2013 Concours D'Elegance Polyphony Award and demo

[GranTurismo916]

Did he just say the 350 was an Alfa?

 

[Duphman]

Did he just say the 350 was an Alfa?

An accident. He moved along graciously.

Looks like Valentino Balboni spilled some oil on the ramp. Oh, looks like a break. The suspense continues.

I think Polyphony should just have an office in Jay Leno's garage. I am glad he and Yamauchi know of each other's existence.

Jay leno!

 

[G.T.Ace]

The sound when he hit the ramp in the 250LM was... sad.
The engine sounds on the other hand are wonderful!

 

[CarBastard]

Whatever Jay Leno is talking about, I want in. I'm young, I love cars, that's what I want to do with my life. McPherson College was it?

That sounds awesome but I have the sneaking suspicion it might be impossibly expensive. Oh well, still good to know such thing exists as a career in auto restauration 👍.

 

[Duphman]

After the raffle, the awards will restart and we will finally be able to see what was chosen for Gran Turismo 6.

WE HAVE RESTARTED.

 

[ildd]

I wish I could throw out $1000 to see Jay Leno's garage.

 

[Panoz]

Starting off with 911s.

 

[GranTurismo916]

That 901 is just great.

Edit: The RSR Martini should have won 1st in that class.

 

[CarBastard]

This racing Porsche class makes me want to cry.

**** you EA, **** YOU!

 

[Suzumiya]

DO WANT DO WAAAANT!!!!

I think I'm gonna cry seeing the class winner for the Porsche Competition Class...

 

[ildd]

Wow I realllllllllllllyyyy wish that Porsche 935 could make it to the game.
Even if it's on the PS4...

 

[SCER]

I'll happily have a nice BMW 507 please Kazunori.

 

[GranTurismo916]

If we can't have a 911, then let's go with a 507.

 

[Duphman]

Whoa, first Alfa in existence. Think about how lightweight and fun these cars would be to drive!

 

[Suzumiya]

The Chairman's Trophy car, what's it called?

 

[GranTurismo916]

The Chairman's Trophy car, what's it called?

The Benz 105 HP Prinz Heinrich 2 Seater. (I've been keeping a list of these cars since about 5:30 PM EDT.)

 

[Jordan]

Looks like I'm going to have to step out before Kazunori's award is presented.

Could I ask a favor of the rest of you watching, and take a few screenshots of the stream when the trophy is handed out? It'll be nice to have some photos on the blog of the actual presentation.

 

[Panoz]

Indy Roadsters!!!!!!!

 

[Suzumiya]

One of these better be a double winner car! I love the old fashioned indy cars!

 

[ildd]

1963 Watson
dear god

 

[G.T.Ace]

Damn, the Watson! Awesome!

 

[Duphman]

I will see that I can.

Will do boss, I don't promise the most amazing of qualities though 👍.

I can do that.

 

[Suzumiya]

Haha, poor guy trying to kickstart the motorcycle.

 

[G.T.Ace]

Will try to get some too.

Nice bikes, but the Watson was mind blowing.

 

[ildd]

I believe "Greg Winton" either won best of show or the polyphony award
