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

The Gran Turismo World Series 2024 World Finals in Amsterdam has revealed another new car is heading to Gran Turismo 7 soon, with a second unique vehicle based on classic Formula One machinery...

The January update is starting to look juicy🔥🔥

 

[danimac]

Okay didn’t see this coming. Really cool. Can’t wait to drive it.

 

[Nebuc72]

That's what I thought the reward for watching Nations would be instead of the Hyundai! I like a sudden event reveal a lot more though.

 

[GTP_reddevil]

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.

GT3's F094 anyone? Great liveries incoming next year!

That was my first thought, Polyphony 001 for those of us in Europe.

Ya let hope we get some old school f1 tracks with the update, or at least rain at interlgos

 

[Normalaatsra]

I guess the 1500T-A wasn't a stand-in for the loss of the Lotus 97T after all, the reveal of this implies the 1500T-A was all part of a plan to cover generations of formula cars.

So, when are we getting a GT original stock car to slap decals on it? The online lobby's default stock car (Silvia TC Gr.4 with wing changed) still doesn't fit it for me.

That’s dope.

Though I was open to that idea, Forza '23 getting NASCAR back makes me feel that NASCAR Next Gen cars are also "never say never" too for GT. (Also probably an opportunity to put some NASCAR legends such as Earnhardt's 1998 Daytona 500 winner in LCD.)

I wonder if the actual Monaco GP course could appear, and with rain too? I know it's basically a parade with modern GP racers but I heard it was more fun to watch in past years. That said, I just don't know how it'd fare for online racing. If not Monaco, then I'd be very content with various other GP circuits - both current and historic - such as Kyalami, Montreal, or CotA.

I'd much prefer the NASCAR Camaro that raced at the LM24 more recently, if only because it's a NASCAR with aero and lighting that allows it to race on more than just ovals. We also could use Indianapolis - alongside its infield layout used by IMSA - as far as oval racers are concerned.

 

[StealthVel]

See that's what I always loved about GT Sport, getting to see upcoming content in a sneak peek during the live events.

 

[RobertHammer]

Welcome back 🔥

 

[MisterWaffles]

Dang... gonna buy a few more MP4/4s, a bunch of these and a bunch of the 1500T-As and have a custom race F1 championship...

Also the datamined Bugatti Type 37A will cover the 1920’s. Preceding the formation of F1 of course but still an open wheel grand prix racer.

 

[VXR]

I only just decided to make the F641 on the 1500, but of course, it didn't look right in the slightest. This is a lot more suitable. Will also be making sure I have the Jordan 191 sorted, too.

 

[Fruitcake]

Will also be making sure I have the Jordan 191 sorted, too.

Such a beauty

 

[Scuderia Paul]

Excellent! If PD cannot, or won't, bring licenced F1 cars to GT then these Gran Turismo branded ones are perfect. They just need to continue to add others from different eras and we will be a far happier bunch. The existing Ferrari F1 models could have a rebranding surely too.

What a pleasant surprise this is.

Need a Ferrari 641

 

[Dbwasson]

I plan on making a good itasha livery for this one… another Sailor Moon one except it's one of the sailors that's actually canonically a racing driver

 

[Talon16]

The liveries - and the grids - for the inevitable daily are going to look amazing.

Definitely be a LCD car, I just wait to see how much.

Edit: Take back the above since it's not a licensed "real" car.

 

[Nakano219]

As a bonus positive, with this and the Hyundai both announced, the inevitable January prediction thread should have 67% less gratuitous wishlisting!

 

[Sum1s2pid]

Nice! Can't wait to paint it and fly off Eau Rouge backwards into a wall. 😮

 

[ZEE]

Very cool, I didnt even really notice this in the 2nd race at the Nations cup, but welcome to try come the january update, as I love old F1 cars liek these.

 

[Pilot625]

So glad they aren’t introducing a new track like Silverstone which was a feature in the Gran Turismo Movie. That would be horrible. Please more mom cars and fake F1 cars.

Ugh…

 

[audikiller008]

I wonder when The AAR Eagle that won the 2018 Gran Turismo Trophy is coming to GT7 or maybe there saving for GT8.​

 

[Theufcveteran]

This is awesome. I really hope they do 00, 2010s, and 2022 style cars as well. Or the former and the latter. A modern F1 car is badly needed although the Super Formula cars do a good job of bridging that gap.

 

[fifaburgio]

I see this to make 🙏 👍 👍 👍

February's will now have 67% more as a result
