Started out with 98 Civic Type R Hatch and it tuned out to produce 234hp. Does good for the little power upgrades I installed. Then I bought and 2010 STi and have it putting out 400 plus hp. Haha it rapes the beginner classes.
Looking for a good FR car. Any recommendations?

check out some of the american muscle. 70 Chevelle and 71 Mustang are a couple of my favorites. They handle pretty well with the right mods, and they will put out more power than anything else you can get cheap and early in the game.

Once again the AI is bloody dumb. I wish they'd have figured out how to make the other cars act more like real drivers.
One example is the Mercedes academy. At the real ring slower cars stay right. They talk about it, but it doesn't happen. Why can't they have figured out how to fix that part? It's been the same in all the GT games. The other cars will take stupid lines, not move and completely screw you up. It's one of the stupidest aspects of this franchise.
That said, still fun. I had the exact same off at the exact same corner of Nürburgring that I had in real life. Good laughs over that one.

One thing I'm disappointed in is the rally portion. I just don't "feel" it. In Dirt 2, I can "feel" the road and the car. Here, it feels as I'm floating. And my navigator has got to go! I like the navi voices and pace commands on Dirt 2 better.
