Those Cars That Nobody Ever Cares About...

[twitcher]

Probably not "left out" but I never see the FC RX7s outside of drift rooms. Only seen it once in a race room and it did surprisingly well.

FC is very competative around 450pp. The standard with the longest name is the fastest, but all are very good.

It's pretty common to see these in Touge rooms.

The Ford RS200 is also very outlooked. Teh acr is a beast at 500pp with over 370hp and weighting under a ton it is stupidly quick and if well tuned it can easely defeat higher pp cars

 

[Cowboy]

This thread kind of died........ Oh well, I'll post something to get it back on track

Anyways, does anybody know how the Lister Storm Race Car performs? Never see it anywhere, and I've heard people say that the PP is way off on it. I remember driving it in GT5 and it was OK.

My friends and I wanted to recreate a 90' Fia GT. (restricted Gilette Vertigo, Jaguar Xj220, McLaren, Lister Storm and Panoz.

All were around the same power/weight ratio and were very close performancewise. Only the Lister was a slow duc. Always lost 4 secounds per lap. No matter who drove it. The Power wasn't the problem, as he could easily follow at the mainstraights. The problem was at the cornering. It understeers more than a 600hp FWD car. And I wasn't able to get rid of this understeering via a setting. All in all a underperforming car when it comes to corners.

My R8 Gordini has 2100 miles, I have rarely seen that car used by anyone else.

I use this car on rally tracks, it runs pretty well. It is lightly tuned.

I took a lap around Sierra in an R8. Cute but good performing car.

I was compelled to buy six Vitz's today. It just felt right.

 

[Cowboy]

Just bought the Lister Storm for a bargain price of $1,450,000. First thing I noticed when driving it was the amount of understeer, but I'm working on a tune for it.

Spoiler

You will probably see this car quite soon in another thread.....

I was joking . Yes, the 33rd forgotten car of the week will be the Lister.

Or you can prove everyone wrong and think of a different car for week 33, and have the Lister for week 34.

Unless somebody makes a really good suggestion, the Lister will stay as the 33rd week.

Back on GT5, I remember always using K-Cars (the little 660cc Japanese micro-cars). So much fun whipping a Cappuccino around Nurburgring.

 

[TexRex]

amount of understeer

Because FR race car. It has the obligatory race car -.050 front 1.00 rear toe and the RWD race car front/rear camber values of 1.50/3.50 respectively.

Cappy may as well be a rebodied Honda S800 though. Try an FF kei instead of the usual Cappy, AZ-1 or Beat--I recommend the Daihatsu Copen or Suzuki Cervo (for premiums).

The Daihatsu Storia/Sirion is also a fun kei car to drive. Comes in FF or 4WD.

Thread revival time.

I think most of you guys know that the majority of the underrated cars in GT6 are standards. Well, how about we talk about some forgotten premium cars for a little while. Here are just a few examples of them:

1. Abarth Grande Punto '09

2. BMW Z8 '01

3. Fisker Karma EcoSport '12

4. Ford Focus ST '06

5. Cizeta V16T '94

6. Spoon CRZ '09

7. Nissan Skyline Sedan 350GT Type SP '06

 

[Cowboy]

I still see the Z8 in the drift rooms once in a while.

 

[ALeftRighter]

Some i never see are the standard cars that have chrome line models. I just for once want to see a regular XJ13.

You'll see one occasionally while drifting. They are absent from any other lobbies.

Chrome Line cars are not standard cars.

 

[ALeftRighter]

I was following Cowboy's theme of premium cars.

 

[The87Dodge]

I have heard that the Cizeta V16T is a very hard car to drive, is that true?

 

[ALeftRighter]

It doesn't follow the usual mid engined rules because of the v16 being large, but with the right tune it's good.

Have a tune for it?

 

[Cowboy]

Is the Chevrolet SSR worth buying? I'd like to take one in a lobby and see if I get called a troll

 

[ALeftRighter]

I don't even trust my own tunes, but if you REALLY want, I'll give you it.

 

[The87Dodge]

Yes, I think an SSR would be worth buying, for drifting. It's rear wheel drive and heavy. I don't think you would be called a "troll" for bringing that car in a cruise lobby though. I don't think it would be good for racing, because it will still be heavy even with weight reductions, and it has strange gear ratios.
