Did you put racing tyres or something on it?

The worst handling car stock for me is the X2010/2011. It's all over the place and with an average of 7.5 on the Richter scale it's not being nice to my DFGT wheel. And I've never seen anyone being able to drive it in a straight line, every time I see one online it's a wobblefest from side to side at 400 km/h. The driving could not be worse, not even if you blacked out (like you would in reality). Now, if you limit the engine to 50% and add 200 kg ballast, it's managable, but stock it's crap.
 
Agreed, the tank handles terrible. But IMO it's the best sounding vehicle.
 
Imo it's the Homell Berlinetta...
the oversteer in that thing it horrible. even with some fine tuning it oversteers like hell....
 
Stock there are many. Most can be corrected, but there are some were nothing helps. Stratos rally Car is so awful. I even tried tuning it for rally where there is so much more drag to slow it and it is drivable but still so sketchy.

I think the ultimate worst is gonna be ruf yellowbird. I do not care what you do to it the car is gonna be insane. Full racing tires and best tune ever only makes it drivable, but still not great.

Mustang Shelby GT350R ‘65 , This car have a big problem, for sure the real drive 100% better. PD have to fix it , can't stay like this, the car is a legend and must represent well his father R.I.P Carroll Shelby.

I have to agree with praiano and say the Shelby GT350.
 
Alfa 147 GTA is quite bad even tho I love it. :D

Of course the Speed 12.
 
Stormtrooper217
The Shelby Cobra. That thing drives as if it had greased tires and was on a frozen lake.

It is slippery but if you know how to drive it,it's a lot of fun

For race cars, a big mention to the Audi R10 TDI.

This. x1000.

It's unbelievable how hard the R10 is to drive compared to the 908. It spins its wheels up to 3rd gear and has the most happy tail of all the LMP cars in GT5. I know the Diesel V12 is heavy, but it shouldn't feel like an absurd sledgehammer either.

It's, for me, the biggest bummer in GT5. It was the car I was looking forward the most before the games release and one of my favourite cars in history, but I never drive it in GT5 because they completely ruined it.
 
The trucks! All over weight and underpowered! Well except the midget, underpowered and underweight lol.

The ram and the lightning I thought were particularly bad, but realisticly they aren't designed for a track so I suppose it is a little unfair.

I would say before the british lw championship came out I would have said the elise, but after spending far to much time on it I actually have a decent handle on the elise.

I'm sure it's a fine daily drive, but to race with it in the game stock is not to my taste. Is it good in the snow?

Haven't driven it in the snow, but have sped through some back road in it, its great fun to drive. (real life)
 
Shoe67
Cobra
Tank Car
Veyron
Yellowbird

Yes, but those are all quite fun to drive too, especially the Veyron around Nurb, its a nightmare, but such a hoot.
 
MoLiEG
Veyron haters gonna hate :sly:

IMO, the Yellowbird :scared: (or maybe I just need to fine a tune that fits my driving) :ouch:
Click to expand...

That car still going to be undriveable until you get the right tune that going to make it feel like a 500-600+ hp high profile tire awd car instead of having a 900+ hp rwd car feeling

Street Racer
Oh! The stock evo with the black grille. Forgot name lol. It's stock with a 50/50 torque split I think, and it handles like s**t. But, once you change it to a 30/70 or so, its very nice.

Is you talking about the evo x

You rarely have any problems with your cars praiano

I'll vote for the Tank Car. Does anyone know why it's even in the game other than novelty? Does it have a purpose?
 
They worst probably the Sunfire, But the Veyron can turn if you know how to tune.

The Yellowbird, is completly pointless doing endurance race just the power on RS make you spin crazily :P
 
Worst car I think had the worse handling is the Amuse Street Version & Shigeno AE86. The Street Version oversteers like crazy and, even the stock '03 model is better in terms of handling. The Shigeno AE86 has bad chassis coding, even the stock AE86 has a better chassis and barely oversteers(stock AE86).
 
The Amuse Street handles suburbly for me, even right out of the box (dealer). I hardly have to adjust anything. I was actually surprise at how well I could corner with it.

The Amuse Road Car is weird, in comparison to the racecar it's horrible, but in comparison to all other cars it's a little below average. I think it's tainted by how great the race version is - you expect it to be great, take it to the track and are massively disappointed. Overall though, it's manageable.

I think he means the Standard one found in the UCD it's called Amuse S2000 Street Version '04.

You might be referring to the Amuse S2000 GT1 Turbo from the Premium dealership?
 
We mean the same one. The Street Version from the UCD. Not the badass one from the Dealerships; that one is awesome. It's not the very best handler, but holds it's own where I can take it out successfully on the track.

Oh sorry misunderstood when you said "dealer" lol.

And on topic, I guess my choice would be the Ferrari 330 P4 Race Car '67. It's handling stock is a nightmare, and then tuned its still not a "comfortable" drive. One of my choices. But there's plenty of others that I could mention if I thought more about it.

Considering it's power and weight you would think it would be difficult to handle, but it's by far the best S2000 in the game! I love it, but don't get to use it much.
 
Another vote would go to some of the pickups. They can be bricks on wheels. The Lightning has frustrating understeer going into corners and mad oversteer coming out. Especially during the Seasonal with sports tires. Still trying to find a stable tune...none are perfect. But I'm working on one. Once I figure out a personal tune, I'll throw it out for the community to try.
 
If youre talking about handling by balance,etc and not outright grip, then I have to say I was very disappointed with the Ferrari 599 and Enzo.
I think the Cobra and Yellowbird are great. Nice adjustable chassis.
