The Corvette in particular is the fastest car in the game when fully upgraded, as with enough skill and perseverance, it can overtake Darius' [=LeMans=] Quattro as soon as the Duel begins.

** The game's car classification system, which divides cars into "Tuners", "Muscles", and "Exotics", is a gross oversimplification of car types, as in real life vehicles have wider and more specific classifications than just "tuner", "muscle" and "exotic"; this system being clearly based on the distinct vehicle subcultures of the time. Vehicle tiering is this as well, as you'll never see, in stock at least, a Lancer Evolution IX being in the same performance category as the Lamborghini Murciélago.

** Darius drives an Audi Le Mans quattro, which is basically the 2003 concept of the Audi R8. However, the car doesn't look like its concept model, as the front, back and exhaust pipes look more like those of the Audi R8 production model, production of which started in June of the same year as the game's release.

* BrandX: Not done directly, but similar to ''Most Wanted'', cars which aren't sold in North America (like Alfa Romeo) are simply referred to as "sports cars" over police radio chatter, where as others are called out by their manufacturer or at least the specified model to a few cars like the Camaro or the Corvette... otherwise they will say that they can't have a confirmed description about the car.
** Note that since the game reuses the police chatter audio from ''Most Wanted'', cars that didn't appear or weren't intended to do so in the previous game have their brand calls missing or are just referred as "sports cars".
* BrokenBridge: Unlike in ''Underground 2'' and ''Most Wanted'', Palmont City is almost entirely drivable except for Silverton area which is blocked behind holographic barriers and the player must defeat all three bosses to unlock access to Silverton.

** The game features the Porsche 911 [=GT3=] RS (997) as an unlockable car both through gameplay and via purchasing the ''Custom Car Bundle 1'' DLC pack. Problem is, to unlock the car via gameplay, the player has to complete the "Porsche 911 [=GT3=] RS" Reward Card, which among its requirements includes [[BeatThemAtTheirOwnGame beating an EA Moderator in a ranked online game]]. With online game having shut down (and online purchases also being shut down not long afterwards), this means that the car now remains permanently locked (outside of mods).

** Unlike in the previous game with the M3 GTR, Darius' fabled Le Mans Quattro can only be used in Quick Race - you can't use it during Career races or in Free Roam. You also don't get any Boss Bonus Cards from Darius like you do with the other Crew Bosses either, for that matter.
** The Lamborghini Murcielago in ''Own the City'' is unlocked upon beating the game (for free, no less), leaving you little reason to actually use it for races if you reached OneHundredPercentCompletion on everything. {{Downplayed}}, however, in that you ''can'' still use it for any races you didn't finish, or take it on a leisurely drive in Free Roam.



** Free Roam Challenges. Expect a rival crew who will run across you during your session and will challenge the you to a race.

This is likely due to ''Carbon''[='s=] wingman abilities; Yumi is a scout, meaning she will not only show you where the shortcuts are, she'll also make use of them herself, when most enemy AI do not.

** Downplayed with the sixth-gen console versions, which are for all intents and purposes the same game as the PC and seventh-gen releases, except that, apart from graphical downgrades, it has a cap of four cars in a race instead of eight and lacks facial motion capture cutscenes. The [[Platform/NintendoGameCube GameCube]] version in particular suffered the most as it notoriously compressed the textures to a muddied, Vaseline-smeared mess due to storage limitations.

* DifficultButAwesome: Muscle cars in the console versions have some of the best acceleration in the game, being able to go from 0-60 in a matter of seconds, and their top speed is nothing to scoff at, either. The catch? Their handling. Better get used to your car fishtailing or worse, rolling over if you don't get used to their subpar handling when compared to Exotics or especially Tuners.

* DubNameChange: The Japanese release refer to the "Tuner" and "Exotic" car classes as "Standard" and "High-End", respectively, though the "Muscle" designation is retained. This may be chalked up to cultural differences particularly within Japanese car culture especially with the JDM scene which the Tuner class portrays.

Alongside console, home computer, and arcade versions, the game also received portable editions for the Platform/PlayStationPortable, Platform/GameBoyAdvance, Platform/NintendoDS, and Zeebo (a short-lived console produced domestically in Brazil), titled ''Need for Speed: Carbon – Own the City''. While the portable games featured similar gameplay to the console version, they included new and modified gameplay elements, a different setting and storyline, and a different selection of AI teammates. The portable edition's story follows the player recovering from a disastrous crash during a high-stakes race that left them with amnesia and killed their brother Michael "Mick" Rogers, leader of the Lucky 7's. With the help of Sara, Mick's former girlfriend, as well as Carter and a couple other surviving members of the now-disbanded Lucky 7's serving as their starting crew members, the player races across Coast City and takes down rival street racing crews in search of the racer responsible for the crash.
