I bought a Miata, since it looked like a much better handler than the Cruiser. I used that little Mazda for about five race series till I had enough bread to buy an STi. Good little car; has 345 HP now.

Re: Starter car..

Yeah, I didn't think that you had enough money from the start to get and EVO.
Anyways, I started out with the Miata, and that first race, where you get like $1000 and its the Super Speedway, I did that race 45 times, did no mods to the Miata, and then bought a Corvette. I killed everything for a while, then I got some mods, and then killed everything, and now I have that Corvette, and about 50 other Skylines, Vipers, etc. and I still use the Corvette a lot.

Re: Starter car..

Oh, I didn't get golds in any of the lisences. I'm not that good yet. I have all Silver now. Most of the time I'm only like .1 or 2 off and that just isn't good enough.

if you start with a pt cruiser you can kick ass for a while, then go onto the first cup on super speedway and get £31,000 for a ford mustang. my mustang kicked butt and has now got 749 hp

What GT-Fan Viper said is what I did. I got the PTcruiser first, kicked some ass, and when I had enough, I sold it and got the mustang. kicked some ass with that untill I won the C5R. then I sold the mustang and never looked back. well, not till I had aboot 12,000,000 creds.

I started with the PT and I thought it was great as a starter car. That or just go get gold in some of the licence tests, sell that car, and buy the one you really want.
