First Car vs First Car

[BMWdrifter]

just an interesting question i had;
what car do you like more;

your first car in GT3
or
your first car in real life

 

[4zazel]

Well, since I haven't even got my license yet... it'll have to be my first car in GT3

But when I get the '90 Toyota Celica I'm saving up for...

My first car in real life was a 1980 BMW 316 (E21), I loved it, but when I look back on it now (quite a few years ago ) it was a very dynamically outdated car that always wanted to throw itself off the road. It only managed to once, and it still drove home with a dented fuel tank

And my first car, the first time I played GT3, was a Yaris RS in Gold. Which was tops. But obviously front-wheel-drive is nearly a complete waste of time, both in GT3 and reality

Hmm, they're all pretty equal in ****tyness today. But you can't match the fun you'll have with a real car.

 

[Driftster]

My first car in Gt3 is a Vitz
First car IRL, Honda Civic
I'd take the civic ANYDAY, over any of the cars I could afford right off the bat in GT3.

My first car in GT3 MX-5

My 2nd car was a MX-5 better than the Ford in every way.

Care to explain how your first car in GT3 was 57,480cr? Did getting the car involve the Game Shark as well?

Hey new guy here. My first car was an E30 as well. It was a hand-me-down '86 325e auto with 89,000 miles on it when we registered it in my name. It had great low end torque, but the 'eta' head choked it on the top end. I always wanted to drop the 'i' head on it and have me a Super ETA, but it was time for me to move onto an E36.

First car in GT3: (89?) Miata 1.6
First car IRL: 86 BMW 325e

E30s were great cars, but had some scary on-the-limit behavior... especially in the wet.

I stayed in the BMW family, though.. my current car is a '98 M3 sedan.
