You mean the Escudo.

It's one of the fastest cars in the games. IMO, the best on the Trial Mountain.

Escudo...
One sentence explains the cars raw power

"734.5 kw / 985 bhp @ 8100 rpm"

Thats it pretty cool for a Twin turbo 6 cylinder!!! And thats all I got to say about that!

"SUBARU" is a Japanese word meaning "unite," as well as a term identifying a cluster of six stars which the Greeks called the Pleiades -- part of the Taurus constellation. According to Greek mythology, Atlas' daughters turned into this group of stars.

I was dissapointed that you couldn't tune the NSX as much but I like the fact that you can at least control it good in GT2.

Makes you want to think of what will be in the Gran Turismo game after A-Spec.

Can't wait.

The Escudo has an mid-mounted and rear-mounted engine, no? Both V-6 turbocharged and supercharged? It's too bad the Escudo is so damn ugly. Hopefully the next GT will have the Suzuki Aerio Pike's Peak Special.

I can't understand why everyone bashes the Escudo. Just don't use it if it bothers you that much. It was designed for the Pike's Peak International Hill Climb in GT2, and it works well there. The computer never uses it in any other race, so there's no need to feel out-numbered by horsepower. I have to admit I don't see any point of it in GT3 without the PPIHC, but that's okay because no one seems to use it. Should everyone hate the Formula GT cars because they are so powerful as well? They work well in the Formula GT Championship, and should be used just there.

My dumb friend uses it.

Just about the only even match-up we can figure out with it is him in the Escudo and me in the Speed 12 for 5 laps at the super speedway. (It takes 3 laps just to catch up!!! )
