I just love having a clutch when I drift so I can kick it. I'll have to see how good it is on this car once I have a RWD car
Today is my first time playing it and I started off with a '97 Civic Type R EK hatch lol

Unless you prefer to clutch kick instead of ebrake to initiate. Then it's awful.

Holy crap, this wheel is massive fun. GT5 owners, go buy it!

Finally got the game yesterday. I don't have it on right now, but my car list currently (notables):
Civic EK - first car
2000gt- I love it, but really mad it's not a 'premium' car
GT 86 cocnept-
370z (currently 490 horse, it's pretty flippin fun)
and the subaru 360 or something, seriously... 14 horse?
some 28 hp car
haven't played it much, pretty much shut it off after that stupid bus test, one stupid cone and you restart? I love the game so far, even if I haven't gotten any fun cars or delved too much in it.

[SwissFerdi]

Yeah, the Samba bus challenge is frustrating. Just cheat on the lines and overtake in corners.

how do you chat with friends while playing this?
Exmaple: I'm in career mode, and he's in career, and how do we chat?

[dustin15brown]

ok so I played a bit more and here's the current garage that is 'worth' mentioning:
Ft-86 Concept

370z- (507 hp 405 ft/lb tq 1239kg fully loaded)

Tacoma X-Runner '04 (513hp 555 ft/lb tq) Yes, I know. I put wayyyyy too much money in to this truck. I just kept pouring money in to beat the oval track instead of buying adjustable transmission to change my ratios.

Lotus Europa Special '71- 196hp

2000GT '67- 188hp/152ft-lb/tq

I find that I don't save any money for nicer cars because I enjoy spending it on dumb stuff for cars I'm not going to use again.

That's how I was for a long while. Now I'm stuck saving up a ton of money for a classic race car. 20,000,000 cr....
Spend the 100,000 Cr. on an RE-Amemiya FD RX7 and get a stage 2 turbo and the racing titanium exhaust. You won't regret it, I promise.

well if you guys havent noticed, the reward for races is higher.
and i suggest doing the seasonal bonus races. you get ALOT of xp and money from it.

for the historic car race, use the lambo countach. for b-spec the countach or the race ford gt wont work. im trying to get to lvl 22 in bspec because you can win the toyota 7 race car and that will win no problem

i would like to buy one of those historic cars just for fun....but i cant even save 5mill for a formula gran turismo

I'm trying to but the Gillet Vertigo racecar for that Fly Like the Wind race or whatever. Do you have a car that can win that? I can let you use my Opel Astra racecar for the European Touring Car race if you haven't already done it. That thing kills.

Where you guys get the truck? None is for sale
