One of the reasons I love sim racing games are because they turn you onto cars you would have never normally shown an interest in.
Gran Turismo got me into Japanese cars and drifting through the Mitsubishi FTO, Colin McRae Rally introduced me to Subaru Impreza's, Project Gotham Racing 4 got me into Aston Martin through the DBR9 and up till now I've never been bothered by Porsche. *Cough* Sorry, I mean RUF.
But a few YouTube channels have been expelling the virtues of Porsche and James May buying one years ago made me feel that maybe there's a reason people love them. So I loaded up the GT3-RS in Project Cars and now I can finally see what the fuss is about. Feels weightless to drive with no understeer, fast and I barely ever spin out with it. It's basically a Nissan GT-R with no understeer!
I've loaded up Project Cars so many times now just to play a few laps and have spent a whole evening going around 1 track, perfecting a lap time, with real time of day turned on so as it gets dark outside in the evening, the sun sets in the game. It's all my favourite racing games combined into one.
