    In my experiance is what you feel more comfortable with. That beeing said, i use the gtr for street, X6M, Jeep Grand Cherokee or RUR RT-35 for dirt, and i am in the process of upgrading the ruf for raid to see how it does. I am using the Focus for raid at the moment.

    street is easy the mini (dont underestimate the mini lol its quick and handles corners so easy) or skyline gtr,dirt ford focus easy,raid i use focus for flat/not so bumpy raids where speed is needed,for very bumpy raid races,dodge ram.

    Street: BZR or skyline
    Raid: I use the ruf 3400k it handles better then the rt35, it's bouncy, but for some reason I can control the bounce on it far better then the heavier trucks/suvs, keep in mind I have the raptor and hummer. It also doesn't spinout like the buggy does.
    Dirt: I'm still on the fence, nothing can beat the rt35 so far in speed and accel but the handling can be tricky, I also like the Jeep Grand Cherokee

    Skyline you can use for every Spec and loose & win its not best car

    Perf for me depends on type of race, I like the 458 or aventador for short races with lots of sharp turns. The Agera is okay, Laferrari is good, pagani huayra all work well for races with longer straight sections.

    Circuit: hands down the 458 special with speed boosts, quick and grips well around any turn, quick in general it hits 240+ often and quick. Not uncommon to get it above 250 and keep it there, you can even push it over 260 on straighter sections.

    A Guy buy an Car, some ppl in pvp look which car made 1st place, and they gonna buy that car too.
    More and more buy that Car untill an New Guy popsup winning pvp races with another car, people gonna buy the car.


    Than 1 Guy with lots of Youtube Subs thinks hmm ..The Crew..can push my channel even more..yum yum..
    So he buy/use a Car where he mean its best. He do some pvp races post some "go buy that Car" on forums,
    show some ranking screens and than we have the very best car which nobody else never should dare to deny.


    So why driving cars you personally like ?
    Cuz you can drive them, mastering it by just keep driving it.


    When u want ugly looking cars go and buy Agera, lambo, ferrari pagani Milky Way or Mickey mouse.

    People should get a ban for spamming Forums and NoobTube with Best Car here best in Spec there, Jesus..you make Science of every part of the game.

    1 little mistake with your aww so Godlike super best Car and you loose time or even the 1st place.
    So plese guys stop that discussions, me posted here my favourite Cars and thats it!

    I own all but a few cars in game, I've test driven all of them in fullstock and have most of the specs unlocked ingame.

    Some cars do in fact work better than others do or will, it is a measurable thing that the circuit 458 special is faster and grips better than any other circuit spec. It is a measurable thing for what cars are better, overall speed, turning radius and how fast you can go within said turning radius can all be measured. In general I suggest finding the fastest car with handling that suits you.

    Most people use the skyline because it's easy to handle and is well rounded, the aventador is popular because it has superb handling for most people, the exisge and huayra get suggested because the handling isn't too bad and both are top speed perf specs the exisge having the best nos and the huayra having the highest topspeed and not too bad handling. The Lafarrari is a little slower than the huayra but handles a little better.


    I posted my favorite, notice in my wording I list what works for me as the best. Those work as suggestions for the person asking.

    No matter how you slice it though there are a handful of cars in each spec that are the overall best each having different braking and handling from each other and the players can figure out which works best for them out of those but the reality is an okay driver with specific cars will beat good drivers in the lower end cars.

    ^ Guys, read this, that is the very truth! ^

    Even that cars are different in performance etc (and this is done on purpose by the Devs!) 90% of the cars in every Spec are good enough for winning. Don't just drive what all Lemmings drive only because they all think it's the best because -exaclty like Ai-Takako said, one little mistake (and that can happen, believe it or not) and the oh-so pro car was not worth it.

    And the fun fact is,all of the 5 cars always recommended are not the fastest around corners each spec (no, not even the n00bayra or the circuit 458...). Those hyped cars are only one of the easiest to drive.

    A fast car is always helpful but it's worth nothing when the driver has no control, so try these

    Street= Jeep / Z4 / Mustang (2011 or 2015) / old Camaro
    Dirt= BRZ (because better cornering than the 3400K) / X6 / Focus / Challenger
    Raid= Skyline / 370Z / ruf 3400K / Silverado

    actually the 458 special circuit has the highest grip on turns...... plus you can literally snap it around a corner and it has ridiculous acceleration, the pagani requires a little practice to get its turn radius down but heres a secret, it's accel coming out of the turn and it's top speed will crush most of the perf specs.
    The reality is there are measurable things like top speed (not the in-game stat but actual speeds), how fast you hit said speeds, under steering, over steering, braking (not the in-game stat) turn radius, how fast you can maintain the turn, does it turn like a boat? and so on.

