rtie Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) Are there any GTAO vehicles you prefer to their real life counterparts? I imagine this will be a fairly controversial topic but please respect everyone's opinions. No arguing who's daddy's got the biggest bollocks, just state your opinion and don't be a douche. We hear a lot about people complaining how the real life version is the better looking, which it often is and which I often agree with. But does anyone have any tribute guilty pleasures which they really really like? maybe even more than the real thing. Go wild. For me it's gotta be the Imponte Nightshade, mainly based on the '71 Chevy Camaro. I prefer it's overall body design, it's much sleeker and with it's exaggerated wheel arches it has very sporty looks. I also prefer the dual twin headlights on each side of the grill. I think this car represent the epitome of mixing a sports classic design with american muscle looks. damn boi, just look at it^ Yes I know they're very similar cars, just pay attention to the smaller details. And yes I know the Chevrolet Camaro is better, because it's a real car. Just have fun and immerse yourself.

Halal Cyborg Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) To me cars like the Sabre Turbo are better than any car it's based on because it has iconography of its own now. The Pigalle is also perfect Edited December 2, 2016 by Halal Cyborg Incorgnito and rtie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnocchi Flip Flops Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 While I can't say I enjoy any GTA car to its real-life counterpart aesthetically speakinhg, I will say I've had a lot more fun driving many them in GTA compared to their influences in order games. I like the FF in Forza but it's kind of a Ferrari that's just there. I always go for the F12 or 458. But in GTA the Bestia is my go to car and I love driving it. Maybe the front of the Bestia is better than the real FF? But definitely not the new GTC4Lusso. STOLARS, rtie and Aqua 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dacelo Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 The Pigalle is also perfect Summed up exactly what I was gonna say The SM's rear is honestly hideous but R* improved it a lot. The exposed rear wheels also look nicer than the SM's closed ones. Halal Cyborg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say the Bestia is on par or has a better looking front than the Ferrari FF (2011). I'm probably going to get whipped for saying that. The Lusso is on a whole other level though.

Night Machine Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) Why is my post gone? You asked a yes or no question and I simply answered "No". Just because there are no cars I like more than the original counterpart doesn't mean I don't love the cars in GTA. Please don't have my posts removed for no reason, that's not cool, especialy when I'm on topic and not being rude or vulgar towards others.

Anasterian Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I prefer Jester to the Acura NSX. And the Adder to the Veyron. I think that's about it. Incorgnito 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metoxys Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Might be super controversial but the Adder and the T20. The front of the Adder looks amazing and I prefer it a lot more than what we have IRL. The T20 looks much less... crazy? than the P1 and I think the P1 looks absolutely ridiculous whereas the T20 is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nacho Z Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 As much as I like loads of the cars in GTA I can't think of one that looks better than its real life inspiration(s). Shape wise some probably do, I think it's the lack of detail that lets them down for me. The back of the T20 compared to the P1's is a good example of what I mean. rtie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coelacanth72 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Brioso r/a looks better than any version of the 500, even so I can't bring myself to replace the mirthmobile with anything vaguely fiat. Also the banshee, the viper looks like a matchbox car in any model year. I really like that the bodhi can be a gladiator and a defender spliced together, 2 of the greatest 4x4s ever created. Rhino tank, with its rediculous unsloped armor, would be a boondoggle in the field but looks really mean harkening back to the tigerI and early leopards. None of the real firebirds looked quite right to me, but the Phoenix blends them into the perfect car the general never made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reform Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I like the look of the Felon more than the 2 cars it's based on. rtie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nido997 Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Better than the Huayra or the La Ferrari though? it s because the osiris is mixing the best sides of both , imo of course : the Huayra´s rear and the Laferrari´s front ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dacelo Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Another model came to my mind last night - IMO Rockstar's Z-Type looks a lot better than the real-life Bugatti Type 57. Something about the exaggerated proportions and the front end on the Z-type is just nicer looking. The Type 57's headlights being placed forward and the grille being so far back reminds me of a scared animal and kind of ruins the front end.

AllNighter1 Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 I love the Felon, much so I've taken an interest IRL Jags. Also the Dukes, the Massacro, Lynx, Sabré Turbo, Phoenix and the Jester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el carlitos Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Benefactor Schwartzer better looking than most Mercedes Coupes. Specially in 2013 when GTA V has been released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weekendwarrior Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 I prefer every car in GTA:O to their real life counterpart because they are much more affordable, cheap insurance and require no gas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malibu Club Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 The T20 without a doubt. The headlights on the P1 make me think of some kind of cleft eye. The T20 gets rid of that hideous nonsense in favor something much easier on the eyes with less chance of crashing your brain like a bluescreen on a windows computer.

coelacanth72 Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 It's always bothered me that the description of the T20 sounds like the P1, it looks much closer to a 12c, which forgoes the weird wraparound headlights mclaren will hopefully soon abandon. But yeah, the P1 is not a pretty car and the other mclaren models aren't much better. The T20 has them all beat, a much cleaner, classier design. Hopefully they put an f1 into the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
