I didn't have much time yesterday to run every single WP car in excessive tests, so first observations may not be entirely accurate:
1993 Toyota #1 T100 Baja Truck WP:
So far the best car in the pack in relation to its normal counterpart. Significant increase in grip which allows for higher cornering precision and stability. Worse power/weight ratio than the normal one but still reaches ~380 km/h on S900. Should be better than the normal one under every circumstance.
1996 Ferrari F50 GT WP:
The comparison on my test track still needs to be done but it seems worse than the normal one so far. Worse power/weight ratio because it has higher aero values that eat up PI. Doesn't seem to corner better though (in fact the shown lateral values are lower than on the normal one). Oddity on this one is its engine sound. Of course it has the Racing V12 because the F50 GT is the donor car of it but it sounds completely different. Way more grounded, not as screeching.
1960 Porsche 718 RS60 WP:
Seems worse than the normal one, especially as RWD because it has fully upgraded clutch & gearbox which wastes tons of PI. AWD swap is the way to go here but due to its insane front tire width it also has an unnecessary PI disadvantage against the normal one. Can be downgraded to lower A-class with the Firestone vintage tires. Higher grip level than the normal one due to the tire widths but also way inferior power/weight ratio. Maybe for technical A800 tracks. Testing not done yet.
2012 Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 WP:
Again a higher base grip than the normal one but due to its horrendous power/weight ratio on S900 no comparison to the normal Aventador. Ran ~5-6 seconds slower on my test track. Due to the higher grip and thus higher PI it can be run as bodykit Racing V12 swap on S2 998 which the normal one can't reach. Testing not done yet.
2017 Ford GT WP:
Probably the most interesting car in the whole set. Like the 720S PO or 911 GT3 RS PO its chassis is improved to a S2 998 base. Going to test a race tires build and my already shared off-road tires/race weight reduction build.
I built the other 3 as well but didn't have time to drive them yet. Can't comment on their performance yet.
In general the WP cars have higher chassis grip but waste PI for stock increased front tire width. In the cases of the Porsche and Jeep they also have fully upgraded clutch & gearbox which normally is a knock-out thanks to the huge PI waste.
