This thing is so much easier to drive than the Emerus its not even funny. 

That's what I thought too. The top speeds are basically equal between the two- and while the Emerus has higher top end acceleration- as in it goes from 2nd to hit it's top speed quicker, it's not a huge difference. The Emerus also will FORCE you to slide out many times unless you slow down to a crawl, while the Krieger is just like, meh, whatevs, and keeps going at 90+.

I'm actually fairly disappointed by its performance:

  • It reacts very poorly to bumps (not nearly as bad as bouncy advanced flag cars, but for a car that doesn't have the flag it's very bad)
  • It understeers more than the Autarch. It's Entity XF levels of absurd understeer.

It's still a very fast car, sure, but I vastly prefer the Emerus over it (even though that one is prone to spin-outs).

Brushed paint can be Pearlescent glitched? 🤔🧐 never know before

 

Yup! It looks really sweet too. Been doing it for years.

It's OP like the emerus tho. Both are equally matched. Also, it's AWD so a little understeer is expected. Rwd cars have more oversteer.

I cannot agree with the idea that it reacts very poorly to bumps. It's far, far easier to handle that in a Krieger than the Emerus. You basically get random spinouts with the Em, not the Krieger.

It's nice. Feels a bit soul-less, but at the same time very much full of spirit.

I must brought it and turns on a dime. Are you flicking the left stick instead using it as button? This thing literally goes around corners with easy like it ain't nothing.

Immense acceleration, fantastic handling and grip, top speed is good, i even like how it looks.

Feels like the perfect car, really, except it doesnt like bumps that much, and customization is kinda lacking.

 

Honestly though, its OP, but who cares, so is the emerus.

If there is more than one fastest car, than it is not truly overpowered. Well that's my pov at least

I saw that and immediately thought, that it reminds me of the C111 concept and almost posted a "Krieger Classic" suggestion, but then I saw it literally reads C111 tribute...

The R8 back bothers me so much, it doesnt fit the car in any way, why they just don't use the schalgen rear light design ? 

 

The R8 bits don't bother me, but the red accents and the giant slap of carbon fiber do.

 

A louvered rear windshield with a visible engine would've made it look so much better, especially the Turismo R or Verlierer engine.

The Turismo R engine in the SC1.

The only hope i have is that we get a classic krieger that is based on the CLK GTR. 

 

 

I'm totally down for a CLK-GTR. I still remember the first time I saw it back in the day. Our local Mercedes distributor at a car show when it came out. People lost their minds over the staggering 7,000,000 SAR price tag (~$1.68M).

 

I just hope they don't give it the Schafter headlights, if they ever decide to do one.

I don't care if it's not perfect, I really like the looks of it and how it drives.

There were a few stunt races with minimal straights where an S80RR would win against an Emerus, simply due to grip. The Emerus simply cannot handle bumps or sharp curves with altitude changes. My best times on Vespucci and East Coast were set by the S80RR. Beat them both by 3 seconds with the Krieger. This thing destroys and it's so stable. Hate that I have to remove the fins but overall, it's well worth the price tag.

Man it sucks because I'm not really willing to spend the equivilant of 30 or so bucks for 1 car, yet if I did I'd prolly make really easy money with these stunt races.

this is definitely one of the best cars in this DLC , even if it cost a whopping 3 mil. 

customisation is a bit disappointing , especially for that price (we can´t lower the suspension!!!) , but the car ia already a beauty so...

i had to go with a metal steel colour , even if i wanted a little bit brighter pearl (the pearl glitch didn´t work for me for some reasons)  ... the dark steel coloured wheels look so good on this one !

it´s definitely on par with the emerus performance-wise , even if I think the latter is slightly , just slightly faster in the corners (I have to test the Krieger in races to be sure ) ... one sure thing though, the Krieger is easier to drive ( AWD FTW).

EDIT: I might change the hood option , and go back to the stock one ...

It only works at Los Santos Customs.

Standard Deluxe 59

Two things I don't like about this car. The lower front is all blacked out with no way to paint any of it and i can't remove and replace the carbon fiber engine cover.

If this gets baited and switched like the XA-21 did in gunrunning where it was good until the following update either nerfed it or buffed the Vagner, this car unlike my XA-21 is getting sold.

What's the likelihood of this pricey lil gem ending up on the casino floor? I see it has those heavy cinder block doors like the Osiris🤔

None I'm afraid. The only DC&R cars on the podium are the Thrax & Gauntlet Classic, the rest is from the older dlcs.

 

There's a list here somewhere, but I don't remember who posted it.

Fun 2

 

The question is what happens after the list is complete. Start again with the Thrax?

Raced it for about 4 hours last night... I'm in love,  it's not the fastest,  but man is it great to drive, a faster, less twitchy version of the Emerus (love that car too btw) the Krieger handles beautifully.

How do your remove the fins? I haven't bought one yet.
