They are some of the smallest form factor vehicles in the game and are relatively easy to control and use. If you are looking for the best compacts to race with in GTA V, then look below at the top three choices to purchase and upgrade in game so that you don't get caught at the end of the line in your next compact race. Keep in mind that whichever car you decide to go with to then fully customize it in order to maximize its potential when racing.

Declasse Rhapsody Compact Car GTA VThe Declasse Rhapsody was the top compact car to purchase and upgrade for racing purposes. It has a great top speed and acceleration. Also, due to the addition of its spoiler, it has great overall traction. At a first glance, the Rhapsody doesn't look like a winner, with its two door hatchback miniature demeanour, but overall it really is the a great choice for compact cars in terms of racing in GTA V. This car resembles an AMC pacer that was built in the 1970's and is relatively cheap to purchase an upgrade in game.

This car is very light, has great acceleration (like really really good acceleration), however due to its size you can lose control going over small bumps in the road.
