Each to there own mate, I intend to drive every car in the game at some stage. Doesn't worry me what it is. Wouldn't be able to call myself a car enthusiast if I singled out certain vehicles.

yeah. everyone has different taste. Cars have become like Music nowadays. everyone has there own taste.

I rate the CCX will be the fastest car in the game. The EA have been, they might make it the slowest. If i cant touch 400kph with it on a high way, i will be left pondering. (off topic)

If yuo read Motor magazine (not sure if you guys get that mag) they caught the Swedes testing the CCX and it was making unreal speeds, can't remember the exact figures, but it was around the 350-400 mark

Giving the Bugatti a run for it's money eh? :twisted:

If the CCX isn't the fastest car in the game, I'll be sad. :cry:

Would've been great if the bugatti was in the game, even though i think it would be car that couldnt be customized. its a fat car, but still cool

I think I'll be taking the muscle car route for the beginning. The sound of difficult handling is much needed in a game like NFS. :)

Yeah handed it to the Bugati i'm pretty sure. Would love to see the Redback Spyder coupe make an appearance, but that is highly unlikely

Well that was because it was just a AI car, not a car that players was supposed to drive.

Still it was not supposed to be used by the player in NFSMW, like if you add Cross Corvette it is so sensitive that it is undriveable.

you can tell us how it handle's then. i'll take a trusty rx8. but with NFSC, do you have to stick with the car class? if you do, the skyline man, you wont get the skyline first time when clocking the game

Why start with a box car (Chevvy), or a Alfa. both are a danger to the ozone layer. esp. the Chevvy. Fumes all over the plays. besides we also have to think of drifts drags etc, and i think the rx8 will be the wiser choice

All cars in NFSC are a danger only for the nonexistent ozone layer over Palmont City.
And the Brera being a new model is more environment-friendly than the "O'so great" RX-8!

And it was said in a preview that based on your choice for a starter car you begin the game in a specific part of the city with races suitable for the exact car. Then, as you progres through the teritories and unlock more parts and cars, you'll have access to other types of races...

that does sound interesting. so are you trying to say that depending on which car you start with, you will do different racers that a muscle car starter might have?

Sounds interesting

I am sure you will be able to change your car after a while of playing, and i'll certainly buy a Skyline when its unlocked. 8)

i suppose, at this stage, all we can do is ASSUME the good/bad things, and be either disappointed/impressed at what the real game will actually offer
