I'm already broke, and I prefer old fashioned grinding to shark cards. But yes, this was a great decision by R*, it makes people on LG want NG consoles/PC and makes use NG/PC users buy shark cards. Everyone wins, we go broke buying all the new stuff and R* gets richer

Okay guys, not long to go now! Much like the IGGs and lowrider DLC's; once you get the update downloaded, open up TS and join the people's games so we can all experience all the new things together!! It won't be a meet structure although it has been referred to as an 'impromptu meet'.. I'd call it more of a 'let's have fun testing out new shit with friends!'

The armored V12 Schafter (standard, not LWB) is terrific! Handles well, has more firepower than the old one and offers enough protection to withstand a minor skirmish. That is - 2 direct missile hits (3rd = exposion) and 6 heavy sniper bullets/15 special carbine to break a window. Plus tuning options. The new king of Sedan class, according to Broughy. Well, it really feels like one. An awesome everyday car.
I first got the armored Baller LE (SWB) - maybe a good car in its own right but oh my it feels like a piece of crap on 4 pieces of soap. No traction whatsoever.
Mamba can be a serious contender in drag races, if it's got the grip at start. DC is real good. Feels great, anyway. Such a nice little car, a proper Shelby Cobra.
Verlierer's got good grip and traction, but low top speed and average acceleration (for sports) make it more of a showpiece than anything else.
Nightshade is a dissapointment. So underpowered. Maybe in the future R* will do something with it.

After Testing the stock versions of the cars, I can say I am somewhat impressed. So here we go... Enus Cognoscenti: - Very good on the road; great handling, though one needs to mind hairpins due to the vehicles length; great traction; decent speed and acceleration; took well to my test track.
- Armored: A lot heavier due to the extra armor; still decent handling, though is a bit top heavy (flipped over a few occasions); still pretty good for the Sedans class
Enus Cognoscenti 55: - An amazing sedan all around; with it being shorter it can take some magnificent turns with next to no sliding; Great acceleration and speed; Took on the test track like a champ; listed for purchase down the line
- Armored: A bit slower than it's non-armored counter-part, but still can handle its own on any terrain (and doesn't flip!); I don't care much for armored vehicles, but this own really does well
Benefactor Schafter V12: - Holy Shit! This car should not be in the Sedan class, it fits better in the Sports class; Great handling, though a bit drifty at times, it can rebound wonderfully; massive speed and monster acceleration; it destroyed all other sedans and even posted a great time on my test track, beating all the sedans (13:48.819), no other sedan has made it below the 14 minute mark (closest was the Enus Cognoscenti 55 at 14:10.518)
- Armored: Much slower than its unarmored counter-part, but can still hold its own against many of the other Sedans; still a bit slidey, but a skilled enough driver can compensate for the added drift the extra weight it gives;
Benefactor Schafter LWB: - My God, this is a boring car... I like it for it's proportions, the back doors on the regular Schafter was too small comparatively to the front doors; It does fine with everything that is thrown at it, but is just not a fun car. Handling isn't anything to write home about, neither are the speed and acceleration; I was falling asleep testing this car after 5 minutes...
- Armored: Same as above...
Gallivanter LE: - For an SUV, it does excellent; it posted a really good time for its class, perhaps the best; Great handling, compared to the less Sporty Baller (V. 2), it has no trouble with grip; has excellent acceleration and speed; This is another I plan on adding to my collection
- Armored: A great armor version of the vehicle; it does drift a bit, like the newer version of the regular Baller, but it can definitely do some damage on the track by still being one of the fastest in class
Gallivanter LE LWB: - Just like it's shorter brother, this one can handle the terrain wonderfully; it is a bit slower, but can still compete wonderfully; a bit unwieldy in tight corners; I'm not sure if I like it or not, I stilldon't like the stretched back doors, why is that even a thing?
- Armored: Same as above, but can handle a more brutal beating.
Imponte Nightshade: I'm a bit disappointed, this is supposed to be based on the Camaro Restomod, which would be much faster, but I don't necessarily blame the car, there seems to be an issue with all cars in the Muscle class... Anyways, despite that, it is a very well done vehicle, great handling, decent speed, and decent acceleration. I'm not too keen on the shorter rear end on this car, kinda makes it looked unfinished comparatively to the the cars it is based on which had a larger trunk area. Aside from the disappointing speed, I will be adding this to my ever growing list of in-game cars I want to own. Declasse Mamba: I LOVE THIS CAR!!! Absolutely love it! This is, by far, the best in this update! Great handling, surprisingly good traction, amazing top speed and acceleration. This car is rivaled by none in its class, it owns the second fastest time on the test course, it was only beaten by the Z-Type in lap time. This is a true replica of the legendary Shelby AC Cobra. This is a must-have, and will be my absolute first purchase with my new property! Bravado Verlierer: I can understand some peoples' disappointment with this car, it met my expectations. It is a fairly decent Sports car, and can be a great cruiser. It still meets the requirements to be a GT racer in the game, but it may just be a bit more difficult to win in this car. With it being based on both TVR and Weismann brands, and some slight design cues from the newer Panoz Abruzzi, I can see that it wasn't meant to be your grandstanding GT1 racecar, but just to be competitive enough to stand in the GT3 category. I'd even say R* was spot on with this car as well. It has decent speed and acceleration, and great handling. I look forward to seeing some of these in some races in the future. Well, that is it, the review is done. Keep in mind, my view is a bit subjective and I may be a bit wrong with some things here, but these are the details that I got from my own testing on my own designated test course in GTA.

The Schafter V12 is sports class

The Schafter V12 is sports class Yeah, it will be fixed in the database, but for racing, it is in the Sedans class...
