Spring Cleaning: Garage Clean-Out (What to keep?)

[Sagrawa]

Funny how it turned into a 'Your five vehicles you would never part with' topic.

If I had to pick five without looking at what is best for racing, my picks would be:

 

Turismo classic (may be because it's shiny and new that my judgment is clouded on that one, but have always loved the F40)

Entity (My first supercar, for which I grinded my ass off before the Billionaire days)

Bati (My first ever purchase after getting a garage)

Gauntlet (My very first car)

Sultan (My second car)

Not even picking these vehicles for nostalgia; I still genuinely love all of these and drive/ride them on a regular base.

 

 

Motorbikes, hmmm... I'll leave to better knowledge from others, I'd say Bati 801RR for tight tracks and the Shotaro for straights, but I rarely race them, I'm a car man, almost Jeremy Clarkson about it too, lol...

Maybe you just made a mistake here and do know, otherwise you will learn something new again;) The Bati, with the highest top-speed of all bikes, is for straights and the Shotaro is for superb cornering. Though the Akuma is a very good substitute for the Shotaro if you don't have millions lying around.

Hey, fw3, I've cut n' paste your list and commented on it from a racing perspective.

 

• Sedan: Cheval Fugitive (and the Romero Hearse, just cuz I enjoy gifting them to people) // For Racing: Schafter
• Compact: Grotti Briosco // Good choice
• Coupe: Dewbachee Exemplar // For Racing: Zion (either one) or Felon (four-door, not GT)
• Muscle: Bravado Redwood Gauntlet // For Racing: Pisswasseer Dominator
• Off Road: HVY Insurgent // For SST Racing: Trophy Truck or Desert Raid, or for general Racing: BF 400
• Sports: Obey Omnis & Armored Kuruma // The Omnis is good for Rally-cross races, but you should get a Jester, Massacro, Elegy RH or Feltzer, perhaps even a Seven-70.
• Super: Annis RE-7B (I'm also keeping my T20, as well) // Good choices, although the Nero is my preferred choice.
• Sports Classic: Lampadati Casco (also considering the Infernus Classic... thoughts?) // For Racing: Turismo Classic
• Motorcycles: BF400, Bati, and Ruffian // Good choices.
• SUVs: none // Vapid Contender
• Vans: none // Gang Burrito or Rumpo Custom

Sorry, mate, but you're way off the mark from a racing perspective. Hope this helps.

 

EDIT

Didn't see Sagrawa's posts above. We pretty much ratify each other's choices.

I agree with what jenkiiii said here but have a couple more I would recommend

 

Coupe: zion is best, but exemplar also works

 

Muscle: Sabre Turbo Custom is also a good choice, a bit easier to drive than pisswasser Dominator

 

Motorcycle: the listed are good choices but also shotaro and Hakuchou drag

 

Edit: five I wouldn't part with (there's actually more than that but I list five)

 

Nero Custom

Re-7b

Feltzer

Elegy Retro Custom

Turismo Classic

@ Sagrawa... I figured the Bati would be decent, and seen many use the Akuma too, I don't have the Shotaro yet and just assumed, a little like with the RE-7B and the X80, went by price and assumed at $2.25m it could be ideal, but never rode it, except the time I did deadline to unlock it... I'll 100% buy it, just I'm holding back until gunrunning becomes clear in it's details, or a sale, lol...

Ok, since the thread turned into a "your top 5", I will give it a go.

Choosing 5 is incredibly difficult tho.

I'm not into racing, so I don't care much about top speed and such.

 

My list looks like this:

 

Cobra (oh, I mean Mamba)

Stratos (oh, sorry I mean Tropos)

Dukes (Like others have said, it's badass)

Turismo Classic (I love that it's a sports classic, my favorite class by far and it feels like a super)

Daemon2 (by far the coolest bike)

I agree, and the lists can be stretched even further like the Huntley S in the SUV category, and all sorts of really good super and sports cars that are really competitive. And the Ruiner, Dukes and Blade work really well in the Muscle class.

 

Personally I think fw3 is making a mistake selling off his cars - perhaps he doesn't have enough time to grind?

 

At the end of the day though, you should keep what you like and not what other people tell you to keep, but I still think it's a good idea to include some good racing cars.

He's doing it to make room for new vehicles from Gunrunning and also for money reserves I'm assuming

2 x Contact Missions, 2 x Adversary Modes and 25% sale bonus on special cargo has resolved that issue over the last two weeks. No shortage of cash to be made in GTA online.

Right, probably just to make room for newer vehicles then since he's maxed out his garages

FFS I can't even fill a 60-slots office garage and you guys thinking about getting rid of cars? You guys seriously need to stop hoarding cars.

 

On other note, if I have to keep two vehicles (maximum) for each class, it would be:

• Compact: none
• Sedans: Cognoscenti 55 and Romero Hearse
• Coupe: Cognoscenti GT
• Muscle: Dukes and Virgo Classic Custom
• Sports: Elegy Retro Custom and Armored Kuruma
• Super: Tempesta and Nero
• Sports Classic: Infernus Classic and Coquette Classic
• Motorcycles: Nightblade and Faggio Mod
• SUVs: none
• Off Road: Merryweather Mesa
• Vans: Youga Classic

I was going to make thread like this with the question "if Rockstar would let us transfer 10 of our vehicles to the next installment of gtao which ten would you bring"?

@scaldy78, I think you should still make that thread in the GTA Next section... it's a great question!
