Lotus Esprit V8GT in Ruby Metallic

Nice oversteer on demand and the car is balanced on the edge so you have to work the wheel a bit in sweepers - nice.

Repainted in gunmetal from one of the seasonal events.

The Lotus Esprit is one of those cars I can't get enough of. I don't know what it is but since GT5 that car gives you an outstanding sense of speed, even for an average 300+HP sportscar. And that flatplane Turbo V8!!
 
My weapon for the Gran Turismo World Championship has been bought- the Bentley Speed 8. I haven't tested it out or anything, but I do still remember waiting in the development of Gran Turismo 4 about wanting to see the Bentley Speed 8 make the pack. I even still remember when I mentioned here on GTPlanet about Bentley winning Le Mans five times in the first ten years of Le Mans. That text shown up in GT4. It was also indicative that PD DOES listen to its fans and that it CAN get big-name companies in the series. This was in a time when people complained of not having companies like Ferrari or Lamborghini (among others) represented in a lineup of cars in a Gran Turismo, as if they're the only world-class manufacturers and as if they are the only supercar makers in the world.

Anyhow, the brutally fast and sexy Bentley Speed 8 is now part of my collection at long last.
 
I brought the 2012 Raybrig HSV-010 GT500 racer.

Of the three cars excluding the base model, it was the one I think looks the best with the blacked out rear end.

And then theres the sound of course......;)

Surprised the ARTA Autobacs car isnt in the game, thats a great livery too :)
 
Bought the 90's Mini just for funsies. It's got a lot of pep with the right tune. Probably one of my favorite cars to drive at the moment.
 
bought two premium "fairlady twin turbo's" , tuned them both to 500PP , one with flat floor , the second one without one
went to "International A" 550PP touring car , mount paranorma 5laps race.
using the sport softs , first car including flatfloor in its tune came 4th , 23seconds behind
the second one excluding the flatfloor [still 500pp ] i won the race
so ... FLAT FLOOR IS BS
 
I bought more peerless gear for my Skyrim character and began crafting Dragon bone weaponry...haven't logged into GT6 since Friday as there is nothing new that warrants my interest......the new seasonals are again just time trials with cars I have no interest in owning.....currently spending my GT6 time here.
 
RUF 3400S, painted in a pearl yellow obtained from the Vauxhall Tigra.

The Jag XKR-S in French Racing Blue. Put all parts and my setup on. Drives great. And the SLS AMG. Also all parts and setup. What I also bought today....... a Hamburger, a Chickenburger TS and some Mountain Dew :D
 
Well, since I was going to race the Nürburg 24' for the .... th time (each time earning some 600.000 cr) and - once more - at nearly 50.000.000 credits, I first went shopping and bought all available helmets and racing gear, including the Ayrton Senna equipment.
Also added the Alfa Romeo race car #130 from the sixties to my garage.
Now, I'm ready to do some more races without losing credits ... :P
 
Bmw 135i(second one),toyota MR2,and a 69 camaro.All to be added to my drift lineup!!
 
I bought a junior kart, found out that you can add ballast to it so I loaded it with 200kg in the back just to see what the effect would be.

It didn't turn out very well, the kart now sounds like a war zone. The effect (and sound) can best be described as if a machine gun has been mounted to it. That weight might have been more than the engine could handle :/
 
I brought Pescarolo C60 Hybride 05

Oh and I also traded in my normal gt6 edition for a 15th anniversary edition at my local EB Games. :)

One last thing-I also brought some Mountain Dew on the way home.

If you done the RB X standard championship you wold have earned 50 mil long time ago.
Cuz winning all 5 races gives you 1.2mil and as series champion you get another 1 mil. with 200% login bonus.
The races last 3 or 4 min. So in 20 min you earn 2.2mil....

Bought the BMW M4 with special black paint.. (the one wich dissapears after hotfix update)

Nice. I Skyrim between updates too. My archer got a new crossbow today which I quickly fire enchanted.

On topic, a trio of limited edition M 4's. I figure I'll clone them once the community features go live and distribute to my gfaqs and gtp buds.

I did, I'm on something like 250 mil. right now.

Only did the RB thing a few times because I got bored with that.
I almost exclusively race the Nürburg 24' now. I started to do that with all available cars in my garage, keeping track of the fastest laps for each car...
As for the credits: the Nürburg 24 gives you only some 600.000 cr. (at 200% login bonus), but lapping the ring never bores me (now some 16.000 km in GT6).

Oh, I also have the -now exlusive- black beamer :D
 
Got the Renault Clio '11. It has to be the most detailed car in the game in terms of functions and instruments. On the dashboard it got:
  • Odometer
  • Trip odometer
  • High beam / low beam indicator
  • Fog light indicator (comes on in rain)
  • Clock
  • Termometer
  • Fuel meter (haven't checked if it's functional though, but if the car comes with a working termometer I'll assume the fuel meter is working too)
  • Speedometer and tachometer (as most premium equivalent cars...)
Also, it's the only car I know of where the rear window wiper works.
 
I brought the VW Sambabus today in the black over red livery. I'm not going to race it, I'm just going to have it in my garage to look at and enjoy it's beautiful curves.
 
Jaguar XJ220

It drives exactly like the Honda NSX-R, but with more power and a bit more turning freedom. I find it hard to believe I ignored this car for so long.
 
BENTLEY SPEED 8 '03
I bought the Bentley Speed 8 '03. This was a car I loved in GT5, and always wanted as premium, but I only got round to purchasing it last night. If you want an easy win at 24m of Le Mans this is the ticket.
 
A lot of FR cars between 340-380pp, sold craps out (read=X cars) to get more money, never used those, and never will be.
