Ford Focus ZX3: Ford Focus ZX3 is similar to the Peugeot 206, it has an FF drivetrain model and also have light bodyweight. Weighs slightly more than the Peugeot 206 and also has lesser acceleration than the Peugeot 206.

Nissan 240SX: Nissan 240SX, also known as the S13. It has an FR drivetrain model and weighs slightly more than the Ford Focus ZX3. Nissan 240SX has similar stats (Acceleration, top speed & handling) to the Peugeot 206. Tends to oversteer in corners if the brake bias for the rear wheels are higher than the front wheels.

Toyota Corolla GT-S: Toyota Corolla GT-S, also known as the AE86 Levin model (The car is often mistaken for the AE86 Trueno, it's twin model). Toyota Corolla GT-S has an FR drivetrain layout and has an absurdly light bodyweight on 998 Kg. Has low acceleration and top speed while high handling stats. Tends to oversteer in corners frequently in high speed corners because of the light bodyweight.

Fun facts and info: Did you know that the Toyota Corolla Levin AE86 and Toyota AE86 Trueno are the exact same model and has the same performance base, but they were used in different things? The Toyota ae86 levin was more suited for circuit races, because it had better aerodynamics due to its different hatchback structure. While the Toyota ae86 trueno was more suited for rally, thanks to its sturdier and stiffer body.

Golf GTI (Volkswagen 1.8T Mk4): Golf GTI has an FF layout with some decent weight to it, in theory it has the least amount of Horse Power than all the other cars in stage 3. It has below 200 Horse Power in exchange of excellent handling and acceleration. Adding a turbo to this car is a must, or very recommended, due to the car's weak engine, the turbo will boost its power and become more competetive.

Audi A3 3.2 quattro model: Audi A3 has a AWD layout and is very heavy 1 495 KG, it's one of the first AWD cars you can unlock except the SUVs.

Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX: Mitsubishi Eclipse has a AWD layout with a heavy bodyweight, pretty decent acceleration and tops speed. But thanks to the all wheel drive layout, it can make up for the car's heavy design and increase its handling. The car handles similar to the Ford GT (Mustang), the only exception is that the Eclipse has a AWD layout, and therefore its handling performance is better than the Ford GT's. '''Due to its bodyweight, the car tends slide further when powersliding. Powerslide is simply a moment your tires lose grip and starts to slide, it's not really drifting. Because during a powerslide, your car is completely uncontrollable or very hard to control. Mastering the technique of powersliding is not a easy task, you must have 100% confidence of what you are doing and your estimations must be on point.'''

Mazda RX-8: The Mazda RX-8 has an FR layout with decent body weight for being a sport car, thanks to the cars incredible handling, the car has an clear advantage in street-x races or at any sort of turn. The RX-8 is an improved version of the RX-7 and also handles very similar, but thanks to the RX-8's slightly lighter bodyweight and its similar stats, it will have a standard to outperform the RX-7.

Nissan 350Z: The 350Z has a FR layout and is quite heavy, and it's also known for it's amazing top speed. Nissan 350Z is also the very first car you encountered in the game, in the beginning you will be driving Rachel's 350Z. The car is prone to fishtail and oversteer because of its powerful acceleration and FR layout, plus its heavy body makes it hard to control. Due to that fact makes it really difficult to use the 350Z in street-x and drift races since it will constantly spin out if you do one single mistake. It tends to overaccelerate quite often.

Mazda RX-7 (FD3S): The RX-7 is the RX-8's "older brother", it has an FR layout but with an rotary engine type, which makes the car a FD. The twin turbocharge 1.3L makes it a perfect sport car, its like it was born to cruise on the open roads and motorways at 210 km/h. Through game logic, this is the best average car you can possibly get. It's between the "good cars" and "best cars", it's easy to drive AND its powerful. '''Tends to handle bizarre in corners if the brake bias is configured wrong ( -12 brake bias to the rear, which can be changed in the Performance tuning/dyno option, it can be found in every Performance Shop). It also tends to handle bizarre on offroad or non-smooth surfaces because of its stiff suspension.'''
