When I had the Lamborghini Sián FKP 37 @ Pro, I thought it would be just as good as the Centenario. But it turned out it wasn't. And when Aditya told me, in his opinion the Sián is not even as good as the Ultima RS, I began to doubt whether the Sián was the right choice for pos #5 of my Gauntlet grid. So let's find out today!
7 races in a row, Master Season day #6, starting at 2020 points, full boosters
10 points for 1st place, 6 points for 2nd, 4 for 3rd, 3 for 4th, 2 for 5th and 1 for 6th
The Sián is a quick starter with exactly the same acc as the Centenario. But for a light-weight car, it feels bulky in full drift. And it lacks agility, especially when on nitro. But then, when trying to compensate this using microdrift and triple-tap, you lose speed against the heavier cars.
The slower acc of this car makes it hard to not get wrecked at the start. It gets pushed around a lot, but not wrecked as much as the Lambo. Also, the agility and precision are much higher than the Lambo's. Like the Sián, it feels a little bulky in full drift, but not as bad as the Lambo. Only thing about the drifiting is that you have to stay in full drift quite long before you can fire nitro again, if you want to stay on the inside of the corner.
On some tracks, you might have a disadvantage with the Ultima, as it's slippery when wet, and the nitro efficiency is not the best either. But when you have clean air, this car can be really quick and really fun. 😊

It's also quite fragile in terms of getting wrecked and imprecise in terms of keyboard response. Even though the nitro efficiency is pretty convincing, all in all the Sián is quite a frustrating driving experience for me.

Summary
Neither of these two is really a winner's car like the Lamborghini Centenario or the Faraday Future FFZERO1. But in direct comparison, the Ultima is quicker, at least in MP, and by far nicer to drive than the Sián.
Whereas the Lambo feels like a champion but then disappoints, the Ultima feels like an underdog fighting its way up to the top. It's the Rocky Balboa among the S-class cars. 🥊 Or the Adonis Creed, for the younger members of this forum. 🤣
