Which veyron? The gsv or the other one? "OG" means "original gangster" or just original. The "OG Veyron" is the GSV, whereas the "clone Veyron" is the SS. Hence, I was talking about the GSV... It is the best free-to-play car in the A1770 rank bracket. The SS is far from free-to-play; its original Festival had no kits cups nor coins cups. original gangster... lol.. btw thanks, u motivate me to continue upgrading my GSV since i just leave it before at rank 1728 .... btw i still believe it needs million fusion coins till fully upgrade... am i right?

If I am not wrong, you still need around 2Million fusion coins to fully upgrade it.

I haven't closely analysed the performance of the Ford GT 2017 yet. With that being said, my first impression of the car in its current state, and of the status quo, is relatively positive.
Even though most nerfs are underhanded (with certain exceptions; see: Porsche 918 Spyder WP), the Ford GT has been let off relatively easily (compare: the Rezvani Beast X and others).
The Ford GT could have been decked all the way down to Class B or even Class C. However, it has managed to more or less stay within its original rank range. The only potential alternative that might have been better would have been a buff to S1860, which was very unlikely to happen anyway (or, the rank brackets in Classic MP could have been removed, but this was never going to happen either). Perhaps the Ford GT could have been pushed slightly upwards to A1772 and been given slightly better acceleration, but you can't have everything. Plus, I have noticed that the Ford GT actually has better speed than all of the other A1770 (exact) cars, and it in fact has the same speed as my full-PRO Aston Martin Victor at A1771.
It must be noted that there was popular demand on Discord and other channels for the Ford GT to be nerfed to A1770, so that it could compete with the other top Class A cars rather than be forced to compete with the top Class S cars.
A similar popular demand has been seen for the Peugeot SR1 to be nerfed to B1590 (from B1599) in order to compete with the other mid-Class B cars rather than with the top Class B cars. The recent shadow-nerf to the Ford GT sets a precedent for a similar such nerf for the Peugeot SR1.

My only complaint is that the GT by Citroen is now the highest-ranked car in Class A, at A1799. This car has very ugly rims (for its wheels). It had normal rims before, but they were mangled in an update several years ago, and they've never been fixed since then. So, basically, the top car in Class A is now this ugly car with broken textures, poor performance, and an unsatisfying MAX+PRO rank (as opposed to the former A1800 of the Ford GT 2017).

What I find interesting is that there's now two Ford GTs at roughly the same rank, as well as two Bugatti Veyrons at roughly the same rank. (There's also two Lamborghini Huracans at roughly the same rank in high-Class B, although the classic Huracan has previously been a legitimate candidate for a nerf due to a reduction in its purchase price.)
By the way, I've just done a couple of consecutive races in Classic MP with the Ford GT 2017, and its performance is perfectly fine. As I said in the Unofficial Information Thread, the Ford GT's current performance (and appearance) reminds me of the Ferrari SF90 Stradale and the Ferrari F8 Tributo, both of which I am accustomed to. So, the Ford GT's current performance is very suitable for me.
The Ford GT 2017 is definitely not dead yet. In my opinion, it is currently in a good position because it will likely stay at A1770 forever and it is no longer a candidate for being nerfed to a lower class.
There's currently no distinctive king of Class A, so the Ford GT 2017 isn't really at a huge disadvantage here by lacking acceleration to a small extent. That's definitely its most prominent weakness at the moment (as opposed to its previous dominance at A1800), but it's not a huge deal considering that many other cars at A1770 suffer from the same problem. Meanwhile, the cars at A1770 that do have optimal acceleration tend to have other issues, usually to do with handling or nitro efficiency.

Asphalt Wiki has no informations, and I don't know where else to look for them.
I am and was always a big fan of the Ford GT, in reality as well as in this game (also years to the Ford GT 40 perferably in the Gulf painting).
I do have the MK II in this game and started tuo upgrade it (curently @1594, 8-5-9-5), but as we all know tuning is expensive. So I have to make the decission now, either to keep on with my MK II or to leave it and buy (and upgrade) the GT 2017.
Can anybody help?

