When I usually do these videos on EVs I usually give these cars the benefit of the doubt, saying that they're not bad and giving them a few positive comments here and there. This one however I can't give any positives really, the weight of this car just mucks everything else up and handicaps the car quite badly. You lose so much time trying to hold its hand through the corners, you can't really capitalize on your opponents mistakes because it takes a while to accelerate back up to speed. I don't have problems with EVs in this game usually but the fact that they get the short end of the stick most of the time just makes me sad. As a huge Porsche fan it hurts to say that I don't like a car from their lineup, they are usually a joy to drive in this game but this one...this one not so much. 😢
@@retaliaterguitar2 Thank you for the nice comment! 🤗 It's not awful to drive all things considered, it's just the weight that's the issue in my case lol.
I was originally hoping that they would add a Sport Turismo instead as that's the more normal wagon/shooting brake. I also would've preferred one of the less powerful trims like the GTS or 4S just so we would have more PI to work with, I'd happily trade less power for the ability to drop some extra weight off this chunk. I'm tempted to build this for Dirt and see what I can do with it as I haven't touched it yet.
@@C1-Runner the only positive is that it brings your pi down so you can upgrade further, but it's criminal that the Forza front aero increases pi as much as it does, for the sake of +1 handling & +1 braking
to be honest car is pretty good, above average times as purist, heavy yes but easily manageable (personally). i noticed you were downshifting to 1st gear a lot, and it just makes the car slower. first gear is for launch only :3
I did make the mistake of switching to first gear a few times, it's kinda ingrained in me lol. To be honest I don't know if I even did this car justice really, I was just really put off with how heavy it was. This is probably one of the few times where I felt inadequate with my driving to be honest.
I do agree with you though to be honest this car was probably one of the low points for me, it does okay in some areas but the handling just makes it really hard to deal with.
so, this car will gather dust in my garage... you handled it nicely tho, all podium places... sidenote: you changed racing crew? i noticed you changed from eden to rfaa.
Thank you for the nice comment. It's not all bad but the handling is just too much of a hassle in my opinion. You can genuinely feel the weight on this car, makes things difficult overall. I did change groups yes, had someone from RFAA come by after I left Eden a while back so I joined.
@@Lada-cq2lr S1 and S2 with narrow tracks are always chaotic lol, you can always expect a wreckfest lobby. It's better for A and B Class in my opinion.
@C1-Runner Agreed, and you said it extremely correctly. It is a literal wreckfest there, which most of the time I want to throw my computer out of my window and never play a single Forza game ever again
It's an alright car overall, it is heavy but still usable. I'm just venting a bit on this video lol. I don't know how the -41+ clan keeps finding me lol, they're everywhere. 😂
It's alright overall, I feel the handling is probably the only thing that I don't like but it's okay. RFAA is a clan I joined after I left one of my older ones, was approached by a member to join them.
@@Csuen I'm more of a loner when it comes to racing games but I do it for the social aspect I guess, I might not be super active there but the clan itself is very nice to speak and interact with.
