Any of the Classics, 2D, 330, Mk. IV, and of course the R10, 908, & 787B. 👍

 

[Gazeratti]

Oreca Viper GTS-R always use to follow them when they were racing

 

[maciej908]

I'd have to say Mercedes-Benz CLR

It'd be nice to actually drive a car that gives you wings, not like the Red Bull... (it's not in the game though) DAMN

Only Kidding, I'm a huge Peugeot Fan and obviously it's going to be Peugeot 908 HDi FAP hopefully, they'll add the new Peugeot... as it's sponsored by GT5 and PlayStation...

From the days of the trinity plus one of the 60's to GroupCs of the late 80's and early 90's to the modern day LMPs and LMPGT/GT1 from 99 and up to now, they are the most coolest and yet beauitful machines ever!

I know what you mean. Eventhough Im a huge F1 fan, Im so fascinated of sports car racing (mainly prototypes).

Just look at the Audi R18. Thas how a race car should look like.

Its just the fight, team vs team, car vs car, driver vs driver, just to win this race. And the atmosphere is alot friendlier then in F1.

But its so sad that we only got 2 modern protoypes as premiums. And no group c... Sauber C9+cockpit view=epic

I'm with you all the way !

That's the spirit of the 24hr of Le Mans, it's like a good movie/book/video game, always epic to the end! I wish PD add the "lone" no2 R18 and the newer 908 HDi of this year 24hr race.

I would love to drive them, espically the Audi, no aids on and feel the rush of being a Team Audi racer in the R18, fighting the army of angry 908's pursuring you on the Muslane to the finish, no GTR2 pun nor parody included .

I truly agree, please PD create the R18, and redesign the C9, GTOne and the rest including the CLK-GTR(V12 one) and the F1 GTR McLaren as premium cars, I will be a happy boy.

I couldn't choose just one that I like the most but the GT class cars are some of my favourites; Ferrari's, Aston Martins, so on and so forth....

 

[SgtWhitten]

Just brought my second Speed 8, one shall remain stock and the other will be tampered with. Still need my C9.

 

[cdkjhi]

Damn I have to buy one of these cars. I never thought about getting one until LeMans. That Audi R18 is pure sex! I wish it was in the game DLC hopefully.

I agree about the Audi R18. Before the R18, my favourite LMP1 car was the Audi R15 but, unfortunatly, not even that car appears in GT5.

787B Stealth, Audi R8 Team Oreca, Bentley Speed 8, 905 Race Car, The Jaguar one and Pagani Zonda LM

After buying the CLK-LM from the online dealership, I was really surprised at the speed it can do. It is slower than the other LMPs due to little less power and more weight, but when driving it to the limit, it seems that there are no handicaps. Really easy to drive also compared to the Pesky Hybrid and group C racers.

There are some laps I've done on Nurburgring Nordschleife with these type of car, just to contribuite to the discussion:

05:23.311 Toyota Minolta Toyota 88C-V Race Car '89
05:24.832 Mercedes Benz Sauber Mercedes C9 Race Car '89
05:26.632 Nissan R92CP Race Car '92
05:28.950 Bentley Speed 8 Race Car '03
05:30.195 Toyota GT-ONE Race Car (TS020) '99
05:31.170 Peugeot 905 Race Car '92
05:38.064 Peugeot 908 HDi FAP - Team Peugeot Total '10

They are all stock with oil change,the used cars are with engine and chassis overhaul, all times done without assists except abs=1, racing soft tires, grip set to real.

The Minolta is the fastest, I can feel it immediatly when driving it, it has something that the other cars doesn't have, and isn't neither the most difficult to drive. I also love the Sauber, crazy acceleration, but has less grip than the Minolta. The Peugeot 908 is so stable, the easiest to drive, also the slowest (but I expected it, because it has the lowest HP amount). I was surprised by the Bentley, is easy to drive and crazy fast.
At first glance I expected the R92CP to be the fastest with its 1000 HP, but you know, power is not everything, and this is the demonstration.

I tried also the Jaguar and the Pescarolo Judd, but they are too much understeery, I don't like cars that are this fast and that has this stupid understeer. When I'm inspired, I'll eventually give them a try again.

Yes sir, you are correct about the minolta, but I think what you are trying to describe is that (theoretically), maybe the fact that the Minolta is strangely popular in the virtual world, and no one hardly knows anything about it in real life except that article on wikipeidia. Probably why it dosn't have an interior is because KAZ and their team don't know what it looks like!
