i'm such a n00b at this game and I know nothing about cars.
I just hit lvl 10 and have 60k to play with and i'm still struggling with my current car to win the beginner races.
Should I save a bit more, or is there something decent to buy with 60k?
Someone recommend me a car plz!
Hey in 5 years I should have the plat lol

Hi Nick he's 4 choices for the starter cars on GT5, I'm currently nearly on 70% game complete, hope it helps you bro.
Sorry there all Jap but you will find they are in the top 10 of starter cars.
Mazda MX-5
The Miata if possible to add a bit extra power to the traditional starting car. It’ll cost you between 13,000 and 15,000 Credits, so enough for a couple of cheaper tuning options if you desire. The MX-5 has great handling, with enough grip to get you around corners at a drift but keeping you on track. The option to tune it up to a fairly powerful machine is there too.
Mitsubishi FTO GR ‘97
If you can find this available in the used car dealership then I highly recommend you buy it. It can vary quite dramatically in prices, depending on model, but either way it will be worth it. You’ll find this car hitting the high 180s or low 190s in the BHP and coupled with its strict tuning line and grip, you’ll find it a beauty to race in.
Toyota Celica SS-11 ‘99
Not only does this car look good, but is fast too. With a high BHP (and the cost to come with it) you won’t need much tuning or alterations to win a race in this thing. If you buy it with your starting 20,000 Credit balance, it will leave you with nothing but 20 Credits to your name. However, a couple of rounds in the Sunday Cup will get your finances back on track.
Honda Civic Type R ‘97
Here’s a car that will last you the long haul. If you want to build up a sizeable bank of cash then this is definitely the car for you. Its BHP of 182 will keep you ahead of most early races without any problems, but the handling has that sweet spot between drift and control. Careful tuning whenever it’s required will see you on top of most Amateur and Professional class races. This Is the car I started with so I recommend this one out the four.

No worries Nick, the Audi TT is also another good starter car if you don't want Jap.
