^^So I guess that marks that GT and Forza now have a hill climb car XD

The Suzuki Pikes Peak was in GT2.

Yeah, and it was THE godtier car. A bit tough to beat. It did feel a bit nerfed in Gran Turismo 4 though, the handling was a bit too stiff than from earlier games. I haven't driven it in Gran Turismo 5, but I'm fairly sure it hasn't changed very much.

^^I haven't driven it in GT4 but I loved it in GT3

And the Pagani Huayra is going to appear in Forza 4

[ThrasherDBS]

Yeah, it was THE best car to have in GT2 and GT3. It had great speed, acceleration, and maneuverability.

[Speed King]

^^It was very fast indeed!

I also loved the TVR Speed 12

[Redgx20]

Cars are my passion..

Merged your topic with the main thread. Please don't make duplicate threads in the future.

I hate to see this car nerfed in GT 4 and GT5.... Damn that car was best car to use mostly in rally...

[ThrasherDBS]

Well of course. That car was made to dominate the Pikes Peak Hill Climb, which it did and has done for quite a few years... Granted the car has been updated with the new iterations of the Escudo model...

I find it kinda funny that this is the base model of the car. At first glance, it's not the kind of car you'd picture having nearly 1000 horsepower and dominating one of the most grueling rally events in the world. But still, the similarities are very apparent...

[Speed King]

^^I'm glad it turned into a hill climb car XD

Suzuki are alright, I love the Escudo, Cultus, SX4, Alto and the Cappuccino

Here's the Lexus LF-LC Concept.

Jesus, it looks like they've taken a Lexus LFA and... and uh... er...

Actually, I'm not sure what the heck they did to it... It just looks... fugly...

[Speed King]

^^It looks alright, I like the back though, reminds me of the Toyota FT-86.

The front looks like a Nissan to me..

Just posting my dream car here since I love it so much:



Toyota says it is not rushing the Supra successor but instead is waiting to see how the sales and interests of its GT86/FR-S goes. If all goes well they will bring back the Supra in 2014 or 2015.

Sure bring back the Supra but why not the MR2 and the Celica?

[ThrasherDBS]

Because the Supra was Toyota's flagship sports car. The MR2 and the Celica weren't quite as popular as the Supra.

I definitely want the 86 to do good in sales and for Toyota to bring back the Supra. Loved that car, especially the Mark III and the Mark IV ones...

[Speed King]

^^The Mark IV will always be my favorite, it's such a beautiful car

[ThrasherDBS]

Indeed. Except when the tuner culture gets ahold of it. Body kits and aftermarket spoilers really ruin the car...

[Speed King]

^^I bet you don't like the AB Flug Supra right?

[LonerHero]

i love ennzoil NISMO Skyline GTR

[Redgx20]

The Skyline Is a really good car......Compared to This..



Nissan Skyline GT-R Coupe S45

[ThrasherDBS]

^^I bet you don't like the AB Flug Supra right?

Ugh, just looked it up. Poor thing looks like it got mangled...

As for the Nissan Skyline, that's a pretty awesome car. Most of us know the GT-R trim of it though. My personal favorite Skyline GT-R is the R32.


There's a real good picture of it I think...

[Redgx20]

It is a very good model. Probably That Model Or The New GT-R Model.

[Speed King]

@Thrasher: Oh come on, it isn't that bad...I actually love it! I love Supra modifications

That's a nice 1972 Skyline GT-R, A true classic beauty. The Skyline GT-R R32 is a nice car but the R33 will always be my favorite



It's beautiful
