Which NFS game had the best career mode starting cars?

Post by SkeeteRX7 »

Well, the topic is pretty self-explanatory. Personally, I think Need For Speed: Underground 2 had the best starters, with the Silvia and the Miata.

It depends. Performance or just overall? Performance wise I would say MW, but UG2 had the Miata so overall I think UG2 had the best starting vehicles. :)

Well, can a 1.1 liter 356 be as cool as a Miata?

I'm starting to think the Miata is overrated.

High Stakes was way fun, and the starting cars were cool, but In underground 1 i got the civic at the first and beat the gane with it.

Hot Pursuit 2! (Lotus Elise, Opel Speedster)

Exotic cars, but 'crappier' than th ehigh end Ferraris, Lambos, etc.

In that game, getting the McLaren F1LM was like reaching heaven 8) and Lambos were actualy semi-God cars 8)

In MW, having a Lamborghini is like something normal since you get the Gallardo pretty soon.....

P.S. 50 posts + TurboCharged yippe!! :D
Still rolling my eyes :roll:

Is there any question? A 356 is automatically cooler than a Miata (the V8 Miatas come close, along with the Mazdaspeed Miata, but that's it). As for better, no, they're not better. Just cooler.

I meant Silvia meaning 240sx.


Also, V-8 Miatas destroy the point of a Miata.

Underground 2, European Version. Just loved the Vauxhall Corsa and beat the whole game with it. Awesome handling on StreetX tracks!

Have to say High stakes but I liked the cars in Hot Pursuit 1 I liked the SL600 also

And ooh a cars coolness is not decided by it's engine size.

cause a Porsche 356 is WAY cooler then a Miata, there is no question about it. yeah it is not faster so?

I have driven a light yellow 356B once and it was simply put COOL everything was original including the radio, it was simply cool.

If you drive a 356, it simply says you got style!
If you drive a Miata it says, your eighter a girl or a hairdresser!

apart from the real cars, in U1 and U2 I never liked the Miata/MX5 in U1 it was the slowest starter car of the pack, in U2 the Miata was not the slowest starter car, have to give the Corolla credit for that. but it was not the fastest by far. and in the Euro version it wasn't even a starter car.

The MkIII MX-5 is not a chick car.....also, it is preference.

My favorite engine is only 1.3 liters!

I doubt very many people on this board follow that logic (by which, if I'm not mistaken, the coolest production car would be a Viper). Come to think of it, it would make my Escort cooler than most Miatas.

Anyways, I'm leaning towards HP2 having the best starting cars, due to my completely biased adoration for the Elise.

No it's not also mail hairdressers use one :lol:

I am not saying it is a bad car, it is a great handling car, but in terms of looks a MX5 is rather feminen. and the 3rd generation looks rather weird, I personally like the 2nd one better simply because the lines work better togehter, the 3rd gens lights look simply weird.

A rotary engine's size is something completely diffirent and can't compare it with a normal engine.
