Car Class

What class did you choose to start the career?

I pickup up the exotic, but after defeating Wolf it's getting a bit difficult to win with it :S. I might buy a new car...

re: Car Class

i picked tuner, due to the fact it seemed to have the best stats for a starting car.

re: Car Class

Hmm well Muscles are very cool, only the problem is there too low handling! excotic have the best cars, so thats the best first choice

BUT muscles are the best drifters I think!

re: Car Class

Lol I know
My favorite tuner is the Toyota Supra, with the same performance parts as the supra, the Skyline is just a little bit better than the Supra

also if i am old enough and have the money I'm gonna but that car! its my dream car

I think muscles have these positive things:
ur first boss will be angie, letting you unlock samson, which lets u earn a little bit more money.
In canyon duels, if u have way better acceleration, u can easily pull up and pass ur opponent, that way u wont have to do the whole race etc
Negative things:
Their low handling, either u will crash into a wall when ur going for a turn, or u will need Speedbreaker, which makes u drift and lose a lot of speed AND sometimes control over ur car

Tuner
They can make turns very easily cause of their great handling, BUT u will need to unlock better parts, or they will be pretty sucky
Im not sure, but I think they are also very sensible for better parts, in comparison with the other classes
Negative, u will need a lot of NOS and race smart, otherwise on the long run ur tuner won't catch up anymore

Excotic
Best car class (to start with) in my opinion, because they have average stats, with handling and top speed higher than acceleration. Excotic look like tuners, because mosst excotic have a high handling also
Another thing: their tier 3 cars are the best cars there is (with exception that of the Dodge Viper)
the only thing they lack a bit is their acceleration, bu u can use NOS to increase that

In the long run they will beat tuners, because tuners have low acceleration and top speed, but tuners have more handling

So conclusion, use muscles for canyon duels and drifting
use tuners for caynon races, and edgy-corners-racing
use excotic on tracks like highway 142 (those tracks which have very long straigt pieces of road in them) otherwise u probably wont even reach their top speed

In carreer mode, if u want to make more money and beat it quikly, pick muscle
when u have the time, tuners
when u really want to get the best joy out of it, excotic!

re: Car Class

I started with muscle and beat the game with muscle. I get called a cheater online with the Viper and Z06. They are so fast and the corvette still handles good. I mean, I really beat audi quattros, etc., with the Z06. And on a speedtrap race, NO ONE has a chance against muscle.

So, for me, it is muscle.

re: Car Class

My Z06 doesn't handle all that great compared to the other car classes, but it's the best handling muscle car, but the pure power it has makes up for handling. I don't ride the walls in it unless I HAVE to because it slides into them. It's just the pure massive acceleration out of a sharp curve that gets the other players :-)

re: Car Class

Yeah, why? I don't think it's as fast as the vette and viper, though, and it doesn't handle as good as the vette, either, in my opinion.

re: Car Class

it has better handling! and it handles pretty much better, only a little to much oversteer

but the corvette, shows too much oversteer

also, no its not that fast, but I was referring to the handling
