The only thing that worries me about the new GT4 is the performance. In GT3 several of the cars didn't have as much horsepower as they really do and some of the performance times were a little off. I will be rather upset if they put the SRT-4 at 5.5 seconds to 60 like it is listed in the brochure for it, when they tested it at 5.3. What would be worse in my opinion is them listing the RAM SRT-10 at 5.2 seconds to 60 instead of 4.8, and 13.8 @ 106 in the 1/4 instead of 13.1 @ 108. Because all of the information about it, even the Dodge site, has it listed as slower than it actually is.

If you think thats bad, check out GT2. GT2 has muscle cars and it has my '71 Roadrunner in it, called '71 Plymouth Muscle Car to avoid the licensing with Warner Bros. for the use of the Road Runners name and image, with the 426 Hemi, and with all 3 engine upgrades and all other upgrades it tops out at 588 horsepower. They don't have a problem making their far inferior Jap toys like the Skyline, RX-7, WRX, Evo, 300ZX, 3000GT, etc. well over 1,000+ horsepower fully modified. Their cars start out around 300 horsepower or less, our muscle cars start out around 400+ horsepower or more and they can triple and quadruple theirs, but they only allowed the Hemi to gain 163 horsepower over the factorys well under rated 425 horsepower(all the race car drivers back then that drove 426 Hemi powered cars said they are more like 500-520 horsepower). Now that is total and complete BS.[sm=smiley7.gif][sm=smiley7.gif][sm=smiley7.gif]

And don't even get me started on their handling, both before and after full modifications.[sm=smiley7.gif][sm=smiley7.gif][sm=smiley7.gif]

I also forgot to mention the top speed when fully modified. I cannot remember it's exact top speed in the game, regardless of gearing, but in reality my Roadrunner will easily far exceed the the 150 MPH speedo with the stock engine(383), not to mention a modified 426 Hemi.[sm=smiley7.gif][sm=smiley7.gif]

I know exactly what you are talking about. They worship the Skyline! It's the fastest car from Japan, well a Skyline will be outrun by the stock SVT Cobra and Corvette, not to mention the Viper or GT.

Yep, but you'll never see it happen in their games.[sm=smiley7.gif]

By the way, the dealership that I got my SRT-4 from has finally got in it's first Ram SRT-10. It's on the showroom floor and it's black.[sm=smiley3.gif]

Lucky! They are supposed to be here "any time now." My dad has called the dealership twice but they still don't know exactly when they will be here, they just know it will be this month. I can't wait!

Ok, here it is $46,240. But there is a "limited stock" charge on top of that, it is an additional $15,000. So, it is actually $61,240.[sm=smiley19.gif][sm=smiley36.gif]
