You are asking what the road conditions may be in the future, it is crystal ball stuff and depends on many factors (wet season, grading or not, etc.
In general it is a dirt road on the NT side, combination of dirt/some sand, some gravelly bits, but with a decent 4WD + aftermarket
suspension + lowered tyre pressures you could do 80km/hr on most sections (not a speed recommendation, just another way of stating the condition of the road)
When travelling West to East, as you approach the Qld border and then on the Qld side, the conditions generally gets worse on the dirt bits, but this is offset by some sealed sections.
As to your car, stock will work if you are not heavy; LT tyres a must. With camping gear etc. I would assume you will be closer to GVM and personally I would have good replacement springs and shocks.
