Whats the better car?


Recommended Posts

Malibu Club

Tempesta is easier to drive. The X80 has much more straight line speed, but feels slippery and is so easy for other people to throw around considering how light it is.

 

In terms of looks, I prefer the Tempesta since I've always loved Lamborghinis ever since I was a little boy staying up all night cruising in a riced out Murcielago on Midnight Club 3. The Tempesta is more tasteful and luxurious while the X80 is brash and avant-garde. Still love both of them though.

Depends on the definition of 'better' but I'd definitely pick the Tempesta of the 2. It's like a slightly better Zentorno and handles like a dream. It's competitive/ near the top in the majority of races, apart from any that consist of mainly long straights.

 

The X80 is much harder to drive, can't handbrake or 180 easily but is quicker in a straight line and in matte black looks like some kind of Batmobile. It's pretty expensive but I wanted one for the collection so have this too.

I do good in my X80, but it's not an easy car to drive. The Tempesta I have never driven, but that may be the better choice. However, the top speed of the Tempesta isn't as good as the other top supercars.

Both are good cars and competitive in different ways but if I had to choose between them I expect I would choose the Tempester because it is more forgiving and about quarter of the price of the X80.

I like how the X80 handles personally but a lot of people do not because it is light and skittish so I suggest you try a friends upgraded one first before you buy.

I will link some of Broughy's videos, he spends a lot of time concisely testing GTA cars and is regarded by most people as the most trusted source. Take his videos as a guide line tho, as his lap time tests are done on a particular track and different tracks will suit different cars but he does a good job pointing out the cars that can do better in different conditions.

The lap times.

 

 

And the top speeds.

Tempesta on regular tracks and for freemode, X80 Proto for stunttracks.

Non-contact stunt tracks.

 

The X80's light weight makes easy to get spun out and go careening over a ledge.

Well yes. The thing is i was talking about the driving in general.

The X80 is rubbish on normal tracks and in freemode. It does not like slow turns and you cant swoop trough traffic because it has so much downforce (with the biggest spoiler).

You will get spun out and run of the track with every car (not only the x80) in a public stunt race or standart race without non contact.
