Zonda R. The FXX is just a handful, plus you have to buy the fully-adjustable suspension unit which is normally available in racing cars.

The Zonda R still requires concentration, but it's more drivable than in GT5. Speed-wise, I don't see differences from those 2 cars.
 
Fxx is wicket fast but a bit of a handful. If zona drives better than in gt5 then go for it. I'm saving my million too.
 
I can't drive the Zonda r because I tried it on Assetto Corsa.

Edit: Get the Zonda r but if/when you have enough credits get both.

Neither really. If you want to compete with LM cars then buy an LM car, not a fast supercar.

They are Track cars, not super cars. They are both illegal to drive on public roads. I think they both can compete against LM cars as well, it takes a little finesse.

Neither are supercars as they are not road-legal. Both are based on Supercars though (Well the FXX is more loosely based but you can still see it resembles the Enzo). What purpose they serve, I do not know, but they are cool and fast so what the hell...

Which is why I said fast supercar. I am aware they are not road legal.

They technically are faster versions of already fast supercars which is why I said fast supercars for lack of a better term. Track day cars are usually little Atoms and X-Bows. These are a little beyond that.. 'Toys' would be a good name. Expensive toys.

Regardless, while they are cool and fast, they will have trouble keeping up with an LMP. They weigh much more and have less downforce.

If you want to use racing softs, cut corners, use SRF, put the full size turbo on it, and hope that the rubber banding AI will help you out, then go for it. But personally I'd rather compete against LMP cars in an actual LMP car.
 
If driven stock without driving aids, nothing beats the reward of learning to drive the FXX.

Yes its a handful at first, yes its hard to drive at first, but once you turn that first clean lap on the ring you'll be glad you bought it.
 
I haven't tried the Zonda R. I know it was a bit dangerous in GT5, but once you got to know the car it was very rewarding; just like the McLaren F1.

I don't know why they say the FXX is difficult to drive. I use it with Sport Soft tires and it's just fine. Honestly a bit too much. I don't know if there is an opposite word for "nerfed," but I got a feeling that the FXX is just that. It's WAY too good. It doesn't make sense, especially how it accelerates and gains speed without loosing a bit of traction.
 
I've won quite a few races with the FXX but I don't think I've won even one with the ZondaR. I think the Zonda is far more difficult to drive[even with max wing] and far less forgiving than it was in GT5. It was my favourite car in GT5 but I've barely used it in GT6 because it's such a handful.

The FXX slides a bit but it's quite predictable and it lays down its power less violently.

Give sport hards a shot and let me know what you think.

I've personally never upgraded the stock sh tires, and in my experience grip on accel requires precise feathering of the throttle less you want to see how accurately the guardrails are textured.

There is much more wheelspin and understeer with SH, but it's not uncontrollable. I feel that the FXX is one of those special handling cars that require SS, so that's what I'll keep using on it... If I ever feel the need to use that car again, that is. The FXX is one of three of my only cars with that compound. My other two cars that have that tire feel much less grippier even with less horsepower.

Yeah you're spot on about the car not being uncontrollable, it just took me a little bit to get used to.

The masochist inside would never allow me to upgrade tires.

I feel (hope) that the game replicates as well as it can the feeling of driving these cars in real life and who am I to say ferrari got it wrong. Plus I enjoy the challenge from figuring out each cars individual nuances.

Haven't tamed the zonda yet, but you all just game me something to do tonight.
 
IMO.... If you want a car that you're going to stick with and love it for a while, aside from the obvious sounds, then the FXX is it for you. I hated the car at first, however, taking it to Monza and watching the replays of it bounce the curbs. It's amazingly fun, and if you want to drag with it, well slap on a turbo..
 
I quite liked the FXX, surprisingly so, but the sound is CRAP. (Big surprise, lol.) The Panini I've never tried (yet) as I'm not a fan.

Even with Comfort Soft, the amount of grip available on the FXX is immense.

Of the bread, specifically, or just sandwiches in general?

Then you sir, are better at this than I.

The fxx on sh/no aids has phenominal mid corner grip, especially at speed.

But unless my DS3 is broken, 1-3 don't like to be abused on a strait let alone a corner.

It always seams to lose that immense grip
