I have that game, but I downloaded a cheat that unlocks just about everything and gives you lots of money, but I just enjoy being able to choose any car and drive it around the track for a bit Grin

, not play through the missions to unlock cars

Edited:

BTW: That car is rubbish Wink

(get a Aston Martin DB9, or a Lambo)

Yeah, it takes to long to get money in my opinion, I like driving games where you just choose a car and your off. My favourites in the game are the Aston Martin DB9, Noble 12, and the Lotus Wink

If a Reliant Robin was the other choice, but honestly the Saturn Sky isn't bad, its worst than bad lets see: Engine 177 hp, 0-60 7.3 seconds (its almost faster to run, and the best part top speed 123 mph. Come on the front half of the car looks to big for the back. But the better choice for the first car in the game is the Audi TT, or the Sport TT. Wink

i have that game as well...

i really liked the online features of the game, like running around the island with your friends, just cruising around

another thing i really liked was that this is one of those few racing games that lets you drive a stick shift with clutch and everything

i actually made myself a little gearbox out of some joystick parts and a USB mini keyboard, plus a clutch pedal, so i could 'sim' it better

check it out here (never mind the different name... i use that one when HarvesteR is not available on forums)

oh and yes, the Audi TT is the bes starter car... although i think the saturn is much nicer-looking
my favorite car in this game is the Aston Vantage V8, i don't know why... it's not really the fastest or best handling car out there... i just really like it... i think the fast cars are too insane to handle when you're not racing, especially that Saleen S7 which is just on the cusp of being uncontrollable (you have to start it on 3rd gear to avoid a powerslide, and never go below it)

Cheers

I bought the TT sport. Much better. I kept the Saturn. Still is far better looking then the TT sport

The Saturn looks sporty, but it lacks performance-wise. Wink
