NFS Carbon

im about half way done the game and it is pretty easy. alot easier then underground (or atleast it feels that way), but i havent gotten a new car yet. when the hell do you get to upgrade your car?? i started with the rx8 and unlocked a few cars then i realized that to play with them in career mode id have to put them in my garage..... wrong!

when do u get to buy a new car?

i used the camaro all the way up until the last few races. then i switched to the porsche for a race or two, and the lmabo merc once i unlocked it for hte last 5 race or so.
the chalenge series stuff is actualy harder than the career mode stuff. right now i have career mode 100% done, about 2/3 of the challenge cards, and all but one of the challenge races completed.

i started with the camaro originally and found it really hard to control. once i got the controller (im playin it on my computer) i started with the RX8 and it was soo much easier. about 5am this morning i hooked up a charger and damn she flies! 170 with no problem at all the only thing is i gotta get used to drifting it around corners and stuff.

if you guys have all those cars unlocked and are around the same point i am why the hell can i buy any???

one other thing for the speedbreaker reward card,how do i get it? ive used it a few times during persuits and didnt get it. do i need to use it during a race??

I beat that game so long ago... and playing on xbox 360 live... i got to xp level 46 in about 5 days ... i am like 150+ wins and like 25 loses... corvette is the fastest car in the game. I used the camaro, charger srt8 and the vette to beat the game... its a walk in the park.

Porcshe Carrea (in the game) can top out at around 300+mph McLaren is a tank... the only reason people use Vettes on Xbox Live is because they are QUICK off the line (if u launch them correctly) ... I have never lost on Petersburg Damn or Mission Street =)

I played with the euro cars in that one for handling. I used the alfa romeo for a few races till i got the lotus elise, and played that thing out till the very end when i picked up the GT40, and jsut beat the game, and i dunno, i liked the underground series more, you could custmoize more, and these story lines dont get indepth too much, i like that, instead of this repetative race win race win. there needs to be more of a storyh, or at least enlighten us more on it. thank god for the challenge series or it'd be collecting dust on my shelf. adn i hate how somethings cant be put together in the customizing, like when you customize a hood , you cant have a body kit on it unless its one of those customize kits, stupid. nice selection of cars, but the game was a little dull, and not even a challenge. I think EA needs to sit down and pull a Gran Turismo,instead of coming out with something each year, wait a few years, dont rush the development team,and make a decent game. Gran Turismo FTW!!!!!!!!!

The corvette is very fast, but I don't care for the handling on it.

I started with the Camaro, bought the Monaro, then the Caymen. Now I have the STi, fully upgraded, and I'm only a few races away from finishing career mode. Still haven't unlocked the Lambo Merc.

I enjoy it.....and I enjoy watching Tim spaz about the storyline almost as much as playing.....

I'm waiting anxiously for Forza 2 though......

i started with the camaro, the charger, won most of the special versions of the cars. I used the vette near the end, best accel, handling is iffy but not bad.

I like the Concept Camaro even though you cant use it in career mode. oh and cant forget about the Audi Le Mans.
