1968 Nissan Fairlady 2000. It's small, but driving it in the Classic Japanese race was a real joy. Took out some weight and added some power.
 
Dodge Charger. I haven't even used it for any events in the game, but still couldn't resist snapping one up for 70k, even if it did have 225,000 miles on the clock.
Such a beautiful car...
 
My guilty pleasure is that I will drive chromeline cars as much as I can, too save me money. Please forgive me.
 
Autobacs Arta Garaiya '03. Without a doubt. I never owned it in previous series and now i am starting to forget/ dislike how to drive other cars ha ha. A little slow on straights but my god, the cornering.
 
The Samba bus flies when tuned to the max. drop it by 75mm and it handles like a 911. Not to mention that huge sideways race exhaust.
 
For me it's the '61 Jaguar E-Type Coupe. The car is beautiful, especially in the rear. Hell, it's even my profile picture. I need to paint it though as it's some type of gold paint which I'm never a fan of. It definitely doesn't get it's only driving time in historic races that's for sure.

I've really enjoyed the older cars in the game so far, much more so than in past versions.
 
Saleen S7 - because I own a 1985 Saleen Mustang and this is the only Saleen in the game.

1971 Mach1 Mustang - I have one of those too!

Any other Mustang - I love them all, i just wish the GT games would have a 85-86 or 87-93 Mustang in them.
 
Mazda 360 Carol. I don't understand peoples' problems with the small, slow cars in this game, seriously.
 
If we are talking 'cheats', I get a lot of pleasure out of using my stealth Merc AMG- and, after that, a maxed out Murcielago- to destroy events and get them out of the way :) I just want the sandbox value of the game and the cars, but am a little guilty at how cheaply I'm pwning some of the events through absurd overkill. Did you know the AMG counts as a hot hatch for the Amateur European Hot Hatch event, if I remember correctly? Now that's guilty pleasure (of clearing it without fuss, anyway)

In the more normal sense- 53 Corvette convertible with all period engine mods, nothing else. Wallowing sliding machine of doom that howls at full revs thanks to the supercharger. It can beat nothing, but so much fun in a silly way :)
 
For some reason I really love the Lexus IS-F...stock. Makes a good noise, pushes if you come in too hot, over steers if you abuse the pedal on the right, and the gearing is really well spaced.

The car I always laugh at is that Sport Wagon R RR. There's nothing sporty about it, it's not a wagon, and it's not a race or homoligation special no matter how many Rs are in its title. It has the performance of a shopping trolley, it's just missing a wobbly wheel.
 
Diahatsu OFC-1 concept full modded. All 140 horsepower and some 500kg or something ridiculous. It's so much fun. Don't ask me why I did it. I had $500,000 after doing some special events and I felt the need to blow the bejesus out my competitors in the subcompact cup.
 
I enjoy the Tesla, just because I like the whine of the electric engine. :)
 
Triumph Spitfire. When I was like 10 or something this was my dream car. Saw it in the dealership for about 12 credits and had to have it.

With some skill, a lot of practice and a spot of luck I can get it round a lap of the Nordschleife in slightly under a calendar month but I love it! Tops out about 108 but when you have it up there it's less stable than a lambo with no front wheels at three times the speed of light.
 
Subaru Impreza 22B (AWD)

550 HP -Engine rebuilt and multiple oil changes.
1055 kg -Max weight reduction
420 ft/lb torque@5900 rpm
1.89kg/hp
 
My tuned up monaro to start with, now i have a shiny new jag xjr-9 i just cant stop driving it. I think at this rate i could do a 24 hour enduro at the ring hahah!! Also the lambo gallardo (i dont actually know its name but you get the picture.. i hope!!) Just stock with soft racing slicks is just crazy. I have not found a race that i cant win with some 'creative' driving. Well i couldnt, ive moved on from it but fun whilst it lasted.
 
Lancia Delta S4 Rally Car, I love this car, overused it in GT4 on the ring, and now that I have it in GT5, I'm overusing it even in GT5 :)
