Top Muscle Car?

[havingfunz]

I have been driving the Vapid dominator for quite a while as I liked its speed and handling and the sound and mods of the car but which Muscle car in ONLINE (not SP so no franklin's buffalo please) is the best in terms of looks, speed and handling?? Also please provide the picture of your favourite Muscle car that you own fully modified (with the respray you think it looks best in), thanks.

[Ezza.]

Looks: Dominator

 

Performance wise: Gauntlet

[LosSantosKing]

RUINER

[PG.]

Dominator. Nuff said.

 

[daniHCF96]

Declasse Voodoo by faaar. reminds me of good old GTA San Andreas. It may not be really fast, but i'm allways doing that penitentiary race so that i'll be able to modify it.

 

[I3AZZAI2]

Franklin's Buffalo is classified as a sports car when it comes to racing...

Gauntlet = Speed + Handling + Sexy

 

 

Dominator = Speed (Highest top speed) + Sexy + has more customization options

 

 

Apparently the Ruiner is actually pretty great. I don't know how it runs personally, but it has some cool + fun body mods.

Phoenix: Loose back, a lot fun to drive...

 

Sabre Turbo: Steady driving, fast...

[ChrisV]

used to be just my phoenix but i recently added the ruiner

after finding out it can be modded to be a real nice looking ride

Dominator is the best muscle car in the game. Drifts like a boss, drives like a boss, looks like a Boss... (302's stripe )

[Dottie]

Phoenix: Loose back, a lot fun to drive...

 

Sabre Turbo: Steady driving, fast...

those look like trash

all of the muscle cars looks great except the gauntlet. that car is ugly as hell

try a vapid Hotknife, oh wait....

[FasterThanYou]

Unlike sport class, there's not just one answer.

 

Gauntlet, Ruiner and Dominator are close. Gauntlet is fastest at most tracks, but not all of them.

[Kid SixXx]

I love my Phoenix and Smokey & The Bandit movies, so here ya go.

 

 

Performance wise, it is hard to beat a modded Gauntlet in a race when a guy who knows what he's doing is behind the wheel.

Im a mustang guy but I like the handling of the Vigero . Pheonix has the worst handling imo . Havent really messed with the gauntlet.

[Pardew's Prostate]

Dominator for me, used to have a Sabre Turbo which was one of my first cars and love it but when I once did Long Haul 2 with catch up off and got left behind by 2 Dominators it was enough for me to change as It's only used for racing.

 

[GTA Master 007]

I hate the gauntlet, for me its the adder of the muscle class.

[havingfunz]

I hate the gauntlet, for me its the adder of the muscle class.

yea I hate how it looks and also the fact that it has no mods lol lame

[I3AZZAI2]

If anything the Dominator is the Adder of the muscle class.

Gauntlet = Entity

Ruiner = Turismo(?)

The Ruiner is the best in all three areas. It has a lot of customization options, yet has great performance. I've beaten Dominators and Gauntlets with it.

 

If you do decide to get this car, put the shakotan exhaust pipes on it. They look great on it!

Please learn to use the search function, these boards are nothing but the same clutter re-hashed over and over......

 

 

OT: the dominator is a bit easier to drive, but if you can master the gauntlet, you'll have the best IMO

[RDT33]

Imo, the muscle car class is one of the most wide open classes in racing. My crew has people that race Sabres, Buccaneers, Dominators, Gauntlets, Ruiners, even Vigeros. Winning in any muscle car is not uncommon.

 

But the top three are Dominator, Gauntlet, and Ruiner.

[Darth_Rob]

The Sabre Turbo. Specifically, MY Sabre Turbo.

 

 

The Sabre Turbo looks the best in my book, and is the most fun to drive around in free roam.

 

 

The Gauntlet handles the best, and is my 2nd favorite muscle car.

 

 

Added a Phoenix last night. I haven't maxed out the upgrades yet, but so far it handles pretty good.

 

 

I also have a Dominator. It's probably the fastest in the Muscle Car class.

ALL OPINIONS.

Pretty sure it's the other way around lol

[who-dat]

OPINION.

[MykelDego]

If you're going for looks? The anything from the Vigero to the Sabre Turbo and Buccaneer. I strongly suggest the Vigero, though.

 

Performance wise? The gaunlet is a beast for outrunning and winning races.

I hate the gauntlet, for me its the adder of the muscle class.

 

yea I hate how it looks and also the fact that it has no mods lol lame

The design is based on TRUE 60's-70's American muscle cars, and it's not very visually mod-able, so I don't expect anyone born after 85 to understand.

Cheers.

I was born in 81 but you are wrong. The Gauntlet has some influence of early 70's Chargers, Barracuda's, and Camaro's but is mainly based on the 2008-current Chargers.

 

To me its one of the better looking muscle cars but its a lot more modern then most of the other ones.

really? the sports class is the most varied in terms of amount of cars that are at the top of their class. elegy, jester, 9f, carbo, feltzer, coquette, comet are all race winners/competitive. muscle class is literally just between the gauntlet and the dominator, with the gauntlet just edging it.

 

you see this when joining a sports class race, all of these cars are very common, in muscle races you only see gauntlets, dominators and the occasional ruiner.

 

edit: and no doubt the massacro will join the sports class elite.

Actually the car you're looking for is the Dodge Challenger:

Here's the Charger, which is a 4-door:

 

The new(er) Challenger takes visual cues from a plethora of classic American muscle cars, and the Gauntlet is based on the Challenger, hence my correlation between classic AM muscle and the Gauntlet.

 

After reading my post which you quoted, I did come off a bit juvenile, my apologies to any offended....the trend I've noticed is that younger people want to throw as many visual mods on a car as possible, and if the car is not very visually mod-able, they hate on it....even if it's a great car.
