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).

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.

That doesn't really qualify as "the latest LMH" as the team withdrew at the end of 2023.

I don't know if we need a slightly updated GR010, especially since we've been getting liveries for it via the TGR Cup that reflect its yearly appearances. Similarly, I don't think the Vanwall and IF are necessary at all. Otherwise, I'm fully on-board with every other racer you've mentioned, plus the upcoming Ford entry.
Honestly, I'd also love to see Cadillac and Acura become eligible for the Manufacturers Cup, and the latter could have a Gr.4 version of the new Integra Type-S alongside a Gr.3 version of the exclusive NSX Type-S, which does seem to look notably different from the 2nd-gen NSX that we already have.
Ah, but I suppose I had a lot to say about Gr.1, like how as far as Group C racers go, I'd really just want the Peugeot 905 and Toyota TS010, with the latter effectively completing the "TS" line, aside from the TS040. I'd take it over the return of the 88C-V, even.
Anyway, to predict the next update? I'm glad we got a Group C-themed Extra Menu, and on the subject of Le Mans, we could end up getting an Extra Menu based on the three 2016 LMP1 racers we have, too. But personally, I'd much rather see some Extra Menus focused on designers or design houses, like Giorgetto Giugiaro and/or Pininfarina. I also do wonder if we still could get a Bonus Menu focused on the F3500-A? Though I suppose the likeliest time we would see that would've been with this latest update.
Very interesting to see nine new engines this time instead of five or ten, too - and I'm still holding out to see more swaps for some engines that can only go into one car, like those from the Corvette C6 ZR1 and the Aventador SV. I would be quite surprised if the latter never ends up in the Countach LP400, seeing how it can also go into the Countach 25th Anniversary. And the LS9 from the C6 ZR1 could totally go into another, older GM machine, like the Pontiac GTO Judge, or maybe an older Cadillac if we end up getting one. (Could be especially cool if we get a '57 Chevrolet Bel-Air and it ends up in that!)

Feel free to shut me down Famine cause this feels like its getting off topic.. I slightly retract or modify my statement on the LMH? I think I fell off the path somewhere way back but these cars aren't what I thought they were lol They just seem like LMPs.
I thought there was going to be a class that was like production based? Kinda like the old GT1 class? I thought the Valkyrie was one and then Porsche had something (some crazy road car they were building, like a follow up to the 918 or they were actually going to use the 918) and then I thought Ferrari had something that was based on whatever like the new tent-pole road car was. I don't know what its called. The follow up to the La Ferrari. And Mercedes had the One.
Is that a different class than LMH or is that idea gone? Since these are so different than what I thought, PD might add 1 of these with an endurance patch.
