Well I started GT4 a few days ago and found a good car for starters.
First you need to make money, buy a car with that you can win the Beginner FF Challenge or the MH Challenge because the cars you win for getting Gold in all 5 Races can be sold for 8000 - 10000 Cr.
Do this until you have 50.000 - 60.000, then go to the late 90's second hand car dealer and look for a Honda NSX with 280 HP/ PS.
They should cost around 49.000 - 59.000. The NSX I bought was a Type S from 97 I think and it was even after buying without upgrading a superior car for the money.
With that one you can compete a long time if you upgrade it good and learn to drive it well. I hope this helps you.

I think buying a very cheap car for around 5,000-7,500 and then winning the Rally d'Capri with it gets you the Toyota RSC Rally Raid Car. It's very quick and you can win a lot of races with it, but you can also sell it for 265,000 and have all the money you need for the beginning.

I finally got my Castrol MUGEN NSX but it's frustrating. After I got it I knewd why there is such an easy race with such a high prize: because the NSX isn't as half as good as in GT3. It costs 1.350.000 Cr. but I don't really think it's worth the prize. 500.000 max. but not 1.350.000. Now I'm a bit unmotivated to play anymore in GT4 because it's no fun anymore, I hardly got a damn RUF whatever (RUF = Porsche I think, don't know why the have another name in the game) beaten that wasn't even a racecar version with the racecar NSX, I was just like WTFH?!! That damn streetcar version thing was as fast in curves as the NSX the only difference was on strights but that's just stupid. I just hate the CPU rivals because the drive nearly perfect not only in GT4 but already in GT3 but not that extreme...

I agree in part, best car to begin with is the RX-7, once you've raised enough I went for the Nissan Skyline as well and modified that one as much as I could, the Nissan Fairlady Concept car was a great help, also once you have opened the Endurance and Extreme Events I would recomend winning the German Touring Cars section in the European series, giving you the Mercedes Super Tourer, use this to complete the Nurburgring 24hr race (on B-Spec mode) this will then award you the Formula Gran Turismo race car, that will decimate all that it enters
