If we're considering every possible factor - performance, cost, usability in the game, etc - for me it would have to be the Tommy Kaira ZZ-II. I talked about this car recently in my 'GT cars with strange claims to fame' video, but for that I mainly wanted to focus on the version in GT2, and the mystery surrounding whether it actually existed or not. What I didn't really focus on is just how absurdly OP the version from GT3 onwards is in these games. Think about this - when fitted with racing tyres this car has the performance of an LM Race Car, but the game still considers it a road car - albeit a concept. In GT3 and 4 it was always pretty damn good, but the PS3 games are where it really went stratospheric. As far as road cars went it was second only to the Ferrari FXX in GT6 - a car that really shouldn't have been classed as one. But the big difference is that where the FXX cost 2 million credits, the ZZ-II was a barely believable 60 grand. And being powered by an RB26 it was also insanely tuneable. When fully tuned this car was capable of keeping up with Group C prototypes at some tracks - it was absurdly good. Seriously, I don't think we will ever see a car that broken in these games ever again...
