Pssst...buy the Mitsubishi GTO.
So it wasn’t just me then? That car killed everything.
As a kid, the AWD made it so much more forgiving. And once you did all of the weight reductions and upgrades, it could decimate just about anything.
It led to my buying a beat up old '94 black 3000 GT a few years back for $900(!!!) to fulfill the childhood fantasy. Not a VR4 sadly and it only survived a few months, but what a glorious few months they were.
I loved my green GTO in that game.
Yes, the green/white and white/green upgraded racing liveries are imprinted in my brain.
Pure shot of nostalgia thinking about that. I used to play it all the time with my Dad and brothers back in the day.
The Toyota 3000GT is also really effective. My friend and I used to play this religiously back when it was new. I used the GTO, him the 3000GT. We'd spend hours doing custom tuning and testing before saving our cars to memory cards and hanging out to race.
And a stock viper for making money in the normal car race!
