Cant believe no ones mentioned the RE RX7 half the price of all the rest and leaves everything for dead. Only has 305bhp handling is amazing. And the sound, you just cant beat that Mazda Rotary redline and tickover

I completly missed that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I ended up with the yellow hat nissan, might have to end up buying the RX7 too now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I used a LFA for the Fuji event. Then bought a Eneos SC. The NSXs dominate as with all AI controlled MR cars.
 
I've only used the xanavi gtr. Only bought it as I liked the look of it best but got gold on all super gt events easily.
 
I found the lexus sc430 awsomely fast, as fast if not faster in some cases than the nsx! The cars are awsomely balanced so its really up to the driver to choose the car that suits their drivign style.
 
Takata NSX is a pretty sweet ride. Sounds amazing too 👍

Its a beast. Got to have the right settings for Fuji otherwise you'll be creamed on the straight. On Suzuka and Tokyo I was a comfortable 5-6 secs a lap faster than the rest. Super speed through the corners
 
I bought the castrol supra '97 as my first super gt purchase. I'm thinking of getting the carlsonic gt-r as my next super gt purchase though.
 
I went through a similar decision last night. I do love the Yellowhat liveries but I ended up going for the Petronas Lexus SC430. I wanted something a little different and I knew the NSX's were the car to beat so I didn't want to race in one of those.

With the SC430 I ran the final championship in Pro series A-spec, in-car, no HUD (first time I tried it) and it was one awesome experience! I'm not one to usually race in-car view, but I thought I'd give it a go for something different and the experience blew me away. The SC430 is a difficult car to see the road in as you sit low and peer over the hood, running Nurburgring on Racing Hards and racing as clean as possible is nerve-racking! With the lap times being relayed onto the steering wheel and the shift lights indicating when to shift, just awesome, and something I've never experienced in a game before.
 
Personally my fav Super GT in the game is the Xanavi Nismo Z '06 out of all of them as this was the car that got me Excited about GT5 in the First place! Does everyone remember that Trailer featuring this mainly in it?!

I remember it, and for the same reason's as yours, that Calsonic GT-R excited me about GT5.

Today i'm gonna buy it! I love that car.👍
 
I had the NSX and GTR stealth cars and started looking for the rest of the NSX'. Got the NSX prototype LM Race car with the expert ticket complete and just today i bought the NSX Arta Super GT and the NSX Takata Dome GT. I plan on getting all of them when they show up.
 
I personally like the NSX doesn't takata/epson and res.... well i oly have the 300 hp lexus wich also drives very great. The GTR's are great too but with the history of the NSX I prefer them...This is a "gotta collect them all" thing with the super gt's.
 
The blue supergt car you can use online sounds pretty nice and handles pretty well too. The supras tend to understeer more. Haven't driven any nsx yet. But I think the nsx is the fastest
 
I too had a hard time choosing as I like the Super GT cars, but the first one I went for is the Xanavi Nismo GT-R (R35). Though i'm kind of regretting that decision as I prefer the Motul version instead with the blue headlights!

My personal favourite is the 1999 Pennzoil Nismo GT-R but I yet to see one in the Used Car lot yet. :(

But dammit PD, they should've included the Honda HSV's! The engine note on that car is mental, if they included it in the game it I would've got that first instead!
 
I bought the takata NSX. I love that car.

Takata NSX is probably my favorite too.

They are all wonderful cars, all of them competative, japan has an amazing race league.

Rule of thumb, NSX's tail happy, Skylines more stable but more tendancy for understeer, supra's are somewhere in between.
 
My first one was the Xanavi Nismo GTR, then for B-spec JGTC I bought the Raybrig NSX of 2006 (I think), the best looking NSX imho, and the Yellowhat Supra. The Nismo GTR is an amazing car, still have to drive my NSX and Supra myself. Also just won the Takata Dome NSX of 2003, one of my fave cars too. Like that one better than the newer model.:) And just won the 1997 Castrol Tom's Supra, but like the newer Supra's better. One of my other fave JGTC cars (already since GT3) is the Denso Sard Supra, will buy that one too when I get the chance. Eventually I want to have all the JGTC cars. Too bad the Esso Ultraflow Supra doesn't seem to be in the game, was one of my fave cars in GT4.:) But isn't the Motul Pitwork Nismo 350Z from 2006 the best JGTC car in the game? I think in GT4 that one was the best JGTC car. I reckon it's still a wonderful car in GT5.:)

About the NSX' in GT5, how do they drive? Since in GT3 and GT4 I thought they had a bit too much oversteer, that's why I always preferred the Skylines and Supra's, since they're more stable to drive.

Another JGTC car PD should include is the G-Zox Nismo 350Z from I think 2004. That one has an awesome black and orange livery.:)

Get any NSX. It's the most challenging car to drive but the most rewarding.

Great sound too :)
