Mate, when I first won it, it only had 400+ HP(?). On the Med. tires the only problem it had was it was a little hard to straighten out off of some turns. That and a complete lack of low-end-torque, but a strong mid and top-end. I thought the car was awesome. Then, I did the NA boost to 500+ & tweaked it myself & the turning got nothing but worse. It would push some, then turn itself into a donut. The more I eliminated the push.... I soon sold it. Then I win another one w/700+ HP. I'd since learned about GT Vault & Nova SS so I tried it again......You know the rest: From :D to :irked: to :banghead:
 
Some cars are just not made to have beastly horsepower numbers.

It is physically possible to fit a 5.0l Mustang engine into a Miata. I've seen it done. It's fun to drive if you like to point and squirt, but it murders the chassis balance and nimbleness of the car.
 
"Nimbleness"? Shouldn't that be "nimbility"?:lol:

i cant belive u people are judging this car according to a game!!! in real life i reckon this car handles better than it does in gt3...in fact i reckon most of the cars in gt3 handle better in real life!
lets list some mistakes:

zonda sounds nothing like in gt3
esperante prolly drives better
most cars prolly drive better
and so on...

remember this is just a game!!
its not nescessarily 100% realistic

Wanna talk about an ugly sound? What about "The Wail of the Tourtred Cow" that comes from a Skyline?
