The Golf GTi is the best car for the first few stages of Career mode.
Unfortunately, you can only get it at the beginning of the game if you: a)
have an NFS: Underground 2 career save on your PC; or, b) cheat in some
money. You normally start with 30,000 cash, but can start with 40,000 and
get the Golf if you have an Underground 2 savegame.
If you don't have the money to buy a Golf, pick up the IS300 for handling
or Cobalt SS for speed. Regardless of the car you start with, don't spend
too much money on upgrades, you'll replace this car before too long.
If you're having trouble winning Blacklist members' cars, then you'll need
to buy new ones. The Toyota Supra is your next target after the starter
car. After that, the Pontiac or Vauxhall are good upgrades. Next, you
should try to obtain the Viper or 911 turbo S. At the high end, if you can
afford it, the Murcielago or Ford GT are the class of the field.
