Need for speed underground 2 all car top speed

I think your all wrong any car in the game can be as fast as you make it personaly nfs underground 2 is my favourete game and I have completed this game with each car but I find it is not the car that wins the race it is the person controlling the car that wins the race but I think the fastest car that is tuned would be eather of the first cars you pick from (starter cars) my reason is and try yourself in quik race purchase any car twice and on performance on one car install all level threes straight away and on the other car same modle install the performance by each level and you will se that one is better than the other by stats so wen you start the game from beginig keep the car you start with all the way throu this way you have installed all performance by each level then your uniqe performance mods then your tuning I started my recent file with the corsa again and I find that my car does 237mph without n2o and reaches 243 with n2o and I fly throu cornors at minimum of 75mph and I can travel the full scale of the map at that same speed I find the corsa a inteligent little monster fir all races if statisticly tuned right for each race but allso I agree with other members celica, coupe, supra, and peogote

Cars featured in Need for Speed: Underground 2 can be acquired in career mode using a garage slot. A garage slot is unlocked for the player once they reach a new stage of the career mode, with a total of five being offered.

A garage slot can be filled by buying a car at one of the various Car Lots found across Bayview. An owned car can be sold to free a slot for another car. Unlocking a car for acquisition in career mode will also make it available to be customised and modified, within the Customise section of the main menu, for use in Quick Race and online multiplayer.

Owned cars can be customised within the career mode by visiting any of the body, car specialties, graphics, or performance shops dotted around Bayview.

They can also be performance tuned using a dyno, with the ability to alter some aspects limited until an improved aftermarket performance part is installed, by visiting any performance parts shop or through the Garage.

Discussion:

[Nfsu2] Fastest car?

(too old to reply)

Hello, I have the PC version of NFSU2. I found some specs on the cars, and these are the fastest on the quarter-mile (with no special tuning, no uniques, and just all level 3 modifications): Mazda RX-7: 291.3 ft-lbs, 441.6 bhp, quarter-mile 7.60. Nissan 240SX: 335.2 ft-lbs, 488.7 bhp, quarter-mile 7.53.

Now, are these the best cars for EVERY race type? The two with most hp are these 2, even if (maybe because they're quite heavy) they're not the fastest concerning acceleration:

Mustang GT: 488.1 ft-lbs, 551.7 bhp, quarter-mile 8.16. Nissan 350Z: 415.7 ft-lbs, 523.9 bhp, quarter-mile 7.86.

I'm still in stage 2 and just have a Miata and a Celica. What car shoud I buy next? Ideally, a car which could last as long as possible, with a good handling and RWD (i prefer it)...

Thanx,

Kamox

The Corolla is the fastest car for circuit, sprint, streetx, and url. No other car in NFSU2 can corner as fast as the Corolla. On most tracks the Corolla is 2 to 3 seconds faster per lap than any other car. The European Corsa is closer, but still 1 to 2 seconds slower per lap than the Corolla.

Here's a link to a video I made of an online 3 lap race with the Corolla, (no uniques as this was a ranked race). I probably should have geared it a bit taller, but won by over 7 seconds against an elite racer in an RX7.

Though the Corrolla is TECHNICALLY the fastest, it's also the ugliest. I used a 240sx up to stage 5, when I bought my 350Z...

I put together a list using various resources and specification data from the game...which shows that the Corolla is joint 6th in the list of fastest cars (that's with full upgrades).

Faster cars:- Skyline Miata TT Tiburon V6 Impreza

Cars equal to Corolla:- EVO A3

The stock Corolla when compared to other stock cars is 25th in the list of stock cars...beating only the 3 SUV's and the Ford Focus.

Regardless of NFSU2's flawed specs, NFSU2's flawed physics has given the Corolla the best cornering speed of all the cars.

Here's a link to a video of a ranked (no unique) Corolla doing a 3:36.75 time in a 3 lap online race at Outer Ring. A few players are well under 3:35 now. The Celica is probably the second fastest car at Outer Ring, and the best players can barely get it 3:39.xx. At any other track, the Corolla is 2 to 3 seconds per lap faster than any other NFSU2 car.

The 240sx is the fastest drag car, but I don't know by how much.

In what regard do the flawed physics give the Corolla better cornering?

According to the specs, the Miata has much better handling, and an equal top speed, coupled with a faster 0-100 speed it would make sense that the Miata can corner faster regardless of physics.

Besides which the fastest laps I've seen have not used any cornering, rather the driver just bashes into a wall and gets pointed in the right direction by the game. I haven't downloaded the wmv...is this the tactic used?

There being no damage modelling in the game, 'riding the rails' is an accepted technique. Doubt if any records can be established without 'scratching' the car. Also, in the real world, mounting a curb at full speed would probably lead to your next ride being in a hearse, or at the very least next to the driver of a tow truck. :)

In what regard do the flawed physics give the Corolla better cornering?

At the URL test track, the game shows the Corolla to have about 1.2g's cornering force on most of the corners (1.3 to 1.4 on the one corner with a dip and curbs), while the Mustang with "extreme" level parts, including tires, barely gets .80 g's, less than a stock Mustang with no upgrades would have. Most cars with "extreme" level parts are going to get the same 1.2g's of cornering force that the Corolla does in NFSU2, but in NFSU2, only the Corolla gets that much cornering force.

According to the specs, the Miata has much better handling, and an equal top speed, coupled with a faster 0-100 speed it would make sense that the Miata can corner faster regardless of physics.

The specs in NFSU1 and NFSU2 have never matched how the cars do on the tracks. In NFSU1, the Skyline's specs are the best, but the RX7 is the fastest car at most tracks.

Not on outer ring, which I why I chose that track, scrape a corner and you lose speed and don't get any NOS. Download the video.

Better yet, try the cars out yourself. In just a few lap, you can get the Corolla down to sub 1:10's at the test URL track without using NOS or wall riding, usually in the 1:06 to 1:08 range. There aren't any other cars in NFSU2 that can match this.

Thanks everybody for the answers (esp. Jeff Reid). I'm now in stage 3 with a Corolla and a TT. The latter is just for fun and has a limited visual tuning, just to keep it realistic (it's my car in RL and wanted to see how it would have looked with those BBS rims and some other touches). Moreover, slamming 350 Kw under the hood of a TT and see the effects is funny :-)) Here are my 2 cars: http://www.geocities.com/kamox/ida/u2.html I've to say that the Corolla is amazing... even if the acceleration is not the best of the group. It has an old-style, "junky/underground" feel that I like. I made several tests with an "unlock-all" savegame on various tracks with different setups and the outcome is always the same: the Corolla corners like mad and the 240SX is a dragster, very very fast but lacks something on the dynamic side.

What is the top speed car in NFSU2?

the car with the fastest top speed is the skyline. 420 KM\h (no joke ). but IMHO the fastest car overall is the Mazda RX7 or the Miata.

What is the best looking car in NFSU2?

The Mazda RX-8 is one of the most attractive vehicles in NFS Underground 2. You will feel the wonderful steering wheel after going to the Mazda RX-8 once you have had your fill of other regular vehicles.

Is there a car limit in NFS Underground 2?

Answers. You may have 5 cars in career and for each sponsor they will let you pick one free car at the car lot. So go and pick a car car once you get sponsored. You may have a maximum of 5 cars at once.

What is the fastest car speed limit?

The fastest car in the world is: Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut (330 MPH) That title goes to the Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut, which recorded a staggering 330 mph top speed earlier in 2023.
