Actually the PS5 version is around 113GB for now.
Maybe ps store also add file size for ps4 version to calculation

Well I said months ago that I'd retire GT7, but I thought that was merely smoke and mirrors, until today when I began thinking about how much more fun I had with Sport and so day has come to uninstall 7 until its faults are fixed. But sadly I don't ever see that happening. Some of these faults are so ingrained into the core design philosophy of 7 that they can't be fixed without serious action being taken. Things such as hagerty pricing, dumb roulette wheel ticket system, cars on a wait with your thumb up your ass period. Nah. No thanks. I've given it enough time and ultimately decided to go back to the superior GTS.

GT7 has every M3 generation except the E36 and G81 M4. That’s fewer holes than we find in the Impreza lineup.
There are two obvious Subaru road cars missing. The Group A base models for the Legacy & Impreza. But what’s really needed are Euro saloons & hot-hatches. The Ford Sierra & Escort Cosworth’s, Peugeot 205 GTI, Renault Clio Williams etc.
Gran Turismo has always lacked the everyday euro cars.

This is one reason why I am shelving GT7 for the time being. Each update does nothing to address the problems in this game. A couple of useless cars and a track layout isn't good enough to keep player interest long-term. How about removing car invites, putting ucd and lcd cars into the brand central, fixing multiplayer issues, lobby connectivity issues, fixing time trial no music issue, adding back being paid for hotlapping, and maybe even making special extreme ticket parts and engines buyable in tuning shop. Do these things PD and I will gladly fork over some dollars for an mtx, but until then this game has no chance of being the most complete GT and you lose me as a player and customer...

I still don't really understand why there's no reason to get the later licenses. (That is, beyond the trophies and prize cars.) Maybe there'll be a Bonus Menu that introduces a new championship that requires them? I'm hoping that there'll be a Gr.2 championship that uses the IA license. As for the Super license, we could have a championship focusing on Group C racers, the F1500T-A, the Red Bull X2019, or various others. Who knows? I mean, it's not like these championships will be terribly long like they were in previous games.
I don't have an issue with the things you mentioned in particular, but I had other things that bothered me. I might try other games in the meantime, though I think instead of straight-up quitting GT7, I might only play it every two or three days.

I mean never mind those cars, how in the world are the MkI and MkIII MR2's not included?! Talk about pure driving cars, just...what?
And to hell with Fox bodies, those cars are POSs. There's a reason only newer Mustangs and Camaros are featured in the game. They're actually good cars. 60s - early 70s good, otherwise the older pony cars are crap.

Why doesn't pd add cars like the normal p1 and the c8 corvette? I mean they have a good relationship with those car companies.
At this point is there no hope for the c8 or even the c8r race car?

I'd be fine with the C8 Z06 and the "normal" P1. Hopefully we'll get either the GTE or GT3 version of the C8 through the IMSA partnership.

Don't forget about the poor 720s + GT3 version and the new GT4

Or the Senna, the Speedtail, and possibly others like the GT, Artura, Sabre, and the upcoming Solus.Don't forget about the poor 720s and the GT3 version and the new GT4

Oh, we're doing wishlists again are we?
Of course other brands think that getting people into the heritage cars gets them into considering the brand, especially if they're kids who grow up wanting to buy a car from that brand.
Yeeeeeah, that's not it. Aside from not being the Gran Turismo way (about half the road car list from any previous GT game that actually had a single-player career has been old and slow), car brands want to promote their new and recent stuff and see no value in promoting older stuff; if you happen to get really excited by racing an old car in a game, you'll try to find one in the classifieds rather than go to that brand's dealer to try to buy an entirely different new car.

We have the Alfa 145, A3, New Beetle, Polos, Lupo, 3-series Compact/Ti(remember that?), Cougar(Probe), Focus, Corsa, 106, Cougar, in previous games. It’s just been too long not to have the Sierra and others.
I rmemeber the Cobra in Forza( 3 or 4?). I’d try to make a 5.0 LX back in the day.

I'm going to be a bit bold and predict some things for GT8:
-It will be released no sooner than 2025, for PS5 only.
-Because it will only be on the PS5, it very well may be a lot more robust in some aspects. For example, I think that the cross-gen facet of GT7 is why we don't see oil stains, brake dust, etc. that much on our car, barring the ability to toggle them in scapes. I also strongly believe that some circuits will be able to support more cars as a result of being PS5-only, such as the Nurburgring Nordschleife and Le Mans. Maybe it'll even lead to multi-class racing, but I won't hold my breath on that one.
-The cars from GT7 - including those that are added via updates - will carry over, perhaps barring one or two due to licensing issues. But if they could keep the MP4/4, for example, I'd be very happy on top of being surprised. If not, then I'd imagine the next F1 car they'd use would be one used by either Michael Schumacher or Max Verstappen, as we've already had F1 cars that were driven by Senna and Hamilton.
-I imagine all scapes would carry over, too.
-If there's no new Daiki Kasho songs added in GT7 via updates, then I'd definitely imagine they'd debut here.

Like some other people here I've given up on playing GT7 lately, I just have lost all motivation with it really, may come back from time to time to check the updates though.
On the same time I've bought Project Cars 3 for dirt cheap (despite all the bad press it has) and well, I'm really having fun with it so far !

Here's a question I wonder about that doesn't need its own thread, but I have wifi on my Ps5. I'm too far from the router to be wired. I don't see any great effect, it seems ok when I'm racing, but would being wired make me faster just from the increased connection. My other question is what about qualifying? Yes, you quali on your own but since the game is always online would it affect frame rates or something that would make me slower?

As someone who themselves went from Wireless to wired (Thanks to a ridiculously long cable my older sister brought), I wouldn't say you'll be faster but you'll find it much more stable and connection to be far more consistent (as opposed to hoping your bars stay at 4 and don't suddenly decide to subtract by 2, That and provided your internet provider is not a horrible mess). As for qualifying, its effectively just offline trails and I never noticed a difference myself so I wouldn't expect to see a huge difference.

I have wondered why the Deltawing wasn't continued in the franchise. It was an oddball at Le Mans and PD seem to enjoy these types of cars

I heard there was some sort of licensing issue with it, even when it appeared in GT6.
