My only prediction, Valkyrie LMH

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 ?

I kinda feel like if you name a car specifically, you're wishing. People like to reference the datamined list but its noted that cars on that list aren't guaranteed to be in the game and then you have cars the Ioniq that totally skipped the list. Is it even a reliable source anymore? But I do understand why "wish lists" are forbidden.

A bold choice considering the latest LMH we have is from 2021 (and ironically, so is the latest car in the game from Aston Martin).

Based purely on the the video currently on the GTP news page, and how it looks like it could have been captured from an in game model.

If its what I think it is (Haven't watched the video yet), its probably the renders from the original announcement.

Edit: Yep, that's just renders for the official announcement. Doesn't at all fell like an in-game capture as there far too many similar style reveal from other teams.

See, a cool move PD could make would be to have each of the latest LMH (I'm guessing that means Le Mans Hypercar? I dunno the lingo these days.) I can't remember what each of them is but pair that up with the release of Endurance races? Bam, so much beautiful co-marketing right there. Generate excitement for the upcoming race, the cars, various news sites (outside of GTP) posting some stuff, get this cross pollination going. There's logic in it rather than say, the C-HR.

I don't necessarily care about these new crazy cars but that'd still light a tiny fire in my dusty, cold, black charcoal of a heart. I might even watch a bit of the race!

But I'm guessing that isn't possible as I'm sure the manufacturers/teams of these new cars are currently super secretive about them.

I saw a few original Audi Quattros on YouTube yesterday and I was thinking, that's a rather significant car that this game is sorely lacking. GT7 has added a few historically significant vehicles such as the Citroen DS, Renault 4, Ford Sierra Cosworth, Mercedes 190E Evo II, Honda Civic EF, McLaren MP4/4, Aston Martin Valkyrie and 32 Ford Roadster. We have also received cars that are historically significant in the context of GT, such as the Suzuki Escudo, Toyota GT-One TS020, Subaru Impreza 22B Rally Car, Castrol Honda NSX and Nissan Skyline Super Silhouette. Then you have stuff like the Mitsubishi Evo 8 and 9, which are both build on the CT9A chassis.

So, here's my prediction:

-Subaru Impreza WRX STi '05 (the Hawkeye variant)
-Audi Quattro '82
-Nissan R390 GT1 '98

And for something a little left of field:

-Renault Avantime '02

I got you

LMH - Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR-LMH, Ferrari 499p, Isotta Fraschini Tipo 6 LMH-C, Peugeot 9x8 Evo, Toyota GR010 Evo, Vanwall Vandervell 680

LMDh - Acura ARX-06(IMSA only), Alpine A424(WEC only), BMW M Hybrid V8, Cadillac V-Seriea.R, Genesis GMR-001(currently only a scale model), Lamborghini SC63(currently IMSA only), Porsche 963

That certainly would make big discussion for a Gran Turismo legacy brand launching an up to date race car(including the alt livery no doubt) in GT7. Not to mention having the road car already in the game.
