Just watching the opening video again for the first time in months and it really stands out that all the incredible cars in opening movie aren’t actually in the game! This is what I could see at a glance but I’m sure there’s more lurking in the background (Jaguar D Type for example I think).

Mercedes W25
Porsche 936
Audi Quattro
BMW Group 5
Porsche 917K
Porsche 917 Can-Am
Ferrari 512S
Porsche 935
Porsche 956
Mercedes SSK
Penske PC22
Mercedes W196?
Mercedes 300 SLR?
Alfa Romeo P3?
Auto Union Type C?

Any of these cars would be a great addition to the game.



*The only two I noticed that are in the game was the Alpine and the modern Porsche GTE CAR

Does seem strange showing them and then not including them in the game.

You would think they would have been released into the game by now; though I would imagine too long has passed without any of them being introduced for it to happen now.
 
Not to mention, in the trailers Lotus's were shown but they're not in the final version of the game.

I wonder if PD has these cars planned for future updates......
 
I have a feeling that the Mercedes’ in the garage in opening shots have a chance of making it to the game at some point. The footage looks like something PD may have sourced themselves, which may have allowed them the access to scan the cars. And given that they’ve been able to get Hamilton’s F1 car, I wouldn’t be surprised at all if they’ve been given the access to their classic racers as well.

Has there been a more iconic duo and a more legendary rivalry. We have the track.

I feel like more $20 mil. cars isnt going to make people happy unless its a sad ironic happiness.

I also feel like it becomes a case of more miss-classed cars into Group X...
 
If all those cars came they will be GRx throwing out all potential of such cars being used in the game.

If gt sport cant even get the classes right, gt sport does not deserve these cars.
 
PD sure knows how to create a compelling opening dripping with Liszt filled nostalgia, don’t they? Best part of the game.

Problem is the first half of the video is not indicative of the product within. And if any of those cars make an appearance they’ll be locked behind grind walls. Don’t expect any of them to be less than 5 million credits.

The W25, SSK, P3, and Type C reminds me that the game NEEDS prewar cars now!!
PD, can we at least have the '37 Type C Streamliner return? Or the '15 Model T? Or the 2 1886 cars?
 
I would imagine the contracts PD has with Mercedes BMW Audi Porsche etc allows them to use any road car and any race car in the past SANS advertising on the car itself.

There would be no reason why there isnt a Porsche 911 '73 RS or a BMW M1 or a Mercedes 300sl Uhlenhaut... its just up to PD to model them.

These companies would love to see their histories show in 3d.
