_Medo_9 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 I'm currently out searching for a new car and I've decided it will be one of those two. I love how they both look and sound, but I can't get them both ... at least not now. I'm thinking ... with the 1.4 million base price I pay for the Nero, maybe I could upgrade my elegy AND fully customize it in Benny's ? On the other hand, the Nero might be more worth it on the long run. I won't upgrade it anytime soon but a month or two later when I feel I want to get a new car I could just upgrade it and it could feel like a new car ? So I need the community's help on this one ... could someone help me with the numbers ? How much roughly does it cost to fully customize and upgrade the Elegy retro ? How much does it cost to fully customize the Nero in LSC ( As I said, I'm talking about the stock Nero, not the custom version ) ? Also, If someone has some gorgeous screenshots with great paint jobs for either of the two cars I would appreciate it Thank you ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schroebedroeber Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Witch one do you like more? Get that one. I dont know if you race alot? Because both are very good, but most races i get in to, are set to supers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Medo_9 Posted July 17, 2017 Author Share Posted July 17, 2017 (edited) Witch one do you like more? Get that one. I dont know if you race alot? Because both are very good, but most races i get in to, are set to supers. I like them both equally ... If I liked one more than the other I would get it with no questions asked. I just want to know what others think about them price-wise I dont race alot and honestly I dont even care about the speed ... I just like how they look and sound Edited July 17, 2017 by _Medo_9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the nameless Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 100% armour, turbo, engine and tranny will add around 175k to both, and brakes will be about another 35k ish. Cosmetic parts on the retro can be pricey. The retro is likely to cost you about 1.2 million when all is said and done (full customisation costs just shy of 2M and looks pretty sh*t). The Nero doesn't have too many cosmetic upgrades and in my opinion looks better than the custom, especially with its retractable spoiler. Upgrading it further down the line might leave you disappointed if you want it to feel like a new car, it's performance increase is miniscule. Personally, I love both but use my retro more.

coelacanth72 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 The elegy is the better car for free roam. It's smaller, quicker off the line, and has more nimble handling. The Nero is a great racecar but it's size is a problem in traffic, acceleration is average, and u won't reach its high top speed very often. Having said that, there are much better alternatives to both if you're on a budget, but if u like em u like em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrostyJ Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 They're both excellent cars, and aside from which you like from looks it definitely does depend on how you're going to use them. Are you just cruising in freemode or are you actually doing races regularly? If you're doing a lot of races, the Nero is the option here. For freemode cruising, i'd probably prefer the Elegy retro myself. Not that you can't win races with it but there ARE better cars to drive in the Sports class.

spincther Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 buy both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nido997 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 the one is a sportscar with a huge tuning opportunities , the other is a supercar (one of the best in the game for that matter , one of the fastest too ) the Elegy retro costs around 900k just to convert , the Nero 1,4 milli ( with a possibility to convert it into a Nero Custom for additional 600k I think) so I would buy both , they are both excellent for the money .... but if you really have to choose one ... well Idk , the Nero costs "only" 400k more ...

Phmiller714 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 good choice with the Nero. It really blows away the retro looks wise. It's fast as hell and will dominate in races if youre a good driver. Did I mention it looks good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
