After getting the game yesterday, I haven't driven much. So far the best car I've experienced was the Zakspeed Capri Group 5 Machine. Worst car so far has been the new race Viper (#93 or whatever number it was).
 
Almost impossible to answer. But as a Viper fan, I have to say the Viper SRT/10 ACR. Forza is infamous for its soapy physics, but this car handles like a dream and grips like Velcro to the track. Best street car, in my opinion. I remember it was this good in GT as well.

It's worth mentioning the new kid on the block: the 2017 Ford GT. It's a bit awkward at times, but that thing has no problems on putting all those horses to the ground.
 
The 2002 Camaro 35th SS turned out to be a hidden gem. I set it up to focus on handling, but even with that said, it actually has some pretty good acceleration still. It set a new personal best at LimeRock A-class in just 4 laps. I have a feeling I'm going to be using this car often.
 
It has to be the BMW 3.0 CSL by far! The noise! The speed! The grip! It's all there! It's an amazing car to drive, and I was very fearful that T10 might not have done the car justice, but they have and it's superb!

The Trans Am Ram Air is also a great choice (granted it's very much like the Camaro 35th Anniversary). Great grip, great speed, and depending on opinion, great looks. :)

As you say, the looks will divide opinion. I think its horrible looking :yuck: Goes well though 👍
 
Both of the F-Bodies stack up nicely when mildly tuned. Not terribly surprising given their dominance in autocross events in the real world. There are some good bones there, and the aftermarket is virtually limitless.
 
The Alfa and SR5 are doing it for me.
Having set the Alfa to 320hp ATCC specs(B597 if anyone wants to know), the thing flies. 2nd gear pulls out of slow corners is superb.
Same goes for the SR5. Laguna Seca, 2nd gear after the Turn1 double lefthander, sounds naughty.
 
The Dodge Viper ACR (I think its 99) Well balanced, I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would!
 
The BMW Batmobile it's an epic experience but my actual love it's my humble D400 BMW 2002 Turbo.

Have it tuned on stock rubber, just widened (it's like 265 on the back), well suited gearbox and suspension. It makes lovely noises and it dances around corners. It's going well on online racing.

Well, I just love the little thing! :D Feels so good. It's not the fastest... its the way she moves. :)
 
So far my bone stock favorite is the C5 Corvette Z06, not the fastest out there, but has a great balance, just kind of goes where it's pointed, but is also a competent hoonigan if you feel like throw a little extra torque at that corner. Just the right balance of grip and power so that you can really pin it on a medium sweeper without the rear trying to pass the front.


Does anyone else use video games to test drive cars their actually wanting to buy? Virtual comparison shopping is an old hobby of mine.

Yep. I made a thread in the GT6 forum. I was looking to replace my wife's Megane 265 Trophy+. She decided to get another classic ride to replace her 1960 XK Falcon. I wanted to get an ND MX-5 but, changed up and I'm putting my money to a classic Mini. And whaddayaknow, there's a classic Mini in F6. ;)
 
I'm quickly becoming overly attached to the Riley Daytona Prototype. Is it wrong that I've built a LeMans setup for it? It just looks so right flying down the Mulsanne Straight. :)
 
I believe that the W Motors Lykan Hypersport is the best car I experienced in the game asides from Paul Walker's R34 Skyline, the Koenigsegg One: 1, Lotus Exige S, Ford GT '17 and the Shelby GT350R. It was grippy, had good stopping power and was just perfect in terms of power and speed with the looks to match and is a car worth getting your hands on in the game. The Holden Torana A9X is also really good, pure Australian muscle with an ultra-light chassis and balanced handling.
 
Koengisegg One:1 is the one for me. And it's not even the acceleration I find so amazing. It's the grip and especially the brakes that are just great. I was surprised how late I could break compared to comparable hypercars.
 
I have a few, the one I have really been on lately is the Pagani Huayra, looks great (to me anyway) and has the stuff to go at the other "speed demons" on the Mulsanne straight (my favorite place), love the "Y" :) As my bad avatar might suggest, I am big on the prancing horse, so the Enzo, Speciale and F40 get in there, the LaFerrari ... no, wishing for the FXXK.
 
Yesterday I drove the Ford GT. Was pretty well balanced and felt I could push it round corners without spinning. The stock Supra RZ is also nice to drive and very quick. The fast and the furious supra was another animal but was pretty stable aswell with loads of grip like the other cars. Put 875 bhp in my vw rabbit cause I can hehe. The thing is stupid insane it's not even funny. Haha. Volvo 850R cause there's always a Volvo in an American movie, funny how they show up in films all the time. People must love Volvo or want to feel saaaaafe. So make your games Volvo feel loved again by taking it for a drive. :)
 
Another car which has super perfect balance is the Maseratti MC 12. It's mid engine rwd but drives with so much grip on the rear wheels it refused to front nose unless you deliberately try hard enough to unbalance and slide it into a corner. It handled like a balanced 4WD car would. It's insane how well you can push it around a track and not feel intimidated.
 
I made a C4S with a 3.0 NA conversion. The 6-speed shifts too fast but, I love the sound of the flat 6. Awd grip combined with cockpit view looking at the line of gauges, I'm in heaven.
 
For me,the 991 Turbo is the best car I've ever driven in any racing game,It's just perfect for me,I also enjoyed driving it's little brother the Cayman GTS.
 
I didn't like the 991, the Cayman GTS is sublime though.
 
I'm loving the 718 RS 60. It loves to move around so much and it's just an absolute riot to throw around.
