The article says that Bernal Valverde has joined an esports team.
Valverde has attended GT World Tour events before, including the Americas Final last year (we included him in an article about it), and he'll be attending the New York event, as a Manufacturer Series driver for Mercedes-Benz. He's also a professional racing driver in the Costa Rica Touring Car Championship...
... so I ask again what does this have to do with the update?

Wonder if the middle car could be something like a 80s Mitsubishi Lancer 2000 Turbo? Looks a bit short mind.
Or a Subaru SVX but again not quite right and they wouldn't double Scooby?

I thought their choices for which older models are premium/rescanned were based on what's in the Honda Museum Collection, and therefore easy access? I'm sure I read on here that that's where the specific NSX Type R and Integra Type R came from, with evidence? It's somewhere on old threads.

I've changed PCs since last time I posted that image, so that took way too longI'll let @homeforsummer post up that 1980s coupe image - he's probably got it under a hotkey somewhere

You are constantly saying what ISN'T the car, without seemingly saying what IS the car
Whatever the middle car is, doesn’t seem like it’s a very interesting car.
The true mystery car is the bottom right. Personally, I just don’t see PD adding another GC subaru. It has to be something else - look at that rear spoiler - it’s huge! Way bigger than any OE offerings by Subaru.
Looks like R34 TC to me.

That's exactly how I came about to choose my major in college, by process of elimination....
I wish I knew what car it is...
I was settled on the Lancia Delta S4 until I disproved it for myself...
I don't know what car it is, otherwise it would have said it...
I just know it ain't any of the cars that have been suggested so far, including the Levin, which I doubt...

The P1 hasn't been in a previous GT, has it? Most GT-appropriate variant (i.e. something that has precedent in the series) would be a WRX STi Type R. Same shell, but JDM rather than GB-only.

Man, I was just wondering when a 944 or a 928 would turn up in GT. I guess we need moar JDMs first.I've changed PCs since last time I posted that image, so that took way too long

Silvia S13 / S2000 (1st gen) / AE86 Levin / 3000GT (1st gen) / Impreza STI Version VI
This update is a JDM special:
- welcome to Silvia S13, GTS drifters will enjoy you (a lot).
- welcome S2000, N300 online lobbies will hate you
- welcome 3000GT, the 1st gen (the 5 speeds), you will be heavy, you will be slow, but you will be mine...
- welcome Impreza STI (version VI ?), just my favourite Impreza.
edit: I compare to the AE86 Trueno silhouette update, it's exactly the same profile... but with the AE86 Levin face.

You missed the point of the image, and indeed the post.
Personally I'm pretty sure it'll be the 2001 Subaru Impreza P1 edition.
The bonnet vents, shape of the bumper edges, size of the wing speak P1 to me.
My issue with it being the P1 is the bonnet; there's no evidence of the longitudinal Euro vents and while there does appear to be a central scoop for the TMIC, it's rather understated. The P1's lower lip doesn't seem to be there either.
That's why I think it's this:
Horizontal bonnet vents, no lower lip, slightly smaller scoop, honking great wing.
I have two reservations about that. Firstly, PD already did a 1998 version of the car and put it in GTHD. Secondly, that car had a roof scoop (I think for the whole season in real life too) which clearly isn't in the image.
So a late GC8 Type R is my second choice.
