CHEVROLET CORVETTE ZR1

Patriot Missile

Few cars are more American than the Corvette, and the ZR1 is in a class of its own.

Arguably the biggest bang for your buck you can get, it’s as if Chevy poured as much power as they could into the car. Then decided it didn’t have enough and added more.

The LS9 pumps out an astonishing 638 horsepower, putting the Vette into a league of exclusive exotics usually dominated by European manufacturers. It’s very, very fast.

Chevy stripped all excess weight away, even replacing the standard roof with carbon fiber.  It’s so light, we like to minimise weight by driving ours naked. It’s the only way to be sure.

Incredible 15.5in 6-piston brakes will stop the ZR1 on a dime, giving you the manoeuvrability you need to embarrass your friends or Most Wanted’s cops on long straights, winding highways and even the tight back alleys of Downtown Fairhaven.

SUBARU COSWORTH IMPREZA STI CS400

Offroad Master

When we think Subaru Impreza, we think speed.  And mud.

The Impreza is one of our all-time favorite cars: an off road car somehow reminiscent of the classic Lancia Delta Integrale or the Audi Quattro.  Worthy rally champions and childhood dream cars.

Only 75 of this particular model – the Cosworth STI CS400 – were built, making it one of the most wanted cars in the world.

It’s the car’s rally heritage that sets it apart from the pack in Most Wanted.  Shake the cops with ease by getting off the road or hitting big jumps.  Make use of the excellent traction and acceleration to dominate stunts and jump records in Autolog.

The Impreza’s unbeatable off road, but your friends may underestimate the car’s performance on tarmac.  Boasting 395hp and a blistering 0-62 time of 3.7 seconds, the CS400 is one of the best all-around cars in the game.

It’s particularly useful at mid to low-speeds and will drift comfortably and easily on any surface and at practically any speed.
