My vote is for the Ferrari 458. I'm not exactly good and driving some cars like the Cobra, Viper, or Corvette. The 458 just feels perfect to me. I can thrash it around and the tail never flies out like the other mentioned cars.
 
The Enzo for pure performance, but the GT-R is quite a good car.

The Enzo is a bit better than the other ferraris and other supercars (McClaren, Lambo, etc).

I don't even like the Enzo. The 458 is the Ferrari I drive, like a lot of people here, but the Enzo is simply faster.

If it's a little tough for you to handle, go for the GT-R, which may be the best bang for the buck in the game.
 
Could someone tell me what you have to do to get all the cars listed in the dealership? I have like one car in one place and 5 cars in another place and so on. Will they ever put them all in there?
 
The Enzo sucks. It understeers and isn't very stable. The McLaren F1 is the best by far. It corners considerably faster than all the other premium road cars, and it is very fast in a straight line as well.

Standard cars will never be listed in the dealerships. Only premium. Some premiums like the academy cars sill won't be there though those are prize only.
 
Ferrari f430 Scuderia..
That thing on the ring is an amazing drive. So enjoyable just cruising around for yourself.

ok so when it said Acura has 1 car and Audi has 7 cars....they is all that will be under the name of the cars you click on?
 
In my opinion I think both Audi R8's and the High End Performance G37 are great cars.
 
Nissan GT-R 07, Ferrari F430 Scuderia, Shelby Cobra are my favorite for now.

I agree that the Enzo is a bit of a pig to drive, but with the right mods and settings mine has turned out to a very sweet car to drive. And no other car in the game looks as evil in matte black :)
 
I have a Audi R8 and I love it. Handles really well and pretty pretty fast...

I have over 800 cars and just bought the Enzo. I started driving it after a session with my Speed 12 (Seasonal Supercar).

First thoughts...what a pig!

Some setup and adjustments in my driving lines; application of some different techniques...and I don't think it's so bad.

OP. My favorite Premium road car is...whatever I happen to be driving. I think there are good things about all of them. And, every new one that I drive and set up is a lot of fun.
 
Toyota Yaris.
 
I actually think the Toyota Prius is the best road car.

Once tuned, it's fast, it's economical and it has great cornering!

Win-win.

Lies, the Honda insight gets better MPG and consumes less smug.
 
But it doesn't corner as well and isn't as fast. :(

Actually, I am confident than in the right hands, the Enzo corners considerably better than the F1, though the F1 would be faster in a straight line. The Enzo isn't as stable, that's true, and the F1 is simply an amazing car in its own right.

The Enzo is the fastest production Ferrari (Fxx doesn't count IMO), though arguably slower than the Lambo Murc SV depending on the track. It's also the hardest to drive. And I guess that means it's not really the fastest. If it's too much trouble to get the potential fast times out of the Enzo, and not really too difficult to get almost as fast in a 458, then which is really the fastest? Since the driver is part of the car, the 458 is in that case. The Enzo is also very ugly in my opinion. Compared to a 458 or the F1, I'll take that tenth of a second penalty for the eye candy.

Anyway, the McLaren's advantage over the Enzo is certainly not in cornering, but in everything else.

If you feel faster in the McLaren, you probably are.

I'm confident in the opposite. I'm definitely faster in the Enzo when drag racing, that is fully tuned. But with my tuned McLaren F1 (plus aero kit) I can't come close to those cornering speeds in any other production car. I use racing softs by the way.

I do agree the McLaren has wicked cornering speed with aero and a decent setup. Fantastic car and s must buy for sure.
 
I have the best of the premium road cars, I use skid force on, traction control 1, abs 1, racing soft tires. In my opinion the Mclaren f1 is the best premium road car.
 
Lotus Elise 111R RM, hands down.
Beat every event in the Supercars Seasonal with it... Therefore it must be better than the rest :P

In all seriousness it is a great car especially for the price. RM it and fund a good tune and you won't regret it. Amazing Car all round :D

Well then your opinion is flawed since your cars drive themselves. :)
 
right now im on my 17th lap on the ring in 4hr nurbergring in my enzo (b spec)
 
are the tuned cars road legal?

Yes! But the drivers arn't , most countries you have to be able to reach the gas and brake pedals without platform shoes, and still be able to see over the dashboard to legally drive :D

Seriously what makes all these "Supercar" the best premiums in the game? Spend a lot less money on something closer to what you see on the road all the time and get into some tight racing on tracks that don't rely on top speed but an ability to actually drive in a somewhat realistic manner.

Not knocking anyone's choice of favorite car and have enjoyed an occasional highspeed blast in a "Supercar" that I'll never get to touch in real life as I don't play the lottery.
But actually prefer driving the hot hatches and Kei cars as they are more like what I've driven for years in real life. Always wanted to hotrod my Dodge neon sport now I can with an SRT4 (not a premium :() or a Volkswagen golf GTI.

Best car will always come down to an individual players personal preference and what kind of driving they enjoy doing, just like in real life where people have argued for the last 40 years or so as to which is better the Ford Mustang or Chevy Camaro (the answers Mustang by the way :sly:) or about Mercedes vs BMW, Subaru vs Mitsubishi, Toyota vs Honda etc...
