Best cars for Tuning

Want to quickly compare stats on all the cars in CSR Racing 2? Then this is the guide for you.

Below, we're listing all the base stats for every car in the game, and highlighting which car wins in each category. R stands for Rep Bonus, and F is for Fusion Slots.

Obviously, every car can be completely changed through upgrades and tuning but these starting numbers give you a good indication of that car's overall abilities.

We've put some thoughts on which cars are the best - both rare imports and ones you can buy with in-game cash - below.

Tier 1

Name	Cost	BHP	Power	Grip	Shift	Weight
MINI Cooper S	$31, 500 or 130 G	164	192	3620	500	2722
Veloster Turbo R Spec	150 G	201	5000	2877
Dodge Dart Mopar '13	Rare Import	166	160	325	3186
Toyota GT86	$30, 000 or 125 G	161	197	4250	2811
Fiesta ST	$28, 500 or 120 G	163	3500	2875
Abarth 500	4000	2469
Golf GTI	200	3755

The Dodge Dart Mopar '13 is a clear winner in this category, especially as it also has a 6% RP bonus and two fusion slots. However, it must be won in the Rare Imports lot, which means it's a lot harder to come by.

The Veloster Turbo R Spec is a good second choice, but can only be purchased with (150) Gold.

Tier 2

WRX STI	2875
Scirocco R	350 G	305	276	6000	3902
TT RS	370 G	340	5346	400	3200
Focus RS	335 G	345	6500	3273

The M235i Coupe is a pretty good car for Tier 2, especially because you can buy it for just $75, 000. It's light and has high power, but you'll need to upgrade your tires to bring the grip up.

The Gold-only Focus RS is definitely the strongest car of this tier at its base level, though.

Tier 3

M4 Coupe	$200, 000 or 700 G	401	425	7800	3585
RS 5 Coupe	$210, 000 or 735 G	450	8200	3946
Mustang GT Prem	$190, 000 or 665 G	402	435	7200	3665
Corvette Stingray	865 G	403	455	7000	3300
SRT Hellcat	825 G	404	707	9200	4439
C 63 AMG 507	405	507	8275	3963
California 30	Season Prize	12	483	9300
LB SRT Hellcat	Coming Soon
Camaro SS	785 G	406	426	8000	4040

The Ferrari California 30 is obviously the best in class - no wonder it's being kept back as a prize.

So if you can't win that, the SRT Hellcat at 825 G is a good choice with its high power, low shift time, and strong grip. If you only have dollars to spend, get the RS 5 Coupe.

Tier 4

GT-R (R35) Premium	$450, 000 or 1500 G	499	545	10040	300	3922
Vanquish	$475, 000 or 1, 575 G	565	7300
Viper GTS	$430, 000 or 1, 425 G	645	3390
F-Type Coupe	1, 665 G	501	550	9500	3825
SLS AMG Black	503	622	8800	3650
R8 V10 Plus Coupe	1, 840 G	602	3715
Corvette Stingray Z06	12	650	9400	3523
Shelby GT350R	15	467	8500	3760
Camaro Z28	506	9100	3814
AMG GT	1, 750 G	511	456	7600	3395

The GT-R (R35) Premium looks like a pretty good vehicle for this tier. Not only is it affordable, but it has amazing grip (too high, perhaps?!) and a low shift time. You'll need to work on power, and lowering the weight with a lighter body.

The Viper GTS is another good option: it has great power for the tier, a low shift time, and okay weight. Just work on that grip.

Tier 5

F12berlinetta	$1, 050, 000 or 3, 150 G	730	9205	3593
McLaren 570S	$950, 000 or 2, 850 G	562
Huracan LP 610-4	$1, 000, 000 or 3, 000 G	9900	3134
McLaren 650S	3, 325 G	604	641	9290	3150
Aventador LP 700-4	3, 675 G	690	9600	3582
488 Spider	3, 500 G	661	9986	3020
Huayra	606	720	9980	2976
458 Speciale	597	3075
Continental GT3-R	572	9800	5115
McLaren P1	607	903	9999
LaFerrari	949
Bugatti Veyron	1000	15000	4545
Aventador LP 750-4	740	7500	3362
Venom GT	1244
One:1	608	1360	14000	2998

The Koenigsegg One:1 is definitely the king of CSR Racing 2 at launch. It wins in almost every category, and isn't far behind the Bugatti Veyron on grip, either.

If you don't want to rely on Rare Import lot wins, the Aventador LP 700-4 is a good bet with its high power, strong grip, and relatively light weight.