    There are in fact a set of cars in each spec that do out perform the majority of the other cars in the hands of the vast majority of players, that would in fact make them the "best cars" for most players and there is variation in them enough that pretty much every player will find one of those cars they are good with.

    "1 little mistake with your aww so Godlike super best Car and you loose time or even the 1st place."

    probably one of the dumbest things I've read. LOL a car with greater handling, better top speed and better acceleration will actually give you a larger error buffer even more against players that are using sub-bar cars. BTW you can make mistakes in any car but they are less forgivable in sub-par cars/bikes.

    Whats really funny though is that yourself and Ai-Takako both preach against a "best" then list some of the most recommended "best" cars........

    Also:
    "one little mistake (and that can happen, believe it or not) and the oh-so pro car was not worth it."

    that doesn't make any sense, so mistakes are not as bad if you have a cheap car? Also I've had this game for 1.5 months and have almost every car, just about every spec unlocked including many extreme specs and most to 1299. It really doesn't take long at all to get money to buy every car in game.

    Idk how you get along with the C and P cars now but here is the thing, the C Viper does match the 458 corner speeds, it just has a little bit less grip at the rear so in low-speed corners the 458 is ahead. Also the Ford GT is a Handling car (which means low top speed) which you totally forgot because you seem to be biased like 98% of the others. And then it still makes a difference if someone is abusing the SC from assist or driving the car with its pure setup given by the Devs + the personal Tuning. So I can't take your statement serious.

    And then you had any car to 1299, wow. Let me guess, every car on full speed tuning right? So as many did it this way I guess you did it the same way: Got some random car, failed and thought ' meh this is crap.' Not experiencing the differences in Tuning, not considering that weight plays a role, that there is a difference between the driving modes and so on. Let me assure you that the majority of the cars each spec definitely IS competitive and you can win with them. As we all know not every car is good on any track and it depends on much more factors which are already known.

    Now the line with the little mistake of course also counts to ANY car and ANY driver. With this I agree BUT still you miseed the point. So I explain it to you= Most players rely on recommendations that always go to 5 cars and then they go for it because most of them think a fast car makes you a fast driver. Which is just wrong. And so it hurts them Lemmings the most when they don't win or finish in the first 3 places with their oh-so hyped car.

    Players with weaker / harder-to-master cars have to work harder and when they beat such cars they feel even better becasue all the effort paid off.

    And the ingame reality is, while there are some cars that are very easy to drive, most cars have their weaknesses. The Huayra for example hat a LaunchControl + good grip and traction overall but then there are cars that can do corners even faster. The Aventador for example is faster in corners and what it lacks to the Huayra in accel, that can be covered by Nos and Slipstream. Yes that won't work anytime but it is possible.

    Anyway, a fast car is good and helpful but the driver has to master it, just what Ai said.

    But what do I write endlessly, people crying about the need of the best car where there is no best car. People say they are pros, need competitive circumstances and then drive cars that almost corner like on rails, preferably driving Multiplayer in Ghost mode (Collision off) and on empty roads (traffic off) and on top of that many players in the highest Platin leagues switch to assist. Is that skill / true competition / real pro behavior ? And on that bombshell it's time to end this post. Thank you for reading and GN8.

    The main question has been answered, the topic derailed massively. Sry for that. Anyway, I have given tips for the S-D-R spec cars so try them if you want. I Never recommend garbage because I know of the cars mentioned.

    LOL most of your argument is made off of assumptions which is a failed argument from the start.....

    I have just about every car, just about every spec, and just about every level 50 plat part for said cars...... I like over all speed, it works for me and I medal well in the summit and do well in pvp. I also make custom tracks to test 0-60, 0-100, 0-200 or top speed, test corners, straighter shots, traffic and generally use various part mixes and cars to see what does what. After a fairly large degree of testing it's really not hard to figure out the game and how stuff works.

    Go read my first post and you will notice I spelled out the difference in the various perf specs and their uses.......

    There is a site which I wont link because it used 3rd party tools to parse the game and the tools are useful. What they point out is there is in fact when you calculate everything a best or top 5 in every spec (shocker your best cars you use are in therm....).

    A slow car will lose to a fast car unless the fast car driver is ridiculously bad, which if you can beat the single player story line at gold to plat puts you above most of the people that play this game so yeah it isn't very hard to figure out that the car with better overall handling, better turning, better top speed and so on will win over a crap car. Notice you don't see alpha romeos or aston martins ever....

    It's funny that you would preach different handling and tuning types then put down all speed boost, the reality is some cars do better with all speed, some players do better with all speed boosts.

    What I see though is you have your idea of how the game should be played and looked at and anyone else that disagrees is a noob or is wrong.

    Also Go read my first post I stayed on topic, then replied to whats her name with additional specs that were not originally covered. Who derailed it and sent it to insults was you and her....
