To counter the comment about trucks and SUVs not belonging in GT: Why not? They were in GT4, and isn't the GT series about 'driving simulation'? Give me a very good reason why 'the real driving simulator' should exclude ANY type of vehicle. I hope that eventually utilitarian vehicles like buses, cargo vans, delivery trucks, and such start making a show in the GT series (and yes, I think there should be racing events to go along with them, but B-spec as an option for people who don't want to do the events themselves). I think one of the major selling points of the series is the sole number of vehicles along the wide range of vehicle types. Being able to drive virtually any type of car is one of the great things about this game. There's something for everyone in GT, or at least something close. Why limit that more?

To all you Concept Car haters 👎 👎 👎 👎
I personally love that they are included. I love racing them around in practice mode and I love taking pictures of them. Some of them are pretty interesting cars and most of them look pretty cool. I love the 80s Mitsubishi concept with the flaps on the back....awesome ride!
More Concept Cars, More Trucks, More SUVS, More RACES!

Actually there is a slight difference in the different year of the same model of car. I don't know if this is true for all the cars, but I bought a '97 Civic Type R and after oil change it had 179bhp. I bought a '98 version of the same model and it turned out to have 182bhp after oil change. This surprised me because as far as i know, in real life there is no difference with either versions.
Anytime I see a PT Crusier on the road it makes me want to go Grand Theft Auto on them.Wish I could do a drive-by in the middle of the race.
VipFREAKEvery god damn 🤬🤬🤬🤬 year of the... GTR, NSX, EVO, RX-7, and WRX maybe???
Did I miss any?
Fully agree. Exclude some of those model variations in GT5 would make nice space for some other classic cars and seperate categories . I cant believe they missed out on cars like the Pontiac Transam, Cadillac (FLeetwood) Eldorado, Saabs (all of them), just to name a few cars which were and still are a part of automotive history...

I think they should stop including ridiculous number of versions of cars like the Skyline and like NSX and dozen versions of RX-7. It's like with the Nissan Silvia. I don't want 10 Silvia's. I want the S13, S14 and S15 and maybe a race version of S14 and one race version of S15, and that's it.
The dumb thing about Polyphony is that they put all of these cars in, but no offence, they forget some cars that SHOULD have been there instead of 50 Skylines. Where is Pontiac Firebird? Come on, we get Plymouth Hemi Cuda, 5 Corvette's, we get Mustangs and even like 2 or 3 Camaro's, but not even a single Pontiac Firebird like the most recent version? They put all those Australian Holden/HPV (or whatever it's called) and Ford Falcon cars in there, but they don't put a black 1974 Ford Falcon XB GT (V8 Interceptor from Road Warrior/Mad Max). They put all those BMW 3 series even 320i and 330i, but they don't put in a BMW 850 CSi. Come on.. They put 5 different Ford GT/GT40, yet the GT90 is not present.
And the list goes on. They managed to fit in all these awesome exotic cars like Volkswagen Nardo, Sauber C9 Mercedes, 787B, Peugeot 905 etc. yet how come there's awesome cars from GT2 missing like Vector M12. The Vector M12 was a friggin sweet car, or Vector W8, or Venturi Atlantique 300 and 400. They put 4 Viper's in there, but there's no red convertible Viper RT/10 from like '94.
I just wish they wouldn't forget about these cars. I mean like how come they forgot to put any Firebird's in there or the V8 Interceptor from Mad Max (esp. if they put in Aussie cars), and no BMW series 8 and no Vector M12?? I hope they put those in their next game.

Like I keep saying, there are so many other cars that they could have spent the time focusing on than giving me a billion versions of the same damn EVO with different powah outputs.
But yes, especially if this a "history of autos" there are Soooooooooooooooooooo many other cars they could have put in instead.

Robin 2223Could you really say that you wouldnt ever want a car in gran turismo!!
......I would hope that there would eventually be a game with every car in the world!!!!!
Not if they're gonna have ****ty organization or no strategy guide that features pics of ALL cars in the game I don't.
Unless you like spending have of your GT4 time going through all the cars.

I think there's an misunderstanding.
It's not because of the different year or variant Skylines, etc. that "other" cars didn't make it in the game. They can't add another car, just by skipping a year whatever Civic. You can't add Firebird in(good choice, btw 👍 ), substitue it for say '99 Skyline. Basis for that '99 Skyline was already there. All P.D. did was to tweak it a little to differentiate it from other year or variation Skylines. To add a Firebird, you are creating a whole new model from a scratch, not to mention the research and test drives of the Firebird.
These different years/version Skylines(etc.) are not preventing P.D. to add other cars. If you don't like certain types of Skylines or Civics, you can always opt not to use it.

From the conception of GT4 they could have spent more time on other cars instead of wasting it on varation of the same car since they touted GT4 as a "History of Autos". That alone should have given them a basis to objectively start on what cars should actually be in the game, not what's easier or what they like.

I do see your point, Vip. However, this game has more cars(even if you exclude the "variants") than any racing game I've played. Aren't you guys little hard on P.D. If I did a better job than everybody else in the industry, the world, and got scolded for not being good enough, I'd p**sed(because I'm a jerk).VipFREAK

They know full well what they want to accomplish(it seems if they are going to create a "history of autos") as well as what the public wants (well ok maybe not
) but since they already know what cars they need it shouldn't be an issue. The only issue is getting it all done and leave enough time to compete it. If they are delays I'd still rather have them than end up getting a ****ty game like with GT4. When I say ****ty it's a bit different compared to other games because GT4's level of a good game IS NOT the same as every other game they have been at a totally different level than everyone else and could litterly be above that if they take enough time and have a clear Objective plan of attack.

