I have all of them except for the RE-7B. Could never find a look I liked for that one.

I only own the Faction lol.

I've been thinking about trading my Tampa for one (& a Chino) lately. Its a shame about the hood though.

Yellow Dog with Cone

All but the GP1 - that car is ugly as f*ck.

I love the GP1 but I would love it even more if it didn't had such a sh*tty performance due to the sh*tty low downforce that R* put on it.

 

I mean, it's an F1, it's supposed to be fast, not the last.

I agree this car should have been more it should have been a contender on fast tracks,

The handling should be better but not top tier as cars tech has progressed concerning grip, tyres active aero etc.

But it should have one of the fastest top speeds in the game it is a 240+ mph car in real life.

The only in game cars that should go faster in a straight line are the Adder/Veyron, Nero/Chiron and the Entity/Koennasegggg but the F1 would in real life handle tracks better than the Buggattis at least.

It is Rockstar Logic like making a 211 mph hybrid VW Beatle the fastest car in a straight line? But rubbish in corners? I think they have this the wrong way round.

I am not a super car guy, but isn't the GP1 pretty much a spot on recreation of the Mclaren F1?

 

Not a fan of that car I take it?

Design wise, R* is a couple of turn signals away from a lawsuit from McLaren.

 

Unfortunately, the GP1's performance doesn't live up to the legend that is the F1, especially in the top speed department. It sometimes can't even keep up with the Tyrus & the Tyrus is based on the "slower" McLaren F1.

 

 

Imagine if R*' gave us a tame Mamba, without the Cobra's signature handling (Like what they did with the Banshee), that's the GP1.

I clicked on all of them. These are all my favorite freeroam cars (missing Turismo R and Elegy RH8, also Sultan).

I thought my post would have given it away, to be honest. I'm not a super car guy in general, either. Then again, just because I'm a fan of a certain car manufacturer doesn't mean I'm going to like the look of all of their cars, but yeah, I'm not a fan of McLaren anyway.

 

I don't know why everyone is so concerned with my criticism of the GP1. Some cars people won't mind being criticised, but others people will take very seriously. People have different tastes in cars, just like people have different tastes in music. Rock fans usually won't be fans of hip hop music, though a rock/metal/pop fan myself, I like some hip hop music.

 

Each to their own.

I love the look of the Gp1, they nailed it. But they didn't nil the feel of a F1. It should feel super light and have the best top speed. I won a round the map race in a n 811 the other night, the Gp1 should be the pick for that situation.

 

It should have the single front seat too. It should be like what it is. Very fast but not competitive with a modern supercar on the track anymore due to lack of downforce and computer aides. I think of it like a sports classic like my F40 for freeroam.

A 1987 Buick GNX is a supercar?

 

Are you high?

 

Neither is a Skyline or a Porsche, the OP was on some good mushrooms

Retro (super)cars are my favorite type of car.

 

I currently own:

-Penetrator

-Torero

-Cheetah Classic

-GP1

-Elegy Retro

-Omnis

 

I used to own: (fates are listed)

-Turismo Classic (replaced for Cheetah Classic)

-Infernus Classic (replaced for Torero)

-Retinue (replaced for Omnis)

 

I plan to buy:

-Ardent

-Comet Retro

 

P.S. Why did I rid of my Turismo/Infernus? 1. I only plan on owning 20 cars (1 full office garage) 2. Im usually short on budget 3. Related to #2, Im not willing to buy another office garage.

"Forget the last 50 years of technological advancement and hark back to the golden age of driving before seatbelts, DUI laws, anti-lock brakes and emasculating GPS systems with nagging female voices. A prototype sports car manufactured by Grotti in the early 1970s, this marvel of Italian engineering will over-compensate for just about anything. Just like the Italians."

No Use For A Name

Yeah, the Cheetah isnt a classic unless your name is Roy Moore.

 

And seriously wtf? The Retinue? Its a first gen Ford Escort

Yes you are right about real life counterpart I guess, just that Rockstar states it was made in early 1970.

even still that's too old to be considered "retro"
