Fine then...

Please use this thread to make your predictions for, and discuss, Gran Turismo 7's next update.

We're calling it the February 2025 update because... why not? While Kazunori Yamauchi has stated that the updates aren't monthly by design we have grown to expect it. February seems likely, ahead of the game's third anniversary, and it'll probably be called 1.56.

As a quick fun note, there have been 99 cars added to the game to date. I wonder what car #100 will be - something special, perhaps?

Notes:
  • DON'T POST WISHLISTS
    There are no second chances on this because we've wasted too much time with people who want to divert threads from their purpose and we've gone out of our way to give them enough other places to get it out of their system...

    Apropos of that, wishlists go in the Car & Track Wishlist Thread which we made specifically for that purpose:

  • Predictions are guesses with evidence. Given that the entire past history of free Gran Turismo game updates (with one exception) has given us the expectation of the number of cars (single digits) and tracks (one or zero), if you're posting ridiculously long lists of cars and multiple tracks then that's a wishlist. See the first rule. So are lists of brands (multiple) which have never been in the game series before or which have been cut and are showing no signs of returning (coughs Lotus *coughs).
  • bUt We DoN't HaVe AnY eViDeNcE. Sure you do. There's been, like, 27 content updates now. That shows you what volume of content you can expect and what type of content PD is focusing on. Lately it's also been filling in generational gaps of certain model lines and there's quite a few left, but there's been a few surprises in the past, some well-placed cars from our Suggestions forum (hey look, another place to express your car/track wishes!), and some 4K-era upgrades to cars from previous games.
  • Go
 
  • contentious oddball pick
  • sports car or two
  • return to the series
  • race car, likely not of the GT3/GT4/LMH variety to rustle some jimmies
About the baseline we can expect. Therefore, um...
  • 1992 Toyota Sera
  • 1995 Ferrari F355
  • 2020 Shelby GT500
  • PD Oval Racer thing (or a 2010ish NASCAR expy)

I'm very surprised by the apparent enthusiasm for Pikes Peak around here. Wouldn't it just function like a time trial course? Or is it because it was supposedly scanned and thus a more realistic fantasy?

If that's the case, where's my Isle of Man course? lol
 
I’m going for 6 cars this time which may be far-fetched but at this point based on the hype of the next update, who knows:
  • Porsche 911 Turbo S ‘93 - datamine car and PD will certainly love to keep the theme of Porsche cars going strong.
  • Ferrari 812 Superfast ‘19 - datamine and considering how requested this one is, maybe the time is now.
  • Pagani Zonda Cinque ‘09 - I feel PD would want an older Zonda and considering the reasonable amount of 2000’s supercars, this would fit in nicely.
  • Chevrolet Corvette Z06 (C5) ‘04 - previous premium car and would finally complete the generations of Corvette.
  • Hyundai i30N ‘19 - the relationship with Hyundai is something they’ll want to keep strong and I feel this hot hatch is definitely in the works and perhaps it could be soon.
  • Toyota Minolta 88C-V ‘89 - if the relationship with Toyota is strong then why not, I do see this car appearing either in GT7 or GT8 and it will be another car in the Group C category which in my opinion needs more cars.

Despite the hype, I cannot foresee a track appearing next but hopefully I’m wrong in that regard.
 
Honestly I don't know how anyone can make any predictions without anything to go by...

There isn't a single clue...

At this point, anyone's guess is as good as $0 or anyone's else's....

Anything goes, as long as it doesn't resemble a wishlist, so the wildest of guess is ok, just dont say M5 or PikesPeak or the usual moaning...right Famine...?


Edit:
Feb is a short month ..
Valentine's day will occupy most of us for that quarter of the population who has a significant others...
Winner of this thread is the one predicting the closest outcome?

So I will find out in March ?
