Sorry, just played it again today and the correct price is 280k. Got up to #3 today so all mods and cars unlocked. For 10k extra on the GT you can get the carerra GT, and goes witout saying it absolutely hammers. On a test track (the first one in custom race, all highway), I did 2 laps in 3:29 with the carrerra GT, 3:50 with the ford GT and 3:45 with the cayman S.

has anyone got the viper? I am up to number 6 and that gets unlocked next. Hopefully I can win it.

I won a CL500, after doing it up NFS reakons its quicker than my cayman. In a straight line yes, but around corners I am not sure; both are pretty close.

yeah the only cash I spend is modding them...and all I really do is wheels and paint.

No vinels, or crazy bodykits here....

If anything I make money from selling the crap they come with....lol

Yeah, the Viper sux! Was playing it over the weekend, my bro had already added a Gallardo, Mustang GT, and Viper to his Garage. I just helped him out with his career. We bought the Ford GT.... it absolutely hammers on NOS! Got it up to 380km/h and still pulling, just insane.

Beat Razor too

Yeah, you'll get a bit. But the Ford GT is capable of finishing the game. Haven't driven the Carerra GT so not sure how they compare.

The choice was easy for bro though, the Ford GT is his outright favourite car so all he wanted to do was unlock and buy it. Yellow with black stripes, and completely stock appearance :

Haven't actually had the patience to get to Level 5 cops, I usually get caught before it even gets close. And because I don't wanna lose money, and I've run out of Get out of Jail free cards, I reset the machine.

You think level 5 is hard, wait until you beat razor, you have to get away from level 6 cops! Took me about 10 goes to do it. On the upside the m3 hammers, but the handling is rather weird. At low speed its very heavy, but get up speed and I reckon its better than the carerra GT.

I'm challenging no 4 soon, but these bounties are getting a little tedious.

I won't the Gallardo with ALL the gear and nothing comes even close to it!

Thus far in my garage:

Mazda RX8
Lancer Evo8
Gallardo
Corvette

All with rims, different colour and mild bodykits in some cases.

I sold all the other junk I won. The Mustang wasn't doing anything for me, so I've only got one in My Cars in the non-career section.

I wanna try and finish the game this week, but with the new XR6T coming through either today or tomorrow, I think I'll be a little busy playing with the real thing!

I got my copy yesterday. Black edition. I started and I'm at the 15th guy. Not really sure what I'm doing yet. Graphics are nice, but I preferred to feel of the car's and the way they handled in Underground 2.

The aim in the pursuits is to ram cars and the coppers to get bigger bounties? I'm still feeling my way through the game. Love the graphics.

I found the handling to be a lot better then in underground2, i fired up U2 a few days ago and the cars just felt like they didnt wanna turn at all.

the aim of pursuits depends on what ur milestones are.
it can be from avoiding road blocks to damaging as much stuff as you can.

True, they slide alot more so control is more difficult. Its pretty cool, I just have to get used to it. On grass they seem to get lock. I can see it's getting realistic. Must be a bugger to drive with a steering wheel?

I can see this being a huge game.
