I've been thinking of this series for a few days and thought it was time I posted it. Basically, each week I will share my thoughts on Cars in GTA 5 that have many different customisable options, good race pace, fun to drive or I just like the car for its price. But these cars will share an 'under-used/underrated' theme.
I will give a full analysis each week of why the car has been chosen, feel free to leave comments down below. These are all my opinion, however I will attempt to change your mind!
Typically, I will usually release the review on a Sunday around 9.00 PM UTC.
Week 1
Monday 15th February - Sunday 21st February
Invetero Coquette Blackfin
Price (to buy): $695,000
Performance Upgrades: $107,400 (Includes Armour and Bulletproof Wheels)
Week 2
Monday 22nd February - Sunday 28th February
Obey Rocoto
Price (to buy): $85,000
Performance Upgrades: $ TBA
(Includes Armour and Bulletproof Wheels)
Why?
Appearance and Sound: The Rocoto is based on the Porsche Cayenne, which is why it's one of the best looking SUVs in its class in my opinion. It has a smooth style and looks really great from all angles. For its price in the SUVs it really is a great all round car. The sound of the car isn't too significant however it isn't distracting so it gives a comfortable feel when driving the car.
Driving Performance: The first time I used this car (last week), was in a race with rainy conditions, which is definitely more difficult for its first time on the track. However, this car surprised me with its Radius like traction and it's great turning circle, making it my favourite SUV to drive in the class. The car has okay top speed, so make sure you are choosing it on track where the Baller can't outspeed you. I don't recommend racing it against Huntleys however it will still give them a run for their money, when driven smoothly. It has good brakes to add to its traction and unlike some of the more powerful SUVs, it has a tendency to oversteer, which suits my driving style more.
Price: The Price for this Car makes it affordable and a great Car to pick up if you have the money, or your looking for a cheap SUV to begin with.
Biggest Achievement in Car: Battling it out in the Rain against 2 Ballers, 2 Huntleys and a Radius, to finish second only a few seconds behind the Radius (which definitely is another car to try).
Week 3
Monday 29th February - Sunday 6th March
TBA...

Invetero Coquette Blackfin
Price (to buy): $695,000
Performance Upgrades: $107,400 (Includes Armour and Bulletproof Wheels)
Why?
Appearance and Sound: The Blackfin is based on the '57 Chevrolet Corvette C1. Although maybe not a 'Muscle' Car, its unique design gives this car a beautiful, clean look with a bit of character. The sound from the engine is remarkable and when driving the car you will certainly enjoy the sound when managing the throttle.
Driving Performance: The Car is definitely amongst some of the fastest Muscle Cars. It's great acceleration and turning circle, provides great cornering in low speed corners. With that added advantage of pulling away on short straights. It has average top speed which is okay as long as the track doesn't have an overly long straight.
The car feels very light and nimble, which in my opinion, is the most fun to handle. (Similar to the Comet). It's oversteer is predictable and easily counterable. The one downside to this car is its poor Armour. When damaged the car begins to experience resistive understeer that's hard to manage. Only use this on tracks that you feel comfortable driving on.
Price: Although the initial cost is extremely high for a Muscle Car, the performance modifications are relatively cheap. But for the price, the Car definitely performs well, even beating the like's of the Dukes on most tracks, when driven well.
Biggest Achievement in Car: 2nd Place in a 40 minute endurance race. (Against 3 Dominators and 2 Dukes)
