Ocelot Lynx: Appreciation Thread

I've not looked at the steering wheel, and couldn't care how it turns. If that really is the only reason you're not buying it then that's pretty daft IMO!

As above really, don't buy it and leave it exclusive for us who don't spite themselves!

How many of you moaning about the price wasted millions on a pointless yacht? ;)

Yachts were underpriced (per the games economy) by a massive level.

$1.7 million? 20th in sports? This thing is the Lectro of sports cars. :panic:

 

I know this thread is focused solely on the Lynx, but why on Earth is the Drift Tampa in the sports class? It would be so much better in the muscles class, and it would be able to compete with the top muscle cars. It's like the Blista Compact and Schafter V12 all over again! Not only that, but the Seven-70 is $1,000,000 cheaper than the Lynx and it performs way better.

 

I swear, does this company ever think sh*t through?

So you'd of been happy to pay millions more?

Anyway, that's another subject. The fact is, there has been tons of other stuff for sale that isn't the best, and even though they've been very expensive people have been happy to buy them.

Either way, if you like it then buy it, simple as that really :)

Like the car, but it'll be the first to go when new stuff comes and I like that. Resell is 1.1m for me.

I don't think this car has much identity, it feels like a Massacro knock off which itself didn't feel very unique at the time. However the character it does have comes from it's handling which I enjoyed a lot on the couple of test races I did with it.

 

It doesn't have enough about it to justify a purchase though, even though it's brand new I'm struggle to muster much enthusiasm. It's a nice looking car with enjoyable handling which could have been enough but not for me on this occasion.

i see the complaints and i don't want to buy

Well I was interested in this car somewhat, but that price is simply retarded, 1.735 million for a F-Type? No thanks. The people who could look past the price & enjoy this car, good for you, but I'll be staying with the good old F620.

Actually, I think the Lynx may go well in the coupes class, especially since it's quite close to the Zion in terms of lap time (the Zion is still a little quicker). It would most certainly be able to compete with the top coupe cars around a track, but it would absolutely dominate in a track with more straights and fewer tight corners and turns, which can be considered the downside, e.g. the airport track. Not only that, but it's manufactured by Ocelot, just like the F620 and the Jackal, both of which are coupes, also. However, it would be very expensive for a coupe car.

Just buy it if you like it.

 

People are whining because it's overpriced which is somewhat justified. But if you ask me, the car is excellent outside of the price. I know it's hard to ignore the price but if you do this car is pretty great. People will bitch and moan about how it looks like a Massacro. So change the damn front. Does it look like one now? No. And that it has no identity? Boy, look up what an F-Type is, that's what it is, clearly...

 

And it sounds like one. More importantly, it handles just like one too. People always bitch when a car doesn't turn on a dime like an arcade game, this car has unique handling and if you're looking for a race car then grow a brain and realize that it's a GT car, not a track car.

 

I feel like 99% of complaints are because of the price. Understandable. But it's truly a good car.

It seems R* is just hell bent on destroying bank accounts for shark card sales. I honestly feel sorry for people who haven't glitched money

I'm honestly worried about how this can affect the game's economy.

Maybe the price was a mistake and it was supposed to be only 730k, but now that they know that people will actually buy stuff even at this price, I'm worried that this will inflate the prices of all future released cars. Since people are down to spend almost 2 million for a sports car, what is next? 3 for a classic? 4 for a super?

Now this is post is not directed at anyone here, I'm not calling shots at anyone who bought the car and saying you shouldn't do it, because let's face it, people with modded accounts would buy it regardless and the effect would be the same. I'm just really concerned if this was a mistake that may change the game's economy to worse.

also a noticeable screw up on the "Painted Bumper & Diffuser" rear bumper option

Personally i like some faults on certain cars. It gives them soul, But the steering wheel position was a bit too much considering i spend all my time in 1st person. Far from perfect, But an absolute Hero of a car
What exactlg are y'all talking about. Probably don't want to know because once I see it I can't unsee it.

 

If its what I think it is then its probably the modeling/texture error on one of the diffuser blades (third from the right).

 

It's wider than the other blades and there's a texture error where the blade meets the diffuser (looks dented/damaged).

Mine most certainly is about the price, and as another forum member posted, the fact that many are willing to spend 1.7 M on a sports class car worries me about what rockstar will do with that information. I know inflation will trend ever upwards but at what rate now? In perspective, this also doesn't matter too much. It's a game. It will die at some point when GTA 6 releases at the very least.

 

In regards to the Lynx being based off a GT car I agree. But the ability to sport a livery should indicate some presence of performance, and not just on par with the V6 f-type offering. For 1.7 M I would expect some SVR magic or xkr gt3 variant inspirations.

 

Not sure I see/feel the similarities between this car I game and it's RL counterpart in terms of feel or performance. Nonetheless I know that I'll still probably give in at some point. Most likely when I'm bored of the game again and new releases become more and more spaced out.

Yup, but that only applies to one bumper option, so not hard to avoid, a lot easier to avoid than the hubs clipping through some rims, which is easier to avoid than that messed up interior.

 

Honestly, as much as i want to like it, 1.7 million and that eyesore of an interior mean its simply not going to happen unless its on sale at some point. Great looking car from the outside, give a few oversights, but jesus Rockstar, is it that hard to properly position a dashboard?

I like the price, It gets people talking and also there's never any at car meets (granted it's only been a day)

Between the price, the performance and the messed up interior this has been the biggest disappointment for me since GTA Online came out.

Shame, it looks so good.

Love the looks and customization. Love the fact there is a jacket to match my car!

 

Hate the performance. Hate the price. (drop 1 million and add it to coupes class i guess)

People who are complaining about the price are ridiculous. It's not even the most expensive car.

 

I don't miss my Massacro. I thought I would, I don't.

More money should not equal the "fastest" vehicle; and even if it did; I pity you for needing to always buy the optimum vehicle of each class; letting the vehicle do all the work for you....Shame...shame...how can you look yourself in the mirror? This applies to both of you somewhat :)

Scaglietti, how old are you? I'm asking because I've noticed you act like a child any time someone disagrees with you. I'm guessing 15-20?
