NFS Carbon - All Character Cars Ranked from Worst to Best

[@ULTRAPOWER80]

Just to let you know,The Understeer is actually Oversteer,And Oversteer is actually Understeer on pc,Because the game was rushed so hard that EA accidentally mislabeled Oversteer and Understeer.

[@Joseph86__]

@@ULTRAPOWER80 I discovered this last night messing around with tuning settings and I also thought to myself that was really weird. But after the fact I somehow interpreted it as “slide here if you want to *correct* under/oversteer

[@bvedant]

I wonder if this was fixed in later version updates of the game

[@ULTRAPOWER80]

@@bvedant This was never fixed,And it also impossible to play the game without latest fixes because the save file would get corrupted after exiting,which means lost progress with each exit.

It makes sense that Darius’s LeMans is the best since he’s the final boss in the game

[@Joseph86__]

Bro’s car is OP in every aspect. Really now it all makes sense why I had such a hard time with his canyon race as a kid

[@AnthroGearhead]

Man said he does most of his racing on a track, explains why he was the best racer in the city

[@simonghostriley555]

And the fact the M3 GTR was brutally nerfed. A M3 GTR MW Specs gets #1 anyways.

[@lordofwhip]

@@simonghostriley555 the most wanted m3 is literally unbeatable in carbon lol, you can mod it in ,but it kinda removes all the fun ahd difficulty since you'll basically be lapping every car in the game endlessly

[@simonghostriley555]

Darius has a monster car and he's a monster driver, thats why he's the best final boss in the entire series, but anyways no matter how good you are when your oponent its Hero, and much less Hero in the BMW M3 GTR.

[@jeremiahheaven1941]

I passed Darius first corner in my Z06 on some initial d type driving and booked it like I was late for supper.

[@MAXIMUSGAMEPLAY563]

I hate that when we defeat Darius we cannot use this car in the story mode, although it is understandable because of the achievements that must be made

[@Joseph86__]

@@MAXIMUSGAMEPLAY563 nah bruh. If they gave you the M3 GTR at the end of MW they could’ve given you Darius’s R8. It made me mad af as a kid when I finally beat him after like 2 hours and didn’t even get his car in career mode 💀 although I guess I kinda understand because you had to go through way more to get the M3 back and it was the whole purpose of the game, I’m just sayin they could’ve done the same for Darius’s car lmao

[@TheTulip_]

Hi if youre still looking for a tuning guide this is how i personally tune my cars Engine - always pick max horsepower Transmission - always pick topspeed as it doesnt really hinder accelaration, you can even use stock Suspension - on pc, understeer and oversteer are misplaced, meaning that if you pick understeer your car is actually gonna oversteer and vice versa, 131 is usually the my setup for muscle cars, but if they still oversteer you can use 121, for the other cars i usually pick max oversteer unless it starts oversteering Nitrous - always max velocity Tires and turbo/supercharger - leave them as they are

[@joshcooper467]

Can confirm. Leaving the tires middle of the road gives them a perfect balance of Grip and Drift Bias. Turbo hardly matters, a neutral setting works in tandem with your engine's Torque/Horsepower

[@Joseph86__]

@@TheTulip_ hey I appreciate it I’ll give it a try 👍

[@TheTulip_]

@@Joseph86__ i just realised i did a little mistake in my little guide 😅 I did some more testing with the suspension and realised i didnt actually go full oversteer but rather full understeer, and upon retesting i realised for tuners and exotics you should leave it as it is or add a tiny bit of oversteer And i also forgot to add brakes, go front bias it you want to understeer when braking or rear bias to oversteer, its totally up to your preference, if youre unsure leave it as it is

[@Joseph86__]

⁠@@TheTulip_trying these setups as we speak and holy crap do they work. I’ve only used the RX8 and the Charger R/T so far but I got a 1:53.93 and a 1:42.68 respectively. HUGE difference. Seriously thanks a million. I’m not sure I could’ve figured this out myself.

5:20 no way, the Golf R32 can compete against 67 Shelby GT500

[@randymarsh4748]

what do u mean... in real life the r32 would be faster at any track

[@ultrakai7639]

Note: these are the effects of one tothe far left or right. For the engine acceleration and top speed are self explanatory But for theTransmission torque improves acceleration while horsepower increases top speed understeer can give you a little more control of cars but you lose alot more speed when turing while oversteer makes your car keep its speed around but makes it awful to use. Nitrous is also self explanatory Same with tires I dont know how break Bias works in carbon so i will use Real life as a example rear or Front brake Bias can cause undester or oversteer and chnge how efficiently a car can brake For turbo it controls at what RPM it actvates (there are some hud mods that let you see the RPM)

[@CapnCackler]

That Elise is crazy, it’s definitely one of the best T2 cars. Curious how the 240SX would stack up on your list, comparatively to the character cars, because that is also quite broken.

[@Joseph86__]

In fact it’s THE best tier 2 car 🔥 but the 240sx is also crazy I used it to beat Darius last night and didn’t even need to restart once lol

[@minaco2772]

@@Joseph86__ 240sx is extremely op in this game more then in Prostreet. Just like the Golf you can use the 240sx till the end of Carbon without problems

[@sundaydriver2117]

nice vid bro. only one car could dethrone the m3 gtr lol

[@frizzyrascal1493]

The RX-7 from Kenji definitely belongs in the Top 10. It’s handling is superb and you can easily conquer Silverton with it, plus it’s one of the best looking cars.

