There's always a moment when you see that one car in your mirror that makes you feel a little threatened.

So according to the community here in terms of sheer road presence which car has that sends something down your spine? I haven't entered a race for some time so I don't really have an answer but I saw an Impreza WRX STi Spec-C Type-RA drive by whilst in my car today and I really felt it's road presence and that is what led me to make this thread.

I have to say I've never felt threatened in Gran Turismo.
 
I'd have to say the Jensen Interceptor III...me and a friend both use stock black Interceptors, and seeing one appear in your mirror and thunder past is just amazing, especially when you happen to be cruising in a Mitsubishi Cyborg :D
 
GT5 doesn't work that way in my experience. Once you're in front it's a done deal. In real life on the other hand - Nissan Micras bother me - but I drive a VW Diesel.
 
I'm going with the Enzo or the Camaro SS '10.

Sorry mate, I was being facetious. I drive a GT TDi 130 re-mapped to 177bhp and nearly 300lb/ft!
 
McLaren f1 on a long straight, it just keeps coming and it keeps creeping up on you, looking as if it's gonna kill you!
 
Anything, that is moving 50+ mph faster than me, unless i can out accelerate it:D
 
Anything with a loud growling engine thats comes up behind you and you can hear it over your own car!!!
 
It's just pixels on a screen it doesn't work that way:sly:.
 
BMW M3s especially in a 550pp lobby theres lots of them
 
I'll go with the Shelby Cobra. (I think).
The V8 AC.
 
A tank car threatens me, until I get to a corner.
 
Plymouth Hemi Cuda in Black/Slate Grey. It looks scary even if I'm the one driving it :D
 
The Enzo Ferrari, that's because I'm in a Ferrari 599 with a suspension setup and nothing else. :p
 
Definetly the GT by Citroen Road Car/Concept

really? you're lucky then. On the nurburgring I nearly always screw up that one corner near the start after the jump, the one where if you break going round it, you will crash and you will die. or get only one wheel on the grass and you'll spin uncontrollably... anyway...don't really know what my point is anymore, soooo... good-day...

Ah!! hehehe, I was wondering if it was VW tractor or something! (sorry Micra owners....I HATE that car!)
 
In real life it would be Nissan GTR. "Fierce" looking car.
 
Usually the GTR or some idiot in a oddly colored Zonda riding up my a$$.
 
The Lambo's you can here them rawr from behind then exhaust crackle when they pass simply amazing.
