I skipped it altogether.

So I heard the next best thing after the Ferrari F1 and RB X1 is the Polyphony Digital Formula One car which is based on the '04 season. You can get it for 4.5mil at the used car section and you need to be at level 24 to obtain it. I think I'm going to save up for it...

Yes and no. its quicker get go but only has 5 gears, but it is something like 300kgs lighter than the Minolta. I do find the Minolta slightly easier to maneuver however.

Should I spend $400K on a Saleen S7? Seems like it'd be a fun car to have but I don't really need it.

You guys are way ahead of me... I'm just knocking out the series 1 by 1. I've completed a lot of the special events, about level 10-11 in B-spec, intl C license, etc. I am level 19 in A-spec.

Just did the Gallardo challenge today - did an aero pkg w/orange paint. Kind of looks like a Superleggera now. If you are on my friends list, you can see it (I sent it out to all friends).

This is because you have a life chris.

And is there a middle eastern version for ludicrous paint schemes?
