How about a Type-S that's actually a Type-S? Sure it had Type-S badges, but it had unpainted side skirts (like a base) 160 horsepower (like a base) and a super low redline (like a base). I dunno why DC5s constantly get dumped on in games, but they definitely could use some shine.
I agree about the DC2 ITR though. I'm actually really surprised it didn't make the cut.
@144sxKTM This thread blew up haha. But yeah the DC5 gets crapped on often. In NFS2015 it underperformed. In the Forza games (with the exception of the Mugen DC5) the maximum tire width is too narrow for the car to be competitive compared to the lighter FF cars. The visual customization for it almost always seems to be lacking too. I have an '06 Type-S so the closes thing I ever got to my actual car was the ITR in Gran Turismo 5 and 6. We'll see though.

Agreed! I've had two DC5's, an 05 and an 06. I was so excited when Forza had the 05-06 bumpers/side skirts vs the 02-04, but they didn't change the headlights. What's the point!?
I just started playing Need for Speed 2015 a week ago (thanks to ea's free play). I didn't even bother with the DC5 ☹️
That said, I started playing NFS when the original came out, and I am super excited for Payback, but I hope there's some love for the DC5.
I have a 2002 Type-S and playing NFS2015 made me angry because it was so slow and you couldn't customize for *. The 2000 EK Type r was faster and had more customization. They need to step up there game for us DC5 owners.
