Does anyone know how to get the G Coupe in the game?

 

Just have to beat some races man. It will come... Patience! I was dying to get it too All my friends made fun of me, but I hooked it up how I want mines to look.

 

Here is a link to a cheats page that gives you some background on what cars you get and when.

Oh cool! I didnt know the game had cheats!! Sweet

 

I just won the Coupe yesterday. It kicks a$$. The only thing I hate about the game is that you have to rice out your car to get full points. So I did that on the Mazda Miata I have, and pretty much kept my Coupe as clean as possible. But the coupe is very quick! I have it going 0-60 in 3.44 seconds according to the Dyno.

 

Do you guys play online at all?

 

i have about 15-20% of the game completed according to the game stat thing but HOW THE HELL DO U CHANGE THE BASE PAINT of ur car... WTFFFF
there are no buttons and a "graphics shop isnt avaliable to me yet... wTF..?

 

G35 sux in the game, u need AWD cars.

Skyline or Audi TT are both great.

 

Yea I noticed that. The AWD handle better. What are you using for your career car... I have a Civic

 

You have to go hunt down a graphics shop - it will have a red streetlight in front of it, and shows up as a red dot on the map. Here's one: http://pc.cheats.it/Need-for-Speed-U...ap-Cheats.html

I'm running a 240SX that's tuned to hit 0-60 in just over 2 seconds. I agree that the G isn't that great in this game. Also, the stock exhaust note sounds off.

 

Not to be a stickler but just to clarify, we're talking about "Need For Speed *Underground* 2" here. "Need For Speed 2" came out many many years ago (and is extremely crude looking by modern standards), and much more recently "Need For Speed *Hot Pursuit* 2". Underground 2 is the first of the NFS games to feature the G Coupe, although Underground 1 did have the 350Z.

The NFS series release order, IIRC, was:

Need For Speed
Need For Speed 2
Need For Speed 3
Need For Speed High Stakes (still one of my favorites)
Need For Speed Porsche Unleashed
Need For Speed Hot Pursuit
Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2
Need For Speed Underground
Need For Speed Underground 2

EA Games also produced "Motor City Online", a failed online multiplayer game that pretty much sucked IMHO.

 

You know I havent messed with tuning the car. Whats the best way to do it?

 

It's sad, but you will find the G35 pretty much useless in Online racing. It simply cannot hang with a number of other cars once tweaked. I used the G35 in single player and enjoyed it, but had to drop it for online racing. Believe it or not the corolla is the hottest car online. It can be tweaked to be one of if not the fastest car, but the big thing is it's handling. It can out corner any car in the game. For drag racing the 240SX is the best. The corolla is getting the rep as the "Noob" car online. Many will not race against one. All the stat leaders race corollas.
