ddarko12 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 After a week of ownership I've gotten used to this fairly well. What can I say. Just another car at this point. Novelty worn off and I drive a lot of other cars now but when I hop in this it's not a negative difference.

Yellow Dog with Cone Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Ironic that the same handling flags meant to fix curb boosting that made it bouncy as hell are also the reason why this car is just as fast as the Pariah. lol kenmy13999, Arrows to Athens and Fatsanchez 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The engine resistance one is in an almost insignificant degree tho.

Marciliojunior01 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 I am starting to really love this car. Is such a ridiculous challenge to drive it but is also so rewarding when you are able to do it right. It seems like everytime you try to push it to the limit the car says back to you "i can do more, i can be faster than this" and you feel so motivated to get better at controling it. Is something you want to learn deal with. Is the same thing i felt with the pariah but in a way higher level. Paid two million and dont regret even one cent. And kmon the car is f****** beautiful. It doesnt hurt your eyes driving like the pariah or the vagner. Fatsanchez, Erased, Waldbear and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only good news is the Schlagen Gt * could* come Tuesday, and I'll just rip Ivs out, then walk out & go home to drive it.

Marciliojunior01 Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 (edited) Sorry for the bad quality, i dont know how to use the editor haha. This is my GTO, tried to be the more similar to the 812 as possible. Just a simple ice white and carbon black combo with carbon black wheels.

BUT the thing with the GTO is different IMO. I mean the Mamba is challenging as well, really great and fun to drive, but in a different way. They are different beasts, to each their own. I dunno, maybe its the novelty factor but I’m really enjoying the GTO as it is. But the flags have to go I guess. Yellow Dog with Cone 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottiedog123 Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 (edited) I think the GTO will still understeer without flags and would still be a challenge of sorts to drive with this and it's amazing acceleration, but would become really very good to drive. It needs to soak up the bumps like other cars, it's just ridiculous how there is no damping it seems. You can just be in what you think is perfect control.. and bang.. you are catapulted into the air. Im gonna keep one for now to look pretty and occasional laughs, but sell my other one. *And the front ain't that pretty anyway and the fkin front wheels don't fit Edited January 6, 2019 by Scottiedog123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I own close to 200 cars and bikes with my two characters. I like the Mamba. I like the Raiden (the Neon not so much, idk why). I'm a big fan of the Massacro, 9f, Itali GTB, Pigalle, Dominator, Sabre, Hermes, Trophy Truck, Rapid GT Classic, Stinger, Revolter, Sentinel Classic and many other cars. But right now my favorite car is the Itali GTO. Because it is the way it is. Fatsanchez, ddarko12, _Celldweller and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After a week I don't care, I'm used to it. And any adjustment needed via bumps is muscle memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Celldweller Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 I have a hard time seeing why so many here are butthurt over this beautiful car. I just bought it last night and, yes it's a bit bouncy compared to other vehicles. Overly so? Not really. I quickly learned the feel of it and found it to be quite predictable. The couple times I crashed it were not unexpected in the slightest. I tried to get unpredictable handling from it, but it never happened. I wouldn't cry if the advanced handling flags went away mind you, but I don't see them as such a big issue here. ddarko12 and Fatsanchez 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottiedog123 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 My butt don't hurt.. but it would if I drove it for real I can drive it. I can keep it under control. I like it. It's just a dreadful waste of potential. It should have stunning performance,in all areas. But it doesn't. And there is no excuse for poor wheel fitment. Some of the options are great, but again engine colour linked to secondary paint. Even with the modern pricing this car would be over priced at a quarter of its price. If it was as good as it could have been then it would be worth every dollar. I still like the car, it's great for a blast.. amazing acceleration. No composure. No ability to keeps its tyres on the ground. Im not talking about driver skill, I have plenty. It's like someone who knows nothing about suspension, suspended it. We liken GTA cars to real cars and if Ferrari released a car like this it would be ripped to shreds and they would be laughed at by their competitors. People would wonder what happened to all their amazing engineers, why have they been replaced by people that must be greengrocers or fishermen or liontamers or something, whatever they do they don't do suspension. It certainly is a thrill though! TCMike and DocHolliday9226 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddarko12 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I spent the whole day in both my Italis, yellow and blue, and honestly people just exaggerate at this point. Like really. The only thing holding this car back is a bad road. That's literally it. Design and driving impressions are on point. It just rides bad but I went all across town in two of them today and I haven't had any real problems and it is up there as one of the coolest cars Ive driven in the game. -shrug- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarauk90 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Ok, i think i have discovered a probable source of inspiration for the front look. The mighty Viper acr (last model). This is true expecially using the right colors combination: black secondary, silver primary, red stripe livery and full race pack. When possible i will upload some screenshots to prove this. Funny thing is i always loved both viper and ferrari front engined cars (f12 berlinetta mostly), watching the itali gto, i always had that viper aggressive vibe when looking front lights from certain angles, but i never really realized all the similarities the gto had with that beast of a car, until i thought "damn, i wish the banshee front looked more like a viper, but wait a second,look at itali gto!" Funny trivia, some years ago there was some voices about a possible dodge and ferrari collaboration to create a new viper, but this sadly never happened. Now, I like to think the itali gto as a good example of what that incredible collaboration could have done. Sorry for my bad english, probably i messed up some verbs.

Aghakhi Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I'm going to buy one since it's prodigious at stunt tracks, but that front wheel fitment is a f*cking eyesore Very crappy and I hate such things like a plague, but I'm guessing I'll have to deal with it. It isn't like the Pariah which in my opinion is just as beautiful, if not more I'd say since I really like how the secondary color covers details as small as the headlights linings, but with the advantage of having a proper wheel fitment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottiedog123 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 (edited) ^^^ I'm no fan of the Pariah for many reasons.. but I have to agree on the wheel fitment, it's awful at the front. The main reason I won't have one with extra splitter/skirts, as this accentuates the problem. Update on my gto story so far.. Picture heavy! This one.. Became this one. Ha.. fleeca.. got that right! $2+M But now she's gone.. can't justify keeping two at this price with the faults that I see... And this one.. Became this one.. Jumpin GTOs!!! You know when you drive in to central LSC with a bit too much exuberance and hit that lil bump.. Popped in a 171.5 mph earlier, didn't even get a good run felt like it could give a bit more.

It's just how undecided Rockstar was with it that hurts it in my opinion. What the heck they wanted with it I have no idea, is it a Viper, or a Vanquish Zagato or something else entirely? 812 headlights are a nice touch and all, but with all these influences why on earth is it a Ocelot when I fail to see any Jaguar on it? It should have been a Dewbauchee, and the Viper tuning parts should instead have been from Aston Martin and GT3 race cars or just generic tuning parts with aftermarket inspirations. But I find the car really pretty when properly customized (not overly riced, basically) or just left stock. It's also a well made model, detailed and pretty nicely sculpted. And the stock wheels are among the prettiest in the game I think It's among my unpopular opinions, I imagine. 1 hour ago, Scottiedog123 said: The main reason I won't have one with extra splitter/skirts, as this accentuates the problem. I think I'll just ignore the problem entirely and do it as a full on race car. Aggressive bodykit, full upgrades and all. Carbon fiber wheels and parts where possible, perhaps a livery too. I'm buying it with racing in mind after all haha Scottiedog123 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
