This forgotten gem of a classic deserves some love as well. NFS: Carbon brought some new spice to the game as you play as the same protagonist from Most Wanted. Carbon is a lot darker of a game, feeling a lot seedier than your usual Need for Speed World. This game is all about driving with your crew to win the game, and the easiest way to win is with these absolutely goated cars.
10. Chevrolet Camaro SS
The SS might as well mean super speedy. The Chevrolet Camaro SS is my pick for a starter car. In general, I believe Muscle cars are the best choices, as they have the Top Speed and Acceleration of Exotics, and are just a bit pricier than the tuner options. This car in particular is a good in-between option, especially if you tune it up to be a little easier to handle on corners. The car is definitely a key example of looks good, and drives good.
What's Great About Camaro SS:
- Simple and Classic Look
- Has great speed and acceleration for its price
- Is a great all arounder once tuned
Camaro SS stats:
- Acceleration- A-
- Top Speed - B+
- Handling - B
9. Mazda RX-7
Dorito Powers strike again. The Rx-7 is the first car that’s really worth upgrading to. The RX-7 continues to have insane speed, and just like other tuner cars, is insane at handling and has a great feel when it comes to driving. This JDM Dragster is still the best car for taking the next step in the game.
What's Great About the Mazda RX-7
- Insane acceleration for a tuner
- Base Stats that absolutely dominate all tier 1 cars
- The cheaper price makes you have lots of spending room for upgrades

8. Aston Martin DB9
It may have 9 in its name but it deserves a spot a little higher than that. Most Exotics you should go for are near the end of the game, as these are the best cars in the game and have minimal need for upgrades. This car is the first Exotic worth investing time over with how speedy it is for the price. In comparison, you will easily dominate all the other tier 2 cars with this vehicle because it’s just that good. This car is definitely a worthy pick for your first exotic in the game.

7. Toyota Supra
A Supra with a Suped-up engine is just unbeatable. Just like real life, a carefully modded, and upgraded Supra can torch your average Supercar. The Supra is insanely cheap as a tier 3 car, and is in fact, even cheaper than most tier 2 exotics, this car is already solid, but with some upgrades, it is a machine for causing mayhem. This JDM icon is ready to go blow for blow with the opponent's expensive and exotics

It looks big and insanely mean, and it backs up those looks with insane performance. You can buy this car and still have lots of room to make this car drive even faster and go even quicker. This car is just everything you want out of American muscle.

The GT must stand for GO Terminal with how insanely fast this goes. The Ford GT is simply engineered to be a monster on the road. It’s the rare supercar built in the USA, and you could tell with its insane speeds and acceleration.

4. Chevrolet Corvette Z06
The Z in it;s name stands for every car racing it being at the bottom, cause this car’s obviously on top. The Corvette is not your average muscle car, as it has more things in similar to your average supercar than it does with a Mustang. This Corvette is a machine fresh out of the Factory, hitting Insane speed and accelerating like a monster right out of the gate. With just a bit of tuning this car can beat the brakes off of even the best supercars with ease. This car really is a supercar in the skin of a Muscle car.

This car is another one of those cars that just absolutely wrecks any other supercar on the road. The Skyline has speed and acceleration. Unlike other supercar killers, this car has super balanced driving though, balancing all that added speed and acceleration with a smooth handle. This car is truly the Yin and Yang of the car world with how balanced it is on all fronts.

Everyone knows the more letters and numbers in your model number the sicker the car is gonna be. Every car among the tier 3 exotics is worth the price. They are all insanely fast, insanely quick, and are built to be a machine right out of the shop. The Porsche 911 GT3 RS wins out against all these other cars because of its specs. The Porsche is my pick for the most balanced exotic. This car is deserving to be on the top of all those other Porsches as the king.

Honestly no need to call it BMW M3 GTR, just say the main car and people will know you mean this beast. This M3 is the same one from Most Wanted and is an iconic and legendary car for a reason. Besides being that car that people always look at and remember, this car was built from the ground up to be a machine.
