I have tested three, but I like little cars more than big cars.
Look at small cars, like my Honda Life. Does that look like a tuner, I don't think so
.
Edit:
I have picked three more cars to test. I should the test results in a few days.

Just had the 6.2 miler Supra RZ show up today and so this reply is just to confirm really with Kent that yes there is one. This was on day 1878 so obviously (1878 - 1400 = 478) the Supra should show up on day 478 in the used late 90s of every 700 day cycle as I predicted.
Screenshot below as well, pictures a bit poor but you should be able to make it out.

I have seen alot of people say some cars take too much money to built.
Could someone give me a list of these cars as my save has alot of cash.
Also I have a new car coming too. I will post it after I post the car review's.

Yey, my Brabus is certainly expensive. Infact really expensive considering the fact it isnt really, really maxed out i.e only got a stage 2 or 1 turbo. It was made like that so then that it was more relaistic to the real cars stats. And GT's GT is even more expensive.

Speaking of Brabus, I took it out .
I played around with the settings and I found a match to my liking but the thing I didn't like is the brakes... To make it simple, they suck. Even with supersoft racing tire they slip. I ran a 1.23.530 at Fuji 90's and a trap speed of 197.5mph. The top speed is 206mph. The handling overall is great, balance is great but the brakes just kill me, they lock up too much even at a low setting, the weight has alot to do with it though. The torque pulls hard even out of the RPM range.
Overall 7/10
My settings.
Brakes - 5/4
Spring Rate - 10.0/8.0
Ride Height - 90/93
Shock (Bound) - 7/8
(Rebound) - 9/8
Camber - 2.5/1.7
Toe - 0/0

The RUF Porsche thing has been discussed before... Legally RUF is its own entity and acts as a car manufacturer.
On a less technical level (certainly not legally speaking), the subject could be debated. However, this isn't the place for that. This is the place for...
Lots of money, that's what I have.
Sold most of my 700+ cars and built up about 3 million, doing a few tuning wouldn't be much trouble. I've always liked the Mercedes SL cars but the Ford GT isn't something I drive often.
Back later... Till then, consider this...
Touge 280 or Touge Max?

I other words then it is rubbish. Well it was my first tuner. I knew the brakes where rubbish but not that rubbish. I have a few ideas of my own to sort them out now while still keeping my settings but just adding a couple of things to it. I still like the really exceesive speed but if the car cannot slow down it is practically useless. I will sort my car out out tonight

Here are the review's I said I would do.
(all time's are from Infineon Raceway Sport Car)
MINICOOPER120's Lotus Europa Special '71 -
This thing is fast, plus it handle's good for a mid engine too. Most of the time for
me MR's can be a bit of an problem, but not this one. A very nice car:tup:.
1'37.189
Leonidae's Lotus Elan MTF '62 -
This car handle's good for only having S1's on it. And I know how fast this car is because
I have driven it before. The car is smooth and easy to drive:tup:. Not bad for an older car.
1'40.001
Diablomonkey's Toyota Sprinter Trueno GT-APEX '83 -
This is one of those cars that you and take and use against cars with 3X the horsepower it has.
The handling is good, and with the NOS it can go pretty fast as well. A good car over all:tup:.
1'40.251
Tulok's Nissan 240sx (s14) '96
I'm not sure but I could not get the horsepower to the spec's. But still it's a good car.
I feel it could be better, but it's got the potential to be fast. So it's a good start:tup:.
1'39.521
With that I'm done with review's for now. I will have my car up later.

Thanks for doing that! 👍 Glad you liked it, it was fun to tune. That thing is severely unbalanced on the 'ring at high speed, so it took a lot of work to get it to stay stable. I'm glad you noticed that and I appreciate you trying my car.

You may be thinking "this car cost alot", but as you can see from the picture it's ment to be
used to race against other race cars. The springs may be a little soft, but it handle's well.
Also you will find out that because of the supercharger it make's most of it's torque low in
the rpm's. So this car loves to launch out of corners in three gear. Also shift a little early too.
And it's a deal for what it should be used for, racing against cars like the C5R and Viper Racecar.

DLRgian, ive got stages 1&2 of your vipers tested...
STAGE 1 Comments
not bad acceleration.excellent grip, holds the corners really well. very fast out of the corners. seems like the kind of car anyone could drive and be successful with. great wet weather capabilities. flies pretty good also.
very fun, pretty fast, very easy to drive. i like it.
STAGE 2 comments
Wicked quick acceleration. a little understeer but superb handiling. this monster has the sound of a tomahawk cruise missle flying through the air at mach 1. when you turn the TCS off, it does a pretty sweet burnout. i have to post a small warning to other testers of the DLR stage 2 viper
WARNING
the DLR stage 2 viper will hurl you to 60 in the blink of an eye. if you test it have cheetah like reflexes
