Why are some people so obsessed with the Toyota GT-One? I understand it was in GT2 but is nostalgia the only reason for this curious behaviour? I mean, I played all the GTs, from the 1997 original to GT7 and I never felt this magnetism towards a particular car from a previous game.
Great memories but that's it.

I don’t recall ever driving the TS020 before in a Gran Turismo game so finally being able to do so after all these years is definitely a nice feeling. However it was only in the time trial where the car had a power restriction and a weight increase so I wasn’t getting the full experience!😹 Anyway if you jump on the throttle too soon exiting slow corners it will bite but on the whole I am satisfied. Unlike the Urus which is absolutely hideous and a total waste of 300,000 credits. Never sold a car soo quickly. Happily the R8 proved to be a surprise as the driving experience was more enjoyable than I expected. Full tuned it’s devastatingly quick and one hell of a thrill.

Serious question: Why some of you buy the GT-one multiple times? Is it to sell them for more in the future?

I can only speak for myself but some people like myself have an attachment to the older games and having some of the cars from the early games like the GT One, Tom's Castrol Supra, the Escudo it just brings back memories from when I used to play this game with my brothers and nephews. For me especially one of my brothers passed a few years back so anything I used to do with him holds a special place in my heart so again speaking for myself that's why I really enjoy seeing these cars from previous games

A vehicle "sucking" can be independent of it being fast. You dropped 1500 lb of weight, added 150 hp and used RH tires. And it's AWD. Doesn't get much easier to win with than that. You tuned the vehicle to the point where it shares almost nothing with an actual Urus. Apply those settings to the minivan or wagon and you'll get the same results. Strange argument.to those who said the Urus is the worst car ever. Some of your opinions are so comical. This was my first race with the car on hard difficulty and I made no adjustments to the Suspension, LSD, Downforce, or Gearbox. I could have gone full power on this race because there was no PP limit but I reduced power to have the car under 700pp.

Quick question though, have never done any grinding for a car, but I need to now since the GT-One is out. What are the best races to grind credits on? Thanks for any answer, can't wait to get it tonight!

I've primarily done the Tokyo WTC 600, although it's not exactly beginner-friendly.Quick question though, have never done any grinding for a car, but I need to now since the GT-One is out. What are the best races to grind credits on? Thanks for any answer, can't wait to get it tonight!
But with the right car, and patience, it pays out well. Similar payout/duration.
If you haven't done all the circuit experiences, this can be the quickest way to get credits.Quick question though, have never done any grinding for a car, but I need to now since the GT-One is out. What are the best races to grind credits on? Thanks for any answer, can't wait to get it tonight!

This. Basically anything that's not races will pay out nicely.
Edit: Alright then 😅
Also, forgot to say, since lowering the difficulty doesn't affect the payout, Tokyo should be a piece of cake, as long as the car is adequately tuned. Just need to avoid hitting the AI or going off the track in the last hairpin, to not lose the Clean race bonus.

That's why i said "IMO" didn't I? It's fine that you think it's an awesome car, but i disagree, even if it's objectively fast & impressive. The fact that it shares a chassis with the Cayenne doesn't help either, because that is my current favourite Performance SUV.
I also did say it was because of owners but also because it's ugly. No one is denying that technically, it's impressive. But i don't think it's a good looking car. You can do some crazy stuff to a Multipla and make it lap the Ring in 5 seconds and i will still call it one of the worst cars of all time.
And hey, maybe i'm wrong. But it will always be my own opinion.
Besides, i never complained about free content. I'm sure there's some people who will enjoy driving it in the game. Just not me brother.

For the GTP account, it's so I can keep one as a garage queen and easily see any PP changes, a second right away so I can drive a stock one around, and eventually a third so I can tune it.
I was expecting 8 figures to match the BMW/McLaren F1 GTRs (and the road-legal Porsche 911 GT1).
That error has shown up in the "known issues". The clock is ticking for a hotfix because the full-season GTWS will start before a regular April update.

"It’s perhaps a little unexpected to see it slot into the Gr.2 class, given the ’99 car’s huge pace advantage over the CLK-LM and McLaren F1 GTR that also occupy the category."
That's not quite true, the CLK-LM and F1-GTR with GT-One competed at almost the same time and under the same regulations, and Toyota's speed advantage is minimal, but you forgot to mention that the Japanese GT500 Class1 cars in Gr2 match the LMP1 prototypes in terms of pace.. Don't take this as a preconception, it's just that most people greatly underestimate the GT500-Classe1 cars, and their pace matches the LMP1 prototypes and they are faster than current Hypercars...

Yeah I know, but custom races don’t give the monthly reward cars from open class and featured tour. It’s absolutely pathetic that this “build from the ground up” reworked singleplayer career is BY FAR the worse I have seen in any racing game.
