It would make racing a lot more interesting in the sports class. Now that the Zentorno is out though, I don't know if I'd want elegy in supers. Just because zentorno is so stupidly fast. If they did move it up, I'd want a buff.

No one is complaining per say. Gunit supposedly has a reliable source stating that this is going to happen. We are simply stating our opinions on the matter. I havent seen a single video complaining about the car being OP aside from Gunits video but Im sure they exist. You are far from the only person here that loves the car in game and in real life. The Skyline is probably the most popular car of the 2000's thanks to Fast and the Furious. The Skyline has more teenage boys masturbating to it than Selena Gomez. Ok, maybe thats a stretch but you get the point WE ALL LOVE THE CAR. It can still be dominate with a patch. The car is a full second faster on cutting coroners compared to the next closest sports car. Cutting coroners is a short track mind you. On a track like Rockstars Nurburgring or broughys North Loop the car pulls so far ahead that using anything else is pointless especially against drivers on par with your skill level. Other people have favorite cars too that arent the Elegy and they would like to be able to at least keep up and be competitive. I understand your affinity for the car but dont think that a slight nerf is going to make the car uncompetitive. If it moves to supers like Gunit claims is going to happen then the car is useless thanks to the Zentorno, Entity and Adder. You should be hoping its a nerf and not a class switch because one or the other is likely coming.
Also referring to anyone who thinks some changes to the car need to be made one way or another as "complaining whiny little kids" is pretty ignorant and probably not a good way to start out on the forums. Especially in a thread where many of your fellow crew members would be included in your broad statement. I assure you Im no little kid. Im 23 and most of the people on this forum from what I can tell are at least in high school or adults. I find your statements rude whether it was intentionally or not.

I don't think they should change the Elegy at all to be honest. 1. It is officially classed as a Sports car according to the wiki. 2. The Nissan GT-R is currently 4th place on the world's fastest volume production car list. 3. It managed 7 minutes 8.679 seconds on the Nürburgring circuit in Germany which places it 5th on the lap times for (production, street- legal vehicles) 4. I have always had a soft spot for the skyline range and one day hope to own a skyline r34. If i owned one i would know i could smoke pretty much any super car out there with my bargain car. To some this up, i believe this car was made to dominate all others in its class, therefor it should stay a sports car and stay un nerfed Because then it is true to its real life counterpart. In other words is suppose to be good so Rockstar made it good. Why complain about it ? The points you make are all focused on the real Nissan GT-R and not the Elegy. Which at the end of the day, as with every vehicle in the game, is still fictional no matter how much it may be based on a real life vehicle. Taking that into account the Elegy's classification and/or performance can be changed to whatever R* want it to be without it matching up with real life counterparts. It's not as if every vehicle in the game matches up with real life vehicles in terms of performance anyway. For example, I'm pretty certain whatever car the Z-Type was based on could not go as fast as the Z-Type can in the game universe. And the point about the GT-R being defined as a sports car therefore the Elegy should be also, is kinda irrelevant as there are already a number of vehicles in classes that they shouldn't really be in in real life terms, such the Voltic being classified as a Super, the Oracle being classified as a coupé. And lets not forget the main fact that ultimately GTA is a game, and that the completive elements of it, i.e. game modes involving versus multiplayer, should be as balanced and fair as possible.

Im sorry that i came across as rude, i sometimes get too worked up about stuff that annoys me. I just think that the elegy is in the right place already. If it gets moved to super class everyone will sell it or delete it from their garage and forget about it because it will practically become useless. Also the second place sports car will take its place and wont be long before people moan about that either, or maybe even moan about the Zentorno being OP. Just think they should leave alone whats done and concentrate on fixing glitches and banning hackers etc. Most casual people who play GTA don't know how to race and don't even care about car performance they choose the cars they like. So i don't see why this is such an issue hating on this quite frankly brilliant little car. And yeah iv seen that utube video with Gunit guy and iv seen Broughy's videos about it too. Also the issue about the Z-type needs addressing, the nerf was so bad that i can hardly drive it at all. Again sorry if i come across rude, i guess i get too passionate about what im talking about.

Maybe other people will get rid of their Elegy, but personally, I'll sell my Zentorno. I'd rather use the 3rd, and almost 2nd best super in the game than use something I don't necessarily enjoy driving. And I didn't think you came across as rude. Just trying to get your point across. It's all in good fun anyway.

Its all good, I understand where you are coming from. On the Z-Type personally I enjoy the nerf even if it is short term bc it made my monroe the best sports classic. I love when people pick it now expecting no one to have a Monroe. I agree with Broughy the Z type is ugly imo. I just like the monroe and he likes the stinger(I think)

Elegy to Super would have been a good move a month ago, but now the Massacro's just going to take over.

I like the Nissan GT-R in real life but the Elegy, not so much. I'd be happy to see it go since I only use it for racing. Also I think R* should give performance boosts to the Sultan and Stinger GT because the Sultan is really low on the sports class, and in the right hands can win a race, however on a straight other cars pull away from it, it needs a lot more speed and acceleration. The Stinger GT needs better handling because it is made for racing and it's really crap at it.
Someone mentioned a low rider class, I'd be very happy with that because my Manana just sits in my garage looking like a Banana. Also I think that the off-road class needs to be deleted and separated between Buggies, Pick-ups and the Sanschez should be Bike only. Also maybe a new category called Drift that could come out with 3 new cars in a DLC that are in that class and move the Futo to it.

I like your ideas, the only 2 things i wouldn't agree on is the sultan and futo. I think Rockstar got it right with the sultan due to the fact that its a subaru impreza / Evo, also its 4 door and that its free off the streets. Its a born rally car and souping it up anymore would make it werid. Its got the moves but not the speed or power of an equivalent sports car like the carbonizare. (for the reasons above) As for the futo the wiki even labels this car as a coupe and that's where it should be to be honest. It was a great little car and such a joy to drive in GTA IV.

Guys I really dont think the Elegy should be moved in the Super class.It's certenly fast enough to be there but speed isnt the only critiria for a cars class. Considering that sports cars in GTA V are actually supercars (in the majority) and the super class in the game is actually hypercars (again not all but the majority) then the Elegy shouldn't be in the supers class because it's defenitaly not a hypercar. If that was the case then the Bullet should be a Coupe or a Muscle car and the El Camino should be a compact!!!! I believe the Elegy is in the right place, I understand why you want it to move class but thats simply not how it works. Maybe start asking about it beeing nurfed but not to change class.

Why not create a new super-sport class and a hyper car class like others have suggested? That way they would have room to add more supercars that players are asking for.
Here's how the new classes should look like:
super sport (or exotic): Elegy RH8 Vacca Infernus Voltic Bullet
hypercar: Zentorno Turismo Entity XF Cheetah Adder (with added spoiler)
