NOMAD Diablo

[GTguy88]

IS it worth the purchase? Can I do a lot of races with it? I'm really thinking about grabbing one, mainly because it was a hidde nGT2 car and it's a Lambo.

It's really fast once you tune it up all the way. And at $750,000, its a bargain for a GT500 class car compared to the others. And it is rare, so I'd go for it.

Actually I did go for it.

It also makes for a good trade vehicle online.

 

[xNEVER-ONEx]

You can tune it to 860 HP.

I snapped it up when i saw it in the online dealership, ok perhaps it's not a world beater but it walks the JGTC seasonal challenge as stock, plus it's a Lambo but also a real curio, just an interesting car. I just bought the Lister Storm for the same reason. I guess it depends on whether you feel you are making enough dollar now, it's not too expensive though.

 

[ZZ-II]

my Opinion: Buy it...it's a great car!

 

[zk523]

I was wondering the same thing...heard it is a handful to drive.

On anything below Racing hards yeah. But that goes for any over powered rear wheeled drive car.

 

[PAC_Warrior]

It is very rare, once it's gone from the online dealership you'll regret you didnt grab it!

You can use it for one of the latest Seasonal races.

I got it to complete my lambo collection. Haven't driven it, though.

 

[Tyger]

Also I always felt kinda hard done by that it was on the GT3 disc but not accessible on the PAL version, well not without Gameshark codes or something similar which I never got around to! So is sweet to have it now.

 

[RikkiGT-R]

Hmmm.... never realised it was so rare. I bought it ages ago and have never bothered with it since. One of those "impulse buy" moments.

 

[GTguy88]

Alright, I'm going to purchase it. I have 3 million credits now, been saving up for a large purchase. This would be my most expensive purchase yet. The second most expensive was my CTR at $201k

 

[Mr Turismo]

I would like to see a stock diablo. reminds me NFS 1 Road&Track ....awesome car.

I will pick this when i go online tonight.

 

[videtonator]

Really good car, really fast, a good drive, but it's one of the worst standard models I've seen 'til now. This one should be one of the first to be upgraded to premium.

 

[Menown]

Picked it up to finish my Lambo collection (still missing the Muria) really nice drive in the seasonal event, if a little overkill. It's like a 700hp kart once it gets going.

 

[Tyger]

Would be nice if we could repaint racing cars and remove the livery, though it still wouldn't look much like a road Diablo 👎

As for the Miura, probably my favourite car of all time but umm one of the rare occasions where PD don't seem to quite get the dimensions right. It's simply too "short".

Another classic example of this that lives on in GT5 is the Elise, more so the first series. The Elise has always looked sort of balanced from the side, as is the case with a lot of MR cars, with just the right amount of car front and back, but the older Elises in GT always looked, well, sort of fat and almost wedge-shaped, with a short back and long front, and too high. The balance is just a little wrong.

OK off topic now, maybe I will raise this as another thread, it always surprised me when they get the dimensions of a car a little wrong though...

Its a nice piece of Lamborghini collection.

 

[GTMusicMan]

I got this car with a reward ticket. Drove it for the first time (stock but with racing softs) last night in the last race of seasonal event 4 and won pretty easily. It is definitely a fun one to drive!

 

[GTguy88]

Well I bought the NOMAD and did the online special event JGTC race 5 times and made my money back 3x. So Im happy haha

 

[Akmuq]

Ok I'm going to take the plunge and actually get this. It sounds wonderful. It might have to make quite a lot of money back as I want a 908 and have about 4.25million

Yeah go for it. You don't have to worry about the 908 not reappearing for a long time anyway.

 

[Type S Tony]

Found it to be a suprisingly good Nurburgring car.

 

[balang_479]

Its a pleasure to drive too.

 

[DaveS1138]

same here. Did the 4 hour endurance race with it. It's a little overpowered to make a good competative race but it's soooo much damn fun to drive around that track

 

[Lillee]

Buy it and do the seasonal event for a full refund of $1.5M credits

 

[lildomplaya]

Lol damn... All this talk about the Diablo & I have it too. Haven't test drove it since I bought it, then the PS3 crapped out on me.

Hidden GT2 car??? Please Explain! I have GT2 and never heard nor came across it even with a Gameshark...

 

[pez2k]

It was hidden in GT3, not GT2.

Also I always felt kinda hard done by that it was on the GT3 disc but not accessible on the PAL version, well not without Gameshark codes or something similar which I never got around to! So is sweet to have it now.

Unfortunately, while it was Gameshark-accessible on the NTSC-U game, in the PAL game the model and textures were removed, so it defaulted to the Suzuki Alto Works bodyshell like the other removed cars such as the 911 GT3.

Oh ok gotcha! I've never used a Gameshark - it sounds like it might be worth it though...

 

[vaneyk]

I bought it and modded it just to have it. Good power but i dont like the handling on it. Also the model is finished really poorly.

Using it for JGT feels like cheating as it so overpowered. Ill stick with the Tom's Supra.
