Buying all colours in used and legendary cars

[Met Entso]

This is what I have been doing lately. Is there any list of every car with its colour variations? Haven't been able to find one.

Your best bet is probably Gran Turismo Wiki, although sometimes its data is incomplete/out of date, it should give a good general idea of what paints a car comes with.

Being hosted on Fandom, I strongly suggest you have a good Ad Blocker installed before visiting. Here's a link to their McLaren F1 '94 page for reference.

McLaren F1 '94

The McLaren F1 '94 is a supercar produced by McLaren. It appears in Gran Turismo 5, Gran Turismo 6, Gran Turismo Sport (as part of Update 1.11), and Gran Turismo 7. Nine colors are available for this car: Marlboro White Base Silver Magnesium Silver Mercedes Brilliant Silver Platinum Silver...

If you already have the car, you can go to GT Auto and save a style with a blank livery. Then go to "Load Style", press Triangle, and preview it by clicking the photo of the car. You'll be able to see the colours a car comes with, although it won't tell you the names of the paints.

I thought I was mad trying to get all cars and engine swapped varieties. I paint all my cars in the “country colours” and engine swapped cars are always carbon fibre painted.

Good luck to you on two counts:

1. There must be many variations, more than the garage can actually hold!

2. On accessing Fandom… my lord talk about advertising overkill. I thought my ad blocker was going to catch fire!

Isn't there some kind of fernaggle with the Livery Editor where you can access all the colour variations?

Someone explained just that, 2 posts before yours.... 👀

I just completed my collection today with the F50, as the black F50 appeared in the dealership. However, the shade of black seems off. In GT7, it looks much closer to grey compared to real photos of the black F50. There are three variations of the ‘Nero Daytona’ paint chip, and the other two are noticeably closer to true black than the version used for the F50.

I am doing this with the De Tomaso Pantera only because I think it is so cool looking. Anyway I was wondering if PD bases the colours of these cars on the factory colours they were available in in real life? Or do they make some of them up?

First of all, to each their own. However for me that sounds like a crazy task, not only credits and grind wise but also because of the waiting game.

I'll admit though I have keeping an eye on color variations for a while now mostly because I stopped caring about painting or making up liveries. I'd rather buy and keep my cars with their cool and original paintings, and because of that some cars are always a buy for me. The Civic '93, the BMW M3 '97, the Porsche 911 turbo '80 and the VW Beettle '66 along side the Sambabus are cars I'd like to collect them all.

Sometimes I just sell the car I have in my virtual garage and buy a new one with a color I like.
