Subaru 360

Long time lurker, first time poster

Out of all the cars in the game, does anyone think this is the best one ?

It's got no power, but handles on a knife edge - it's made for some of the best races my clan has had.

Before I get flamed, I AM being serious. You don't need a powerful car to have fun and the 360 proves it ....

I agree with your post entirely and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.......

agreed, it is a thing of beauty

How many more accounts have you got to talk to yourself? Anyway we can't have a thread about every single car.

I can confirm that all 3 posters including myself are separate individuals.

I'm the best looking however......

Are you talking about me ? I think you'll find this is my only account .

And why can't we have a single car thread ?

It was a reasonable question to ask

You'll end up with over 1000 threads on different cars and they will already be a thread somewhere for you to discuss your favourite car and explain why.

Who are you, the forum police ? I know this is the most fanboiish of forums, but get off my back.

I asked a question to stimulate debate and all you're doing is having a pop

I wouldn't go as far as to say it is the best car in the game , but I have used it quite a lot, always tuned though.

As you said, that RR handling makes for a lot of fun, especially with a wheel - you have to use the pendulous weight to steer it and really hold on.

I've done a fair bit of drifting - usually where you don't need big power for sustained or high speed drifts.

There only needs to be 1 thead on the best car in the game, for there is only one.

That one is the Subaru 360.

As for favourite cars, that's opinion based.......

Exactly my point. Best car in the game is an in joke tbh, but a tuned 360 on Eiger Nordwand is a thing of genius

And an untuned one on any track with even the vaguest of gradients has been known to reduce a bunch of old blokes what should know better to tears of laughter.... Fact.

As you all seem to know each other, and are all partaking in an "in joke," perhaps you could use your own forum or an IM service to continue your chat.

Looks like officer "cant resist commenting on a legitimate thread that has every right to be here" of the forum police has arrived...

Whether we know each other or not, the fact remains that we genuinely believe the 360 is the best car in the game and the purpose of participation in this thread is to find out if anyone else agrees.

You tell us to go on our own forum or into PM, but that wouldn't get the opinion of other gamers into the debate.

Personally, I think you shoupd take your protestations about the existence of this thread to your own forum......

You'll be missed. 👎

The thread is fine. The pointless chatting is not.

Anyway, the Subaru 360 is not even the best car with 360 in its name.

 

[wazzajnr]

Just like to add as a partaker in this "In Joke" that the subaru 360 is indeed the best car in the game.
I actually thought, that as you said, the whole point of forums is to include people who's opinions you don't know into a particular debate.

I will also add that on our relatively regular weekend shenanigins, the only thing guaranteed to brighten up an otherwise sluggish event is to bring out the 360's or have a debate on whether Forza or GT5 is best.
One gets us shouting at each other, the other ends up with us crying with laughter almost as much as the scotsman!!!

Thanks for usage of real names there Paul........

Right, so you disagree with the pointless chatter so much that you thought you'd make a pointless objection to it?..... Genius......

Deleted ooopss, sorry, got carried away with the high level of intelligence being demonstrated and forgot myself for a minute!!!

 

[wazzajnr]

This is a bit like the "I don't like "ABC" or "XYZ" on television" debate

If you don't like what's on the telly, turn it off FFS

By the same token if you don't like a thread, don't read it FFS

D'urrrrrr

Be reet, cant be arsed to delete mine.

 

[toonarmani]

Based on some of the recent "new threads" titles I personally don't see what the problem is?

 

[daan]

Right, so you disagree with the pointless chatter so much that you thought you'd make a pointless objection to it?..... Genius......

I refer the "honourable" "gentleman" to his earlier post...

As for favourite cars, that's opinion based.......

In my opinion the Mazda 360 Carol is better than the Subaru 360.

Stop living up to your name please.

 

[wazzajnr]

The problem is toon that some jumped up small person with a title beleives he has the right to tell us what to do.
Politician maybe..................

 

[lloydstenton]

I didn't post on here to bait GT5 fanbois but if that "was" my purpose then it's clearly worked.

As my esteemed co posters have said above, I posted to stimulate debate. Any pointless chatter has been kicked off by the self appointed forum police. I didn't think I'd upped sticks to Communist Russia.

To have some balance to the thread, the slower cars are ALL the best cars in the game as they rely on skill (and skill alone) to get a quick lap. Who cares about 50 different variants of the same high powered sports car ....

Want to do a drag?
You in your crappy 360 and myself in a Mazda 360 Carol.
