Is the Nissan Skyline worth buying?

[Compton]

I am not a big fan of the Octane's look/style and I see the Skyline is back in the store. Is it worth buying if I am still learning the game, currently Platinum 3? I love the look of it... Can I still progress decent with this car or is Octane my best option?

Different hitbox, different car feels
if you love how hybrid bodies do, then you can buy it

However, i bought it 2$ in the past when steam sell them as dlc, and i don't use them nowaday, considering that most bodies cost way less.
Me? I'm using mudcat GXT, octane hitbox. It's a preference but you should try using hybrid first like vulcan, it's totally reskin from that car as it uses the hitbox. If you don't feel great hitting with the car, or you felt that you miss lot of shot, then don't. You would only make the car sitting in your garage.

yeah i figured that, and i tried it out. it seems ok but i feel octane is just the superior car! not in terms of looks unfortunately but just in hitbox etc.

Well, there's a few octane hitbox cars like mudcat, volkswagen gti, honda civic, etc. It's not like octane is the only octane there. But again, it's preferences.

if you want some octane bodies, i recommend getting to trading forums.

why do most people use octane if there are other octane hitbox cars out there?

Because the Octane has more cosmetic items than any other car.

skyline is my favorite car, it's all up to preference but i feel like aerials are really easy with it as well as flicks. Aside from that, octane is probably my go to
