Get them all. Soak them up and enjoy them, Take it for a blast at the Nurburgring (On crossply Sport Hards - None of this girlieman Race Soft.

And if you take them to LeMans remember to park up, turn off the engine for a few minutes and enjoy the night sky after Arnage - it would be most remiss not to.

Ford did win in 67 but how many Ford GT40's failed to finish? Nine... Pretty amazing that Gurney and Foyt made the finish, well worth inventing the concept of spraying champagne really.

2 out of 4 MKIVs made it and both of those that went out crashed. The only thing holding J6 from finishing higher was the fact that the rear bodywork detached from the car. :lol:
 
From a handling point of view I prefer the mark iv, because i could drive it when I was still a noob, but I couldn't drive the Ferrari to save my life. But as people have said the ferrari is probably faster, but I haven't given it enough of a chance to know for sure because it's such a chore to drive, whereas I could drive the mark iv all day even in the 24 hr Nurburgring if it was the least bit competitive, lol.
 
the ferrari p4 is a great car for the nurb 4hr endurance,all you do is lower the hp as far down as it will go (round 250ish) racing hards and it keeps you real busy for those 4 hrs
 
Simple question guys, I'm auto grinding my way to $20mil and would like an opinion on which is faster, better handling, etc?

I went for the Ferrari, but i`m well on my way to getting the Ford (lots of money to be made on online races if you reduce your pp)
 
The Ferrari has more horsepower, less weight, and in my opinion, it looks waaaaay better than the Mk. IV.
 
Well the ford is better but the Ferrari....

Well LOOK AT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is the most beutiful car in Gt5, buy it!

Ford has a good 60bhp more as standard. The Ferrari only gets more when you put a turbo on it.

The STock P4 does sound a bit naff in car though, Did the recent IndyGP TT in one, and the car was top fun to drive, but the engine note was - weak.

The Ford MkIV does have a really gutsy engine note - So tough it will put hair on your eyeballs.

This Ford should be faster as it has an engine which is almost twice the size.
 
one vote for 330 P4
 
The ferrari is really tail happy, and the brakes suck. Ford is better in all departments apart from looks and gears. On it's own the ford it quite attractive, but comparing it to the ferrari it gets overshadowed.
 
By sheer luck, i got a mark iv by winning a Lvl. 20 ticket, and so can you! by winning the super GT seasonal event.
 
Between the 2, I'll choose the Ferrari 330 P4 because it has better engine sound while the Ford, IMO, sounds like an old banger car that has not been used for a long time. In the arcade mode, I also noticed that the P4 is the most fuel efficient car in it's class that the AI uses. It's even more efficient than the Amuse S2000 GT1 Turbo but I love my hybrid-made TDI Pajero though when compared to those cars.
 
The P330 is a great car. The Ford is good car.

So...
 
MkIV has a 3 or 4 speed transmission, cant remember which. Either way, it will suffer massive bog on launch with RS tires, on a long track, like the nurb for example

That makes the 330 p4 superior in my eyes. However, I prefer the XJ13.

The MkIV has a 4 speeder. I watched a video comparing this 3 and I don't know if the uploader is true about saying the MkIV handling the best while 330 P4 oversteers.

This.

The Ford is more balanced in my experience with the two cars.
