The two I am trying to decide over are the Viper (cost: apx. $78 000) and the Corvette (cost: apx. $52 000).

I have tried both of them (upgraded with the remaining money I had) and I have concluded that the Viper beats the Corvette in max speed and HP, and the Corvette beats the Viper in handling.



Viper or Corvette (or other)?
 
Get a Trueno!!! no only joking, why buy any car? Just win them instead :) I reckon you can get through the whole game only buyin a max. of 5 cars possibly less....
 
Gigo, when I came to New Zealand about 6 months ago, I heard Helen Clark on the radio, I hadn't paid much attention, and at the end, the interviewer said it was Helen Clark, I couldn't believe it - I thought they'd said Alan Clark, how can she be so ugly and a woman too? She looks and sounds like a bloke, the Margaret Thatcher school of electrocution - or should that be elecution? No, right the first time :D

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear... the words 'big ****ing slip' come to mind... :D
 
Corvette.

Thats wot i like to see, a nice simple question turned into an uproar about crappy truenos by AT and DP :D
 
yeah, well my dads viper will wipe the floor with your uncles corvette, and AT's Trueno

oh and btw welcome to the forums and you need to post more, it says :D
 
Mustang.

Oh, hang on what I meant to say was 31,150 on a Mustang add superhard slicks, stick it in the Superspeedway enduro win a Corvette C5R - the ultimate corvette! :D

Or use anything in your garage with superslicks, 350+bhp and decent gearing and do the enduro...

it1uk - Ha! See I can do a serious post!

And you can stick your uncle's Beemers and Corvette's, I've got a pig on a bike that'll thrash the lot of yer!!! 😈
 
The corvette is the better of the two as you can spend the rest of the money on upgrades. AT's Allegro would beat it though, he has his mother's brother's uncle's dog's monkey's badger's ferret's fox's African Twin Turbo Viper engine in it.
:burnout:
 
If you need an American car for the Stars & Stripes, then go with the Viper. I'm a huge fan of Corvettes and not really a fan of Vipers, but the Viper can do more for you than the Corvette in GT3.

If "made in the USA" isn't an issue in your decision, then I recommend looking at what car will compete in the most races for you in the future.
 
i just bought a gt3000 then put all the upgrades except for stage 4 turbo and ran the last super speedway in begginers and won like 8 times and got a stage 4 turbo and did the ruber band thing and won 2 of each car except that clio thing for superspeedway enduro.
 
Other. Buy a 3000GT VR-4 ( the second one that doesn't say turbo). It's only 43,230 cr., then spend the rest on upgrades. ;) Hope this helps. :)
 
The 3000GT is a nice car, but it's an inefficient way to drop 44K. It is a very powerful car (@1000hp) that handles pretty good for a pig. However, it can only compete in open races, the race of turbo sports, and the 4WD challenge. That's not too good of a deal, if you ask me.

The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution GSR (any version) can compete in all of those and the Evolution Meeting for around 30K. It tops out around 575hp if I remember right.

The Skyline GT-R V-Spec II (R32) can compete in all of those races, plus the 80's Sports Car Cup and the Red Emblem races for just over 50K. It tops out at over 800hp if I remember right.

The RUF 3400S can compete in the Spider & Roadster, the MR challenge, the Race of Turbo Sports, the Boxer Spirit, and all open races. It's a great car all around but I've never maxxed it out. It is also costly, but more than worth the investment.

from what you know, do you think those cars have easy handling like the f1s?
 
IMHO the Nissan R390 handles slightly better than the Toyota GT One.You have to be really careful on the accelerator coming out of corners,especially with ice cold hard slicks on. :eek:
They don't seem to handle aswell as my polyphony F1 car,but i think that might have something to do with the fact you can only have medium tyres on the F1 car.Has any1 run a race with medium tyres on the GT 1 cars yet?
 


The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution GSR (any version) can compete in all of those and the Evolution Meeting for around 30K. It tops out around 575hp if I remember right.
Oh yeah, forgot about the Lancer. Except I always buy the RS version For just 25k. A great second car if you ask me. ;)
 
I think you should save enough for a RUF RGT. They'll serve you well because they can go over 1000hp thanx to Stage 4 Turbo. A stock RGT could win the Amateur Boxer Spirit Races easily.
 
but my friends think that the RGT's handling sucks ballz no matter how u tune it.....

anyways, money is no problem to me. i WON alot ALOT and ALOT of races...
