Here's a fun little game for you lot - get a Civic Touring Car, set the front ride height to the lowest it will go, then take it to a circuit.
It. Literally. Will. Not. Turn.
In fact, numerous cars are unable to fully turn their wheels once you minimise their ride height, but none to this extent.

I have 2 theories as to why we still can't sell our cars:
1. There is a genuine issue wherein selling a car from your garage will remove it from your collection. PD haven't managed to find a solution that allows you to sell cars without reducing the number of cars in your collection.
2. PD intentionally withheld the feature to push microtransactions. They didn't want people to make a quick buck by selling cars like the previous games, so they decided to implement a "collection" feature to ensure that no-one could sell their cars. However this doesn't explain why you can't sell a duplicate that you bought intentionally.

Known "feature". Polyphony decided that steering angle should be restricted so that the wheels do not foul on the bodywork at low ride heights. It's arguably graphically preferable to just letting the wheels clip through the body, but the lack of the sort of feedback that you'd get in the real world (scraping and rubbing noises, smoke and burning smells, feedback through the steering wheel) means that it ends up looking like a bug even though it's technically a more realistic representation.
And because cars have dynamic ride height when they're just driving around, if your ride height is right on the limit you can brake hard and suddenly find that you can't steer as the nose dips. It's not great, and the "realism" it adds probably isn't worth the amount of people who have just been frustrated by this. Games are supposed to be fun, after all.
It seems implausible that Polyphony's original solution to tracking collection level is so janky that professional developers can't figure out a way around this issue in six months.
I mean, it does. If I channel my inner business executive, I think I'd feel that selling duplicates would result in less credits that the player would potentially want to buy from the store. Any source of additional credits is potentially competing with MTX. Deleting them is fine though, as is encouraging players to buy 10 of the same car (which is honestly just a really weird trophy outside of the context of MTX).

This might be what Nenkai implied since he said selling cars wouldn't be a straightforward process. Also, there is the factor of the game's scripting language being redone (from Adhoc to Swift[!]).

I really miss the old 1-2 minute update trailers PD would make for GT Sport. I get why they're cut down to just 30 seconds now (TikTok and its consequences), but the new trailers just don't do it for me.
To this date, nothing will top the hype of the build-up to the Supra's return in the January 2018 trailer. Although the build-up to the W08 in the July trailer definitely came close.

Because there's only 30 seconds worth of content compared to GTS updates?

I have way too many duplicates. I hate it when I buy it and then I "win" it in the stupid 4 star or 6 star ticket.

I have an engine-swapped MR2 and would like to have another one with the stock engine. However the car is currently unavailable at the UCD. Is there still a way to add it to my wishlist? I'd like to be notified when it's in stock again.

Eifer was my reason to buy PS3.
But don’t await it before GT8 whenever it arrives..

I have two questions.

I do hope they fix the WTC 800 and Gr.1 Prototype Series races to be not as crushingly hard. I also hope they fix the latter to not have two Inastrozas and to actually limit it to Gr.1 cars. I think recently, they did change the regulations for the Alsace One Hour, where it used to be limited to 450 PP or less, and now it's 460 PP. (Or was it always 460?)

You'll be wanting the Daily Races discussion thread:
GT7 Daily Race Discussion
I'm finding mid afternoon Race B to be a curious mix. Apparently, it's ripe for B-rated drivers who are really quick but slightly dubious on the race craft side of things. There's really no need to be pushing through sector 1 at the beginning of the race, I end up losing touch completely with...
