why do you like the sentinel XS more than the original?

[JC Hammer]

i choose performance over looks, so i prefer the XS. i had one for like 5 months, had to sell it to make space but would get it again as soon as we get to buy a second garage.

 

...the original sentiniel's are everywhere and the XS is no where to be found

i think its the other way around haha

 

 

It is, the XS spawns after most missions, the convertible can be tough to find if your not driving the XS.

i drove in the original in sp and all the spawned was the original

 

is the top speed higher on the xs or is it just the acceleration?

[Q_Man]

Because my penis fits snugly in the gas tank. Duh bro...

[Chekoloco]

XS FTW

[crashhat69]

The Sentinel XS has slightly better performance, a carbon roof, a roll cage upgrade, and an extra front bumper option. It also cannot retract its roof.

both sentinels have the same bumper options

[The Angel King]

 

Performance wise I feel it's very subtle but the nod would go to the XS.

 

I really feel like they also butchered the Sentinel going from IV to V. I loved it in IV. It's alright here but it's just not the same. Funny too that the general consensus is that it's based off of a BMW E92 M3. Why do I say it's funny? Because in comparison to say higher end sports cars yet alone the rest of the coupes, it simply falls oh so flat. An M3 is tremendous in acceleration and around a track. The XS is neither but it at least feels good to drive. I wouldn't even say it's like a 335i either. To me it seems most comparable to say a 328i (which isn't bad at all considering they're delightful) but perhaps I'm looking too heavily in the performance aspect of things and not the aesthetics. Even then it's still a stretch for me personally.

I know. It doesn't really feel like a BMW.

 

Perhaps because it is a two door Saab and Subaru. The Zion has a BMW lip trunk though lol...

Go check, the XS has three front bumpers but the normal only has two front bumpers.

i might be wrong, but im pretty sure both have the stock bumper, the stock with the intercooler, and the splitter with canards with the intercooler showing

[Guest]

i've been trying to find the XS for some time now so i can fully upgrade it and see if it's actually quicker than the original. the original sentiniel's are everywhere and the XS is no where to be found

It's the opposite, actually. I think you're mistaking the Sentinel Cabrio for the Zion,

[djdest]

The XS has more bumpers, I wish the cabriolet one had the same amount

Because convertibles are for teenage chicks, cougars, and dudes going through a midlife crisis.

Yeah right...

 

I know, technically not a convertible, but hey.

[GreyleafGamer]

I don't.

Look at the photos I shared at page 1 you will see the difference at the front bumbers, both fully modded...

[chili27]

 

I like the original better. There exists only two hard top cabrios in the whole game. Sentinel and Carbonizzare. Love both of them.

Cognoscienti Cabrio is a hardtop convertible.

 

And the Alpha

[Roooobix]

I got rid of both when the class changed to Sports. Now the XS is a Coupé again, it has its place back. The cabrio just doesn't look as nice with the top down.

[Testarossa]

It's a f*cking E92 M3, that's why.

[NudasPriest]

I have an XS, but I got mine from the Sentinel XS guy himself when he attacked me after that mission Water the Vinyard. I keep it mostly for that reason, but I do like it either way. The hardtop convertible would be nice, but with the High Life update we might be able to own both if we want to.

[elfoam]

No difference in speed between these guys. 29.331 on the convertible and 29.400 on the XS just then on my test track. Both very very slow compared to the other coupes.

[Fail_At_GTA]

I don't like it because that bastard always hits my car/runs me over in a new session.

really? because i fully upgraded the convertible and the acceleration bar wasn't full, then i fully upgraded the XS and the acceleration bar was full. so the XS is quicker

Oh c'mon we both know that doesn't count haha.

Ya it's totally not an STI Impreza front end, or Saab rear. The pink STI STD in the grill doesn't exist either.

Perhaps I need to squint more so I too can see what you see.

Perhaps I need to just shut my eyes all together

Holy crap I never noticed that, I do love both my sentinels though, don't think I'll get rid of them any time soon!

 

[The Angel King]

@Magicalgin I absolutely love the combination they did, but I just had to sell them because of the performance or lack of. With all the race mods for it you would think it would be faster.

Edited April 18, 2014 by The Angel King

[crashhat69]

i think the performance should stay the same because if it were any higher it would most likely be classed as a sports car and we have enough of those. just my opinion

That is kinda silly though. It isn't even that good in the coupe class.

[hvcciookay]

i have so many m3s in gta v haha, i have like 5, 2 in my main garage and 3 in my 2nd character, my better looking ones are in my 2nd garage

i just love BMWs, i recently bought a 318ti IRL and i love it, i want an e36 m3 next, gotta start savin haha

A neighbor has a 4 Door E36 M3 that i walk by everyday to and from work. Definitely amazing cars, but for some reason E30's and E46 appeal more. Hopefully i can close the deal on the E46 M3 Vert sometime this month. Only thing i don't like is it's price @ 11k. Kinda fishy, but i've always wanted one!
