The car wash has been there since the very beginning, so I have no reason to believe it won't be there in GT5...
 
every feature that PD have put in years by years in every gt full version, they always carried on...
thare will be its normal, with addition of new feature... they continue to carrie and upgrade their creation and ideas...
in gt2 they settled the idea of rims... in gt4 they putted it with more feature like wings, spoiler, and wheels of the day..
in gt4 they putted tuner brand... in gt5 this feature will be keept with addition of new and upgraded options...
they never go back with theirs ideas, they always go further...
 
Haha. I never noticed anything except my funds going down.

Same here. I never really used the car wash because I don't think the cars even got dirty. Hopefully cars get dirty, then you have to clean them. Like GRID.
 
I'm hoping that the car wash is put to better use, what I mean is that in GT4 the cars don't get very dirty. I'm hoping for something like a thicker layers of muck near the bottom of the car.
 
I believe that the car wash helped the cars' downforce. And I believe it's going to be in GT5 as well since it has been in the GT series since the very beginning.

Yes, and where the muck affects performance, more drag, so you will clean it, like on the previous games with an oil change. The car wash may finallly be a useful feature then.
 
Hopefully we'll be able to use the car wash after driving in that rain PD better include. I mean, downpours are bound to get water stains on that nice paint unless you wash it off!
 
I remember oil changes added a few HP to older cars, great idea hope they keep that one. Maybe they could include fuel filter changes, air filters and others, not just to enhance performance but just to deepen the experience, not that it has ever not been deep enough.
 
Car wash marginally helped performance (+3% downforce/aero) if i remember. And cars' paint did become dull after a while; washing the car gave it back its NIB shine back.
 
Well, damage will most likely be in GT5, and the car wash might be able to as such 'cure' it.
 
i just hope they change the car wash to be more realistic- the car spinning was really annoying- made me feel like i was being hypnotised.

a drive through wash like GTA IV would be fine.
 
no tvc i meant what is car wash, i didnt mean you were getting confused. this is my first gran turismo game.

Oh. I see. :ouch:

I heard it adds like 2 HP or something but I don't think it really does anything... It is basically something you go to on the menu and it spins your car around and says it is washed.

i hope not!!!!!!!!!
car wash must clean the car, about damage i want that people must pay many money to rebuild scratch, its also an opportunity to help less money in cash,
 
Epic thread! 👍

You really had to make a whole thread about weather or not the car wash will be in GT5 or not? Boy o' boy...
 
if you think about it, there really hasn't been a need for a carwash, because even after the LeMans 24hrs, your car really isn't that dirty.... what PD needs to do is keep the car wash, and make the cars more dirty after the race-ya know the way real cars look after a 24hr race, road grime all over the front & rear bumpers, and maybe even a few squished bugs on the windshield....:crazy:

i wish that were true.. we'd still have Racing Mod.
 
Hopefully it will actualy do something this time.

If you still have GT3 run any car for 20 hours then take the car wash. You'll see that will cars color is brighter. The car wash does work poeple.

Yep, the Car Wash is as much a part of Gran Turismo as well... Gran Turismo! I wouldn't mind seeing PD implement a topless car wash though, that would be fun! :sly:
 
Car Was is actually a very important feature since the first Gran Turismo game.

When your car gets dirty it loses it's aerodinamycs. It can vary up to 10% of aerodinamycs abilities.

You "bring back" aerodinamycs to their default value by washing the car.

It is part of the overall "Ownership Philosophy" of GT series, which later evolved into Oil Change and mileage counter (GT3) and Chasis Refreshment in conjution with mileage for each car (GT4).

Very strange that nobody knows this..

But I guess working reverse lights and livery editor are more important for the philiosophy of some game than subtile references to real-life aspects of car ownage :)

Kidding.
