BMW McLaren F1 GTR Review: Verdict: Too good or not good enough?
-Overview: This car is amazing. It's easy to use, it handles great, the oversteer is manageable, the understeer is manageable, everything about it is amazing. In fact, the only real bad thing about it is it's price, the low RPM (7000) and sometimes if you brake too hard and turn the back will kick out but like I said, for a racing car, actually even for a car, it's amazingly easy to control. Want to know something amazing about this car? It has 70 more horsepower than the Audi R18 and weighs only 50 kg more. And guess what, it's 200k cheaper too! Oh, and another thing, not only can you put a turbo on it, but you can do a stage 3 engine upgrade. Only way the R18 beats this car is it can have more downforce and it weighs a bit less. Seriously, this F1 GTR is possibly one of the best buys for your money in this game. It's amazing in every single way. BUT WAIT!! You can't race this against LMP's (Le Man's Prototypes) cause it's only better than one of the worst LMP's in the game. So that means you'll race it in those GT3 races. What does this mean? You're spending 1.8 million credits on a car that's almost as good as an LMP but you'll be racing it against GT3 Z4's, GT-R's, and SLS'. It's TOO good for it's class. In fact, it's really not even in a class. It's between classes. It's too good for one and not good enough for the other. However, if you do those tune ups i'm sure it can be a great competitor for LMP races. But only against stock LMP's. Don't go into a racing lobby with this thing maxed and expect to win any races against other tuned LMP's.
-Value: For what you get, it's a great buy. For what you'll be using it against, It's either too expensive or it must be tuned depending on what you'll race it against.
-Noted features: Remember this car is a standard car so it's not going to look as great as the other premium race cars. However if you can get past that and tune it up, you'll definitely have yourself a great race car that's cheap for the cars you should race it against in the single player campaign.
