocre, usually don't end up being more than average.

The game is awesome and lives up to all the hype....I am currently on my second playthrough on my secondary account and it's still as great as the first time.....
 
Honda NSX Type 2 02, painted with a polarized rusty color and orange polarized wheels....hooopdee
 
Collecting the other versions of the cars which are from the 15th Anniversary Edition whose base came from.
I just collected the Renault-Sport Megane Trophy and MT Base Model as starters since I got the Megane Trophy 15th Anniversary Edition of it as part of the pre-order.
 
Today I bought a premium RX-8 for the Velocity Red Mica paint chip (to complete my quest of finding a decent, bright red mica paint chip). The car won Trial Mountain FR Challenge. :)
 
Spent credits tuning,repainting, and giving custom wheels to my Lamborghinis.......Since I really like Nero Nemesis as a color most were treated to it....at least until I no longer like the color......
 
Bought an ASL Garaiya.

A quirky looking car like The child of a Lamborghini Diablo and an Alfa 147.
"Its got my doors." Mr Diablo
"She's got my rear lamps. And it is a girl, stop calling her an it." Mz Un centinaio e quarantasette

However it was raised on a diet of Norfolk Turnips - so handles like a well engineered mid-engined car - a Lotus!

Not quite enough engine to win at Willow Springs (197bhp vs a Veyrons 987bhp...)

But more than enough to demolish the same band of supercars at Evil Bond villain secret base Ascari Circuit resort. - 10 laps in under 24 minutes. 466,000 kazulas...

Car lacks engine power and out and out speed. But it handles excellently. It rotates well but doesn't over rotate in corners. You can chuck a four wheel drift and the car will slide with grace through the apex than get back to business.

Previously I bought a 'Stang Boss 302 in "Buy me, Buy me now green!"

Cracking name, but not a paint chip. (You can also get School Bus Yellow. Those jokers in Detroit!)
You can respray it but you get a contrast stripe. however you paint it... Car is okay but kills the tyres.
 
Jaguar XJR-9 '88
Volkswagen Scirocco GT24 (VW Motorsport) '08
Amuse S2000 GT1 Turbo
Gran Turismo 350Z RS
Nissan Fairlady Z 280Z-L 2seater (S130) '78

I only bought the Fairlady for the Gold Metallic paint chip. And now I'm up to 243 cars total (cue Pokemon theme).

Hands down one of the best video games I have ever played, its a zombie horror survival game, usually I play racing and sports games. I stepped out of my normal realm for this based on most of the reviews and my only regret was waiting so long to buy it. The graphics are beautiful, the water and snow effects are breathtaking. It isnt a run and gun game, ammo and all supplies in general are very scarce, you have to find items to craft medkits, molotovs, smokebombs etc. Its made by the same people that did Uncharted, but this game blows all of them out of the water.

I was sold on "The Last of Us" before it came out, so I pre-ordered it , and dove into it on day one and have played it numerous times.....now I wish I had bought the Collector's addition.......looking forward to the new single player DLC that launches next month.....

I was hooked in the first level when I took a wrong turn running in the mob and got mauled by a zombie. it was tough to put the controller down and not play in one sitting, everything felt like a cliffhanger. I don't know how Naughty Dog can top this on ps4, but I'm sure looking forward to that and GT7.
 
Ferrari Dino - Not as bad as I expected.
Jaguar E Type - Too much Understeer.
Painted my Cizeta...

First You get the Money...
Then You get the Power...
When You get the Power, then you get the melted rear tyres.
 
I bought a Jaguar for the Spectrum Blue Metallic paint.......looks almost like a chrome color. Now back to "The Last of Us".....

'00 Accord Type r to make a BTCC replica, '02 Euro R to make a WTCC replica.
Some Infiniti and Lexus sedans and a Micra, to make a few VIP style cars (pics to come).
Another Boss 302
Infiniti, Mazda CX-7 and Evoq cross overs.
Silver BMW 2002 turbo
 
After working my way through buying the recommended cars to get premiums, I got most of the Alfa's and all the RUF's. Grinding away, building the collection. Beemers next.

One of these, I am really enjoying learning how to keep that skinny front end from snapping tight by rolling on the throttle through the turns, she's a fun little car when you get used to her 👍
 
I recently bought all of the Super GT500/300 cars at once. I took a calculator out and added up how much credits I would need to make a clean sweep and buy them all out. Then I grinded the Redbull Junior Championship until I had enough credits to do so. Love those race cars to death! :D
