Have I mentioned the Nissan is the biggest pile of trash I've ever driven?

Don't be too harsh on it, I been privately testing (apologies to Furi, when you are having the tests, I'm at work! :()so, I got my fast so far at Fuji GT 1:49.840. I'm still working on project "Slowline", and its BIGGEST issue isn't the five speed transmission nor the power itself... it is weight. Its a big son of a pup, man. Take a look at the rest of the cars weight and compare it to them. For example, the Nissan weighs in at 1305 kg to the CR-Z's 1115 kg is 190 kilos (that's almost three of me!). Its a disadvantage that I accept with the car because when setup right, it drives so sweetly, and a good handling/balanced car is something I like. Brakes are a little spongy too, but adjustments to brake bias and the LSD will help it I think. Anyway, that's my two cents and then some.

You must me using a controller/DS3 then. With a wheel it's definitely the steering which is the main problem. It has an enormous dead zone far bigger than any other car I have ever driven in the game. It's borderline undriveable!

According to Wikipedia, "Four-wheel active steering is available on SP models of 350GT as an option." So I'm guessing that's what it's trying to simulate .... and poorly at that!

You probably won't notice it with a controller, but trust me; no sane person would regularly drive this car if using a wheel 👍

I may not be able to make it on Thursday. WiFi is out all over the state and I'm not sure when it will be back on.

According to Google; A Sciricco is a hot mediterranean wind :)

Uhm, that is actually the Scirocco, you're talking about. The first Scirocco came out in a phase where Volkswagen got into the habit of calling all their cars after winds, the Passat and Bora being other examples of that.

Actually there was a model they launched after the old Jetta and before the Bora which was called Vento, which literally means Wind in Portuguese...
 
After playing Midnight Club 3, I thought Jetta was just the US name for the Bora? :confused:
 
I'll stick with the CR-Z please Furi. Final choice. It's good to have a mix of cars and there are already a few BMWs so ... yeah. It'd be a shame if no-one picked it.

Not quite. Originally, the Golf with the limousine-body was called Jetta. Then it became the Vento. And then the Bora or Vento or Jetta wherever it was sold. And in the meantime we're back to Jetta.
 
Yup, VW tend to cycle the names of the cars. The Lupo became the Fox, which then became the Up!(stupid name...)

There is also the Scirocco and the Corrado from years ago.
