750HP Dukes?

[Dome Piece 2]

 

You can see where it says 750BHP in this picture. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that a dukes?

 

I don't recall seeing the 750BHP the thousand times I've driven that car. If so, is that part of the update?

 

And Seven Hundred and Fifiy Horse Power! It should outpull every vehicle in the game!

That has been there for ages and yes you would think it would out pull anything. But the proplem with gta is they havent got the acceleration right just all the fast cars handle better and have a better top speed. You can be doing 30mph down the road stick your foot down and there are peds passing you by lol it also F**** you up when someone drivebys you thats why you gotta know the streets of LC well to be a driver ..... theres my 2 cents lol

I guess if this page is anything to go by Click then it is indeed just the standard Dukes version from the original GTA IV.

 

I've never noticed the writing on the engine, nor does the car feel like it has 750 hp, but I guess that's the way it is then.

 

 

The Dukes has a 450ci supercharged V-8 engine producing 750bhp

BHP must = Bitch Horse Power, because it doesn't accelerate for sh*t. I still love driving it though, just wish it handled more realistically.

Sweet, I really hope they do more car models with different engine configurations (sultan/sultan rs) where you actually feel the difference in power/handling and it's not just the badge graphics that sets them apart.

 

/edit: Yeah, I want a Vigero Turbo

To be honest all driving sucks in GTAIV for me....idk if its the handling or i suck at driving x]

I'm pretty sure it's the second one.

I think that driving in GTAIV is easy as f*ck. Or I was pwned way too much while trying to play Forza, I don't know. Either way, I can do those "NFS-handbrake-turns" in IV quite easily.

At first I didnt like the handling in IV at all. Id pull up to a turn at near top speed and powerslide into a building at every intersection. I was so used to past GTA's and San Andreas basically turning on a dime. I like how realistic it is now, but yeah the supercars could have A LOT more respsonse and higher accelleration rates, all that differs pretty much is top speed and handling. But all in all, I like the new game physics, just a few things here and there they could tweak, driving actually takes skill in IV.

i dont think it would drive different cuz i remember seeing a look a like cadillac cts with a V10 engine and it was as fast as the normal one

I think the Dukes handles very realistically... most muscle cars from the late 60's to mid 70's were just raw horsepower with very poor handling & suspension, just like the Dukes… Both my XB GT’s (my red one is pictured in my signature) were built close to the end of the era, so automobile manufacturers were starting to improve upon that, but still not much better… my Mustangs were made in the 60’s, and just go all over the place compared to modern cars. One of my 67 Mustangs has N2O (nitrous oxide), and it drives just like the Dukes whenever I turn the N2O on; it’s all over the place.

I think that picture along with this one...

 

 

Confirms more modded vehicles around Liberty City.

 

Which imo are a blast to find.

 

Now if only you had a garage to store your cars in instead of two lousy parking spaces.

They should let you rent out parking spaces in one of the parking garages, so you can store cars and do something with all the money you've made in the game.
