Not in gameplay, lol:

Above is the Bugatti teaser from their Twitter. As you can see above, pointed out first by @Solo , the pit crew has a GT logo on their back. Is Bugatti finally enter the VGT like the previous MINI?

If you still dont get the hashtag, it resembles an EB in the middle, a short for Ettore Bugatti which is the companies founder. Previously Bugatti has launched a supercar called the EB110. Since the Veyron is now discontinued, will the VGT became the concept of the next hypercar, the Chiron? Speculate.

The other picture, the video, and the news.

I think it's just a coincidence. Bugatti seems completely focused on teasing the Chiron & going beyond what the Veyron did, not creating a fantasy hypercar for a video game at the moment. Couple rumors claiming the 2 cars at LAX were recently shown to a few buyers (like the F12 VS was).

Then again, the "imagine" could also be a play on words.

 

[Aphelion]

Yeah, the pit crew has GT logos on their backs? Well then...

 

[Panoz]

I could see Bugatti do the same thing that Toyota did when they unveiled the FT-1.

With the Chiron's official appearance on the horizon, will the car be added to GT6 once the car is finally unveiled.

Also the artwork teaser from Bugatti shows a pitcrew, a odd thing since Bugatti hasn't had a factory motorsport program since the 50's, suggesting it might be a VGT car based on the Chiron or something completely different.

 

[Suzumiya]

I think we'll have this car in our virtual hands soon.

 

[trustjab]

EB and GT logo on the pit release board (aka lollipop). This isnt a coincidence imo.

 

[sparkytooth]

It's either a VGT car, or an FT-1/M4/C7/SLS/Ford GT/C6 ZR1 type of deal.

 

[robbyf]

This is going to be something. It may also be hint at gt7 maybe a future cover car, a big VW/Bugatti partnership with announcement would not suprise me.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

@FrzGT good catch you may be on to something.

 

[FoRiZon]

@FrzGT good catch you may be on to something.

No, nor really. Im actually on the GTP news. Its just there is no thread yet.

 

[JER_CREST]

Has anyone thought that Bugatti may unveil their new Veyron successor in Gran Turismo 6.

 

[MrYasser]

This is going to be something. It may also be hint at gt7 maybe a future cover car, a big VW/Bugatti partnership with announcement would not suprise me.

exactly my thought now we get the prototype when GT7 comes out the full production car will be the cover car like what happened in GT5 & GT6 with the Corvette C7

 

[GTPorsche]

It's possible, but the teaser image and the teaser video sort of hint towards a race car of some kind.

 

[robbyf]

That was my thinking as well.
Plus gt5 Mercedes/AMG, gt6 Chevy/corvette gt7 VW/Bugatti just seems to flow and make sense in the series. GT7 needs to be BIG, GRAND and OUTRAGEOUS and what better than Bugatti to set the mood?

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

No, nor really. Im actually on the GTP news. Its just there is no thread yet.

Oh I see, I don't read gtp news unless a new GT is to be expected. Thanks either way

 

[sirjim73]

... soon.

It's possible, ...

Is Kaz at work in this thread...?

Nothing to do with me, but in the news thread there is a comment about there being SEVEN pit crew.

I don't think anything in this photo is a coincidence, my personal opinion is that this is going to be the GT7 cover car, sometime in 2016. Just speculation based on contents of one photo though.

 

[Zlork]

I don't think that this car is a VGT.

Bugatti isn't on the VGT's list on the official site .....

I think it's Bugatti Chiron : http://www.turbo.fr/actualite-automobile/776474-video-bugatti-prepare-officiellement-chiron/ (french site)

 

[Ferraridriver27]

I think it might be a new VGT. Looking at the teaser picture there seem to be endplates connected with that blurry line ( the wing ) on the rear of the car.

 

[AudiMan2011]

My theory is it could be a dual reveal both virtually and in reality for a prototype Chiron.

 

[RACECAR]

My theory is it could be a dual reveal both virtually and in reality for a prototype Chiron.

Same here. Considering we don't know what the final car looks like completely in the flesh, that could be the car in its actual form that's being teased in that picture.

 

[GregOr1971]

Bugatti Chiron "reveal" car or "just" a Bugatti VGT , GT6 or GT 7 ... anyway it is, a good news.👍

 

[GBalao888]

Possible theories:
1. They announce plans to make a Vision car, then unveil the Chiron in real life and probably bring it to GT6 following the unveil (just like how the Corvette C7 made it to GT5)
2. They only announce the Chiron in real life and unveil it in GT6 at the same time and release it as free DLC like the Corvette C7 or put it in GT7 entirely

 

[Brend]

Long shot but maybe...just maybe it's in the cover star for GT7. After all, VW have seemed to love the VGT program and worked a lot with Gran Turismo recently.

 

[DingoDile]

GT7 will be announced at Paris Games Weeks and Bugatti Chiron is the star of game!


PD Please...

 

[ScottPuss20]

A Bugatti VGT? Wow, I'm so hoping that we get something even crazier than the Veyron.

 

[05XR8]

This is going to be something. It may also be hint at gt7 maybe a future cover car, a big VW/Bugatti partnership with announcement would not suprise me.

VW+Porsche+Audi 👍

 

[speeeyskells]

hopefully this might trigger other stuff

 

[super_gt]

VGT"s this great Kazunori vision project will kill Gran Turismo series!

 

[SSQES]

VGT"s this great Kazunori vision project will kill Gran Turismo series!

Thank you for your input.

Anyway, a new Bugatti is good news
