Fun drive

[GtSprinter]

Is there a car that handles Like a Dream but has a very low amount og horsepower?
I Think it would be a lot of fun to drive such a car!

 

[GODfreyGT5]

The MX-5 TC is my favourite example, but there are many.

Honda NSX Type-R '02
Honda Integra Type-R (DC5)
Alfa TZ2 Carrozzata da Zagato
BMW Z4 M Coupè
Lotus Esprit V8 '02
Lotus Evora '09
TVR Tuscan Speed 6
Mazda RX-7 Spirit Type-R (FD Gen) '02

These are my favourites premium cars with not so much horsepower

I agree with daan on all the GT300 cars.. 3-400 hp combined with ridiculous downforce = super fun, easy, and amazing handling cars

 

[Woodski_427]

Also agree with the GT300. Really like the Asparadrink RX7s.

I really enjoy tuned up Kei cars. Honda Z and the Midget are great fun - so light you can really throw them about. Also the Autozam AZ1 is great: you can put a decent body kit on it too.

hadn't driven it before last night in cockpit view...

The caterham !!

on comfort hard was a lot of fun, seeing the front wheel bouncing on the rumble strip as you hit the apex, also it sends you a text message before you lose control.... which is nice.

 

[Vegard]

Elise '96 obviously.

 

[f1webberfan]

Daihatsu OFC-1 Concept '07. 💡
It handles fantastic and it's like 65-70hp when you buy it.

 

[Apmaddock]

I like the Ginetta G4. It's loose, but that just adds to the charm, in my opinion.

Fun drive, not deadly.. Haha just joking with ya.. But besides that, like the profile name! Had it once I miss it.. Haha..

 

[gorsad]

GT300s and the Lotus Elise '96' with Racing Modifications.

 

[Delta795]

Like Daan mentioned, almost all GT-300 cars, but additionally I would add
FTO Super Touring car and Suzuki GSX-R

[Apmaddock]

Apparently a lot of people have a skewed sense of what "a very low amount of horsepower" is.

 

[Bottoz]

Is 173hp and 129tq too much?

 

[Apmaddock]

I wasn't trying to single you out. I was speaking more of the GT300 fans.

 

[Davidies]

Bugatti Veyron.

I know you were joking, BUT if OP want a car that handles like a dream, and has a low amount of HP, then this is the direct OPPOSITE of that!

 

[Tvensky]

Jaguar E-type

Caterham is awful, i had to fill that car with understeer to make it enjoyable. and it still wasnt

Also the gearing sucks. its nearly as bad as a 2j

It's all relative. Compared to the 1000bhp LMP cars, the GT300s do have a low amount of horsepower.

 

[spikeyhairdude]

For me.
It would be
Honda integra type r dc5
Nissan gtr stock

Theres more that i cant remeber at the moment

 

[Bottoz]

I agree. IMO, Low HP is under 200.

 

[Delta795]

How can a car that should not be more than 300hp considered anything but low power? My everyday car would not be able to compete due to this restriction.

 

[Bottoz]

LOL... I guess you have a high hp car. Be happy!

 

[Kamdoon]

suzuki cappacino rm

+1

 

[Azure Flare]

Toyota GT 86 is a good drive.

 

[Morgoth_666]

Agreed. The upper limit doesn't mean too much -- compared to a 1400 horsepower monster, a 550hp Ferrari is low-powered.
