po0k · 06-07-2002 6:26am

Stinger and Mafia sentiel so far.
The cheetah is savage too

Celt · 06-07-2002 12:02pm

Barracks OL or Fire Truck.

Dazzer · 06-07-2002 12:30pm

Police and FBI Car

Puck · 06-07-2002 3:45pm

The FBI cars, The Cheetah and the Dune Buggy. The Yakuza Stingers are cool too.

Does the tank count?

ykt0di9url7bc3 · 06-07-2002 5:59pm

Fire truck or Sumo van

so much fun to drive

tman · 06-07-2002 6:59pm

mine would have to be the rhino, finally completed donkeys turismo mission with it

Robbo · 06-07-2002 7:42pm

The Securicar so far. So much fun in a brick latrine of a machine with 4 cop cars trying to ram you off the road.

Acidflash · 06-07-2002 9:11pm

yakuza stinger and the cop car

DRakE · 06-07-2002 9:39pm

Yakuza Stinger
Bobcat
Infernus
Cheetah
Banshee

Dodo!

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar · 06-07-2002 9:56pm

has anyone else noticed that the cheetah and the infernus are INCREDIBLY fragile? the slightest tap and they burst into flames.. bloody annoying

Anima · 06-07-2002 10:13pm

what i find annoying with the banshee, infernus and the cheetha is that if you do a handbrake turn at speed you do a 180. Really annoying if your doing a mission where you have to get to somewhere in under a minute. I think the stinger is the best.

Ry · 07-07-2002 7:40pm

My Fav's would have to be(in order of preference):
1:FBI Car
2:Mafia Sentinel
3:Stinger

The stinger is definitely the most manouverable car in the game while keeping a good speed and a nice look. The sentinel is quite manouverable and also fast AND kewl lookin and the FBI is very fast and manouverable and kewl lookin

That's my two cent worth. Ta.

Kalina · 07-07-2002 10:34pm

The Banshee is my favourite because it's so light and fast.
The sentinel is one of the best cars in the game and the fire truck is the most fun to drive. It can go relatively fast and mows everything out of it's path without hardly slowing down!

deco · 08-07-2002 12:26pm

Ah the Stinger....great little car that...has some intresting times with that car:)

Even though those hillbilly pick-up trucks still hold a certain charm....;)

Celt · 08-07-2002 12:55pm

The FBI car is hardly fast....

Mossy Monk · 08-07-2002 11:54pm

the dune buggy is my favourite but i do like a spin around town in the army tank

tman · 09-07-2002 12:14am

the fbi car is pretty fast, i reckon it's faster than the cop car.
why the hell havnt they set up a forum for gta3 yet??? lazy bums!

.ak · 09-07-2002 3:46am

The Good: (In order of favourites)
Stinger
Infernus
FBI
Mafia Sentinel
Dodo
Sentinel

The Bad: (In order of worse)
Perenial
Stalion
Yakuza Stinger

The Ugly:
Perenial
Rhino
Moonbeam
Blista

The Reasons:
The stinger has to be my favorite because of the manouverability.. I don't think anyone here has actually hada spin-out in a Stinger.. And if you have, you're gayer then Ryan. And, naturally, they're fast. The rest on the good list speaks for themselves.. Though I've listed the infernus pretty high up because I've played that Hoods carbomb mission so many times. I also added the dodo because I'm a l33t flyer.

As for the bad list, I added the Yakuza stinger because it pisses me off.. It's no where near as good as the Stinger, and yet it's a gangcar. I think it belies its looks, and dazzles n00bs with its fancy happy-go-oh-gay-fag looks, but it's slower, sluggier, and IMO, uglier then the Stinger.

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar · 10-07-2002 6:59am

how do you fly that damned dodo?

tman · 10-07-2002 7:11pm

yeah, couldnt manage to get the damn thing off the ground for more than 4 seconds. anyone know of a decent faq for the pc version? gamefaqs.com seem to just have ps2 faqs, and i cant be arsed to search for one. (56k speed wrecks my head)

.ak · 10-07-2002 7:38pm

Get a joystick? :P

I dunno, it's supposed to be very hard (I have the PS2) version.. But then again, I used to fly MS sims with my keyboard (which was an absolute bitch, but you could get used to it). If you can't get used to it all, gta3mods.com (I think? There's a link to it on gta3.com anyways) has a mod that allows flying the Dodo on the PC EXTREMELY easy (easier then the PS2).. Have a look.

tman · 10-07-2002 8:22pm

nah, i wanna fly it the honest way.
but then again, using a faq isnt all that honest...

Kenshin · 11-07-2002 12:16am

I like driving the really fast cars that everyone has mentioned, plus the BF Injection which I think wasnt mentioned, and the dodo can be fun but somewhat hard to fly...

This is what you do to fly it:
The important thing is that the dodo is always completely horizantal and parallel to the ground, you'll constantly have to slightly steer to balance it...
And when you take off, make sure you slightly turn the dodo so that it doesnt crash into Stauton Island... you'll bounce back if you go too far into the sea, so dont worry about that.
Anyway, that's the basic idea...

I guess the rest is practise, I havent flown it too much either, but I flew it to Portland Island harbour once...

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar · 11-07-2002 12:42am

i flew it for 5 whole seconds once, i was well chuffed