[@joshcooper467]

I know it says all Character cars, but I'm really curious as to where the S13 is on this list. For a challenge series car unlock that car is a Tier 3 disguised as a Tier 1.

[@Joseph86__]

@@joshcooper467 can confirm tbh, I surprisingly beat Darius in a fully upgraded 240 last night

[@Marcy2200]

This track is definitely a much better testing track than the one I used. Nothing too surprising here except for the fact that the muscles did worse than I thought. Like the Mazda 3 beating the Camaro and the Golf beating the Charger (by quite a margin I must say). Then again that is probably cause this is a more technical track than the one I used.

[@Joseph86__]

@@Marcy2200 for sure it’s because of the turns. I too expected better from some of the muscle cars but it seems like they just can’t handle technical tracks all that well. or maybe I’m just bad lol

[@Marcy2200]

@@Joseph86__ If I ever decide to retest Carbon, I'll definitely be using this track,

[@rezaulkarim3667]

​@@Joseph86__ That's because the muscle class cars in this game are supposed to represent straightaway acceleration

[@Dragonrah]

@@Joseph86__ makes sense they are all on higher speeds and acceleration. So its actually well balanced imo. If we had a more straight track muscles would have been higher up. Cause they always gain out of turns and on straights. Thats why the Corvette is such a beast ;) decent enough handling to get the job done and crazy acceleration top speed is not a problem to worry about on this track. Thx for testing

[@Playbeater-999]

Гольф лучше, чем тот же Шелби? Быть не может. Даже для этой трассы это супер странно. И почему для теста не выбирается трек "Монтесума Авеню" из Сан Хуан? Она как раз сбалансирована для всех машин, более того - ее выбрали сами разработчики для проверки автомобиля в начале игры. Очевидно, что трассы из Фортуны ориентированы по большей части для машин, у которых есть потенциал на прямых участках дорог. Так что тесты под сомнением. Update: 350z тоже не может быть лучше, чем Cuda. Если играть грамотно, то Ниссан здесь будет слабее. Update 2: со многими позициями тут не согласен. Очень субъективно.

But i'm just so happy that this car was that powerfull

[@milfordh.mercado2787]

@Dragonrah hahaha 😆😆😊 yes your right, dude the c6 is the best choice for racing so thank you and have a good day bye now.

[@B4RC0D3_YT]

Well, for that, this game makes you an insolent fool who trusts the lie about the Corvette. And people, including you, saying that the Corvette Z06 C6 is the best in Carbon are absolutely wrong. And I am the guy who actually hates it, for some reason it handles horribly at each corner as it keeps understeering in the medium speed, but what's worse is the acceleration. Mostly ones of Inferno and Los Calibries in the Corvettes keep getting rid of me behind in distance and I keep losing the pack. As I have found out, the acceleration is one of the reasons for the performance manipulation which makes the intention of cheating in order to make every race more unfair, just like the R33 Skyline GT-R.

[@razorr_o]

No Skyline though? Also, what tuning setup did you use for engine, tyres, transmission etc?

[@Joseph86__]

Nah only the main character cars since that’s what some viewers suggested. Nobody in the game drives a skyline unfortunately. Also neutral tuning because like I said at the start I had no idea how to tune the cars. Somebody in the comments hooked me up with an incredible tuning guide tho so maybe I’ll do a retest with every car in the game

Is there a mod to prepare like this since some car not appear on career mode?

[@haryabima5977]

Use extra options

[@haryabima5977]

@@dvl.xgaming If you want to use any add-on cars, you need use extra options and enable unlock everything (only works with cars from the original game itself, for other cars that from outside of the game you must install both binary and VLTED first). Installing extra options it's very easy, you just need to copy extra options file into your own NFS games folder (different NFS games, different extra options), that's all from me.

@@haryabima5977 I might ask again later since need to prepare a lot. Although already available redux one though.

[@ALKHAtheHedgehog]

Why don't you using debugging Camera and put the car somewhere to make a intro if you want tell something for a start with your own car?

[@notExTaZzY]

How do crew members have so many cars and when do they get to use them ?

[@minaco2772]

They change accordingly actaully.. Choosing tuner, exotic or muscle at the start will decide what cars they drive. If you choose an RX-8 at the start of the game and if you switch to elise or to any muscle the game wont change the crew's car. E.g neville will ise tier 1 tuner when you have the RX-8 . Tier 2 tuner when u get Kenji's RX-7 or buy a tuner or any other car class your self and start to use it. Same.goes for tier 3

[@fancyhermit7]

Recommended cars to use and buy in career mode?

[@Joseph86__]

- Starter car: Camaro SS- Best acceleration OR Nissan 240SX- Completely broken. Best tier 1 car and is pretty much a tier 2/3 car Tier 2: - Dodge Charger R/T: Fastest Tier 2 car but handling is a bit touchy - Lotus Elise: Best balance between handling and acceleration. Solid pick that imo can get you through most of Silverton and even let you beat Darius if you’re good enough Tier 3: - Corvette Z06. Best car in the game next to the Audi Le Mans but handling takes some practice - Lancer Evo IX- Best handling car in the game
