metoxys Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 (edited) Human-led design is a thing of the past. This is what happens when you fire your R&D department and leave a supercomputer alone with a textbook on computational fluid dynamics and some provocative anime. End result: to drive a Taipan is to put yourself at the mercy of a ruthless, inhuman dedication to pure speed and improbable curves. Be afraid. Costs just short of $2 million. Visually this thing is everything the FMJ should have been, but isn't. Performancewise... disgustingly low top speed on bumpy roads, absolutely disgusting downforce modifier of 1.2, traction is below average as well... so this one isn't really made for the track. It's extremely slow. Don't buy it if you want a race car. Edited September 2, 2019 by metoxys AUScowboy, R3CON, eyman and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HometownLC Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 (edited) Rockstar really loves them hypercars. Can't wait to pick this one up. Seems to be based primarily on the Hennessy Venom F5 Edited March 20, 2018 by HometownLC pointblank1994, APB, UnfurledComet and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wizooord Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 (edited) This car has to be the most sluggish feeling thing in GTA Online... Feels slow, dosn't it? Not fan of the off-centerd plate and the back end. I wanted to sell it back as soon as i got in to LSC. Sold my bucaneer and moved my bullet to my muscles garage for the time being to be able to store this with my supers, kinda regret it. I'm not a fan. The description said something about speed? Those were lies. And that plate just looks sad where it is. Edit: It's lucky it looks nice in the garage Edited March 20, 2018 by wizooord Insane Clown and Yellow Dog with Cone 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up2NoGood45 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 This car is painfully slow. Painfully. I barely beat uncustomized Nero's in a stunt race. Keep that in mind before you buy it, you won't be winning any races with it. It's a very nice looking car however, looks good in the garage and on the street.

cars24 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 The design looks so cheap, I have Zenvo ST1 vibes here, dunno why. This for 1.980.000... a definite no thanks for me. We Are Ninja and Yellow Dog with Cone 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RetroStyle Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I got my Venom!! Too bad its pretty slow, but sexy. Hopefully R* will remove the new coding that's handicapping the speed of the new cars..........in a racing update lol.
