i want to know what cars do you guys have in ur garage?
my cars are as follows:
#1 Toyota Vitz RS 1.5(licks wicked cool lowered and black 6 spoke wheels) :thatsodd:
#2 F090/s :lol:
#3 Nissan Skyline R34 GTR VSPEC II :lol:
 
So, you're the "garage sale" type, huh? I don't need money so I've been keeping everything I win. Too many to list, but the highlights are here:

1) First generation monster Miata (first car)
2) Pink Vitz 1.5 (also fun)
3) Evo VI RS (favorite)
4) Tommykaira ZZII (won it and love it)
5) Camaro racecar (black/white)

Those are my modified (first 3) or race-ready (last 2) weapons. I've got a bunch of other cars that are mostly stock and have really only been used for specific race classes, or have not been driven at all.
Actually I only have two real racecars - the Camaro and a Clio racer. I've never owned or driven any of the F1 or LM style cars.
 
I'm six (real-life) days into my GT3 career, and so far I've got these six cars parked in the garage:

* PT Cruiser (First car, 304 HP, 310.3 miles)
* New Beetle 2.0 (263 HP, 122.0 miles)
* Camaro SS (377 HP, 90.9 miles)
* New Beetle RSI (Stock, 0 miles)
* Mazda RX-8 (Stock, 0 miles)
* Mazda MX-5 Miata 1st-gen (238 HP, 6.8 miles)

Not too bad for only 26 hours of racing time, I'd think. :)

No, not bad at all. How many race days? What have you run so far?
 
Well i have nearly 200. Every Race car you can think of except the Lister v12 storm. And about 20 f1's And tons of S class cars.

Well, it says 126 days, but so much of that has gone to licences and car testing that it's pretty much irrelevant now. Of course, with no used car lot the race days are completely irrelevant to me now anyways... :p

As for what I've run, let's see...

Beginner League
Sunday Cup - All Gold
Clubman Cup - All Gold
FF Challenge - All Gold
FR Challenge - All Gold
Stars & Stripes - All Gold
'80s Cup - Tokyo R246 Gold, others not run yet
Race of NA Sports - All Gold
Beetle Cup - Series Gold, All Gold except Seattle II (6th: I suck at this track)

Amateur League
FR Challenge - Trial Mtn, Laguna Seca Gold, Tokyo R246 Silver
Stars & Stripes - Super Speedway Gold
NA Sports - All Gold

And that's about it. I still need to pass S-2 and S-6 to have all the licences. It's gone pretty quickly (ha, funny!) since I got the Camaro SS from the Stars & Stripes. I'm itchin' to get started on the rally courses, so that's my next project.
 
But anyways the Escudo has the worst handling in the game, it's suitable for rally tracks, Test Course and Super Speedway, but inappropriate for other paved courses.

I heard it was 200 cars in GT3. Anyway, I've got around 100 cars, including a couple of GTOne Road Cars, a GTOne Race Car, a Nissam R390 Road Car, Mazda 787B, an Polyphony001 F1 car, a Team Oreca Viper, an Escudo, a Shelby Cobra, a Mustang, Corvette and Camaro race cars, a Vitz, a Miata, two Toyota Trueno's, the list just goes on and on .....
 
i have around 200.... a lot of hybrids etc too... My favourite is the miata with a 3rotor swap from 787B... i kept the original brakes , suspension and wheels so it's kinda hard to drive but oh well... ;)
I also have many other nice hybrids and many normal cars...
 
I've got around 93 cars and just went past 80% of the game. I always make sure my money stays between 1 and 2 million, so I'm buying new cars on a regular basis :)

I haven't played GT3 in a week or so! I started the polyphony digital cup and i'm so bored of it ... I don"t want to quit to championship 'cause I have allready put many hours of racing into it. I'm waiting for that to blow over.

Pretty good! So, you won the S&S with a PT Cruiser, huh? Cool! What was the competition? I didn't have an American car until I won the Camaro racer, so my competition was all the upper end stuff. Not that they could keep up :(

On the subject of Seattle: take your best handling car and run the Seattle Enduro. I ran Super Slicks, or Mediums, (I forget) and pitted every 8 laps on orange tires. By the end of 40 competition laps, you'll be a lot more comfortable there. I used to hate Seattle, but now I love it. It takes alot of consecutive laps to learn the rhythm.

Of course, I still can't get the GT40 around it fast enough...

A Cobra, a Viper GTS, two Vettes (Z06 and Grand Sport), and a Camaro SS. And whoever was driving that Viper needs to get their license revoked, or at least get a real attitude adjustment. There are many things you shouldn't do, and playing 140mph bumper tag with an $80,000 car is definitely on that list! :mad:

I've seriously considered that, but I don't want to enter the enduros until I have something in my garage that I know would be competitive for a long haul. I've never been content to just ride around, even if it is just a video game.

I think my problem is that I never ran Seattle II that much in GT2, so I don't have much experience to draw back on. That and 90-degree corners are my weak spot, and Seattle has 'em in the worst possible places.

Of course, I still can't get the GT40 around it fast enough...

True dat. I'm still a good 2 seconds off the bronze time.

Sir, you have offended my sensibilities. After seeing how easily that car was abused in GT2, I wouldn't touch it if they paid me the 2,000,000 Cr. My attorneys will expect a written apology in triplicate by the end of the week.

Actually, I'm gonna try to convert my Beetle RSI into a rallyer. It's fairly light, it's 4WD, and it's turbo, so I figured "Hey, why not?" :D

You know, I just won one of those last night. I already have a Beetle Cup car, and I was thinking exactly the same thing just for the heck of it!

There actually was a farily successful Group 2 new Beetle campaigned a few years ago. It was nearly bone-stock, too.
 
1.) Chevorlet Corvette C5R
2.) F687/S
3.) Nissan R390 GT1 LM Race Car
4.) Nissan Z concept
5.) Dodge Viper GTS
6.) Dodge Viper GTS-R 03' Concept
7.) Aston Martin DB7 Vantage
8.) Tommy Kaira ZZ II

A little advice... I've been finding that the semi-racing transmission turns faster laps than the full-racing transmission. Just swapping that trans in has shaved about 2 seconds off my Swiss Alps test times.

Man, this car just looks so cool flying around those corners with a huge dust trail behind it... it's gonna cost a bundle at the car wash to keep it clean though, only 10 laps and it gets awful grungy! :p
 
Hrrrrrm, thanks for the advice! But with the full-race trans, couldn't you just adjust the gearing to match the semi-race version? Admittedly it is more expensive...

I'm glad it's cool in the dirt! I can't wait to try it. I wish it was a better color than No-sale Silver, though.

Probably, but the full-race doesn't seem to give the low-gear acceleration that the semi-race does. Without it, you'll get whupped on the slow tracks like Tahiti Maze where you spend a lot of time in 2nd or 3rd gear.

The only downside is that the car tops out at 122 mph with the semi-race, which just isn't fast enough for Smokey Mountain if my race experience to date is any indicator. So maybe the full-race would work better for that one, guess we'll just have to experiment with it and see...

I actually think that silver is a fitting color for it, it emphasizes the car's "Look at me!" factor. :D

Actually, the 787B uses a 4 rotor, 2.6 liter motor (R26B).
 
How about all of them except for 1 or 2 civics I may have other looked. I have all the prize cars.
