Gran Turismo 7: Latest news and discussion thread

[Lomic]

Until/unless there's a good reason to accept that this is an official Twitter account, it should be viewed with appropriate scepticism. After all, there's a lot of very dedicated, well-meaning nerds out there.

You're right. But the content posted by this user looks really legit. And other very official looking accounts are tagging him (like
@mondialdelauto )

I've mailed them to be sure.

Aren't you one of them? 😉

Yes, though I don't pretend to be someone else all that often...

Apparently Musee Matra says that PD scanned the Renault Espace F1 last year.

Curious where this would land as far as performance in GT7, IIRC it's basically a F1 engine and chassis with a modified van body which means it may be similar to the Escudo which is in limbo between Gr.3 and Gr.2.

All I want for christmas...

... is some new damned tracks.

I’m thinking one of these :

• AAR Eagle
• Reliant Robin
• Ford Falcon, Thunderbird
• Buick Skylark
• Cadillac Blackwing
• Plymouth Road Runner
• Eagle Talon
• Nissan Bluebird
• Studebaker Silver Hawk
• Stutz Blackhwak
• Toyota Tercel

Did I miss any?

Pontiac Firebird

It wouldn't be grouped, 800BHP is far too powerful for Gr.2 but it's still a silhouette racer (albeit a really weird one) so it's not eligible for Gr.1, which is currently exclusive to true prototypes (and VGTs).

Pontiac Firebird

Another one? Well, PD do like doing cars two by two.

Well, I think it’s a possibility. Although this Firebird is only in the Scape, I can’t see PD just letting this one go without modelling it.

Similar to how the 500 E is in the datamine. I mean, it may not be this particular 500 E, but it is weird this car just happens to be in the shot.