So I have to make the decission now, either to keep on with my MK II or to leave it and buy (and upgrade) the GT 2017. Can anybody help? My guess is: - Top speed at around 9/10 (A1771 vs A1772)
- Acceleration at around 7-8/10 (compared to 10/10 of the ZR1, Veyron GSV & Veyron SS or 9/10 of the Zerouno)
- Handling at around 8/10 (comparable to the original Ford GT 2017 or the Ferrari 488 Pista in Class S)
- Drifting at around 8/10 (comparable to the original Ford GT 2017 or the Ferrari 488 Pista in Class S)
- Nitro efficiency at around 7/10 (comparable to the Ferrari F8 Tributo; vs 8/10 of the Lotus Evija)
I don't have the Ford GT MkII at full-PRO, nor have I ever driven it at full-PRO. I've also never measured its nitro efficiency precisely. Overall, the MkII does not seem to be a king in any area/s, but it seems to have decent all-around performance. I can't see it being much of an upgrade to the classic Ford GT 2017... Perhaps it is slightly better, but the differences are negligible. The Lamborghini SC20 still seems to be superior to the MkII.

There always the Preview Test Videos from Asphalt Ytubers like SuperGoku and CarsOn!. All the info you'll need are reliably stated including upgrade costs. In my opinion, keep at the MK II, it's technically the better of the two currently and even if you start from scratch buying the Ford GT, though faster to upgrade, the FUCs you'll need to buy and PRO it (outside MAXing) is probably equal to or greater what you'd need to finish the MK II at this point. You're already more than halfway through, so why stop now? 🤷

The MK II seems to be a tiny thing better in acceleration and handling, whereas top speed and nitro are identical.
These facts are without and with TK.
Only nitro efficency I can not rate, but what I see from the YT videos it seems to be absolutely OK. And, one day Ronan🌻 will give us the exact figures, I'm sure....
So you are right Moyosore7 , it definitely make more sense to go on with my MK II.

For now i have porsche spyder with wp at 1769 rank iirc, and is not bad for mp. Still i have about 130 wild cards for class A i need to spend. I dont want to buy a new A class car, i want to upgrade one from my garage if it is better then porsche spyder with wp. If not i will fuse that wild cards. I will post my list probably this week.

The Weissach Spyder deserves a buff to 1770+. It's the only one that was surprisingly ignored when all but every other Porsche was rebalanced to Competitive MP ranks. 🤷

Historically, this car was one of the kings and used to compete with the Lamborghini Aventador SV, which is now at S1859.

Have my GT Mk II now @1682 and the car is competitive with the other cars in that rank bracket, although it's top speed is 3,2 km/h less then my clubsport.
Therefor the Mk II has better acceleration and better nitro efficency. However, the biggest disadvantage of the Mk II is its really wide drifting radius, sharp curves or turns (like the Dubai right turn to the shortcut ramp) are extremly difficult.
I was wondering about that, because the GT 2017 (before being nerfed) was wellknown for a very tight drifting radius. My questions now are:
1) Is the drifting radius of the GT 2017 after being nerfed still that sharp as it was before?
2) My Mk II is in its current tuning for handling at 1.302 and can be tuned up to it's maximum of 1.338. Does anybody know or remember, if the GT 2017 got it's excellent drifting skills only at high or full handling tuning?

It has occurred to me that the current de jure king (technically) of Class A is the Ferrari 812 Superfast. However, realistically (de facto), the Lamborghini Terzo Millennio is better than the Superfast, sitting at the bottom of Class S. Also, the entire concept of a "class king" is null and void at this point, since it's more important to consider the kings of each of the Classic MP rank brackets, which essentially function as the new classes. The only purpose of classes aside from Career mode is to determine the cars that are available for each league in Classic MP, i.e. Class S cars can't be accessed until you reach Elite league in Classic MP.

I've always like the MkII for some reason and was unpatiently waiting for the pro cards to become available. Do you mind sharing your stats on this? I have too many MP tuning mistakes to try blindly again.
