Gran Turismo 7’s 1.53 Update is Coming Next Week

I hope we get to choose the body options with the Merc. That would be super cool. It’s certainly looks like the earlier F1 car but it could be the later sports car version (with two seats)

Someone asked for it here

But anyway you’ll always be negative regardless of what an update brings

I’d pay for good content.

I'm glad GT's finally getting a road Escort as the series didn't get one until now. Throwback to Gran Turismo 2 almost getting one via the 1.8 GTI variant based on the demo versions.

I just dont find ev intresting so for me its hard to get excited for a Porsche mission x

I've got no interest in the Mission X (or the 992 Turbo/Turbo S; especially not this month when FH5 is running a "whoops, all 992s" theme) either, but I'm not so self-centered as to not recognise that other people do.

As I said, when Ferrari unveiled the F80 and McLaren unveiled the W1, a lot of the conversation was around what car Porsche would launch to make the next "hypercar holy trinity" (after the LaFerrari/P1/918 Spyder). The Mission X, revealed as Porsche's own 75th anniversary present to itself - therefore already a landmark car - previews that car, to be revealed in 2025. That makes it significant, and acting like it doesn't because you're not personally gripped by it is conceited.

If an update contained five cars I wanted, chances are that nobody else would be that interested in it. But then it's not about me. Or you.

That’s promising to be a pumped update that’s worth getting hyped for. The Escort? Nice… The 2 Porsches? Even better! The classic Merc?

With that said, the Merc’s most probably gonna be a 20M car. I can bear with that. So long as PD doesn’t change any of the existing methods to earn credits and their payouts.

Aaaaand on the topic of the Merc, I suspect there will be at least one more menu book featuring it added too, although I’m not so sure about the theme, seeing as there are 3 racing Mercs in different categories (Le Mans, GT/Sportscars and now Formula 1), as well as 3 Formula 1 cars in the game now. Not sure if licensing is gonna be an issue for the latter becoming a reality, though. Anyway, really hoping they give a zero-mileage racing car that belongs to the Legends Car Dealership as a gift for completing the forthcoming menu book. Not even a 6-star Car Ticket is sufficient for the credits involved, at least to me.
