Good point.

Never really think about things like that though.

Without a doubt the two best cars I've driven thus far are the Futo (looks a like an early 90s Mitsubishi Lancer) and the one that looks like a Lamborghini (located acouple houses down from Faustin's home. It's in the driveway behind one that looks like an older model Acura NSX). They are both fast and handle extremely well. They brake and corner great and are more balanced when driving. You don't have to worry about it swerving or being too sensitive. Overall I'd go with the Futo because it has good acceleration and is fast (but not so ridiculously fast that you'll lose control easy) and corners great. Best overall car in my opinion. If you find it, keep it. Driving isn't a problem for me really with any of the cars but the Blista is ****, England. It swerves too easily and takes a while to accelerate.

The PMP 600 (Crysler 300) is a beast. I love that car.

The driving (just like most of the controls and other aspects in the game, like shooting and cover) were hard at first but now are very easy and well done. I'm using the GTAIV controls and it isn't hard at all now.

Someone needs to remind that car that certain roads do actually have bends and corners. It also can't get up steps too well (found that out during a mission) which is a pain when being chased by the police or gang members.

Yesterday I got bored of using cars so I went and picked Little Jacob up in a chopper and took him to the lap dancing place.

The Intruder (think that's the name) is also good for chases. It's not a good looking car by no means, but it can take a corner at near full speed and is fast enough to get out of a 4 star wanted level with ease.

Infernous FTW! It's a Lamborgini Murcealago. I have to poop so I'm not spell-checking any of this.

I got the Infernus yesterday after completing all Bernie's missions. Definitely the best looking/fastest car on the game so far.

I also just noticed there is a car dealership just around the corner from the safe-house on the second island. Felt like a noob when I realised I had never seen it before.

I walked in there around 10pm and the shop was still open. I took a car from the top floor and got an instant wanted level, they weren't caring when I was killing all their customers with a baseball bat!

All cars will go up steps with ease, some just have to be done in different manners.

I also like the Comet. That's the car I use when I race online, even though the racing is more retarded than a loaded short bus.

the infernus is faster but the super gt is the best car for actually racing becuse it has the best handling and acceleration. If you have to turn alot, the infernus will always loose to a supergt unless theres alot of straights.
