Which of these cars should I get? I'm going for performance AND looks (all race version)

R390 GT1
CLK GTR
Esparante GTR1
McLaren f1GTR
Toyota GT one

Any others?
 
I don't see what your asking, some of those cars don't have homologation models in GT5. The production McLaren F1 and homologation R390 GT1 are the only ones on your list.

I'm asking which race car I should I get

I mentioned "(all race cars)
 
The best one on your list is the Toyota GT-One. Just buy them all, it won't take long with seasonal payouts! 👍

If I can do seasonals... I've been destroying my McLaren in lemans and furai in bspec 4h and 1000km. I'm surprised that the furai isn't sideways and the engine still runs...
 
McLaren F1 GTR, beautiful and fast. You can give it a turbo and mess with the gear ratios. Doing that I can get to 240 miles an hour on the mulsanne straight with slipstream.
 
Looks: F1 Mclaren GTR Race Car
Performance: R390
Best of Both: Nissan GT-One.

I've still yet to own any of the above but borrowed them. All extremely rare in my UCD.
 
Best get a level 23 ticket. Dupe it so you can get 1 beast a day. There are 30 monsters to be obtained via this ticket.
 
Toyota GT-One, the best out of those - mainly because it's a LMGTP (LMP) car, not a GT1.
 
599GT

Technically it is GT as there is a road going version. (loophole in aco regulations) all of the cars in the list are cars that use this loophole. Other cars using this loophole not in GT series include dauer 962 (Porsche 962 pre1990 group c car turned road car turned race car again) and Porsche 911 gt1

No there isn't.
GT-One in GT5 is TS020 which is a LMGTP car, not GT1.
 
Are you that ****ing dumb?
TS020 is a LMGTP race car. The older model was a GT1 and had a homologated road car counterpart, not the TS020. There isn't a road version of TS020.
Get it now?

TS020 was designed in '97 and raced in 98 and 99. Did you read the link? Both '98 and '99 were the same car!
 
There are 2 types of Toyota GT-One.
GT1 model (built in '97) and LMGTP model built it '99.
TS020 is the '99 model IIRC.
The GT-One in GT5 is LMGTP car and doesn't have a homologated model since it doesn't need one.

GT-One was initially meant to be a GT1 car to combat Mercedes' CLK-GTR, Nissan's R390 and Porsche's 911 GT1 but as soon as the project was finished - GT1 regulations changed and GT-One was made to fit into LMGTP class (roofed Le Mans prototypes).

The point I'm trying to make is that GT-One shouldn't be on your list since it's not a GT1 car.
 
The Toyota GT-One TS020 is exactly the same car as it was over it's lifespan, it just competed in 2 different classes during that time....

"In accordance with the FIA rules of the day, the GT-One had also to be developed as a legal road car. In fact the differences between the race and road versions were small: in road-going mode, the rear wing was set lower and the suspension ride height was raised. A smaller fuel tank was fitted and the addition of catalytic converters ensured the vehicle complied with emissions regulations." From UltimateCarPage

"Toyota decided to follow the route of Mercedes and evolve the GT-One into a GTP class prototype. Although the CLK-GTR required extensive modifications to become the CLR, the GT-One was already close enough to a prototype that extensive redesign was not needed."Wikipedia

They're exactly the same car (TS020 was the internal designation for the GT-One, followed on from the TS010) and as such it should stay on his list...

Can you give a link to a site that mentions that?

(I need to stop arguing with you...)