I don't know. I still think you guys are excessively hard on KY and P.D., but that's just my opinion.
Peace.
Yeah, I mean we (maybe me
) are being hard but at the same time if there are more people that don't speak up or don't care we're gonna end up with a lot of NFS:U variants. Would you like that? I don't and haven't

I see what you're trying to say, but I feel kind of letdown that amazing exotic cars like Vector M12, Vector W8, Venturi Atlantique 300, 400GT, 600 LM, and stuff like BMW series 7 and 8 which made it in GT2 aren't existing in GT4. Same goes for Viper RT/10, Ford GT90 or like Renault Espace F1, these were all in GT2. I was really hoping to play with Venturi 400GT in GT4 since I played with it in GT2 a very long time ago and it was kind of a sleeper hit. It was MR and really powerful french car, it wasn't that expensive and I just loved it that I had found a hidden treasure. You guys know what I'm talking about?
Anyway, the next GT better have like Bugatti Veyron and Bugatti EB110 and the Mad Max V8 Interceptor in it!

. I think we could go on forever, debating this car should be in, that car shouldn't be in, etc. Personally though, if they had delayed the release of GT4 one more time, I could've lost my mind. 
I think P.D. did an good job throwing in, little bit of everything. Too many Skylines? Well, when you make a racing game that I'd want, I promise I won't complain about the choice of cars in your game.

Amen to that! It would be great to actually race the Streamline or the even the older wagons against some competition!
On topic though, the Mini Marcos should have been the original Mini! And they could cut down on the Skylines...who cares about special colors? The handling is the same, and when you drive incar, like most do I assume, you can´t see the colours anyway, unless you fancy replays...and when the particular car is exactly the same as another, apart from colour, the replay doesn´t matter, as far as I´m concerned.
Personally, I'm not bothered by all the variants of cars. I'd like to see more of them for a wider variety of cars rather than just a few of the japanese types.
The thing is, 56 skylines doesn't mean they could have done 1 skyline and 55 other cars. Putting in a new car from scratch takes a lot of effort. Making a variant of an existing car... especially when its 3D model doesn't change or only barely changes... it's almost free development. Copy, paste, change the name, and alter a couple of stats slightly.
I think this thread is going off course because the question is what cars would you not care to see at all... not what cars would you want to give the boot so that there's room for your favorite.
Personally, I'd rather no have the pitifully slow cars in the game at all. The ones that have like 15 or 30hp. They've added a lot of truly pitiful cars in GT4... especially in the old cars. These cars are not fun to drive. They can't be made fun to drive. You can almost get to the finish line faster on a bicycle.
So basically, I'd rather not see anything that's even slower than a typical economy car. I do like the big array of speeds... even into some of the rather slow cars... they can still be entertaining. But... the ones that can barely move under their own power... come on... they're boring in every way. Especially when they have races that force you to buy one and race it! Gah!
It's just like all the races on the freakin test course they had in GT3. Complete boredom.

I like having one of each generation of skyline. but perhaps they could have only included the GTR models for the R32, R33, R34.

I have to disagree with Skant a bit here... for me the slower cars are every bit as much fun as the faster ones... in fact in some ways, MORE fun... chucking my Daihatsu Midget II D-type around autumn ring is immense fun, tuned up it loves corners, bounces like a suicidal lemming over any corner I hit too wide, and is just a laugh running NOS... not only that but I can deliver the milk in it, too! (joke!)
Getting rid of cars I feel kind of defeats the point of the game... surely the more cars you have to choose from the better? So there's 50 skylines in there... guarantee you, there's someone out there now bewailing the fact that they forgot to add a 51st one, with the bigger door mirrors or something! *grins*
PD is Japanese - it's sold in Japan before anyone else gets it... so naturally the number of cars most likely to be in there are Japanese (over 500 as I recall). Fair enough. If it were American, I'd expect a load of US cars. European, lots of Citroens, Mercedes, Ferraris etc...
My complaint is that I'd like to see less showrooms that hold only one or two cars. Seat, Triumph, etc... C'mon, the ONLY Triumph in the history of UK cars was a spitfire? What happened to the TR-series, the Stag, Herald, and the Dolomite series?
And Volvo? 2 cars? C'mon PD, you didn't even choose a fast volvo? Or a really old one!
I digress... that's my complaint... showrooms with too dfew cars in... as for any car I'd get rid on... only one I can think of...
NISSAN FALKEN*GT-R RACE CAR (2004)
Simple reason? It's the only car I've driven to date where hitting the NOS acts like a brake... and this car costs 550,000!!!

People should realize that for example the 10th Skyline GTR R34 doesn't mean that you have to leave out another car ! The code of these ten cars are basically the same and that's why it simply doesn't matter how many Skylines are in the game ! Those who like them like the variety of GTR's and those who don't like them, well the y don't .... but do not think that one Skyline less would automatically mean that a new car would be there instead ! A car took one PD coder about 2 weeks to design and the 25th Skyline perhaps an hour ! Get that !
And that's why I wouldn't want one car less in GT5
Oh and
This car participates every year in the famous 24 h race of Nürburgring and it is - also for Germans- the most popular car in this race ( votings )... And who cares about NOS ? No real race car has NOS, that is just something for 1/4 mile races...

All these crappy slow useless cars, I mean the cars below like 100 hp. It is not race craft driving a 50 hp heap of **** around a track that u don't have to brake. The game is for racing, I want street cars in there but not 50 hp ones. Even my girl friends crappy Holden camira has 110 hp.
And those stupid old 1hp heaps of **** from 1888 or what ever, get rid of them.
