A Suitable Replacement - Benefactor Shafter

[Irish O'African]

I am looking for a suitable replacement for my Benefactor Shafter. The skinny rear tires compared to the wide wheel arches bother me, plus I think it is a time for a change. What would you suggest as a suitable replacement? I am looking at the Bravado Buffalo and Bravado Buffalo S, Cheval Fugitive, Lampadati Felon, Obey Tailgater, First Generation Ubermacht Oracle, Second Generation Ubermacht Oracle, and Exemplar. I am also seeking something unique, different, outside of the crowd, and outside of the box. Also, please give me a reason to choose said vehicle or vehicles. I already have a Karin Sultan and Zirconium Stratum, so no need to suggest those.

Definately the Buffalo S. It's fast, 4 seated, very customizable and looks terrific.

 

Can't go wrong with Chargers.

I would never want to get rid of either of my Schafters, but as we're all different, and I'm a helpful kind of guy, I would suggest the Felon. I have a Bufalo S and they are great, don't get me wrong, but I never use it because it's kind of inbetween everything - a bit muscle car, a bit sedan (but too obnoxious), a bit sports (but not quite fast enough). Felon is a fast, ellegant, 4 door sedan.

 

But I'd still stick with the schafter.

Yeah, I can't get past the Schafter's stance, either. Makes the car look anemic. From your list:

 

Bravdo Buffalo: There's no reason whatsoever to get this car when the Buffalo S is available. No reason at all.

Bravado Buffalo S: Outstanding performance, customization, sound, durability, but polarizing styling.

Cheval Fugitive: This car is MEH on wheels.

Lampadati Felon: Great car and one of the easiest to drive in the game. It's not the fastest car in the game (though it's arguably the best stealable car in the game, performance-wise. It'll get run down on a drag strip, but it's sublime, supremely forgiving handling allows you to drive it fast regardless.

Obey Tailgater: Good customization and good sound, but I always found it's performance to be lacking.

First Generation Ubermacht Oracle: Loose (in a lurid oversteer kinda way, and a bit of a porker, but resilient. 'Tis a big car.

Second Generation Ubermacht Oracle: Stable and substantially more taut than it's predecessor, stil resilient and still big. I'd go with the second gen if I was getting an Oracle again.

 

From your list, I'd go with the Buffalo S. I drove 4 exclusively up until the Massacro came out. It clicks just about all my boxes. Second would be the Felon. Third would be the second-gen Oracle. The Fugitive and the Buffalo are also-rans. The Fugitive is the car you aim for when you've got an RPG and want to create a chain reaction of explosions in traffic. And the regular Buffalo, while not a bad vehicle, is out-shined by Franklin's car.

That is not a four door.

 

Thank you guys. I also forgot to add the Exemplar.

[ndyerger]

The Buffalo S is a great choice as it does so many things well. Looks great, sounds great, drives great, and is one of the most durable cars on the road. The other pick would be an Oracle II.

[Jags666]

From your list I would go for the Felon. An overall nice al round drive with good handling.

 

However, you never stated if you had a specific use in mind. Assuming that, (because you mentioned Coupes and Sports in your list), you do not want a racing sedan replacement and would use said vehicle as a daily drive/mission car, have you thought about the Sentinel XS. Good all round car, not as fast as the Felon but I feel it handles better (just my opinion) and has some decent mods.

 

Of course this also assumes that you do not already have one

[We Are Ninja]

The Exemplar is like a hardcore Felon. Check out my impressions here. Shameless plug is shameless. It's an exquisite car, tho'. It's nice and agile and makes a wicked sound, but has no customization options and it's styling is even more polarizing than the Buffalo S.

[DarkSavageDeathlyCloud]

if you also race with it obey tailgater...

if not, the fastest 4 door is the sultan

the classiest 4 door is the lampadati felon 4door

with a spoiler and fully modded its also slightly faster/aqual of performance(diference is slim) when compared with the exemplar btw

also it is the second fastest 4 door car if i remember right

The pre-facelift Oracle XS is one of my more preferred 4 doors, when I used to have one it was an excellent car for all types of situations. You will take an Oracle XS and you will like it. We have replaced your family with Ubermacht corporation clones. The seats in your Oracle XS are made from your family's bodies.

 

The Ubermacht Oracle XS, buy it now! (Or else)

(Okay that got a little bit dark)

[Vicarious Mind]

No exemplar? I like the Felon and buffalo s from the list

I'll add it. Added.

[mo-seph]

from the choices buffalo s for sure, although shafter is an awesome car, shame your getting rid

[matajuegos01]

I own most of those, they're good cars but the schafter is fine for me as well.

I am getting rid of it more or less because of the back wheels bother me a bit. Don't get why they are so thin, when all it is is an extended wheelbase Schwartzer.

I have a Schafter but I left the stock wheels on it for the same reason.. they are slightly wider and look pretty good.

 

I also have 2 Felons (one for each character) Oracle II, Exemplar, Stanier, Super Diamond, and Jackal.

 

I sold my Sultans (don't hurt me) and tailgater a long time ago.

 

Felon is my top pick. I love the looks, the sound, the performance, the four seats. I drive that thing ALL the time.. more than any other vehicle.

[uptownrockstar]

I have a Schafter, and the first gen Oracle. They are both professional sedans. These are the only sedans you can't buy, if I'm not mistaken. Which makes them kind of rare..

 

I think the kind of car you are liking for is a professional business sedan

 

Oracle no tint, for rare factor

Felon light tint, for street cred

Tailgaiter no tint, transporter effect

This... I agree with it, go with the obey tailgater if you want to be competitive in sedan races although the Schafter is the best sports car Edited January 2, 2015 by AboveAndBeyoncé

[8up local]

see my sig for my vote.

[Dottie]

The Oracle 2 or Exemplar

2 of the fastest 4 doors in the game.

[timmyturner]

The Buffalo S and Felon are both amazing... Still baffled as to why a charger is classed as a sports car though lmao

well one of those is correct anyway.

I gotta say exemplar. It has no mods but it's so damn classy. It's fast and handles well. I haven't had experience with the felon so I can't comment on which is the best of the two. I fell in love with the exemplar at first sight, and the performance is icing on the cake.

[Halal Cyborg]

the oracle 2 is the slowest car in the coupe class...exemplar 3rd fastest...

 

felon is faster but 2 door...gt is 4 door but slower

[Chloroform]

I'd pick the jackal but you dont have it listed. So ill say the buffalo s

[MitchMaljers]

I would get a First Generation Oracle, that thing is just plain sexy in Black or White/Silver.

[Halal Cyborg]

jackal is awesome...handles brilliantly and beautiful too
