F1-Inspired Gran Turismo F3500-A Revealed at 2024 Gran Turismo World Finals

[Reydawg Rey]

I feel we’ll be seeing some fun F1 generation-style custom races/championships from players soon!

I hope more like this emerge - this means that we’ll have an F1 car from:

• 1950’s (Mercedes-Benz W196 R)
• 1960’s (Honda RA272)
• 1980’s (GT F1500T-A & McLaren MP4/4)
• 1990’s (GT F3500-A as shown here)

Just need from the 1970’s and then stuff from 21st century and we are golden! I wonder if anymore cars will emerge like this soon - probably not but you never know.

Just imagine if they gave us the ability to change liveries on all cars on the grid without having to buy multiple cars for custom races? All authentic races would be much easier to set up.

If they add a modern F1 car, I’d imagine it’ll be called something like the F1600-T/A Hybrid

We had the Mercedes W08 in GT Sport, didn't we? They could bring that back...

 

[SpeedRacerGo]

oh nice! very very nice!

 

[L8 Apex]

On that topic, I've also thought of potential generic AOWR car ("F2650T-A" for a 90s one, for instance).

With selectable high- and low-downforce aero packages. Imagine a fleet of these screaming around Blue Moon Bay...

 

[MoLiEG]

Wow. I did not see that one coming.

Many, and I mean... MANY cool liveries are coming.

 

[jrbabbitt]

For some odd reason I just don't see it coming because "no official confirmation" , A lot of dreaming and speculation but no confirmation.
retracted erroneous statement...

 

[Famine]

Of... what?

We've seen the car in the game, they've used the car in the game on the broadcast, and one of the contracted Gran Turismo World Series presenters said it's coming to the game "relatively soon".

What else would you like confirmed?

Ok i am corrected and will retract my error....

Really not interested in another fantasy car. Oh well, onwards and upwards.

It's at best an unlicensed Williams FW14 just as the F1500T/A is just an unlicensed Lotus 97T, hardly " Fantasy" in the same way most of the Vision GTs are. Besides, it's coming alongside the Hyundai Ioniq N so it's not as if its the only car in the January update.

 

[tankuroded]

I wonder if the F3500-A's engine will also be an engine swap fodder in the future, in attempt to reference Espace F1 as many times as possible...?

Maybe I'm harsh but for me any unlicensed cars equate to fantasy. Just the way I see things. The Ioniq N is fine since it's a fully licensed car.

 

[SpiderDemon]

It sounds like a V12 for sure, a V10 produces a tenth interval dyad that sounds completely different.

 

[BrunusCL82]

I'm very pleased with PD for bringing back one of the classic GT3 monopostos. I really prefer them to be generic so there are no restrictions on use.

Earlier this year I had made this post.

The Gran Turismo Car & Track Wishlist Thread...

By the way, Donington Park is a fantastic circuit. I believe PDI would have no difficulty adding it to the GT7. Its landscape is not difficult to work with and Donington's licensing is taken care of by the same company that takes care of Brand Hatch (if I'm not mistaken). Yes all are owned by...

I hope PD brings more generic F1 cars from the 90s, as was done in GT3 and also from previous and subsequent years.

And the important thing is to say, we need grand prix circuits, perhaps Imola and Silverstone.

This is a real neat amalgam of some ‘92-‘93 F1 cars. Going to guess…

A Williams FW13-inspired exterior, with the 15,000 RPM V12 engine of a Ferrari F93A, the steering wheel from a McLaren MP4/7A and the dashboard straight out of a Minardi M192.

I can't work out what the dash is from though.

Found it!

Is this panel from Minard? Does anyone have videos of the sound of this car? Because I found it very similar to the Williams from 91 to 94 (especially the Williams that Senna hitches a ride with Mansell) but the front wing is from the 1994 Ferrari.

This panel certainly appeared similar on the Minardi, yes.

As for the F3500’s sound, I think it’s easiest to hear the engine from the onboard cam, that V12 howl is distinct.

 

[fifaburgio]

Surely you want Mansell's red 5?


The Tyrell P34 6-wheeler would like a word...

Or the Brabham BT46 (Fan car) though Bernie would probably charge Kaz for it

Senna 2# ore Hill 0# doesn't matter

Thank you very much for posting the video. The car sounds like a V12, and it seems very Williams-inspired to me. The sound is incredible, even though the narrator never shuts up. But you could hear the beautiful symphony.

There are so many talented dudes out there and they will recreate one of the greatest F1 eras!!!
This car was one of my most requested car for GT7!!

Now... it transpires that this is an off-the-shelf item from Bosch and already appears elsewhere in the game...

... though with different numbers on the tacho.

 

[05XR8]

That was the first thing I noticed about the panel.

 

[RACECAR]

How far off would I be in saying that these Panels were kinda popular in the Mid-to-late 90s?

Good catch! I fixed my quoted phrasing to reflect that find.

Either way it’s still a nice period-accurate detail on the F3500-A!

 

[Spongeinside]

I thought it looked familiar..
