If there actually is flashing lights for it then I think we can call it new content.

Its totally his fault, its not like Manufacterers don't have any influence on promoting their product
Also, I dare you to say that to the many people who run leagues and actually do use a pace car.

But there is flashing lights for the R34 already, doesn't it?
If so there isn't new content, but if they would let us put flashing lights in any car tho...

Didn't take long for someone to read too much into what I said... I didn't say he was the reason, it's PD's choice to ignore the fans request and go with OEM butt kissing. Praising PD for doing that is not very helpful to us fans now is it?
Right... Because a premium pace car is SO necessary for online racing

"You loved the Frozen Black BMW M4, so have a chrome version of that gold color you see in every image of the car!"
No, seriously. Most of the pics I see of the M4 are in that gold color, a color that's kind of like the one that was on the E46 M3. Kind of reminds me how most of the pics of the M-B SLS AMG I saw in magazines and stuff showed the car in either red or silver.

You say "us fans" as if you, or a minority, represent evetyone. News flash, you don't.

Anything but those flashing lights.
I'm reading too much into your post?
You attack someone for liking a car you don't like and then accuse "People like him" as somehow being the main reason PD isn't doing what you want and you're telling me I'm reading too much into this?
Also, where in the world do people "Praise PD for doing Basically nothing"? Because people are excited over a having a new premium, current Pace car that happens to be the same model of a car already in the game, they are "Praising PD for doing basically nothing"?

Sorry bro, not gonna argue with someone who thinks this pace car was a good thing.
Minority?
People are not interested in GT6 compared to GT5... And GT5 was a failure compared to 3 and 4 (going by sales numbers). So because I play GT6 at least five days a week but think it's inferior to GT5 as far as content goes and the fact that PD puts out a car (nowhere mentioned in the GTP suggestion forum or anywhere) that makes me upset puts me in the minority?
Uhhhh. Ever see the thread on this section? Theres more moaning than you can dream of.

People like you are the reason PD don't like to communicate.

So basically sticking your fingers in your ears and going "lalalala", same thing, very childish.
Minority?
This is completely irrelevant. I didn't directly classify you as a minority but I guess we'll go with it for now.
The point being was that somehow not listening to you, or a minority's request, somehow represents all GT fans. Mind you, this specific part:
GTPlanet is not a full representation of what all fans want. We as a whole on this forum are a small portion of GT fans. The Skyline pace car is widely used in GTP series and throughout the GT community. A new one is icing on the cake.
Oh no it's not what you want or some others want! No reason to claim it's useless when it clearly isn't.

So I wonder If additionally to The safety car we will get The " regular" M4 M performance car too

Thanks for that bud as I wasn't aware of that. But still seems PD is stretching the hype on this car a bit long. I love the fact they're letting us tune/customize the regular M4 but still I don't think they're off the hook from lagging with the promised content which had frustrated me... Didn't mean to offend/attack anyone personaly just venting out my frustration at what PD has been giving us lately as "content"

Tbh they should have made the current Pace Car (the R34) Premium, before adding this one.
Furthermore, the R34 Pace Car had purpose, by featuring in license tests for Gran Truism Concept and GT4 (in the form of lap guide runs). Those types of license tests were then absent in GT5 and 6, completely removing the purpose and function the car previously had, and now PD have gone ahead and made a Premium Pace Car, which will have a role no different to the standard Pace Car that they could have upgraded in the first place?

TBH id would rather have GTR Pace Car, like this one:
But then again its another GTR, so kudos to PD for not adding another GTR.

Fair enough, something other than a GTR
But the main paint to what I said initially, was that I would have much preferred them fixing the quality of current cars, before adding in new ones...
And this car deserves some premium love:

The reason why I sold my M4 originally was to due the fact that nothing could be done to it. I'm buying it back now.
